+| My Facharbeit. A short summary in German:
| Die Arbeit versucht einen Vergleich zwischen Rom zur Zeit von Augustus und Amerika nach dem 2. Weltkrieg zu ziehen. Vor allem das Friedensverständnis und die Sicherung der Vormachtstellung beider Großmächte wird untersucht. Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede in der Motivation, Politik, Kultur und den geopolitischen Gegebenheiten werden aufgezeigt. Abschließend wird ein Ausblick auf die zukünftigen Herausforderungen zur Erlangung eines universalen Friedens gewagt.

+My bachelor's thesis. The thesis introduces a variable stiffness actuator with biarticular coupling inspired
+by the human muscular system, which neither requires artificial pneumatic muscles
+nor tendon coupling. When presenting the results of a literature research focused on
+the properties of biarticularity of human muscles, the emphasis is on the advantages
+of energy transfer between joints and the state of the art of biarticular actuators in
+robotics is shortly discussed. Then the presented actuator is modeled and a cyclic
+movement is simulated in order to determine the amount of work at the joints. The
+results are compared to an actuator without biarticular coupling.
