Ihr Fazit: Durch Anstrengungen, das stoffliche Recycling weiter zu optimieren, können künftig weitere Kreisläufe von Produkten und Materialien hochwertig geschlossen werden. Für manche Abfallströme wird dies aber aus verschiedenen Gründen nicht möglich sein – hier bleibt die thermische Abfallbehandlung unverzichtbar.

T1 - Non-sexual abdominal appendages in adult insects challenge a 300 million year old bauplan N2 - Despite their enormous diversity, the bauplan of adult winged insects (pterygotes) is remarkably conservative since the Lower Devonian: a five-segmented head, a three-segmented thorax with three pairs of walking legs and an eleven-segmented abdomen without any non-sexual appendages 1 and 2. The only known exceptions are the abdominal appendages of adult male sepsid flies on the fourth segment; however, these are also used as copulatory organs and are supposedly maintained through sexual selection [3]. Here, we report a rod-like paired appendage from the third and fourth abdominal segments in adults of the Southeast-Asian Hemiptera taxon Bennini (Figure 1A,B; Supplemental information). These are fully musculated, innervated, and movable and bear highly organized sensory and secretory units. The appendages, termed LASSO (lateral abdominal sensory and secretory organs), are consistent in topology and structure in all species studied and not sexually dimorphic. The existence of these non-sexual abdominal appendages reveals the potential of the 300 million year old conserved bauplan of insects.

In contrast to planar electrodes and predominantly 2D designs, the industrially required high current densities can be achieved by intense contact between the gas and liquid phase with the catalytically active surfaces. An essential asset for the knowledge-based design of tailored electrodes is therefore in-depth information on electrolyte distribution and intrusion into the electrode’s porous structure. Lab-based and synchrotron radiography allow for monitoring this process operando. Herein, we describe the development of a cell design that can be modularly adapted and successfully used to monitor both the oxygen reduction reaction and the electrochemical reduction of CO2 as exemplary and currently very relevant examples of gas-liquid reactions by only minor modifications to the cell set-up. With the reported cell design, we were able to observe the electrolyte distribution within the gas diffusion electrode during cell operation in realistic conditions.

This paper focuses on the application of a method originally developed to remove interference fringes in the mid-infrared spectra for far-infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy on thin polymer films. We show that the total transmittance-reflectance technique, commonly used for mid-infrared, also works successfully in the far infrared spectral range where other approaches fail. Experimental spectra obtained by such technique are supported by model calculations and reveal the possibility and limits to obtain almost undisturbed far-infrared spectra which are suitable to determine low energy vibrations of ionomer salts under certain sample conditions.

T1 - Fatigue and fracture of weldments - The IBESS approach for the determination of the fatigue life and strength of weldments by fracture mechanics analysis N2 - The acronym IBESS stands for "Integrale Bruchmechanische Ermittlung der Schwingfestigkeit von Schweißverbindungen" which, translated from German, means "integral fracture mechanics determination of the fatigue strength of welds". the method introduced in this study is the outcome of a German Research cluster in which eight partners were involved. A list of them is found at the end this study. The IBESS method is characterized by a number of partially novel aspects and elements of fracture mechanics applied to the evaluation of fatigue stength of welds. The most important ones are: (a) Determination of fatigue crack propagation for mechanically/physically short and long cracks. (b) Determination of an elastic-plastic crack driving force for the treatment of mechanically short cracks. To that purpose an analytical expression for the cyclic J-integral was developed and validated against finite element results. (c) The gradual build-up of the crack closure phenomenon is determined by using cyclic R-curves which describe the crack size dependency of the fatigue crack propagation threshold in the physically short crack growth regime. (d) A physically meaningful initial crack size is defined for total life consideration. It is based on a two-criteria approach. Based on a cyclic R-curve analysis, the crack size at crack arrest is determined as a lower bound. If, however, a pre-existing crack-like defect is larger than this, its dimensions define the initial crack size. (e) Multiple crack propagation at the weld toe is considered. (f) In conjunction with this, the variation of the weld toe geometry is considered in a stochastic model. (g) As a result, both the fatigue limit (defined for 107 loading cycles) and the finite life (high cycle) fatigue S-N curve are obtained statistically. (h) At various analysis steps, parametric equations have been developed which allow for analytical calculations instead of complete stochastic analyses based on finite elements which are unrealistic even at present. (i) The method has been validated with a large number of S-N curves including two materials, three weldment types with two geometries, each referring to differnt manufacturing technologies and the as-welded and stressrelieved state. (j) Althrough not finally solved, an extended discussion is provided on the issue of welding residual stresses including their redistribution under cyclic loading. (k) A number of simplifications is proposed at lower analyses levels which, however, partly lack complete validation by now.

T1 - The IBESS approach for the determination of the fatigue life and strength of weldments by fracture mechanics analysis N2 - This book provides a comprehensive and thorough guide to those readers who are lost in the often-confusing context of weld fatigue. It presents straightforward information on the fracture mechanics and material background of weld fatigue, starting with fatigue crack initiation and short cracks, before moving on to long cracks, crack closure, crack growth and threshold, residual stress, stress concentration, the stress intensity factor, J-integral, multiple cracks, weld geometries and defects, microstructural parameters including HAZ, and cyclic stress-strain behavior. The book treats all of these essential and mutually interacting parameters using a unique form of analysis.
