T1 - Application of the inertial navigation system 3D-self-calibration-method for the minimization of the measurement uncertainty N2 - For the accuracy of inertial navigation systems for indoor localization it is important to get high quality sensor data of the multi-sensor system. This can be realized using high quality sensors or the developed 3D-self-calibration-method for low cost sensors. Based on the calibration procedure of the accelerometer (ACC) and the magnetic field sensor (MAG), the additional integration of the gyroscope (GYRO) leads to a reduction of the indoor positioning error. This improves both the approximation for the accelerometer, the magnetic field sensor and the gyroscope so that the standard deviation of a single sensor is minimized. There are errors in the whole system. To determine these error sources it is important to define the measurement uncertainty. In this paper it is presented that the measurement uncertainty can be reduced by the application of the developed 3D-self-calibration method.

Among the methods for dynamic testing the technique known as 'split Hopkinson pressure bar' (SHPB) has evolved into the most widely used one to exert high-speed straining. The theory behind it comprises simple equations to compute stress and strain. The reliability of the strain analysis can be assessed by digital image correlation (DIC). The present results indicate that the visually observed strain is smaller than predicted by theory.

T1 - Focusing of ferroelectret air-coupled ultrasound transducers N2 - Air-coupled ultrasound has been applied increasingly as a non-destructive testing method for lightweight construction in recent years. It is particularly appropriate for composite materials being used in automotive and aviation industry. Air-coupled ultrasound transducers mostly consist of piezoelectric materials and matching layers. However, their fabrication is challenging and their signal-to-noise ratio often not sufficient for many testing requirements. To enhance the efficiency, air-coupled ultrasound transducers made of cellular polypropylene have been developed. Because of its small density and sound velocity, this piezoelectric ferroelectret matches the small acoustic impedance of air much better than matching layers applied in conventional transducers. In our contribution, we present two different methods of spherical focusing of ferroelectret transducers for the further enhancement of their performance in NDT applications. Measurements on carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) samples and on metal adhesive joints performed with commercially available focused air-coupled ultrasound transducers are compared to measurements executed with self-developed focused ferroelectret transducers.

Die aktuelle Position oder der zurückgelegte Weg wird mittels miniaturisierter integrierter 3D-Sensoren bestimmt. Durch die Integration dieser Sensoren in moderne Smartphones oder in spezielle robuste Hardware sind die Anwendungsgebiete vielseitig. Die ermittelte Position innerhalb von Gebäuden ist dabei für den Kaufmann innerhalb eines Shoppingcenters aber auch für den Feuerwehrmann im Einsatz wichtig. Für den Kaufmann bedeutet es durch gezielte Angebote potenzielle Kunden anzusprechen und damit seinen Umsatz zu steigern. Für den Einsatzleiter der Feuerwehr ist die genaue Position seiner Feuerwehrmänner im Einsatz lebensrettend und bietet damit eine zusätzliche Sicherheit für die Einsatzkraft. Das hier vorgestellte Multisensorsystem, allgemein als Inertialsystem bezeichnet, und das darauf angewendete Verfahren zur Positionsbestimmung wird in diesem Bericht vorgestellt und näher beschrieben. Die systematischen und zufälligen Messunsicherheitsbeiträge des Inertialsystems und deren Auswirkungen auf die Bestimmung der aktuellen Position und somit auf den resultierenden zurückgelegten Weg werden erörtert.

A1 - Köppe, Enrico T1 - An advanced method for pedestrian dead reckoning using BLSTM-RNNs N2 - Location estimation and navigation, especially on smartphones has shown great progress in the past decade due to its low cost and ability to work without additional infrastructure. However, a challenge is the positioning, both in terms of step detection, step length approximation as well as heading estimation, which must be accurate and robust, even when the use of the device is varied in terms of placement or orientation. In this paper, we propose a scheme for retrieving relevant information to detect steps and to estimate the correct step length from raw inertial measurement unit (IMU) data. This approach uses Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Networks (BLSTM-RNNs). Designed to take contextual information into account, the network can process data gathered from different positions, resulting in a system, which is invariant with respect to transformation and distortions of the input patterns. An experimental evaluation on a dataset produced from 10 individuals demonstrates that this new approach achieves significant improvements over previous attempts and increase the current state-of-the-art results even in the presence of variations and degradations. We achieved a mean classification rate of 98.5% and a standard deviation of 0.70 for 10000 different test sequences and an average error of 1.45% regarding the step length. Thus is the best result on the task gathered in the experiments compared with competing techniques.

In this paper, we introduce a concept of a self-diagnostic fiber optic sensor. The presented sensor is to resolve the problems of embedded fiber optic sensors in complex structures and to enable the validation under operational conditions. For this purpose, different magnetostrictive coated fiber optic sensors were developed and various experiments were performed to verify their mode of operation and to determine the respective reproducibility. The measuring principle is illustrated by obtained experimental results, which showed a change in wavelength from 1 pm at a magnetic field strength change of 0.25 mT. In addition, the temperature characteristics of the implemented magnetostrictive sensor were analyzed and an experimental factor of 1.5 compared to a reference fiber optic sensor was determined.

ED - Mignani, A. G. T1 - Modelling and simulation of a fibre Bragg grating strain sensor based on a magnetostrictive actuator principle N2 - A new concept for the self-diagnosis of embedded fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain sensors was developed, simulated and experimentally tested. This concept is based on a magnetostrictive metallic layer directly coated on the fibre cladding over the grating segment of the FBG sensor, so that an on-demand external magnetic field in a millitesla scale can produce a controllable artificial strain as an indication signal for the remote optical interrogator. The relationship between the pre-defined magnetic field and its induced Bragg wavelength shift characterizes this validation concept. Any deviation of the local bonding state of the interfaces from the initial or/and any change of shear strain transferring mechanism from composite matrix to the optical fibre core will result in alterations in this sensitive relationship, and thus triggers an immediate alert for a further inspection. The finite element method is used to simulate the strain of this configuration as result of different values of the magnetic field in order to optimize the geometrical sensor parameters. The simulations are verified by experiments results. © (2016) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE). Downloading of the abstract is permitted for personal use only.

Frühwarnsysteme sollen rechtzeitige Signale senden, wenn Schädigungsprozesse einsetzen, wenn ein Bauteil z. B. zu feucht wird (Deiche, Staumauern), oder wenn Feuchteprozesse in Bauteilen auftreten, die den Transport von schädlichen Stoffen ermöglichen. Mittels handelsüblicher multifunktionaler Sensoren wie einem Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) wurden erste Machbarkeitsuntersuchungen zur Massenfeuchtemessung durchgeführt. Die untersuchten Parameter sind der sogenannte Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) eines Bluetooth-Low-Energy(BLE)-Signals und die abgestrahlte Sendeleistung eines eingebetteten BLE-Moduls. Das BLE-Modul kommuniziert mit einem mobilen smarten Empfänger wie einem Tablet oder einem Smartphone als SmartHub. Die Veränderung des RSS-Indikators ist ein Maß für die Veränderung der Feuchte im Bauteil, während die ausgesandte Signalstärke konstant bleibt. Wenn das BLE-Signal einen feuchten Bereich im Baumaterial durchläuft, verändert sich der RSS-Indikator. Nach erfolgreicher Machbarkeitsstudie wurde nun ein aus dem Netzwerk MI4G (Modern Industry for Germany) zwischen der Bundesanstalt für Materialprüfung und dem Klein- und mittelständigen Unternehmen LinTech GmbH heraus beantragtes ZIM-Projekt bewilligt.

T1 - A contribution to intelligent automatic validation of structure-integrated fibre optic strain sensors N2 - Sensors integrated into devices and structures provide essential data to control, optimize or manage machines and structural components. In the last years, processes, applications and machine parts became more and more intelligent. Consequently, the need for sensor validation increased significantly in order to rely on sensor data and measurement results. Structure-integrated fibre optic strain sensors, such as fiber Bragg gratings (FBG), are of special interest in the composite manufacturing industry. This type of sensor makes it possible to gain information and to collect measurement data about entire production processes and whole life-time cycles of composite-made machine parts and structures. However, validation concepts and approaches for this type of sensors are barely reported in literature. Furthermore, all the reported activities have the drawback that the sensor diagnosis strategy is implemented as limited mathematical models and/or complex time-consuming spectral analysis tools which are applied in data post-processing loops. However, to automate sensor validation and to apply real-time and in-field sensor fault detection, it is necessary to acquire measurement data and information about the measurement reliability at the same time.
