T1 - Imperceptible magnetic sensor matrix system integrated with organic driver and amplifier circuits N2 - Artificial electronic skins (e-skins) comprise an integrated matrix of flexible devices arranged on a soft, reconfigurable surface. These sensors must perceive physical interaction spaces between external objects and robots or humans. Among various types of sensors, flexible magnetic sensors and the matrix configuration are preferable for such position sensing. However, sensor matrices must efficiently map the magnetic field with real-time encoding of the positions and motions of magnetic objects. This paper reports an ultrathin magnetic sensor matrix system comprising a 2 × 4 array of magnetoresistance sensors, a bootstrap organic shift register driving the sensor matrix, and organic signal amplifiers integrated within a single imperceptible platform. The system demonstrates high magnetic sensitivity owing to the use of organic amplifiers. Moreover, the shift register enabled real-time mapping of 2D magnetic field distribution.

T1 - Influence of rotor downwash on vertically displaced nanobots in flight N2 - One challenge associated with navigating a nano aerial robot swarm indoors in unstructured environments is, i.a., the limited air space. To avoid an over-regulation of the available indoor air space (e.g., prohibit copters to fly above each other), a safety region around each copter must be defined. In this paper, we investigate the impact of the downwash of a nano-drone on the stability of another nearby nano-drone. In the experiments, we found out that this downwash has a negative influence of a second nano-drone in a distance of around 1 m vertically and 0.2 m horizontally. Based on the obtained data, we developed a model describing the above-mentioned safety region to enable a safe operation of the swarm in these environments with fewer constraints.

T1 - Termite resistance of pine wood treated with nano metal fluorides N2 - Fluorides are well-known as wood preservatives. One of the limitations of fluoride-based wood preservatives is their high leachability. Alternative to current fluoride salts such as NaF used in wood protection are low water-soluble fluorides. However, impregnation of low water-soluble fluorides into wood poses a challenge. To address this challenge, low water-soluble fluorides like calcium fluoride (CaF2) and magnesium fluoride (MgF2) were synthesized as nanoparticles via the fluorolytic sol−gel synthesis and then impregnated into wood specimens. In this study, the toxicity of nano metal fluorides was assessed by termite mortality, mass loss and visual analysis of treated specimens after eight weeks of exposure to termites, Coptotermes formosanus. Nano metal fluorides with sol concentrations of 0.5 M and higher were found to be effective against termites resulting in 100% termite mortality and significantly inhibited termite feeding. Among the formulations tested, the least damage was found for specimens treated with combinations of CaF2 and MgF2 with an average mass loss less than 1% and visual rating of “1”. These results demonstrate the efficacy of low water-soluble nano metal fluorides to protect wood from termite attack.

Combinatory systems, consisting of mobile robots and stationary sensors, can be effective solutions for the coverage of large measurement areas. However, further research is needed to fully understand their performance in comparison to traditional sensing strategies. Therefore, multiple sensor networks layouts will be set up in a simulation environment as well as in real industrial environments. Models for distribution mapping will be developed and evaluated to investigate the performance and opportunities of hybrid-mobility sensor networks for the task of distribution mapping.

T1 - High-quality meets low-cost: Approaches for hybrid-mobility sensor networks N2 - Air pollution within industrial scenarios is a major risk for workers, which is why detailed knowledge about the dispersion of dusts and gases is necessary. This paper introduces a system combining stationary low-cost and high-quality sensors, carried by ground robots and unmanned aerial vehicles. Based on these dense sampling capabilities, detailed distribution maps of dusts and gases will be created. This system enables various research opportunities, especially on the fields of distribution mapping and sensor planning. Standard approaches for distribution mapping can be enhanced with knowledge about the environment’s characteristics, while the effectiveness of new approaches, utilizing neural networks, can be further investigated. The influence of different sensor network setups on the predictive quality of distribution algorithms will be researched and metrics for the quantification of a sensor network’s quality will be investigated.

T1 - In‑situ quantification of microscopic contributions of individual cells to macroscopic wood deformation with synchrotron computed tomography N2 - Wood-based composites hold the promise of sustainable construction. Understanding the influence on wood cellular microstructure in the macroscopic mechanical behavior is key for engineering highperformance composites. In this work, we report a novel Individual Cell Tracking (ICT) approach for in-situ quantification of nanometer-scale deformations of individual wood cells during mechanical loading of macroscopic millimeter-scale wood samples. Softwood samples containing > 104 cells were subjected to controlled radial tensile and longitudinal compressive load in a synchrotron radiation micro-computed tomography (SRμCT) setup. Tracheid and wood ray cells were automatically segmented, and their geometric variations were tracked during load. Finally, interactions between microstructure deformations (lumen geometry, cell wall thickness), cellular arrangement (annual growth rings, anisotropy, wood ray presence) with the macroscopic deformation response were investigated. The results provide cellular insight into macroscopic relations, such as anisotropic Poisson effects, and allow direct observation of previously suspected wood ray reinforcing effects. The method is also appropriate for investigation of non-linear deformation effects, such as buckling and deformation recovery after failure, and gives insight into less studied aspects, such as changes in lumen diameter and cell wall thickness during uniaxial load. ICT provides an experimental tool for direct validation of hierarchical mechanical models on real biological composites.

To detect and localize the chemical trail, a novel detection criterion was developed that uses only relative changes in the transient phase of the sensor response, making it more robust in its application. We tested our setup in first crossing-trail experiments showing that our flying ant robot is able to correlate an odor hit with the chemical trail within 0.14 m.

T1 - Using Redundancy in a Sensor Network to Compensate Sensor Failures N2 - Wireless sensor networks provide occupational health experts with valuable information about the distribution of air pollutants in an environment. However, especially low-cost sensors may produce faulty measurements or fail completely. Consequently, not only spatial coverage but also redundancy should be a design criterion for the deployment of a sensor network. For a sensor network deployed in a steel factory, we analyze the correlations between sensors and build machine learning forecasting models, to investigate how well the sensor network can compensate for the outage of sensors. While our results show promising prediction quality of the models, they also indicate the presence of spatially very limited events. We, therefore, conclude that initial measurements with, e.g., mobile units, could help to identify important locations to design redundant sensor networks.

Instrumented indentation tests using spherical indenters of radius 200 and 500 μ m are performed in the macro range at depths of more than 6 μ m. The results of the selected methods are compared with the tensile test. To evaluate the partially strongly varying results, the uncertainties of the calculated strain hardening exponent, n, and yield stress, Y, are estimated. Recommendations for an appropriated procedure of the indentation test are given. The machine compliance and the determination of the zero point of Depth play an essential role.

T1 - The Finite Volume Method in point of view of Finite Element Method N2 - The best-known discretization methods for solving engineering problems formulated as partial differential equations are finite difference method (FDM), finite element method (FEM) and finite volume method (FVM). While the finite volume method is used in fluid mechanics, the finite element method is predominant in solid state mechanics. At first glance, FVM and FEM are two highly specialized methods. However, both methods can solve problems of both solid mechanics and fluid mechanics well. Since experimental mechanics deals not only with solid state physics but also with fluid mechanics problems, we want to understand FVM in the sense of FEM in this work. In the long term, we want to use the variational calculus to unify many important numerical methods in engineering science into a common framework. In this way, we expect that experiences can be better exchanged between different engineering sciences and thus innovations in the field of experimental mechanics can be advanced. But in this work, we limit ourselves to the understanding of the FVM with the help of the variational calculus already known in FEM. We use a simple 1D Poisson equation to clarify the point. First, we briefly summarize the FVM and FEM. Then we will deal with the actual topic of this paper, as we establish the FEM and the FVM on a common basis by variation formulation. It is shown here that the FVM can be understood in terms of the finite element method with the so-called Galerkin-Petrov approach.

For further improvement of the mechanical properties of such alloys, often, one single ceramic reinforcement phase, e.g. silicon carbide (SiC) or aluminium oxide (Al2O3) in the form of fibres or particles is added. However, hybrid reinforcements (fibres and particles) can further improve wear resistance and fracture toughness, and additionally, reduce anisotropy of the material. The engineering of metal matrix composites (MMC) for specific application requirements benefits from a comprehensive knowledge of the failure behaviour. Therefore, damage evolution under compression was investigated on: - pure near-eutectic AlSi12CuMgNi matrix alloy - type I: matrix reinforced with random-planar oriented Al2O3 short fibres (15 vol.%) - type II: matrix reinforced with random-planar oriented Al2O3 short fibres (7 vol.%) and additional SiC particles (15 vol.%) The analysis of damage mechanism was carried out in two rather independent but complementary studies. First, selected sister samples of every material were exposed to quasi-static compression (traverse control). The compression tests were interrupted at different strain levels. Miniature cylinders with a diameter of 1mm were extracted from the pre-strained samples and investigated by synchrotron computed tomography (SX-µCT) with a spatial resolution of about 0.7 µm. For the pure matrix alloy, microcracks are confined to the intermetallic particles and to the eutectic Si, hence no damage was observed in the Aluminium. The composite type II revealed a more effective strain accumulation (less damage) than type I at low plastic strain (up to 5 %), but a more catastrophic damage development due to cracking of the SiC clusters at higher strain levels. The second approach to study the damage initiation and accumulation in the materials subjected to compressive load was Acoustic Emission (AE) analysis. In this case the in-situ monitoring of the acoustic emission signal was performed during compression tests on specimens with dimension of several mm. For all three material types, AE activity set at 2% strain. Differences in AE behaviour of the three materials was proven based on AE hitrate, signal peak amplitudes as well as weighted peak frequencies (WPF). Future work focuses on combination of AE and SX-µCT aiming for more detailed knowledge on damage mechanism of metal matrix composites.

Im digitalen Zeitalter werden neben Standard-Laborexperimenten zunehmend Modelle und Simulationen eingesetzt, um das Verhalten des Materials unter verschiedenen Belastungen besser zu verstehen und vorherzusagen. Dazu werden Zahlenwerte von Verformungen im subzellulären Maßstab benötigt, die nun in Experimenten an der TOMCAT-Beamline (TOmographic Microscopy and Coherent rAdiology ExperimenTs) der SLS (Swiss Light Source) gewonnen werden konnten: Holzproben aus Fichte ( Picea abies Karst.) mit einem Prüfquerschnitt von mindestens 1 mm² auf Zug oder Druck beansprucht. Die strukturellen Veränderungen auf Zellebene wurden mittels Computertomographie erfasst. Für die nachträgliche Analyse der 3D-Mikrostruktur von Holz wurde ein Ansatz entwickelt, der es ermöglicht, einzelne Zellen, die in mehreren Tomogrammen unterschiedlicher Belastungszustände erfasst wurden, zu verfolgen. Dabei wurden die Zellgeometrien und das subzelluläre Deformationsverhalten quantifiziert.

T1 - Der Verformungswiderstand im Holz und die Rolle der Holzstrahlen N2 - Von den Zellulosefibrillen über die Zellwand und die Anordnung der Früh- und Spätholzzellen in einem Jahrring bis hin zum Balken von Natur aus ist Holz ein optimierter Hochleistungswerkstoff, der Handwerker, Architekten, Ingenieure und Wissenschaftler fasziniert und begeistert. Im digitalen Zeitalter werden neben Standard-Laborexperimenten zunehmend Modelle und Simulationen eingesetzt, um das Verhalten des Materials unter verschiedenen Belastungen besser zu verstehen und vorherzusagen. Dazu werden Zahlenwerte von Verformungen im subzellulären Maßstab benötigt, die nun in Experimenten an der TOMCAT-Beamline (TOmographic Microscopy and Coherent rAdiology ExperimenTs) der SLS (Swiss Light Source) gewonnen werden konnten: Holzproben aus Fichte ( Picea abies Karst.) mit einem Prüfquerschnitt von mindestens 1 mm² auf Zug oder Druck beansprucht. Die strukturellen Veränderungen auf Zellebene wurden mittels Computertomographie erfasst. Für die nachträgliche Analyse der 3D-Mikrostruktur von Holz wurde ein Ansatz entwickelt, der es ermöglicht, einzelne Zellen, die in mehreren Tomogrammen unterschiedlicher Belastungszustände erfasst wurden, zu verfolgen. Dabei wurden die Zellgeometrien und das subzelluläre Deformationsverhalten quantifiziert. Unter Zugbelastung beispielsweise verengt sich die Zellwanddicke um ca. 0,8%, das sind bei der gemessenen mittleren Zellwanddicke von 3,5 µm ca. 28 nm. Diese und andere Erkenntnisse liefern nun einen direkten numerischen Zusammenhang zwischen Verformungen der Holzmikrostruktur und dem daraus resultierenden makroskopischen Verhalten. T2 - 5.

To detect and localize the chemical trail, a novel detection criterion was developed that uses only relative changes in the transient phase of the sensor response, making it more robust in its application. We tested our setup in first crossing-trail experiments showing that our flying ant robot is able to correlate an odor hit with the chemical trail within 0.14 m.

T1 - Super-Resolution for Gas Distribution Mapping: Convolutional Encoder Decoder Network N2 - Gas distribution mapping is important to have an accurate understanding of gas concentration levels in hazardous environments. A major problem is that in-situ gas sensors are only able to measure concentrations at their specific location. The gas distribution in-between the sampling locations must therefore be modeled. In this research, we interpret the task of spatial interpolation between sparsely distributed sensors as a task of enhancing an image's resolution, namely super-resolution. Because autoencoders are proven to perform well for this super-resolution task, we trained a convolutional encoder-decoder neural network to map the gas distribution over a spatially sparse sensor network. Due to the difficulty to collect real-world gas distribution data and missing ground truth, we used synthetic data generated with a gas distribution simulator for training and evaluation of the model. Our results show that the neural network was able to learn the behavior of gas plumes and outperforms simpler interpolation techniques.

T1 - The finite volume method in the context of the finite element method N2 - The finite volume method (FVM), like the finite element method (FEM), is a numerical method for determining an approximate solution for partial differential equations. The derivation of the two methods is based on very different considerations, as they have historically evolved from two distinct engineering disciplines, namely solid mechanics and fluid mechanics. This makes FVM difficult to learn for someone familiar with FEM. In this paper we want to show that a slight modification of the FEM procedure leads to an alternative derivation of the FVM. Both numerical methods are starting from the same strong formulation of the problem represented by differential equations, which are only satisfied by their exact solution. For an approximation of the exact solution, the strong formulation must be converted to a so-called weak form. From here on, the two numerical methods differ. By appropriate choice of the trial function and the test function, we can obtain different numerical methods for solving the weak formulation of the problem. While typically in FEM the basis functions of the trial function and test function are identical, in FVM they are chosen differently. In this paper, we show which trial and test function must be chosen to derive the FVM alternatively: The trial function of the FVM is a “shifted” trial function of the FEM, where the nodal points are now located in the middle of an integration interval rather than at the ends. Moreover, the basis functions of the test function are no longer the same as those of the trial function as in the FEM, but are shown to be a constant equal to 1. This is demonstrated by the example of a 1D Poisson equation.

T1 - Large Scale Exchange Coupled Metallic Multilayers by Roll-to-Roll (R2R) Process for Advanced Printed Magnetoelectronics N2 - Till now application of printed magnetoelectronics is hindered by lack of large area exchange coupled metallic multilayers required to produce printable magneto-sensory inks. Large-scale roll-to-roll (R2R) fabrication process is an attractive approach owing to its capabilities for high volume, high throughput, and large area manufacturing. Precise and high performance R2R sputtering technology is developed to fabricate large area giant magnetoresistive (GMR) thin-films stacks that contain 30 metallic bilayers prepared by continuous R2R sputtering of Co and Cu sequential on a hundred meters long polyethylene terephthalate (PET) web. The R2R sputtered Co/Cu multilayer on a 0.2 × 100 m2 PET web exhibits a GMR ratio of ≈40% achieving the largest area exchange coupled room temperature magneto-sensitive system demonstrated to date. The prepared GMR thin-film is converted to magnetosensitive ink that enables printing of magnetic sensors with high performance in a cost-efficient way, which promotes integration with printed electronics. An average GMR ratio of ≈18% is obtained for 370 printed magnetic sensors. The realized precise R2R sputtering approach can also be extended to a wide range of hybrid thin-film material systems opening up a path for new functional inks applied with printing technologies.

T1 - Development of an analysis and testing concept for the evaluation of impact targets in the mechanical safety testing of dangerous goods packagings N2 - The mechanical and geometrical properties of impact targets greatly influence the outcome of a drop test. The International Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) as well as ISO 2248 describe the characteristics of impact targets for drop tests of dangerous goods packagings. According to these regulations, the impact target’s surface needs to be unyielding, under testing conditions non-deformable, flat, and integral with a mass at least 50 times that of the heaviest packaging to be tested. The problem is that many production facilities, especially manufacturers of corrugated fibreboard boxes, do not have their own testing device with the required 50 times mass ratio of the impact target for a regulation compliant drop test during series production. Furthermore, at UN level it is considered necessary to revise these requirements. In the present paper, the impact target requirements are examined in detail and compared with those in other technical areas (e.g., impact target for container for the transport of radioactive materials). A research method is being developed to investigate the dependency between the mass ratio of the packaging and the target as well as the damage resistance of a drop tested package in relation to specific design characteristics. The results are of high relevance for industry purposes and intended to ensure a uniform level of safety assessment for the mechanical testing of dangerous goods packagings.

Hierbei werden Oberflächenfehler wie Risse mit ferromagnetischem Pulver sichtbar gemacht, wodurch eine qualitative Bewertung des Bauteils ermöglicht wird. Allerdings können die Anzeigen kaum zu einer quantitativen Bewertung herangezogen werden. Hierfür sind Magnetfeldsensoren nötig, die die Stärke der Streufelder messen, wodurch z. B. die Tiefe der Risse abgeschätzt werden kann. Bei kommerziellen Magnetfeldsensoren sind die sensitiven Elemente auf Platinen angebracht bzw. in eine Verkapselung integriert. Hierdurch erhöht sich der Abstand der Elemente zur Oberfläche und kleine Fehler können unter Umständen nicht mehr detektiert werden. Auch wird eine automatisierte Prüfung komplexer Geometrien durch die starren Sonden erschwert. Um Streufelder von kleinen Fehlern in komplexen Bauteilen quantitativ bewerten zu können, validiert die BAM den Einsatz neuartiger, flexibler Magnetfeldsensoren. Hierbei sind die sensitiven Elemente auf flexiblen Folien aufgebracht und lassen sich verformen, wodurch sie auf viele mögliche Oberflächenformen appliziert werden können. Es wird ein geringerer Abstand der Elemente zur Oberfläche erreicht und Streufelder von kleinen Defekten können besser aufgelöst werden. Zudem verlieren die Sensoren durch Verformung weder ihre Sensitivität noch werden sie hierdurch zerstört. Dies macht diese Sensoren zu perfekten Kandidaten für die quantitative Bewertung von Rissstreufeldern in komplex geformten, ferromagnetischen Bauteilen. Der Beitrag präsentiert die Charakterisierung der Sensoren sowie erste Versuche an komplexen Bauteilen. Schließlich wird eine Einschätzung hinsichtlich weiterer Anwendungsmöglichkeiten gegeben.

T1 - The RASEM System: A Technical Overview N2 - Occupational health is an important topic, especially in industry, where workers are exposed to airborne by-products (e.g., dust particles and gases). Therefore, continuous monitoring of the air quality in industrial environments is crucial to meet safety standards. For practical and economic reasons, high-quality, costly measurements are currently only carried out sparsely, both in time and space, i.e., measurement data are collected in single day campaigns at selected locations only. The project “Robot-assisted Environmental Monitoring for Air Quality Assessment in Industrial Scenarios” (RASEM) addresses this issue by bringing together the benefits of both – low- and high-cost – measuring technologies enabling cost-efficient long-term air quality monitoring in realtime: A stationary network of low-cost sensors that is augmented by mobile units carrying high-quality sensors. By mapping the distribution of gases and particles in industrial environments with the proposed RASEM system, measures can be identified to improve on-site working conditions much faster than using traditional methods. In this presentation, we detail the technical aspects of RASEM and introduce the mobile platforms used.

Since there is a hazard of vertical impact within the distribution system, drop tests are performed as design type tests to assess the package’s ability to withstand damage. However, there is little information in this context regarding the mechanical response of a filled fibreboard box. This work aims to propose a concept utilizing experimental drop test results by means of finite-element (FE) analyses in order to predict the damage resistance of complete, filled corrugated fibreboard boxes which are ready for transportation.

T1 - Gather Dust and Get Dusted: Long-Term Drift and Cleaning of Sharp GP2Y1010AU0F Dust Sensor in a Steel Factory N2 - The Sharp GP2Y1010AU0F is a widely used low-cost dust sensor, but despite its popularity, the manufacturer provides little information on the sensor. We installed 16 sensing nodes with Sharp dust sensors in a hot rolling mill of a steel factory. Our analysis shows a clear correlation between sensor drift and accumulated production of the steel factory. An eye should be kept on the long-term drift of the sensors to prevent early saturation. Two of 16 sensors experienced full saturation, each after around eight and ten months of operation.
