TY - RPRT A1 - Beck, Uwe T1 - Abschlussbericht zum BMWi / MNPQ – Verbundprojekt Quo Vadis Qualitätssicherung von Verbundwerkstoffen und Validierung des Zentrifugenversuchs – eines neuartigen Prüfverfahrens zur Bestimmung von Verbundfestigkeiten N2 - Quo Vadis – Kurzdarstellung Im Fokus von Quo Vadis stehen die Qualitätssicherung von Verbundwerkstoffen und die Validierung der Zentrifugentechnologie zur quantitativen Bestimmung von Festigkeitswerten in der Beanspruchung auf Zug als Mehr-Proben-Prüfverfahren unter Verwendung einer analytischen Zentrifuge (nachfolgend als „Adhesion Analyser LUMiFrac®“ bezeichnet). Zu den Festigkeiten, die mit Hilfe des LUMiFrac® unter Verwendung aufgeklebter Prüfstempel bestimmt werden, gehören die Fügefestigkeit (FF) von Klebverbindungen, die Haftfestigkeit (HF) von Beschichtungen sowie die Verbundfestigkeit (VF) von Faserverbundwerkstoffen. Aufbauend auf zwei Funktionsmustern der analytischen Zentrifuge sollen für die genannten Anwendungsszenarien (FF, HF, VF) in Anlehnung an die geltenden Normen DIN EN 15870 „Klebstoffe – Zugprüfung zur Bestimmung der Zugfestigkeit von Stumpfklebungen“ und DIN EN ISO 4624 „Beschichtungsstoffe – Abreißversuch zur Beurteilung der Haftfestigkeit“ geeignete Prüfstrategien und -abläufe sowie zum Klebprozess kompatible Aufnahmen für den Prüfkörperverbund in der Zentrifuge entwickelt werden. Im Ergebnis des Vorhabens soll ein automatisiertes und validiertes Mehr-Proben-Prüfverfahren zur Qualitätssicherung von Verbundfestigkeiten zur Verfügung stehen, welches neben der Hardware auch eine Software für die angepassten Prüfstrategien in Form von SOPs (standard operating procedures) bereitstellt.

In this study infrared radiation in the wavelength range from 7.5 to 14 microns was measured for several systems (flame projectors) and set in relation to known human pain threshold levels. From this relation safety distances been determined for a static scenario (audience watching show) and compared with those of approved pyrotechnic articles.

N2 - Organosilanes are used routinely to functionalize various support materials for further modifications. Nevertheless, reliable quantitative information about surface functional group densities after layer formation is rarely available. Here, we present the analysis of thin organic nanolayers made from nitrogen containing silane molecules on naturally oxidized silicon wafers with reference-free total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). An areic density of 2−4 silane molecules per nm2 was calculated from the layer’s nitrogen mass deposition per area unit obtained by reference-free TXRF. Complementary energy and angle-resolved XPS (ER/ARXPS) in the Si 2p core-level region was used to analyze the outermost surface region of the organic (silane layer)−inorganic (silicon wafer) interface. Different coexisting silicon species as silicon, native silicon oxide, and silane were identified and quantified. As a result of the presented proof-of-concept, absolute and traceable values for the areic density of silanes containing nitrogen as intrinsic marker are obtained by calibration of the XPS methods with reference-free TXRF. Furthermore, ER/AR-XPS is shown to facilitate the determination of areic densities in (mono)layers made from silanes having no heteroatomic marker other than silicon. After calibration with reference-free TXRF, these areic densities of silane molecules can be determined when using the XPS component intensity of the silane’s silicon atom.

Neben dem Einfluss der Mittelspannung wurde der Einfluss der Eigenspannung und der Kerbschärfe experimentell untersucht. Die durchgeführten Schwingfestigkeitsversuche zeigen einen geringen Einfluss der Mittelspannung und der Eigenspannungen, wobei der Einfluss der Nahtgeometrie deutlich sichtbar ist. Proben mit geringerem Nahtanstiegswinkel zeigen eine höhere Schwingfestigkeit, was vor allem auf die längere Rissinitiierungsphase zurückzuführen ist. Die gemessenen und berechneten Schweißeigenspannungen ergeben Quereigenspannungen von bis zu 80% der Streckgrenze. Die zyklische Belastung der Probe zeigt, dass die Eigenspannungen sich beim ersten Lastzyklus signifikant durch Plastifizierung abbauen. Die Simulation des Rissschließens zeigt eine Abhängigkeit vom Lastniveau; von der Mittelspannung und von der Netzdichte. Das Rissschließen tritt an der Plattenoberfläche früher als am tiefsten Punkt des Risses auf.

Da man es im Bereich der Schwingfestigkeit mit kurzen Rissen zu tun hat, auf die die etablierten Methoden der Langrissbruchmechanik nicht anwendbar sind, werden Lösungen entwickelt, die es erlauben, sowohl die rissnahen Plastizitätsverhältnisse als auch die mit wachsendem Riss graduell zunehmenden Rissschließeffekte quantitativ zu beschreiben. Unter Einbeziehung der sogenannten "zyklischen R-Kurve", deren experimentelle Methodik ebenfalls im Rahmen des Projekts weiterentwickelt wird, ist es zudem möglich, Ausgangsrissgrößen vorherzusagen, die auf Dauerfestigkeitsniveau gerade so noch arretieren würden. Dies erlaubt umgekehrt eine Abschätzung der Dauerfestigkeit an realen Bauteilen wie eben Schweißnähten sowie die statistisch basierte, analytische Vorhersage des Zeitfestigkeitsastes der Wöhlerkurve. Die im Modell berücksichtigten Parameter bzw. deren statistische Verteilung schließen Werkstoffdaten und die lokale Nahtgeometrie (Nachtübergangsradius, Nahtanstiegswinkel, Einbrandkerben oder Oberflächenrauhigkeit) ein. Im Vortrag wird das analytische Modell vorgestellt und vor dem Hintergrund der im IBESS-Cluster bereitgestellten experimentellen Information diskutiert.

T1 - Imperfektionen für die schwingbruchmechanische Bewertung von Schweißverbindungen N2 - Bruchmechanischen Bewertungsmethoden liegt stets eine tatsachlich vorhandene oder fiktive Anfangsrisslange zu Grunde. Schweißverbindungen sind mit strukturellen Imperfektionen wie beispielsweise lnhomogenitaten in der Mikrostruktur und den Werkstoffeigenschaften behaftet, welche auf der Werkstoffseite berücksichtigt werden können. Imperfektionen wie der Kantenversatz und der Nahtübergangsradius, die als außere geometrische Imperfektionen aufgefasst werden können, haben vor allem Auswirkungen auf den Spannungszustand und werden daher auf der Lastseite erfasst. Innere geometrische Imperfektionen wie Einschlüsse oder Poren, von welchen Risse initiieren und sich ausbreiten, können als Ausgangsrissgröße aufgefasst werden. Im Teilprojekt A1 des Forschungsclusters IBESS wurden außere geometrische Imperfektionen an Schweißverbindungen ermittelt und statistisch ausgewertet. Des Weiteren wurden Schweißverbindungen fraktografisch im Rasterelektronenmikroskop (REM) bezüglich innerer geometrischer Imperfektionen untersucht, jedoch konnten aufgrund der hohen Schweißgütekeine schadigungsrelevanten inneren Imperfektionen (Ausgangsdefekte) detektiert werden. Um dennoch eine Ausgangsrisskonfiguration zu bestimmen, wurden "Heat-Tinting" Versuche eingesetzt, mit denen auf der Bruchflache verschiedene Anrissstadien markiert werden können. Mit dem .Heat-Tinting" Verfahren können sehr kleine Anrisse detektiert und in Abhangigkeit von der Beanspruchung frühe Anrisskonfigurationen ermittelt werden. Des Weiteren haben Zerbst und Madia im Teilprojekt A3 ein Modell entwickelt, mit dem für den Grundwerkstoff mittels zyklischer R-Kurven eine Ausgangsrissgröße rechnerisch ermittelt werden kann. Unter Verwendung der Ergebnisse aus den Versuchen zur Ermittlung der Anrissstadien soll dieses Modell validiert werden, um auch für Schweißverbindungen Anwendung zu finden.

T1 - IBESS: Integrale Bruchmechanische Ermittlung der Schwingfestigkeit von Schweißverbindungen - Eine Einführung N2 - Die Projektbezeichnung IBESS steht für .Integrale Bruchmechanische Ermittlung der Schwingfestigkeit von Schweißverbindungen". Ziel des von acht Partnern vorangetriebenen AiF-DFG-Forschungsclusters IBESS ist die Entwicklung eines Ansatzes zur bruchmechanischen Ermittlung der Schwingfestigkeit von Schweißverbindungen. Die Arbeiten umfassen grundlegende Untersuchungen zum Wachstum und Arrest kurzer Risse, zur Ausbildung und Beeinflussung von Schweißeigenspannungen unter zyklischer Last, zum Einfluss der lokalen Nahtgeometrie auf die Rissausbreitung, zum Mehrfachriss-Phänomen oberhalb des Dauerfestigkeitsniveaus sowie zum Koaleszenzverhalten benachbarter Risse. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse fließen in ein analytisches Modell zur Ermittlung der Schwingfestigkeit ein, das physikalisch begründete und mithin sehr viel individuellere Vorhersagen des Ermüdungsverhaltens von Schweißnähten ermöglichen soll, als das auf konventioneller Basis bislang möglich ist. Ein nicht geringer Teil der Aktivitäten des Clusters ist mit der Bereitstellung von Daten zur Validierung befasst. Diese wird auf verschiedenen Ebenen vorgenommen, von der Beschreibung des Wachstuns von Einzelrissen über ihr Zusammenwachsen bis hin zur kompletten Wöhlerkurve. Ziel dieses Vortrags ist ein kurzer Überblick über das IBESS-Gesamtprojekt, das dem Zuhörer eine Einordnung der im IBESS-Vortragsblock vorgestellten Einzelaktivitäten ermöglichen soll.

A fast prediction method has been developed which uses approximate transfer functions of layered soils. In the present contribution, this prediction method is used for the inverse calculation of the axle-load spectra from the measured ground vibration. The layered soils of some measuring sites show very differing ground vibration spectra in the amplitude range of 0.0001–1.0 mm/s as a consequence of the soft layer and stiff half-space, differing layer frequencies, as well as the far- and near-field measuring points. The back-calculation, however, yields axle-load spectra within a single order of magnitude around 1 kN. Axle-box measurements confirm the amplitude level of the axle loads. This standard axle-load spectrum can be used for a basic prediction at a new site. The separation of train and site-specific components allows a better evaluation of railway vibrations, for example, of different trains and different tracks. By eliminating the effects of differing soil characteristics, an important mid-frequency component has been found which lies between 8 and 32 Hz depending on the train speed. The origin of this dominant mid-frequency component is discussed using advanced prediction methods like moving constant loads, scattered axle impulses and axle-sequence spectra.

Ein Zielkonflikt besteht zwischen der Forderung nach hoher Aufbaurate und hoher Endformnähe, welcher von der Schweißraupengröße wesentlich beeinflusst wird. In dieser Veröffentlichung wird das Laser-Pulver-Auftragschweißen eingesetzt, um komplexe Formen additiv aufzubauen. Am Beispiel eines Tannenbaumprofiles werden unterschiedliche Einflussfaktoren dargestellt. Dazu gehören die Raupengeometrie, die Überlappung einzelner Raupen, die Verwendung unterschiedlicher Aufbaustrategien und die Teilung des Gesamtkörpers in Teilkörper. Der Zielkonflikt wird durch die Herstellung von Probekörpern mit unterschiedlichen Steigungswinkeln an den Seitenflächen verdeutlicht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine verbesserte Endformnähe in Bereichen flacher Steigung beim Einsatz kleiner Schweißraupen. Im Vergleich dazu erlauben die Schweißparameter der großen Raupen eine 5-fach höhere Aufbaurate. Bei einer Raupenüberlappung kleiner und großer Raupengeometrien innerhalb einer Lage treten Anbindungsfehler auf. Strategien zur Behebung dieses Fehlers durch Anpassung der Schweißreihenfolge werden in dieser Veröffentlichung aufgezeigt. Diese Erfahrungen werden genutzt, um einen Gesamtkörper aus Teilkörpern unterschiedlicher Raupengeometrien zu fertigen.

T1 - Smart geosynthetics for structural health monitoring using fully distributed fiber optic sensors N2 - We report on the development of a complete system for structural health monitaring of large-scale geotechnical structures. The system uses Brillouin frequency domain analysis (BOFDA) for distributed measurement of strain and temperature along glass optical fibers (GOFs) by determining the so-called Brillouin frequency shift (BFS). ln a number of research activities we managed to optimize the BOFDA measurement setup regarding the spatial resolution and the accuracy of the measured quantities. Moreover, we realized a simultaneaus measurement of strain and temperature by using nonzero dispersion-shifted fibers (NZDSFs) with several multiple Brillouin scattering resonances. ln cooperation with our German and ltalian industry partners we finally succeeded in fabricating low-attenuation smart geosynthetics as a sensor component of a fully distributed Brillouin-based fiber optic monitaring system.

AFM topography images have been combined together taking advantage of the stitching technique for the study of wear scars in their initial stage. Moreover, the topography of the sample has been acquired before and after the sliding tests. In this way even very small changes of the sample surface (<10 nm) can be detected. Three main phenomena taking place at the very initial stage of wear could be identified: the abrasion of small asperities bulging out of the sample surface, the carving of swallow grooves with depth under 20 nm, and the partial or total closure of cavities present on the surface. This last phenomenon shows that, before the carving of a wear scar, the plastic deformation of particular regions of the sample, i.e. the volume around the cavities, takes place already after few cycles (in this case between 400 and 800) in the initial phase of the sliding test.

By electrochemical and long-term exposure tests at 100 °C and 150 °C the suitability of low alloyed steel UNS G41300, stainless steels UNS S31603 UNS S31803, UNS S32760, super austenitic steel UNS N08031 and nickel based alloy UNS N06059 was investigated in these geothermal fluids, using critical potentials and corrosion rates. In high-saline environments the crevice corrosion turned out to be the determining mechanism. The nickel based alloy shows excellent corrosion resistance against pitting corrosion. Excluding its high cost, it is very good to be used in the construction of geothermal facilities having highly saline brines. Stainless and duplex steels exhibit a limited corrosion resistance concerning pitting and crevice corrosion. Therefore they are not suitable for highly saline brines. The super austenite UNS N08031 showed a temperature depending behavior. In non-saline environments the low-alloyed steel UNS G41300 (beside of the higher alloyed materials) could be employed as a constructional material for the geothermal power plant, as long as a sufficient wall thickness of the material is considered.

T1 - Requirements on glasses for femtosecond-laser based micro-structuring N2 - In this work, glasses with systematically varied compositions were manufactured and irradiated by single Ti:sapphire fs-laserpulses (800 nm, 120 fs), focused at the surface and into the bulk of the glass materials. The samples were tested for their ablation threshold fluence as well as for structural changes using µ-Raman-spectroscopy. Correlations between the glass composition, the material-ablation on the glass surface and the permanent changes of the refractive index inside the glass volume after the irradiation by fs-laser pulses were obtained. The results show, that the structural modifications found at the surface of the glasses and inside its volume are closely related. However, while the ablation threshold fluence of the glass surface primarily depends on the glass dissociation energy, the permanent refractive index change inside the volume is rather determined by its ability for absorbing the fs-laser pulses and the subsequent relaxation processes. The results of this work provide some guidance on how the glass composition can be varied in order to optimize the fs-laser induced modification of dielectrics.

T1 - Dispersion of heavy gases - experimental results and numerical simulations N2 - The hazardous potential of accidental heavy gas releases, especially those involving flammable and toxic gases, is widely known. In order to predict the area in which these gases are in hazardous concentrations, an estimation of the dispersion of these gases must be carried out. While the hazardous area for flammable heavy gases is determined by the lower flammability limit (ca. >1 vol%), the release of toxic heavy gases can result in a much larger hazardous area. Toxic gases, even in very low concentrations (ca. <3,000 ppm), have the potential to be highly damaging. State-of-the-art dispersion models, such as the VDI Guideline 3783, can be used to estimate the dispersion of heavy gases. However, VDI 3783 gives no method for the prediction of the height and width of a heavy gas cloud, which are both required for quantitative risk analysis as well as for a possible coupling of a Lagrangian particle model with the VDI 3783 heavy gas dispersion model. Therefore, further calculation methods were used to describe these dimensions and were evaluated against experimental studies of the length, width, and height of the heavy and neutral gas field. In addition to that the influence of the source height on the heavy gas dispersion was also examined KW - Process safety KW - Heavy gas KW - Numerical simulation KW - Explosion protection PY - 2015 DO - https://doi.org/10.1002/prs.11723 SN - 1066-8527 SN - 1547-5913 SN - 0278-4513 VL - 34 IS - 3 SP - 280 EP - 285 PB - Wiley InterScience CY - Hoboken, NJ AN - OPUS4-34756 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Hübner, P.

T1 - Fracture mechanics assessment of welded components at static loading N2 - Special aspects of welded components such as geometrical imperfections, inhomogeneity, strength mismatch and welding residual stresses have to be taken into account in a fracture mechanics analysis since they affect the crack driving force in the component as weil as the fracture resistance of the material. The treatment of components subjected to static loading is based on methods such as the European SINT AP procedure, which has been validated in a nurober of case studies. In the present paper the influence of strength mismatch and residual stresses on the fracture resistance and the assessment of a component are discussed.

T1 - Investigation of a combined microdroplet generator and pneumatic nebulization system for rapid quantitative determination of metal-containing nanoparticles using ICP-MS N2 - In this work, a routinely applicable approach is presented to characterize metal NPs. Individual droplets generated from a microdroplet generator (MDG) were merged into an aerosol generated by a pneumatic nebulizer (PN) and introduced into an ICPMS. The MDG offers high transport efficiency of individual and discrete droplets and was therefore used to establish a calibration function for mass quantification of NPs which were introduced through the PN following the single particle procedure as described elsewhere. The major advantages of such a combined configuration include fast processing of large sample volumes, fast exchanges of different sample matrixes, and the calibration of the NP signal using traceable elemental standards, thus avoiding the need to use NP reference materials or other, not always thoroughly characterized, commercially available NPs. The transport efficiency of the sample introduction is calculated based on the fact that 100% of the calibrant reaches the plasma through the MDG, whereas for the PN a NP suspension containing a known number concentration is used. Alternatively, bulk analysis of the NP material allows transport efficiency determination without any additional information from reference NPs. With this method, we could determine the size of standard silver NPs at 60.4 ± 1.0 nm and 80.0 ± 1.4 nm, respectively, which agrees with the size ranges given by the supplier (60.8 ± 6.6 nm and 79.8 ± 5.4 nm). Furthermore, we were also able to determine the NPs number concentration of the sample (Ag/Au) with a deviation of 3.2% the expected value.

The method uses the diagnosing power of complex electrical resistivity in a frequency range between 1 mHz and 1 kHz. In our study, the potential of this method has been explored for the investigation of wood. We observed remarkable differences in the resulting spectra of complex resistivity for different European and Tropical tree species. The data processing of the acquired low-frequency impedance spectra yields integrating parameters. The comparison of the integrating parameters with the mean pore diameter that has been separately determined for the tropical tree species indicates clear correlations. An additional investigation has revealed remarkable difference in the complex resistivity spectra between oil bearing and non-oil bearing sandal wood. This result and the relations between electrical parameters and structural parameters of wood indicate the prospective potential of low-frequency impedance spectroscopy.

Enhanced concentrations were mainly found at spots relatively close to densely industrialized and urbanized regions and at some topographically elevated areas. Average enrichment factors between mineral soil and humic layer depend on humus type i.e. decrease from mull via moder to mor. Based on their compound-patterns, the observed samples could be assigned to three main clusters. For some parts of our study area a uniform assignment of samples to clusters over larger regions could be identified. For instance, samples taken at vicinity to brown-coal strip-mining districts are characterized by high relative abundances of low-molecular-weight PAHs. These results suggest that PAHs are more likely originated from local and regional emitters rather than from long-range transport and that specific source-regions can be identified based on PAH fingerprints.

Experimental results of floor vibrations are shown for many floors in six different buildings. The signals have been evaluated for waves and modes by simple procedures. General rules have been established between the material and the area of a specific floor, and its local eigenfrequency. The damping values of the floor vibrations have been found between D = 1 and 10 % where somewhat higher values have been measured for wooden floors, and a weak correlation with the eigenfrequency has been established. The velocities of bending waves propagating in a storey and the attenuation with distance in the building have been analysed. A considerable transfer of vibration from one room to far away parts of the building has been found in the studied buildings with concrete and wooden floors. An example building has been analysed for modes of coupled floor bays. The strong coupling of similar neighbouring floor bays would yield a wide band of global resonance frequencies. The measured wooden floor exhibits a weak coupling of the neighbouring floor bays and a narrower band of eigenfrequencies. A special method has been tested with the impulse measurements to estimate the coupled eigenmodes in presence of the high damping. From the ambient measurement, a low-frequency vibration mode has been detected which includes the vibration of the whole building and the soil. The coupling of floors to other floors and the whole building is an important phenomenon of structural dynamics which should be observed for the prediction of vibration due to internal and external sources.

A1 - Rethmeier, Michael T1 - Understanding grain refinement in aluminium welding N2 - Grain refinement is an important opportunity to improve mechanical properties of fusion welds and the weldability (susceptibility to solidification cracking) of the base metal. In this study, grain refinement was achieved in aluminium welds through additions of grain refiner to the weld metal. Increasing grain refiner additions led to a decrease of the weld metal mean grain size (down to −86 %). The grain refinement efficiency was the highest in commercial pure Al (Alloy 1050A, Al 99.5), followed by Alloy 6082 (Al Si1MgMn) and Alloy 5083 (Al Mg4.5Mn0.7). To investigate this clear influence of alloy content on grain size, the undercooling parameters P and Q were calculated. Temperature measurements revealed that solidification parameters such as solidification growth rate or cooling rate vary significantly along the solidification front, dependent upon torch speed and alloy. On the basis of this comparison, an analytical approach was used to model the columnar to equiaxed transition (CET). Moreover, wavelength dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses revealed particles rich in Ti and B that are probably TiB2 particles coated by Al3Ti nucleating Al grains during solidification. Also, Ti/B contents needed in commercial filler wires to allow optimum weld metal grain refinement were calculated dependent upon base alloy and welding process.

The study was based on new co-crystals including the coformer anthranilic acid.

T1 - AKR unter kombinierten Einwirkungen - Rissbildungs- und Transportmechanismen N2 - ln den letzten Jahren sind im deutschen Bundesautobahnnetz verstärkt Schäden an Betonfahrbahndecken aufgetreten, die mit einer Alkali-Kieselsäure-Reaktion (AKR) in Verbindung gebracht werden. Die damit einhergehende oft drastische Reduzierung der Nutzungsdauer der Betonfahrbahndecke führte zu einer starken Intensivierung der Forschung auf diesem Gebiet. Zentraler Forschungsgegenstand war bisher neben der Suche nach geeigneten präventiven betontechnologischen Maßnahmen vor allem die Entwicklung performanceorientierter Prüfverfahren zur AKR-Prävention. Dabei wurden insbesondere die klimatischen Einwirkungen auf die Betonfahrbahndecke und der externe Alkalieintrag zeitraffend simuliert. Die zusätzlich interagierenden mechanischen Einwirkungen aus dem Verkehr fanden bisher keine Berücksichtigung. Vor diesem Hintergrund verfolgt die 2011 eingerichtete und 2015 um weitere drei Jahre verlängerte DFG-Forschergruppe 1498 u. a. das Ziel, den Einfluss einer mechanisch induzierten Vorschädigung (Ermüdungsbeanspruchung) auf den AKR-Schädigungsprozess zu klären. Die hierfür erforderliche Beschreibung der vielfältigen interagierenden Schädigungs- und Transportprozesse erfordert eine enge Verknüpfung von Experimenten mit einer mehrskaligen Modellierung. Die experimentelle Basis bildet die mechanische Vorschädigung (Ermüdung) großformatiger Balken aus einem Fahrbahndeckenbeton mit einem erhöhten AKR-Schädigungspotenzial. Aus diesen Balken werden nach der Ermüdungsbeanspruchung kleinformatige Probekörper gewonnen, an denen die Auswirkungen der mechanischen Vorschädigung auf das Betongefüge und die interagierenden Transport- und Schädigungsprozesse analysiert werden. Das Teilprojekt der SAM hat in diesem Kontext die Aufgabe, ganzheitlich die Rissbildungsprozesse und den interagierenden Eintrag bzw. Auslaugung der Alkalien von der mechanisch induzierten Vorschädigung bis zum AKR-Schädigungsprozess in enger Abstimmung mit den Forschungspartnern zu untersuchen. Den Schwerpunkt dieses Beitrags bildet die Charakterisierung der Rissbildungsprozesse durch die mechanische Vorschädigung und ihrer Auswirkungen auf die interagierenden Transportprozesse.

T1 - The background for the use of hardmetals and MMCs based on niobium carbide (NbC) as cutting tools and for wear resistant tribosystems N2 - In this present study, the mechanical properties (strength, hardness, moduli) and the dry sliding properties of stoichiometric and sub-stoichiometric NbC were compared. Microhardness and elastic properties of NbC depend from the C/Nb ratio, because the binary phase diagram Nb-C shows a region of homogeneity of NbCx of 0,72≤ x ≤1.0. At RT, hard metals of stoichiometric NbC have an elastic modulus E of ~440 GPa, those of substochiometric NbC0,88 an E of 405 GPa. The hot hardness of sub-stoichiometric NbC is above 600°C higher than of WC. The dry sliding wear resistance (0,1-7/10 m/s) of the present Fe3Al-NbC0,94 with ~61 vol.-% NbC as hard phase was close to those known of NbC-based hard metals. No grain pull-outs or fragmentations of the NbC grains were seen in the wear tracks of the Fe3Al-NbC composite (MMC), as a metallurgical interphase was formed between matrix and NbC grains. Stoichiometric and sub-stoichiometric niobium carbides have at RT and 400°C under dry sliding a prone intrinsic wear resistance more or less independent from sliding speed, either as hardmetal or as hard phase in metal matrix composite, associated with an exceptional high load carrying capacity.

T1 - Near real-time reconstruction of 2D soil gas distribution from a regular network of linear gas sensors N2 - A monitoring method is introduced that creates, in near real-time, two-dimensional (2D) maps of the soil gas distribution. The method combines linear gas sensing technology for in-situ monitoring of gases in soil with the mapping capabilities of Computed Tomography (CT) to reconstruct spatial and temporal resolved gas distribution maps. A weighted iterative algebraic reconstruction method based on Maximum Likelihood with Expectation Maximization (MLEM) in combination with a source-by-source reconstruction approach is introduced that works with a sparse setup of orthogonally-aligned linear gas sensors. The reconstruction method successfully reduces artifact production, especially when multiple gas sources are present, allowing the discrimination between true and non-existing so-called ghost source locations. A first experimental test indicates the high potential of the proposed method for, e.g., rapid gas leak localization.

T1 - Identifizierung von sicherheitstechnisch gefährlichen Bedingungen für schlagartige Kompressionsvorgänge chemisch instabiler Gase im industriellen Maßstab N2 - Tetrafluorethen wird von der Polymerindustrie seit Jahrzenten als monomeres Ausgangsmaterial sowohl für die Herstellung von Polymeren (PTFE) als auch für Kopolymere (PCTFE) eingesetzt. Aufgrund seiner Eigenschaft als chemisch instabiles Gas kann TFE auch ohne Luftsauerstoff oder einen anderen Oxydator explosionsartig zerfallen. Nach der Initiierung des Zerfalls kann dieser unter bestimmten Bedingungen aufgrund des exothermen Reaktionsverhaltens sich selbstständig in Apparaten und Rohrleitungen ausbreiten. Dies geht aufgrund der freigesetzten Reaktionsenthalpie mit einem schlagartigen Anstieg von Druck und Temperatur einher, was zu erheblichen Belastungen der Materialien bis hin zum Versagen und Bruch und möglichen Folgeschäden einschließlich Personenschäden führen kann und in der Vergangenheit bereits mehrfach geführt hat. Besonders nach Wartungsarbeiten besteht die Gefahr, dass Teilabschnitte im Rohrleitungssystem mit TFE, Stickstoff oder Luft gefüllt sind mit Drücken in einem Bereich zwischen technischem Vakuum und atmosphärischem Druck wohingegen angrenzende Rohrabschnitte oder Behälter immer noch TFE bei Betriebsdrücken bis 32 bar enthalten können. Dabei sind die Abschnitte in der Praxis häufig durch Kugelhähne voneinander getrennt, die aufgrund ihrer Öffnungscharakteristik bereits bei geringen Betätigungswinkeln eine große Querschnittsfreigabe für die Strömung im Rohr ermöglichen. Dadurch können schlagartige Kompressionsvorgänge des Gases im Niederdruckbereich ermöglicht werden, die allein aufgrund der thermodynamischen Zustandsänderung zu einer erheblichen Temperaturerhöhung führen und im schlimmsten Fall zur Initiierung der Zerfallsreaktion führen können. Es wird erstmalig ein Versuchsaufbau im Industriemaßstab, der einer explosionsartigen Zerfallsreaktion von TFE standhalten kann. Zahlreiche Sicherheitskonzepte einschließlich diverser Berstscheibenkonfigurationen als auch zeitgesteuerte Schnellschlussventile wurden eingehend untersucht und bewertet, um die optimale Versuchskonfiguration für bestmögliche Reproduzierbarkeit festzulegen. Es fand eine systematische Untersuchung der schlagartigen Kompression der Systeme Luft/Luft, TFE/Luft, TFE/TFE und TFE/N2 statt. In der Hochdrucksektion wurden Drücke bis 30 bar realisiert und im Niederdrucksektor konnten Anfangsdrücke im Bereich weniger Millibar bis hin zu Atmosphärendruck eingestellt werden. Als Hauptergebnis wurde ein „Hazard diagram" erstellt, mit dessen Hilfe die Zündwahrscheinlichkeit in Abhängigkeit vom Hochdruck und Niederdruck abgeschätzt werden kann. Gefährliche Bedingungen in Rohrleitungen können dadurch auf einfachem Weg identifiziert werden. Als Referenzsystem zur Beurteilung der maximal erreichbaren nicht reaktiven Kompressionstemperaturen wurde Luft/Luft verwendet. Die damit ermittelten Daten dienten zur Bewertung von zusätzlichen exothermen Effekten, wie sie etwa bei Vorreaktion des TFE im Falle einer Dimerisierung auftreten können. Entgegen der ursprünglichen Annahme konnten die Systeme TFE/Stickstoff und TFE/TFE im verwendeten Aufbau nicht durch Kompressionsvorgänge gezündet werden. T2 - 12.

Aufgrund des breiten Explosionsbereichs (4 Vol.-% - 74 Vol.-%) reagiert Wasserstoff sehr schnell und produziert hohe Flammentemperaturen. Da Wasserstoffflammen ruß- bzw. farblos sind, ist Wärmestrahlung im Fernfeld kein Risikofaktor. Allerdings stellen die hohe lokale Wärmestrahlung und die nicht sichtbaren Flammen eine Gefahr für Menschen und Infrastruktur in der Nähe dar. Es ist daher notwendig die Gefahren von LH2-Feuern sorgfältig zu bewerten. Einerseits sind experimentelle Untersuchungen verschiedener Szenarien teuer, andererseits können sie teilweise auch praktisch nicht durchführbar sein. Numerische Simulationen dieser Szenarien können ein Ausweg aus diesem Problem sein. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird ein solcher Ansatz genutzt, um große Brandszenarien mit LH2 mittels CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) zu modellieren und so die notwendigen Sicherheitsabstände abzuschätzen. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf der Simulation von Jet- und Pool-Feuerszenarien mit einem kommerziellen CFD-Code (Ansys CFX). Die benötigten geometrischen Modelle werden für Jet- und Pool-Feuer erstellt und mit den nötigen Randbedingungen implementiert. Wichtige Submodelle für chemische Reaktionen (Einschritt- und detaillierte Modelle), Verbrennung (Eddy-Dissipation- und Flamelet-Modell) und Strahlung (Discrete-Transfer-Modell) werden genutzt. Die maximal simulierten Flammentemperaturen liegen bei ~2100 K für Jet-Feuer und ~2300 K für Pool-Feuer. Um Aussagen zu thermischen Sicherheitsabständen zu treffen, wurden die Spezifischen Ausstrahlungen (SEP) ermittelt und anschließend entsprechende Positionsfaktoren gewählt, um verlässliche Sicherheitsabstände zu berechnen. Je nach Bedarf können CFD-Modelle sowohl für qualitative als auch für quantitative Risikobewertungen von LH2-Großbränden genutzt werden. T2 - 12.

The influences of admixtures on the course of cement hydration and formation of hydrate phases have to be considered. Polycarboxylate ether (PCE) based polymeric superplasticizers (SPs) are known to retard the setting of the cement paste. The extent of the retardation differs depending on the molecular structure of the SP. Additionally, the presence of a stabilizing agent (SA) in the cement paste has a retarding side effect on the setting. The initial cement hydration processes and the detailed mechanisms of the retardation influenced by PCEs, as well as their interactions with particular SAs, are insufficiently understood. Up to now, only the results of phenomenological studies were taken into account to describe this retardation process. A detailed structure analysis monitoring the change of the phase composition during the hydration was never applied. Both SP and SA affect the adsorption of the sulphate ions on the clinker particles, causing changes in the formation of ettringite during the initial hydration, and are therefore a crucial part of the setting process itself. Here, the initial hydration of cement influenced by the interaction of SP and SA was monitored in situ by synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The high time resolution of the measurements allowed a continuous detection of the hydrates formed. The hydration was followed from the starting point of water addition and for couple of hours afterwards. The hydration of the levitated cement pellets containing starch as SA was initialized by adding aqueous solutions of different commercial SPs. Changes in the ettringite formation were detected in comparison to the reference hydration of pure cement.

T1 - Comparison of phytoscreening and direct-push-based site investigation at a rural megasite contaminated with chlorinated ethenes N2 - The reliable characterization of subsurface contamination of spatially extended contaminated sites is a challenging task, especially with an unknown history of land use. Conventional technologies often fail due to temporal and financial constraints and thus hinder the redevelopment of abandoned areas in particular. Here we compare two site screening techniques that can be applied quickly at relatively low cost, namely Direct Push (DP)-based groundwater sampling and tree core sampling. The effectiveness of both methods is compared for a rural megasite contaminated with chlorinated hydrocarbons. Unexpected pollution hot spots could be identified using both of these methods, while tree coring even enabled the delineation of the contaminant plume flowing into an adjacent wetland inaccessible for DP units. Both methods showed a good agreement in revealing the spatial pattern of the contamination. The correlation between groundwater concentrations and equivalent concentrations in wood was linear and highly significant for trichloroethene. Correlation was less obvious for its metabolite cis-dichloroethene, but still significant. As outcome of our study we recommend tree coring and for initial screening in combination with a DP sampling to retrieve quantitative data on groundwater pollutants in order to assess the contamination situation of a non- or only partly investigated site. The subsequent placement of monitoring wells for long-term monitoring of contamination levels is recommended. A combination of methods would achieve more relevant information at comparable or possibly even lower efforts in comparison to a conventional site investigation.

T1 - Quantification of the value of structural health monitoring information for fatigue deteriorating structural systems N2 - This paper addresses the quantification of the value of structural health monitoring (SHM) before its implementation for structural systems on the basis of its Value of Information (VoI). The value of SHM is calculated utilizing the Bayesian pre-posterior decision analysis modelling the structural life cycle performance, the integrity management and the structural risks. The relevance and precision of SHM information for the reduction of the structural system risks and the expected cost of the structural integrity management throughout the life cycle constitutes the value of SHM and is quantified with this framework. The approach is focused on fatigue deteriorating structural steel systems for which a continuous resistance deterioration formulation is introduced. In a case study, the value of SHM for load monitoring is calculated for a Daniels system subjected to fatigue deterioration. The influence of and the value of SHM in regard to the structural system risks and the integrity management is explicated and explained. The results are pointing to the importance of the consideration of the structural system risks for the quantification of the value of SHM.

T1 - Assessing and updating the reliability of concrete bridges subjected to spatial deterioration - principles and software implementation N2 - Inspection and maintenance of concrete bridges is a major cost factor in transportation infrastructure, and there is significant potential for using information gained during inspection to update predictive models of the performance and reliability of such structures. In this context, this paper presents an approach for assessing and updating the reliability of prestressed concrete bridges subjected to chloride-induced reinforcement corrosion. The system deterioration state is determined based on a Dynamic Bayesian Network (DBN) model that considers the spatial variability of the corrosion process. The overall system reliability is computed by means of a probabilistic structural model coupled with the deterioration model. Inspection data are included in the system reliability calculation through Bayesian updating on the basis of the DBN model. As proof of concept, a software prototype is developed to implement the method presented here. The software prototype is applied to a typical highway bridge and the influence of inspection information on the system deterioration state and the structural reliability is quantified taking into account the spatial correlation of the corrosion process. This work is a step towards developing a software tool that can be used by engineering practitioners to perform reliability assessments of ageing concrete bridges and update their reliability with inspection and monitoring data.

T1 - Analysis of polyethylene microplastics in environmental samples, using a thermal decomposition method N2 - Small polymer particles with a diameter of less than 5 mm called microplastics find their way into the environment from polymer debris and industrial production. Therefore a method is needed to identify and quantify microplastics in various environmental samples to generate reliable concentration values. Such concentration values, i.e. quantitative results, are necessary for an assessment of microplastic in environmental media. This was achieved by thermal extraction in thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), connected to a solid-phase adsorber. These adsorbers were subsequently analysed by thermal desorption gas chromatography mass spectrometry (TDS-GC-MS). In comparison to other chromatographic methods, like pyrolyse gas chromatography mass spectrometry (Py-GC-MS), the relatively high sample masses in TGA (about 200 times higher than used in Py-GC-MS) analysed here enable the measurement of complex matrices that are not homogenous on a small scale. Through the characteristic decomposition products known for every kind of polymer it is possible to identify and even to quantify polymer particles in various matrices. Polyethylene (PE), one of the most important representatives for microplastics, was chosen as an example for identification and quantification.

T1 - Thermal extraction combined with thermal desorption: A powerful tool to investigate the thermo-oxidative degradation of polyamide 66 materials N2 - Using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) with a solid-phase adsorber for thermal extraction, followed by subsequently analysing the adsorber with thermo-desorption gas chromatography mass spectrometry (TDS-GC–MS) enables measurement of polymer degradation under oxidizing atmosphere, and the identification of certain complex hydrocarbon degradation products by chromatographic separation and defined mass patterns. This technique, thermal-extraction desorption gas chromatography mass spectrometry (TED-GC–MS) was used to investigate the thermo-oxidative degradation of PA 66 and PA 66 doped with 2 wt% of metal oxide particles. In TGA pure PA 66 formed more residue under an oxidizing atmosphere than an inert one. In contrast to the measurements under inert atmosphere, several condensed aromatic species containing nitrogen could be identified in thermo-oxidative measurements. These degradation products were formed through condensation reactions of primary amides originating from imide hydrolysis. The formation of such highly condensed species also causes higher char formation. Four metal oxides have shown an impact on the thermo-oxidative degradation of PA 66: Fe2O3 on η-Al2O3 < pure Fe2O3 = Fe2O3 on γ-Al2O3 < pure ZnO. For ZnO even a char-stabilizing effect could be observed. A catalytic effect of these metal oxides causes more condensed cyclopentanone and pyridine derivates. Thus, more water is formed and released, resulting in increased hydrolysis of the imides and degradation at lower temperatures.

Properties of components are often strongly influenced by inner porosity. In the case of high pressure die castings, shrinkage and gas porosity occur. Two possibilities of characterizing porosity - by microscopy and acitve thermography - are dealt with in two articles. In the previous article, the microscopic investigations are presented.

In this paper, an easy to realize sensor concept is proposed and experimentally evaluated. The concept is based on the measurement of the surface temperature of a thermal thick probe after flash excitation. After considering the sensor concept with FEM simulations the experimental investigation of four materials (two polymer and two building materials) is described. It will be shown that a suited coating is essential for the realization of the sensor concept. The experimental results prove the suitability of black rigid PVC as the most promising material. Using a coated PVC sample the energy density of short laser pulses, similar to flashes of flash lamps, could be determined exactly with an estimated relative uncertainty of only a few percent.

T1 - Modelling of propagation with SPH of 1966 Aberfan flowslide: special attention to the role of rheology and pore water pressure N2 - Landslides can cause major economic damage and a large number of casualities as it is possible to see from past events occurred all over the world. Being able to predict these kind of hazards would then suppose the achievement of great benefits. Here a model that combines a depth integrated description of the soil-pore fluid mixture together with a set of 1D models dealing with pore pressure evolution within the soil mass is presented. The mathematical model is based on the Biot-Zienkiewicz equations, from where a depth averaged model is derived. Concerning the material behaviour, the approach used is the one suggested by the Perzyna viscoplasticity, which has been extensively used in the past to model solid behaviour prior to failure. In this framework, a simple shear rheological model is derived, providing the basal friction needed in depth integrated models. The Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) has been the numerical technique chosen to spatially discretised the depth integrated equations of the mathematical model. The purpose of this work is to apply the SPH depth integrated numerical model, together with the sub-model that predicts the evolution of the pore water pressure inside the landslide, to simulate the propagation phase of the Aberfan flowslide occurred in 1966.

Comparison of the different national approaches and distances for Shells derived from Shellcalc© highlights the variety and derivation of the “safety distances” adopted and these distances are related to the various failure modes of Shells that may affect the audience. In particular the effects of angled mortars and wind are compared and considered. It is not intended that this paper should encourage the maximum distances derived always to be adopted, but that an appreciation of the probabilities and hazards of various accident scenarios and therefore the risks involved be part of the decision making process for designers and commissioners of displays as well as enforcing authorities.

The current Version of this Standard provides mortar dimension limits to be used for the assessment of burst heights of spherical Shells, but lacks corresponding provisions for cylindrical shells. The aim of this study was threefold: 1. To check whether the requirements for spherical shells would overlap with the ones for cylindrical shells, 2. To compare several test procedures for height measurements with each other to minimize the measurement uncertainty of the effect dimensions, and 3. To evaluate drift distances in order to check whether the current national provisions on safety distances for Professional fireworks displays need adaption during the implementation of the new European directive 2013/29/EU on pyrotechnics in German legislation. For this study, a large number of cylindrical shells was specifically manufactured to guarantee lull control on all relevant constructional aspects. These shells were designed with a smoke tracer and no burst Charge so that they would fall back to the ground in order to investigate their drift distances. Their gross mass corresponded to commercially available display shells, though, consisting of defined inert substances inside the shell. The following Parameters were varied in this study: caliber (75 mm, 100 mm, 150 mm), shell length per caliber (single and double length), lift Charge (hard and soft burst effect), mortar length per caliber (short and long). In total, more than 120 shells were manufactured and tested. Results show a good application of the proposed test procedures regarding the mortar dimensions given in the Standard series for cylindrical shells as well. The following test procedures were part of this study: Radar Doppler System, video grammetric System, universal surveying instruments, and mortar internal pressure measurements. Observed drift distances in relation to the caliber and effect heights are discussed and assessed.

Nine of twelve pilgrim badges agree with Central European deposits, while three pilgrim badges show a different Pb isotopic composition covering either Mediterranean, or Aegean or Mid to Eastern European sources.

For the calibration of these thermometers a new European Standard prEN 16465 was published in 2015, describing the well-known contact method and a new contactless method with a pyrometer. It can be confirmed that the temperature calibrations according to the two methods provide different calibration results which are not interchangeable (which is already stated in the scope of this standard). The described contactless method to determine the surface temperature 'under radiation load' results in clearly too high temperatures. This paper tries to highlighting the reasons.

T1 - A new irradiation device for medium scale plastic products N2 - A new irradiation device for the exposure of plastic products is presented. Developed in the BAM division 3.1 "Dangerous Goods Packaging" it can be used for artificial UV irradiation of plastic Containers filled with hazardous liquids. Present regulations and tests only investigate the exposure effects of UV and of media separately, but as the damaging effect is expected to be synergistic for at least some media, a combined test was looked for. A chamber of 60 cm by 60 cm base area and 1 m height gives space for up to 40 cm wide objects. Two fluorescent UV lamp arrays are arranged on opposite walls, separated from the chamber by quartz glass panes. By continuously rotating the exposure object by means of a rotary disc that the object is placed on, spatial irradiation homogeneity is achieved over the exposure duration. The spectral irradiance of the chosen UVA 340 nm lamps gives the best match of global solar radiation in the short wavelength ränge. The close arrangement of the UVA lamps (15 each side) results in 60 W m'2 UV irradiance. Constant temperature is adjusted to typically 40 °C by the control of the fan speed. This temperature is chosen, as it is the required temperature for three week storage of filled polyethylene Containers, for proving Chemical compatibility in the field of dangerous goods. To ensure homogeneity, an interiorfan provides for air circulation.

A Mach-Zehnder inter-ferometer generated polarization controlled (parallel or cross-polarized) double-pulse sequences in two configurations – either at 800 nm only, or at 400 and 800 nm wavelengths. The inter-pulse delays of the individual 50-fs pulses ranged up to some tens of picoseconds. Multiple of these single- or two-color double-fs-pulse sequences were collinearly focused by a spherical mirror to the sample surface. In both experimental configurations, the peak fluence of each individual pulse was kept below its respective ablation threshold and only the joint action of both pulses lead to the formation of LIPSS. Their resulting characteristics were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and the periods were quantified by Fourier analyses. The LIPSS periods along with the orientation allow a clear identification of the pulse which dominates the energy coupling to the material. A plasmonic model successfully explains the delay-dependence of the LIPSS on titanium and confirms the importance of the ultrafast energy deposition stage for LIPSS formation.

Electrochemical methods have preferentially been applied for the evaluation of pitting corrosion resistance of stainless steels in laboratory. Nevertheless, some of them are not reliable enough and in general the application of electrochemical methods in the field becomes difficult because of a required deep understanding of corrosion phenomena and measurement technology. A new approach for the evaluation of the pitting corrosion susceptibility of stainless Steel surfaces in the laboratory as well as in the field is frequently demanded by representatives of the metalworking industry. Therefore, the KorroPad-test was invented and patented as part of a research project at the BAM Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing in Germany.

T1 - Inverse finite element adjustment of material parameters from integrated analysis of displacement field measurement N2 - The integration of finite element method (FEM) into the least-squares adjustment presented in [1] is further extended for a joint evaluation of an elastostatic model and displacement field measurement. For linear solids which obey the HOOKE's law, the material parameters determination from measurements is being examined. In many literature, see for example [2], parameters are iteratively tuned until the computed FEM results are in accordance with the measurements. In contrast to these debatable approaches, we follow a rigorous and direct method. The “classical” FEM procedure starts with known material constants and ends up with computed fields such as dis-placement or temperature field. We present a method to invert the FEM procedure using the most general least-squares adjustment – the GAUSS-HELMERT Model (GHM). From given fields, the material parameters are directly calculated.

T1 - Photocleavable epoxy based materials N2 - The present study aims at the development of photodegradable epoxy based materials comprising o-nitrobenzyl ester links that undergo well defined bond cleavage in response to UV irradiation. New bi-functional epoxy based monomers bearing o-nitrobenzyl ester groups are synthesized and thermally cured with an anhydride hardener to yield photosensitive polymers and duromers. The UV induced changes in solubility are exploited for the preparation of positive-type photoresists. Thin patterned films are obtained by photolithographic processes and characterized by microscopic techniques. The results evidence that sensitive resist materials with good resolution and high contrast behavior can be accomplished. Along with resist technology, the applicability of o-nitrobenzyl chemistry in the design of recyclable polymer materials with thicknesses in the millimeter range is evaluated. By monitoring the thermo-mechanical properties upon UV illumination, a distinctive depletion of storage modulus and glass transition temperature is observed with increasing exposure dose. Additionally, single fiber pull-out tests are carried out revealing a significant decrease of the interfacial adhesion at the fiber-matrix interface due to the phototriggered cleavage reaction.

Particularly, we investigate experimentally the influence of thermal inertia of an electrically conductive film on the efficiency of thermal airborne ultrasound generation predicted by the EDF-model. Unlike widely used theories, the EDF-model predicts that the thermal inertia of the electrically conductive film is a frequency-dependent parameter. Its influence grows non-linearly with the increase of excitation frequency and reduces the efficiency of the ultrasound generation. Thus, this parameter is the major limiting factor for the efficient thermal airborne ultrasound generation in the MHz-range. To verify this theoretical prediction experimentally, five thermo-acoustic emitter samples consisting of Indium-Tin-Oxide (ITO) coatings of different thicknesses (from 65 nm to 1.44 lm) on quartz glass substrates were tested for airborne ultrasound generation in a frequency range from 10 kHz to 800 kHz. For the measurement of thermally generated sound pressures a laser Doppler vibrometer combined with a 12 lm thin polyethylene foil was used as the sound pressure detector. All tested thermo-acoustic emitter samples showed a resonance-free frequency response in the entire tested frequency range. The thermal inertia of the heat producing film acts as a low-pass filter and reduces the generated sound pressure with the increasing excitation frequency and the ITO film thickness. The difference of generated sound pressure levels for samples with 65 nm and 1.44 lm thickness is in the order of about 6 dB at 50 kHz and of about 12 dB at 500 kHz. A comparison of sound pressure levels measured experimentally and those predicted by the EDF-model shows for all tested emitter samples a relative error of less than ±6%. Thus, experimental results confirm the prediction of the EDF-model and show that the model can be applied for design and optimization of thermo-acoustic airborne ultrasound emitters.

Compared to conventional methods the Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) provides significant advantages for analysis of heterogeneous, mineral building materials as e.g. concrete. Besides providing the possibility to quantify element concentrations and distributions in building materials, this technique enables also to differentiate concentrations within different phases of the material. It is possible to determine sodium concentrations and distribution directly, which e.g. is important when regarding Alkali-Silica-Reaction (ASR). Sodium contents provided by the aggregates can be distinguished from those provided by the concrete matrix. The present article is concerned with the advantages and disadvantages of LIBS as alternative method for chemical analysis of building materials.

The amplitude and the phase angle of the differential voltage were obtained as a measure of the complex heat capacity. In a traditional data analysis, the dynamic glass transition temperature Tg is estimated from the phase angle. These data showed no thickness dependency on Tg down to 22 nm (error of the measurement of ±3 K). A derivative-based method was established, evidencing a decrease in Tg with decreasing thickness up to 7 K, which can be explained by a surface layer. For ultrathin films, data showed broadening at the lower temperature side of the spectra, supporting the existence of a surface layer. Finally, temperature dependence of the heat capacity in the glassy and liquid states changes with film thickness, which can be considered as a confinement effect.

Three types of surface finishes with mean roughness Ra ranging from nano- to micro-scale were investigated. Tribo-sintering of nanopartides, oxidation of counterface steel and compaction of wear debris are identified to be competing factors dominating the formation and function of the tribofilms. Counterface topography played an important role on the competing factors, and thereby influenced significantly the final structure, the load-carrying capability and the lubrication performance of the tribofilms.

T1 - Electrochemical investigations regarding the influence of deformation-induced martensite on the corrosion behaviour of austenitic stainless steels N2 - Contents of deformation-induced martensite in the lattice structure of austenitic stainless steels lead to an either beneficial or detrimental change of mechanical and magnetic properties depending on the prospective application. Whereas these changes are well-known and investigated widely the influence of deformation-induced martensite on the corrosion behaviour is frequently an issue of scientific discussions. There are opposing opinions that depend on the type of corrosion mechanism being investigated for example regarding pitting corrosion resistance in Chloride containing media. In it is stated that pitting resistance is not influenced by deformationinduced martensite while in it is discussed that more pitting occurs on martensitic structure. The same conflictive opinions appear regarding active dissolution in acidic media or intergranular corrosion. In addition, when having deeper insight into literature it can be concluded that even the type of test method, i. e. dynamic or static testing, has a big influence on the obtained results concerning the influence of martensite in austenitic stainless steels.

The vacuum cap presented in this article uses a local reduced ambient pressure environment in a tight zone around the welding area and, in contrast to a conventional vacuum chamber, it is movable in the welding direction. The mobile installation is very compact and reaches pressure values of around 200 mbar. The reduced pressure in the vacuum cap is sufficient to generate 50 % higher penetration depth in comparison to welding under ambient pressure conditions. The low pressure around the keyhole reduces the vapour-plasma plume and therefore prevents a defocusing and scattering of the laser radiation. This allows to raise the amount of laser beam power entering the keyhole as well as the effective power density.

The manufacturing process of the PC mPOF consists of multiple consecutive stages, such as casting of pol-ymer granulates into a solid rod, machining and drilling of a 3-ring hexagonal lattice of holes into it, and finally drawing into fiber. We demonstrate that the obtained PC mPOF is photosensitive and FBGs can be conveniently inscribed into it, thereby enabling FBG-based temperature and strain sensing. The PC optical fibers are for some applications an attractive alternative to conventional materials used in POF fabrication, such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). In general, PC can be used at temperature up to 120 °C and breaks at considerably higher strains than PMMA.

Two types of panels were investigated in this scope of work. The first sandwich element was a textile reinforced concrete (TRC) panel with cellular lightweight concrete insulation and the second configuration was an ultra-high performances concrete (UHPC) panel with aerated autoclaved concrete insulation. The goal was to obtain a reliable numerical strategy that represents a reasonable compromise in terms of sufficient accuracy of the element characteristics and the computational costs. The results show the possibility of describing the composite action in a full sandwich panel.

The roughness parameters of the cast iron discs were varied by electro discharge machining (EDM) and grinding processes, producing four distinct surface roughness conditions. The evolution of the friction coefficient, however, did not reach the steady state for most of the samples and the role of the surface roughness on the friction coefficient could not be identified. Focused ion beam (FIB) microscopy on the cast iron discs was carried out to investigate the microstructure of the discs near the tribosurface. These results showed that the EDM process not only varied the surface roughness, but also changed the microstructure of the cast iron discs, promoting the incipient fusion of the cast iron surface, with the formation of ridges and casting defects (pores). As a result, a layer of rapidly solidified metal with a dendritic microstructure was formed near to the surface of the EDMed discs.

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.

These guidelines represent a framework that defines resource efficiency and outlines considerations for the producing industry. A special guideline for SMEs is included as well as guidelines on methodologies for evaluating resource use indicators, such as the cumulative raw material demand of products and production systems. Resource efficiency, defined here as the ratio of specific quantifiable use to natural resource consumption, can be evaluated by defining a function which expresses the specific use and quantifies the resource requirements through a set of indicators (use of raw materials, energy, water, land and ecosystem services including sinks). The results from this also depend on the system boundary parameters and the allocation rules for by-products and waste treatment options. Optimising resource use is possible at all stages of a product’s or production system’s life cycle chain (raw material extraction, production and manufacturing, use and consumption, and the end-of-life stage). VDI guidelines are widely accepted across Germany’s industrial sector and therefore represent an important means of mainstreaming resource efficiency in this target area. As well as providing a methodological framework, the guidelines describe strategies and measures towards increasing resource efficiency, and they enable industrial producers and service providers to identify potential areas of improvement. The full article presents an overview of the methodology and contents of these guidelines and discusses their impact in achieving absolute reductions in the industrial use of natural resources.

A1 - Philipp, Rosemarie T1 - Développement et validation d’une méthode de référence pour l’analyse des HAP dans l’eau totale dans le contexte de la DCE T1 - Development and validation of a reference method for the analysis of PAHs in whole water in accordance to the WFD N2 - Afin de garantir la qualité des eaux en Europe, la Commission Européenne a demandé aux États Membres, de leur fournir des résultats de mesure comparables et traçables pour l’analyse des polluants critiques. Devant ces enjeux considérables pour la protection de l’environnement, l’apport de la métrologie est nécessaire pour améliorer la fiabilité des analyses et permettre la comparabilité des résultats. C’est pourquoi, le projet de recherche européen Euramet/EMRP/ENV08 « Traçabilité des mesures pour la surveillance des polluants critiques de la DCE, Directive Cadre européenne sur l’Eau (2000/60/CE) », financé par l’EMRP, avait pour objectif de fournir des éléments pour la mise en place d’une base métrologique. Des méthodes de référence primaires permettant d’analyser des substances dangereuses prioritaires y sont développées pour répondre aux exigences de la DCE en termes de niveaux de performance (limites de quantification et incertitudes). Les hydrocarbures aromatiques polycycliques (HAP), substances dangereuses prioritaires « orphelines » de méthodes DCE compatibles, font partie des polluants ciblés par le projet. Le développement et la validation de la méthode d’analyse des HAP dans l’eau totale ont été réalisés. La méthode qui satisfait au mieux les exigences de la DCE en termes de concentrations et d’incertitudes accessibles est l’extraction en phase solide (SPE) sur un support disque suivie d’une analyse par dilution isotopique associée à la chromatographie en phase gazeuse couplée à la spectroscopie de masse (DI-CG/SM). N2 - To ensure the water quality in Europe, the European Commission asked the member states to provide comparable and traceable measurement results for the analysis of critical pollutants. Considering the increasing environmental challenges, the contribution of metrology is necessary both for the improvement of analysis reliability and the comparability of results. For this reason the European research project Euramet/EMRP/ENV08 “Traceable measurements for monitoring critical pollutants under the European Water Framework Directive (WFD-2000/60/EC)”, funded by the EMRP, aimed to provide the elements for the development of a metrological basis. The project develops primary reference methods enabling the analysis of priority hazardous substances in order to meet the WFD requirements in terms of performance levels (limit of quantification and uncertainties). Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) – priority hazardous substances for which no DCE compatible methods exist – are among the three families of pollutants targeted by the project. This paper tackles the development and validation of the PAH analysis method on whole water samples. The method that best meets the requirements of the WFD in terms of level of concentration and uncertainty is the solid phase extraction (SPE) method with SPE-disks, followed by isotope dilution analysis combined with gas chromatography mass spectrometry (ID-GC/MS).

T1 - Aggregate reactivity and the efficiency of supplementary cementing materials N2 - The knowledge of dissolution processes of aggregates and supplementary cementing materials (SCMs) in alkaline solutions can help to describe the expansion of concretes caused by alkali-silica reaction (ASR) and the effects to avoid ASR by using SCMs in more details. Therefore, dissolution experiments in alkaline solutions under different pH values and different temperatures were performed using aggregates in the original grain size and SCMs in different ratios. The concentrations of soluble silica and additionally alumina were determined by ICP-OES. The investigations showed that up to now the “best” conditions to explain the damage behavior of concrete structures are a pH value of 13 (e.g. 0.1 M KOH solution) and a temperature of 80 °C. The evaluation bases on the parameter “excess silica” which is calculated from the dissolved silica and alumina of the aggregates and the SCMs. It was demonstrated that SCMs reduce and sometimes stop the dissolution of aggregates. The efficiency of the SCMs depends on their amount and chemical composition.

T1 - On the mechanism of ASR inhibition by Si and Al containing SCMs N2 - The use of supplementary cementing materials (SCMs) added to concrete mixtures can avoid the alkali-silica reaction. Such materials have a wide range of composition and therefore the inhibition mechanisms can be very differently. The effectiveness of SCMs which provide silica and alumina into the alkaline solution cannot only be explained by reducing the OH--concentration of the pore solution. From dissolution experiments in potassium hydroxide solutions, an interaction was noted between the aggregate and five SCMs via the alkaline solution. Under specific conditions, no silica is released from the aggregate grains. Mineralogical investigations (XRD, SEM+EDX) of the grain surfaces confirm that quartz is the main source of silica. In the presence of alumina providing SCMs, the quartz dissolution is strongly reduced or even sometimes stopped. On surfaces of grains a very thin layer can be observed which is probably responsible for reduction or stopping of the silica dissolution and therefore for the inhibition of ASR.

This showed that modern NMR equipment is also suitable for the observation of hydrocarbon samples in the expanded fluid phase or gas phase. Since Quantitative NMR spectroscopy (qNMR) is a direct ratio method of analysis without the need of calibration it was used to determine impurities in appropriate liquid and liquefied hydrocarbon isomers up to C6, which are used for preparation of primary gas standards, e.g., natural gas or exhaust gas standards. At the same time it is possible to yield structural information with a minimum of sample preparation. Thus, cross contaminations between different isomers of the observed hydrocarbons and their (NMR-active) impurities can be identified and quantified. In general, most quantitative organic chemical measurements rely on the availability of highly purified compounds to act as calibration standards. The traceability and providence of these standards is an essential component of any measurement uncertainty budget and provides the final link of the result to the units of measurement, ideally the SI. The more recent increase in the use of qNMR for the direct assessment of chemical purity however can potentially improve the traceability and reduce the uncertainty of the measured chemical purity at a reduced cost and with less material. For example the method has beneficially been used by National Measurement institutes for recent CCQM comparisons including the CCQM–K55 series of purity studies. Traditional ‘indirect’ methods of purity analysis require that all impurities are identified and quantified, leading to a minimum of 4 individual analytical methods (organic impurities, water, solvents, inorganic residue). These multiple technique approaches measure an array of different chemical impurities normally present in purified organic chemical compounds. As many analytical methodologies have compound-specific response factors, the accuracy and traceability of the purity assessment is dependent on the availability of reference materials of the impurities being available. qNMR provides the most universally applicable form of direct purity determination without need for reference materials of impurities or the calculation of response factors but only exhibiting suitable NMR properties. The development of CRMs addressing qNMR specific measurement issues will give analysts compounds ideally suited for the analytical method and also provide full characterisation of qNMR related parameters to enable more realistic uncertainty budgets. These materials will give users the tools to exploit qNMR more easily and enable them to speed up analytical method development and reduce the time and financial burden of multiple analytical testing.

T1 - Online measurements in a bypass: challenges and possibilities N2 - The design of sample flow cells, commonly used in online analytics and especially for medium resolution NMR spectroscopy (MR-NMR) in low magnetic fields, was experimentally and theoretically investigated by 1H-NMR and numerical simulations. The flow pattern was characterised to gain information about the residence time distribution and mixing effects. Both 1H-NMR imaging and spectroscopy were used to determine the characteristics of flow cells and their significance for on-line measurements such as reaction monitoring or hyphenated separation spectroscopy. The volume flow rates investigated were in the range from 0.1 to 10 ml/min, typically applied in the above mentioned applications. When compared to those commonly used in high-field NMR, the special characteristics of flow cells for MR-NMR were revealed by various NMR experiments and compared with CFD simulations. The influence of the design of the inlet and outlet on the flow pattern was investigated as well as the effect of the length of the cell. For practical use, a numerical estimation of the inflow length was given. In addition, it was shown how experiments on the polarisation build-up revealed insight into the flow characteristics in MR-NMR.

The nanometer-scale spatial arrangement of plasmonic metal nanoparticles and analyte molecules has a significant effect on the observed signal enhancements and represents a great challenge in this technique. In our work, DNA origami is used as platform for precise positioning of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Especially high sensitivities are expected for gold nanolenses (AuNLs), consisting of rows of three or more differently-sized AuNPs. We assembled different AuNL designs and determined respective SERS enhancement factors by collecting Raman spectra from single AuNLs. Finite difference time domain calculations estimate attainable electromagnetic field enhancements. Ultimately, we aim to develop a versatile platform for various SERS applications.

Experimental characterization of the thermodynamic behavior of gas binary mixtures is of great importance because most of the binary systems were taken into account by using adjusted reducing functions for density and temperature. Only for those binary mixtures for which sufficient accurate experimental data were available, specific departure functions were developed. For the binary mixture methane-helium no departure function was developed so far. This work studied the thermodynamic behavior of two gravimetrically prepared methane-helium binary mixtures through accurate (p, ρ, T) experimental data obtained by using a single-sinker densimeter with magnetic suspension coupling.

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.
