Ingress of moisture and harmful ions (e.g. Chloride, sulfate) into cementitious materials is one of the major factors in defining their durability. Modifications of building materials by targeted deposition of surface functional agents that make the surface hydro- and/or oleophobic aim to minimize moisture and ion ingress, and thus extend Service life of the cement based structures. Water repellent and easy-to-clean coatings for inorganic Substrates have gained strong attention during the last few years and various formulations based on silicones or alkylpolysiloxanes have been developed. Cementitious building materials are highly complex Systems with many components and changing properties in the course of a building’s Service life. The interactions between the Chemical agents and the cement based materials depend on many factors. The Chemical properties of the material Substrate appear to be the most important but in the context of their influence on the functionality of silanes and/or siloxanes these characteristics have not been well understood yet. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different blended cements on water repellent agents’ performance. Two organosilicon compounds
were applied on fresh blended cements containing limestone (L), fly ash (F), slag (S) and trass (T), and investigated in terms of their functionality.
The surface properties of functionalized blended cements were studied based on wettability, i.e. contact angle measurements, before and after exposure to artificial and natural weathering. The first results indicate that slag and trass more distinctly affect the water repellent Surface performance after aging.
DGZfP - Merkblatt elektrochemische Potentialmessungen zur Detektion von Bewehrungsstahlkorrosion
(2011)
Im DGZfP- Fachausschuss für zerstörungsfreie Prüfling im Bauwesen - Unterausschuss Korrosionsnachweis bei Stahlbeton haben sich die Universitäten München, Aachen, Stuttgart und Braunschweig sowie die BAM Berlin an der Überarbeitung des Merkblatts B 3: „Elektrochemische Potentialmessungen zur Detektion von Bewehrungsstahlkorrosion“ beteiligt. Das Merkblatt wurde komplett überarbeitet und bietet jetzt umfangreichere Hinweise zur Durchführung der Messungen und deren Auswertung. Wesentlich stärker als zuvor geht das Merkblatt auf mögliche Einflüsse und Fehlerquellen sowie die für eine Interpretation der Daten notwendigen begleitenden Bauwerksuntersuchungen ein. Die nachfolgenden Ausführungen greifen einige wesentliche Aspekte in enger Anlehnung an die Ausführungen des Merkblatts B3 auf. Das vollständige Merkblatt ist über die DGZfP e.V. online zu beziehen.
The goal of this study was to find a correlation between cleaning efficacy of substrates protected with anti-graffiti systems (AGS) and their porosity, surface roughness, and composition as well as usability of the Technical Testing Guideline for Anti-Graffiti Systems (TP-AGS, issued by BASt) for natural stone and brick/clinker masonry. The results showed that the cleaning efficacy mainly depends on the porosity of the substrate and the type of AGS. Also, higher surface roughness contributed to a lower cleaning efficacy. The results showed also that concrete panels and cement joints in masonry represented the worst case. The color change of all substrate materials compared to concrete was mostly within acceptable limits. Gloss changes were significant for a number of substrates. In particular, several of the wax-treated low-porosity substrates exceeded the threshold value of 10. The limit of water vapor permeability of the AGS prescribed in the TP-AGS might be too high for natural stone substrates. In general, the TP-AGS is useful for the determination of the efficiency factor of anti-graffiti agents on various substrates.
Die Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) führt im Rahmen einer Verwaltungsvereinbarung mit dem Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz (BfS) Bauartprüfungen für Behältertypen durch, die für die Endlagerung von nicht wärmeentwickelnden radioaktiven Abfällen in das Endlager Konrad vorgesehen sind.
Zur Erlangung einer Eignungsbestätigung einer Behälterbauart für das Endlager Konrad müssen die Antragssteller die Einhaltung der vom BfS festgelegten behälterspezifischen Anforderungen nachweisen. Zentrale Bestandteile der Bauartprüfung sind die Sicherheitsnachweise zur Behälterauslegung gegen mechanische Betriebs- und Störfallbelastungen sowie gegen thermische Störfallszenarien. Die Prüfanforderungen umfassen hierbei Stapeldruckprüfung, Hebeprüfung, Fallprüfung, thermische Prüfung (Brand), ggf. einschließlich Dichtheitsprüfung zum Nachweis der Einhaltung von Dichtheitsanforderungen.
Neben der Nachweisführung mittels sogenannter Baumusterprüfungen oder Obertragbarkeitsbetrachtungen können die Nachweise alternativ mittels numerischer Sicherheitsnachweise erbracht werden, sofern deren hinreichende Verifikation nachgewiesen wird, Dies kann u. a. durch den Vergleich mit hinreichend gesicherten experimentellen Ergebnissen geschehen, Die hier vorgestellten Untersuchungen sind Teil des internen Forschungsprojektes ConDrop der BAM, das zum Ziel hat, erweiterte Prüfmethoden zur Fallprüfung an Stahlblechcontainern für das Endlager Konrad mittels numerischer Beanspruchungsanalyse zu entwickeln. Dazu soll ein Finite-Elemente-(FE)-Modell entwickelt und mit experimentellen Daten, die in Fallversuchen ermittelt werden, verifiziert werden.
Although identified on the basis of so-called instationaiy creep-tests the constifrvtive model of Eurocode 3 (EN 1993-1-2, 2010) - hereinafter refened to as EC3 - represents a non-linear rateindependent relationship between stress and meclianical strain. I.e. the experimentally observed phenomenou of creep at constant stress but linear time varying temperature is described only through the temperature dependence of the material parameters characterizing the EC3 constitutive model. As a consequence some important phenomena cannot properly be described: E.g. creep or relaxation at constant temperature, creep or relaxation at non-monotonic temperature rates or sensitivity of the instationary creep process on the temperatme rate.

Paper is one of the most important materials representing and witnessing human culture particularly as a carrier medium for text and image. As soiling hampers the reception of information, paper cleaning techniques are needed. Traditional mechanical and chemical cleaning methods are used by conservator-restorers. In some cases, a classical cleaning procedure of paper objects yields unsatisfactory results or a conventional treatment is even impossible. Especially, fragile paper objects cause problems due to mechanical instabilities. Laser cleaning as a non-contact method might be a way to overcome some of the limitations of classical cleaning techniques. Laser parameters have to be chosen to achieve removal of the soiling without influencing the artwork. Any immediate as well as long-term effects causing an irreversible change of the artwork have to be avoided. At present, most laser applications are found in stone and metal conservation, while laser treatment of complex organic materials like paper is still not fully developed for application in conservators' workshops. This contribution describes recent work of pulsed laser cleaning of soiled model samples. Pure cellulose, rag paper and wood-pulp paper were mechanically soiled with pulverized charcoal in a standardized procedure to make model samples representing essential characteristics of contaminated real-world artworks. Afterwards, model samples were cleaned using short and ultrashort laser pulses in the nanosecond and femtosecond time domain, respectively. An extensive analysis of the model samples after laser treatment using an optical microscope and a multi-spectral imaging system allows a comparison of the cleaning results obtained with both laser sources.
The 9 meter drop onto an unyielding target is one of the important mechanical tests within the safety assessment of transport casks for radioactive material. In general, the cask is equipped with impact limiters to reduce the dynamic load on the cask body by absorbing a major part of the kinetic energy. The impact limiters are often made of wood or aluminium. In this study an elastic-plastic material model with volume change was used to describe the stress-strain behaviour of wood found in crush tests. For aluminium, an elastic-incremental plastic material model with Cowper-Symonds parameters for strain rate depending material hardening was used to model the adiabatic stress-strain relations measured at specimens at constant ambient temperature. Hereafter simulations with a sophisticated finite element model were carried out and compared with different drop tests. Four drop tests of a half-scale cask model equipped with wood and aluminium impact limiters with different drop positions were selected to investigate the impact limiter behaviour during a 9 meter drop test. All drop tests were simulated with the same FE mesh but under different boundary and initial conditions.
This paper describes a structural reliability analysis utilizing monitoring data in the ultimate limit state with consideration of the uncertainties of the monitoring procedure. For this purpose the uncertainties of the monitoring data are modeled utilizing a new framework for the determination of measurement uncertainties. The approach is based on a process equation and Statistical models of observations for the derivation of a posterior measurement uncertainty by Bayesian updating. This facilitates the quantification of a measurement uncertainty using all available data of the measurement process. For the reliability analysis in the ultimate limit state, monitoring data can be utilized as a loading model Information and as proof loading, i.e. resistance model Information. Both approaches are discussed with generic examples and it is shown that the modeling of monitoring data in a reliability analysis can result in a reduction of uncertainties and as a consequence in the reduction of the probability of failure. Furthermore, the proof loading concept is developed further to account for the uncertain characteristic of proof loading due to the measurement uncertainties which is consistent with the framework for the determination of measurement uncertainties. These approaches and findings can be utilized for the assessment of structures for life cycle extension and the design of monitoring Systems.
To ensure a high operational reliability of offshore wind turbines (OWEC) with economically acceptable repair and maintenance efforts, comprehensive diagnosis and supervision concepts are required. Automatic monitoring Systems will be an essential part of such concepts. Because of the fact, that during Operation there will be static and dynamic interaction between the components ‘structure’, ‘machinery’ and ‘blades’ it is necessary to develop the monitoring techniques in an overall concept. These monitoring Systems are supposed to be applied for the design and testing as well as for the Operation and maintenance phases. The knowledge of the dynamic behavior of wind turbines is important both for the design and for a safe Operation. The available monitoring data from a period of three years, allow first conclusions on the long-term Operation of such Systems in terms of quality requirements to the instrumentation to the structure and the rotor blades
Standardized test methods by which the efficacies of conventional Chemical wood preservatives against insects determine their toxic effects against larvae of wood boring beetles or their feeding prevention by termites. Although alternative control strategies to the application of biocides exist, such as interference with insect behavior during mating or when searching for suitable breeding and feeding sites, their acceptance, too, depends on efficacy evaluation. This is why new test set ups are needed which take behavior modifying control strategies into account. This paper will demonstrate how new laboratory tests must be designed or how existing Standards can be altered to reliably interpret insect behavior including its successful manipulation in a standardized format.
The geological storage of carbon dioxide (Carbon Capture and Storage, CCS) in depleted gas reservoirs or in saline aquifers is a widely discussed issue. Carbon dioxide may induce corrosion on the piping steels during compression, transportation and injection. Therefore,
selection of appropriate piping steels is a key factor in order to increase the safety and reliability of the CCS technology, and to keep the processes cost-effective.
The here described subproject of the COORAL project (German acronym for “C02 purity for capture and storage”) deals with the levels of impurities in the C02 stream that will be acceptable when using specific steels. Material exposure to carbon dioxide (C02) containing
specific amounts of water vapor, oxygen (02) sulfur dioxide (S02), nitrogen dioxide (N02), carbon monoxide (CO) can be a challenge to steels. Within this subproject 13 different Steels are tested for suitability as materials used for compression, transportation and injection Units within the CCS chain.
Fibre-optic sensors for early damage detection in plastic insulations of high-voltage facilities
(2011)
Fibre-optic sensors (FOS) have great potential as online damage detectors when integrated in HV accessories. Among their well-known use as temperature and strain sensors, there are some more opportunities of use, e. g. they can intimately be embedded in polymeric insulations of HV cable terminations and joints to detect and monitor partial discharges right at the location of their origin. Two FOS types for early PD detection were investigated: an embeddable fibre-optic acoustic sensor to measure acoustlc waves in polymeric insulations generated by PDs, and a fluorescent optical fibre to detect first optical effects during ionization processes in the insulation material. The paper descrlbes these methods, related monitoring Problems and shows first test results.
Fiber optic sensors are increasingly used because of their outstanding performance or if special requirements avoid the application of conventional electrical sensors. The scientific background for optical fiber sensors is well developed; however, the characteristic of sensors applied in rather harsh environment are almost always different from characteristics determined in laboratory or before its installation. In order to achieve long-term stable function and reliable measurement data after application and under harsh environmental conditions, guidelines for characterization and specification of sensor components are needed as well as methodologies for testing the sensor performance must be developed. Performance tests carried out revealed that there are still some restrictions with respect to long-term reliable use: first, some sensor products available on the market are not very often appropriately characterized, described and validated; second, application procedures are not always defined due to a lack of understanding the micromechanical issues in the interface zone between sensor and measuring object. Application procedures and profound knowledge of materials behaviour are necessary to get results from the sensor that can be reliably used. The paper describes first guidelines to prove the quality of fiber optic strain sensors, a testing facility developed for unbiased tests and certification of surface-applied sensors as well as result from comparison of commercially available strain sensors.
Residual stresses arising during welding, especially in high energy beam welding, can reach levels up to the material specific yield strength causing service life mitigating consequences through stress relaxation or stress corrosion cracking. A number of processes were developed like stress relief annealing or the low-stress-no-distortion-technique to reduce these stresses.
But such methods are only applicable for wider welds and simple component geometries or they are cost-intensive. The method presented in this paper uses the welding beam after welding in a defocused mode for heating the material regions in a certain distance from the weld on both sides. With this process it is possible to decrease the stresses in small welds with high stress gradients without any contact surfaces or additional equipment. Dependent on the component geometry and on the laser power it is possible to use different parameters for this process. The adjustable process parameters are the radius and the power of the defocused beam and the transversal and longitudinal distances between the welding and the defocused beam. In this work the mechanism and the influence of the process parameters are investigated by FEM-simulation and a number of experiments on the ferritic steel S355J2+N with 5 mm thickness. The best experimental result presented in this paper shows a stress reduction of about 73 %.
Die ZfP versucht mit Hilfe von Messdaten, die sie aus z. B. einer Impuls-Echo-Messung gewinnt, Rückschlüsse auf die innere Struktur eines Objektes zu ziehen. Bei Betonbauteilen sollen im Besonderen Verpressfehler, die dann zur Korrosion und damit zur einer Beeinträchtigung der Standsicherheit und Dauerhaftigkeit des Konstruktion (z. B. einer Spannbetonbrücke) führen können, schnell und mit einer hohen Sicherheit aus den Messdaten lokalisiert werden. Das konventionellen SAFT oder FT-SAFT-Verfahren liefern in Verbindung mit einer Phasenauswertung einen schnellen und sicheren Hinweis darauf, dass ein Lufteinschluss/Defekt vorliegt. Darüber hinaus können jedoch Rückausbreitungs-Verfahren, wenn ein gutes Geschwindigkeitsprofil vorliegt, eine wesentlich bessere Lokalisierung des Defekts bieten als SAFT-Verfahren, jedoch mit dem Nachteil, dass sie sehr zeit- und rechenintensiv sind, vor allem im Dreidimensionalen. Als Mittelweg kann hierzu die "One-Way"-Methode dienen. Diese Methode verwendet Pseudo-Differential-Operatoren und ist sehr robust auch bei relativ groben Geschwindigkeitsprofilen. Sie wird an Beispielen aus der Bauwerkdiagnose mit den konventionellen Verfahren verglichen.
Three new offset Delta11B isotope reference materials for environmental boron isotope studies
(2011)
The isotopic composition of boron is a well established tool in various areas of Science and industry. Boron isotope compositions are typically reported as 5nB values which indicate the isotopic difference of a sample relative to the isotope reference material NIST SRM 951.
A significant drawback of all of the available boron isotope reference materials is that none of them covers a natural boron isotope composition apart from NIST SRM 951. To fill this gap of required 5UB reference materials three new solution boric acid reference materials were produced, which cover 6096o of the natural boron isotope Variation (-20 to 40%oo B) of about 100%o. The new reference materials are certified for their B values and are commercially available through European Reference Materials® (http://wwrv.enn-cmi.org). The newly produced and certified boron isotope reference materials will allow straightforward method Validation and quality control of boron isotope data.
Eine stets optimale Nutzung von Anlagen, Rohstoffen und Energie in Verbindung mit einer guten Prozessführung sind die wichtigsten Voraussetzungen für globale Wettbewerbsvorteile der Chemisch Pharmazeutischen Industrie und für die Branchen Energieerzeugung, Petrochemie, Nahrungsmittel, Papier- und Zellstoff oder Wasserversorgung. Überlegene Verfahren erfordern die fortwährende Kontrolle der geforderten Produktqualität, ihre präventive Sicherstellung und eine ständige Verbesserung des Wissens über den Prozess. Sensoren helfen dabei, alle wichtigen Messgrößen an kritischen Stellen transparent zu machen.
Sie sind die 'Sinnesorgane der Prozessleittechnik' für automatisierte Verfahren. Allein aufgrund stetig wachsender Anforderungen an Sensoren ergibt sich für viele Messaufgaben die Notwendigkeit einer ständigen Verbesserung der Sensoren. Für völlig neue Aufgaben müssen jedoch neue Messprinzipien gefunden werden, weil heute noch keine Sensor-Technologie existiert oder die wachsenden Anforderungen nicht mehr allein durch Weiterentwicklung bestehender Technologien erfüllt werden können.
Ende 2009 wurden Anforderungen und Wege für die konsequente Weiterentwicklung und Verbesserung von Prozess-Sensoren aus Anwendersicht aufgeschrieben. Das Projekt wurde von NAMUR und GMA initiiert und gemeinsam mit Industrieanwendern und Geräteherstellern als Technologie-Roadmap 'Prozess-Sensoren 2015+' veröffentlicht.
Was ist aus den Wünschen seither geworden? Wie kann die Umsetzung dieser Entwicklungsziele von den Geräteherstellern wirtschaftlich und marktgängig erfolgen? Wie werden neuartige Forschungsziele mit der angemessenen Forschungsförderung am besten vorangebracht?
