Aufgrund von starken Belastungen durch den Zugverkehr mussten auf einer Eisenbahnüberführung (EÜ) mit schwierigen betrieblichen und gleisgeometrischen Rahmenbedingungen Schienenstützpunkte (SSP) saniert werden. Die ursprünglich mit dem elastischen Schienenbefestigungssystem ECF (Elastic Clip Fastener) versehenen SSP, welche in den Überhöhungsbereichen mit einem Polymerbeton untergossen sind, wurden durch die Kombination eines von thyssenkrupp speziell entwickelten Präzisionsstahlhöckers (PSH) mit dem Schienenbefestigungssystem ECF ersetzt. In einem Pilotversuch konnten Erkenntnisse über die Wirksamkeit des neuen Systems ermittelt werden.
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) seem to be the next big step into the future of mobility solutions. Various research institutions in the automobile industry and academic sectors are striving to come out with the most futuristic concept. This paper focuses on the interaction between AVs and pedestrians. Furthermore, the paper aims to explore if complex communication needs can be signaled to pedestrians through motion behavior of the vehicle.
In order to learn how other road users feel surrounded by self-driving cars, participants were confronted with different drivability of a self-programmed vehicle during our evaluation. As the results show, the vehicle's motion behavior is able to evoke certain emotions, which in turn lead to rational decisions within the participants. This can be seen as a form of mutual communication.
Roads overpassing highways or speedways are rather a common case, as such bridges occur in average every 2 km of highways in densely populated areas. Due to the high number and similar boundary conditions, the design and realization tends to be standardized and repetitive. The total length ranges mostly between 40 and 55 m, whereas the construction height is a limiting factor since minimumclearance heights must be guaranteed both for safety as well as for driving comfort. Due to these reasons, highway overpasses have been a field of application where steel-framed composite decks have proventheir efficiency for this task. Starting from Germany, the VFT technology (prefabricated composite beam) has spread in several European countries in the last decades as further development of the standard steel-concrete composite solution. Its configuration fits perfectly to integral frame bridges built over existing infrastructure with the scope to minimize the traffic disturbance. In this paper a further step is proposed: the VFT-RS technology. The change consists in using standard rolled sections by adapting them into the integral frame bridge configuration, further enhancing the structural efficiency with the benefits of high-steel strength. The possibility of weathering steel or hot-dip galvanization create the unique offer of a maintenance-free solution.
Starting from Germany, the VFT® bridge girder technology (prefabricated composite beam) has spread in several European countries in the last decades as further development of the standard steel-concrete composite solution. Its configuration fits perfectly to integral frame bridges built over existing infrastructure with the scope to minimize the traffic disturbance. In this paper a further development with the focus on cost efficiency in span ranges of 40-55 m is proposed: the VFT-RS technology. The change consists in using standard rolled sections by adapting them into the integral frame bridge configuration, further enhancing the structural efficiency with the benefits of high- steel strength. The constructive details to achieve the polygonal form have been studied to allow easy fabrication and a maximal clearance height over highway traffic lanes. The VFT-RS solution is conceived as the economic option of standard highway overpasses, with the aim of an overall construction cost reduction of 5%.

At the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, students are introduced to working with built structures in the field of practical building analysis in the master's degree in civil engineering. The basis for the existing analysis is the geometry, materials used and the structure. New structural calculations are required for modifications or extensions. The students are taught which non-destructive testing methods can be used to determine the material properties of the building fabric. In addition, it is presented how the teaching is structured and using examples that show that teaching can be designed to be very practice-relevant.
Die Fußgängerbrücke am Stern-Center in Potsdam wurde vor sieben Jahren in Betrieb genommen. Seitdem werden sowohl von der Brückenverwaltung als auch von den Nutzern deutlich spürbare Schwingungen beim überqueren der Brücke festgestellt, die Anlaß zu Beunruhigungen geben.
Ziel der durchgeführten Untersuchungen war es, das Schwingungsverhalten und die Schwingungsursachen der Schrägseilbrücke anhand von Messungen zu identifizieren und ein geeignetes FE-Rechenmodell zu entwickeln, das die dynamischen Wirkungen hinreichend genau erfaßt.
The study included six bitumens, one unmodified and five modified, and their corresponding asphalt mixtures. The first bitumen was the base bitumen and further five variants were made by the authors using the same base bitumen and different combinations of modifiers which included styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS), Fischer–Tropsch wax (FTW), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), reactive elastomeric terpolymer (RET), and natural asphalt (NA). The influence on the fatigue life of bitumen and asphalt due to modification, bitumen rheology, preload, water storage, and aging was studied. A new temperature range was developed—the fatigue-relevant temperature range (FRTR) for specifying fatigue test temperatures for bitumen and asphalt. A new methodology that includes preload and water storage was also done to study the active adhesion behavior between bitumen and aggregates and its influence on fatigue life. Overall, modifications showed positive influence on the fatigue behavior of bitumen and asphalt. Variants E (SBS and RET) and F (SBS and NA) showed the greatest positive influence with an increase in the fatigue life by 500% and 210% for bitumen and 200% and 375% for asphalt respectively. With water storage, the fatigue life reduced by 500% for unmodified asphalt and in the range of 333–1350% for modified ones. Due to aging, the fatigue life reduced from 700% for unmodified and between 700% and 2500% for modified asphalt mixtures.
