This is important, since the increasing miniaturization and performance demands for electronic devices have led in a growing need for advanced thermal management systems capable of handling rapid transient loads. The novelty of the work lies in examining different heat sink layouts that optimize the heat dissipation capabilities of GR42 PCMs while minimizing size and weight for electronic cooling. The experimental testing was conducted using three configurations, namely no fin, circular fin and hexagonal fin, with three input powers (4 W, 8 W, and 12 W). The experimental results show that the hexagonal-fin heat sink, surface area is 25 \% more than circular fins, exhibited superior thermal performance without significant variation in input power. Notably, the hexagonal-fin heat sink achieved the desired set point temperature of 55 ◦C in 33 \% less time than the circular-fin design and 45 \% less time than the heat sink without fins. Furthermore, the peak temperatures increased up to 21 \% for circular fins. During the charging cycles, the enhancement ratios vary from 72 \% and begin to narrow to 25 \% during discharge cycles. The hexagonal-fin configuration also exhibited superior melting dynamics, completing the phase transition 44 \% faster at higher input power than the circular fins, and established a thermal deviation of nearly 51 \% less than finless heat sinks. These findings underscore the critical role of fin geometry and PCM integration in achieving uniform temperature distribution and improved energy storage efficiency. Overall, the hexagonal-fin heat sink with GR42 PCM shows strong potential as a passive cooling solution for low-power portable electronic devices.}, language = {en} } @article{SulaimanSaberHasanetal.2026, author = {Sulaiman, Mohammed A. and Saber, Hindren Ali and Hasan, Hasan F. and Benim, Ali Cemal}, title = {Latent heat cold storage integrated direct evaporative cooler: A neoteric practical design for energy and water saving potential with thermal comfort improvement}, series = {Journal of Energy Storage}, volume = {143}, journal = {Journal of Energy Storage}, publisher = {Elsevier}, issn = {2352-152X}, doi = {10.1016/j.est.2025.119612}, pages = {20}, year = {2026}, subject = {Latentw{\"a}rmespeicher}, language = {en} } @article{deHaasMarcinkowskiKohler2026, author = {de Haas, Hella and Marcinkowski, Frank and Kohler, Sarah}, title = {Rethinking Rationality: Scientists' Perspectives on Health Communication After the COVID-19 Pandemic}, series = {Health Communication}, journal = {Health Communication}, publisher = {Informa}, issn = {1041-0236}, doi = {10.1080/10410236.2026.2620496}, pages = {14}, year = {2026}, subject = {COVID-19-Pandemie}, language = {en} } @article{MandalMannaBiswasetal.2026, author = {Mandal, Dipak Kumar and Manna, Nirmal K. and Biswas, Nirmalendu and Rudra, Tansu and Kumar, Rajesh and Benim, Ali Cemal}, title = {Enhanced heat transport in magneto-nanofluidic thermal systems: adiabatic block effects in grooved channels and ANN modeling}, series = {International Journal of Thermofluids}, volume = {31}, journal = {International Journal of Thermofluids}, publisher = {Elsevier}, issn = {2666-2027}, doi = {10.1016/j.ijft.2025.101515}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-60127}, year = {2026}, abstract = {This study investigates heat transfer enhancement in magneto-nanofluidic systems through the strategic placement of adiabatic blocks in grooved channels. Using CuO-H2O nanofluid in a bottom-heated channel with circular expansion, we examine the complex interactions between forced convection, magnetic fields, and uoyancy effects. Through systematic numerical analysis, we explore the combined influences of Rayleigh, Reynolds, and Hartmann numbers on thermal performance. Our findings reveal significant heat transfer enhancement (up to 137 \%) under optimal conditions, particularly with vertical magnetic field orientation at Re = 100 and Ha = 30. The results demonstrate how adiabatic blocks modify flow structures, with larger blocks diminishing vortex intensity while elevated Ra generates secondary vortices that interact with primary circulations. Magnetic field effects show notable dependence on orientation, with vertical fields generally promoting better heat transfer than horizontal configurations. To complement the numerical analysis, we develop a predictive model using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for Nusselt numbers across various operating conditions, achieving over 99 \% accuracy. The integrated computational-ANN approach offers significant advancements in optimizing thermal systems in various areas, ranging from electronics cooling to microfluidic devices.}, language = {en} } @incollection{Bleck2026, author = {Bleck, Christian}, title = {Healthy (Health-Equitable) Cities: Approaches to Participation and Inclusion in the Neighborhood}, series = {Chronic Care - Science and Practice}, booktitle = {Chronic Care - Science and Practice}, editor = {Schmitz, Daniela and Fiedler, Manfred and Becker, Heike and Habetur, Simone and Ortloff, Jan-Hendrik}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, address = {Berlin, Heidelberg}, isbn = {9783662722978}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-662-72298-5_50}, pages = {403 -- 413}, year = {2026}, subject = {Gesundheitsf{\"o}rderung}, language = {en} } @misc{Cosfeld2026, author = {Cosfeld, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Rapid Deployment of Hardware-Accelerated Vision AI Applications on the Xilinx Kria KV260 Platform}, publisher = {Hochschule D{\"u}sseldorf}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, doi = {10.20385/opus4-6081}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-60815}, pages = {119}, year = {2026}, abstract = {This teaching-oriented paper presents a structured introduction to the deployment of hardware-accelerated vision AI applications on the Xilinx Kria KV260 platform.

So far, health effects of long-term exposure to ambient ultrafine particles are not well understood, owing to a lack of exposure data and epidemiological studies. Methods We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on the health effects of long-term exposure to ultrafine particles, including studies published until December 2024. A meta-analysis was conducted for outcomes with at least four available effect estimates. Confidence in the body of evidence was evaluated using the Office of Health Assessment and Translation method. Results We identified 85 studies investigating various mortality, morbidity and subclinical outcomes. In meta-analyses of single-pollutant models, we found positive associations with natural mortality (hazard ratio 1.06, 95\% CI 1.04-1.08) and C-reactive protein (10.14\% increase (95\% CI -0.51-21.99\%) per 10 000 pt·cm-3 increase in long-term exposure to ultrafine particles, with low and inadequate levels of evidence, respectively. The remaining studies revealed overall limited evidence for adverse effects on a wide range of outcomes. Less than half of the studies adjusted for co-pollutants. Conclusion The evidence base on long-term health effects of ultrafine particles has increased substantially in the past decade, while the overall evidence for independent effects of long-term ultrafine particle exposure remains inadequate to low. More studies are needed to draw firm conclusions about the independent adverse effects of long-term ultrafine particles on various health end-points, with a special focus on the influence of co-pollutant adjustment.}, subject = {Schadstoffbelastung}, language = {en} } @techreport{SchmidVirchowWinteretal.2026, author = {Schmid, Andreas and Virchow, Fabian and Winter, Jana and Bittner, Jennifer}, title = {Mediator Training: 3rd German Pilot Intervention Assessment Report}, publisher = {DEMOCRAT}, doi = {10.5281/zenodo.18383656}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-60295}, pages = {13}, year = {2026}, abstract = {The DEMOCRAT Project's work packages are built on each other. This evaluation report is the penultimate stage of the complex Education for democracy (EfD) process designed, tested, evaluated and shared for exploitation by the consortium. DEMOCRAT has outlined a European curriculum for EFD, based on a shared understanding of what democracy means, as well as a competence framework for responsible democratic citizenship (RDC). The curriculum has been piloted in a series of interventions in primary and secondary schools in the six EU member states in which DEMOCRAT has operated: Estonia, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Poland and Spain. In some countries, the testing stage also included interventions in teacher training at higher education institutes. The national activities were designed on the basis of the DEMOCRAT competence framework (included in D2.1), taking into account preliminary national reports on education inequalities and the state of the art in EfD (D3.1) in the six participating countries. The national and local work that is evaluated in the present deliverable is also based on DEMOCRAT deliverable D5.1. (Design of local pilot projects (LPPs)), as well as on subsequently developed tools (see Annexed Guides) and includes the self-assessment of the pilot participants. A final elaboration of the national pilot interventions will be done when they are compiled into the DEMOCRAT Toolbox (D6.1., under preparation). The results of the assessment of the national intervention were presented in the deliverable D5.2 and the results of the comparison of the intervention in the deliverable D5.3). It is worth noting that the various pilots/interventions, because of their limited scale and duration, are not considered as providing strictly scientific evidence about the efficiency and effectiveness of the learning approaches used in terms of RDC competence development. For the DEMOCRAT Project, the primary objective was to test and further develop the competence framework and the assessment tools, as well as to obtain insights of possible success and hindering factors for novel approaches in Education for Democracy. Pilots show that the school heads and teachers have a crucial role in education for democracy and that they can contribute significantly, as agents of research and development, as well as implementation.

Due to this confounding of data and methods, it is difficult to assess the suitability of statistical modelling techniques used in the literature. Therefore, five different methods and two performance metrics were applied to three existing soundscape datasets to model soundscape Pleasantness and Eventfulness based on seven acoustic and three sociodemographic predictors. Datasets differed in soundscape type (urban outdoor vs indoor), experimental setting (field- vs lab-based), size, and study design (site- vs person-centered). The fixed-effects and mixed-effects methods ranged from linear to nonlinear regression based on advanced machine learning approaches. Results showed that models performed better for Eventfulness than for Pleasantness in most cases, while performance as measured by the out-of-sample R2 was dependent on the total variance of the target, especially in both field studies with imbalanced targets and groups. Nonlinear methods consistently outperformed linear regression, with random forest and extreme gradient boosting performing particularly well, while the performance levels of all nonlinear methods remained comparable. Mixed-effects models provided a more generalized, albeit slightly smaller prediction performance when tested on unknown groups.

Mod-SbSG enhances cooperative decision-making among self-learning agents within production systems by integrating State-based Potential Games (SbPG) with Stackelberg games. This hierarchical structure assigns more important modules of the manufacturing system a first-mover advantage, while less important modules respond optimally to the leaders' decisions. This decision-making process differs from typical multi-agent learning algorithms in manufacturing systems, where decisions are made simultaneously. We provide convergence guarantees for the novel game structure and design learning algorithms to account for the hierarchical game structure. We further analyse the effects of single-leader/multiple-follower and multiple-leader/multiple-follower scenarios within a Mod-SbSG. To assess its effectiveness, we implement and test Mod-SbSG in an industrial control setting using two laboratory-scale testbeds featuring sequential and serial parallel processes. The proposed approach delivers promising results compared to the vanilla SbPG, which reduces overflow by 97.1\%, and in some cases, prevents overflow entirely.

A process of interest is the production of 1,3-butadiene (BD), which is primarily derived as a by-product of naphtha steam cracking. A sustainable alternative path involves converting renewable ethanol to BD via the Lebedev process, which requires a catalyst with balanced redox, acidic, and basic sites. Due to the necessity of a multifunctional catalyst, existing materials for this reaction are either comprised of catalyst mixtures or supported catalysts. In this study, we introduce a bulk material, saponite, containing M-O-Si sites, which combine required catalytic sites for the ethanol to BD (ETB) reaction in one material. The product composition in ethanol conversion were strongly dependent on the type of 3d-metal used, while no conclusive correlation between surface properties, conversion, and product composition was observed. Herein, using V-Sap*, we achieved an ethene productivity of 448 gethene kgcat-1 h-1 (74\%) at 573.15 K. High acetaldehyde productivity was maintained with Cu-Sap* (466 gAcA kgcat-1 h-1, 49\%) at 573.15 K and Zn-Sap (528 gAcA kgcat-1 h-1, 55\%) at 723.15 K.

The horizontal walls are insulated. The cavity is occupied with Cu-Al2O3/water-based hybrid nanofluid and porous substances under the impact of the evenly applied horizontal magnetic field. This work significantly contributes to the existing research rendering an exhaustive understanding of the hydrothermal flow-physics as well as irreversibility production of a hybrid nanofluid in the cavity having surface undulation. The Galerkin weighted finite element method is utilized to solve the mathematical model. The hydrothermal performance of the thermal system is considerably influenced by various pertinent factors such as Darcy-Rayleigh number, Darcy number, Hartmann number, and number of undulations. The wall undulations have a critical role in altering the hydrothermal performance. Heatlines are used to analyse heat transport dynamics from the protruded hot surface to the heat sink. The protruded heater wall induces the formation of a hot upward plume in the nearest fluid layers. The flow divides into two parts forming a pair of circulations due to symmetrical cooling at the sidewalls. The flow behaviours are significantly dampened by increasing the Hartmann number.

Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) is the leading technique for high-throughput elucidation of molecular structures.

As a result, the vast majority of acquired MS/MS spectra remain uninterpreted, thereby limiting our understanding of the underlying (bio)chemical processes. Despite decades of progress in machine learning applications for predicting molecular structures from MS/MS spectra, the development of new methods is severely hindered by the lack of standard datasets and evaluation protocols.

It includes new evaluation metrics and a generalization-demanding data split, therefore standardizing the MS/MS annotation tasks and rendering the problem accessible to the broad machine learning community.

The aim of the present study is to explain the effect of the impinging jet configuration of elongated jet holes on the heat transfer distribution with a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). CNNs preserve spatial relationships through convolutional operations—unlike traditional Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), which require flattening of input data—allowing for higher accuracy with smaller datasets and faster training due to fewer trainable parameters. The goal is to understand how accurate and fast deep learning models with limited data can deliver predictions for complex systems such as jet impingement cooling. The proposed CNN model was compared with the numerical and experimental data. Jet impingement cooling was examined with four different Reynolds numbers (16250, 21700, 27100, 36250) and six dimensionless gaps between the jet and the target surface (G/D = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6). Mean and local Nusselt number (Nu) distributions were investigated in particular. G/D = 2 was selected as the test data for the model among the configurations. While the CFD model failed to identify this peak performance point, the CNN model accurately captured this maximum behavior despite being trained only on other configurations. Moreover, the CNN model demonstrated more suitable prediction accuracy in the first two jet impingement regions than the CFD data, especially in capturing peak Nusselt numbers and localized hot spots. It has been determined that the CNN model provided more accurate predictions of the local Nusselt numbers within the measurement region compared to the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) study for the average Nu, the proposed CNN model showed a closer agreement to experimental data than numerical simulation by 4.15 \% at the Re = 32500 and G/D = 2.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @article{PaluchWeilerEichelbergetal.2025, author = {Paluch, Richard and Weiler, Tim and Eichelberg, Marco and Hein, Andreas and Huldtgren, Alina and H{\"u}lsken-Giesler, Manfred and Meyer, Sibylle and M{\"u}ller, Claudia}, title = {AI and robotic systems in healthcare}, series = {i-com: Journal of Interactive Media}, journal = {i-com: Journal of Interactive Media}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, issn = {1618-162X}, doi = {10.1515/icom-2025-0010}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-52336}, pages = {3}, year = {2025}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @misc{ThielenFranzSalgert2025, author = {Thielen, Sven and Franz, Thomas and Salgert, Bj{\"o}rn}, title = {Data for from Lab to Market: Architectural Evolution in Open Source Transition}, edition = {v2}, publisher = {Zenodo}, doi = {10.5281/zenodo.15422048}, year = {2025}, abstract = {Research data for the Publication "From Lab to Market: Architectural Evolution in Open Source Transition".}, subject = {Softwareentwicklung}, language = {en} } @article{MinartzVondebergObertetal.2025, author = {Minartz, Peter and Vondeberg, Carmen and Obert, Laura and Bleck, Christian and Hemming, Bernhard and V{\"o}cking, Mara and Ose, Claudia and Znotka, Matti and C{\"u}rlis, Diana and Karrenbrock, Anne and Oehmichen, Frank and Heistermann, Peter and Kuske, Silke}, title = {Experiencing digital technologies: The importance of feeling safe in healthcare - A qualitative participatory design}, series = {Das Gesundheitswesen}, journal = {Das Gesundheitswesen}, publisher = {Thieme}, issn = {0941-3790}, doi = {10.1055/a-2560-1100}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-52945}, pages = {13}, year = {2025}, abstract = {Background Digital technologies are increasingly used in healthcare. In this context, perceived safety plays a critical role in their acceptance and implementation. Previous research had focused more on data security or specific digital technologies. There has also been a lack of participatory approaches to consider and empower healthcare recipients (and relatives), providers, and technology experts to broaden the phenomenon. Objective The aim of this study was to present a comprehensive perspective on the needs, influencing factors and related outcomes in the context of feeling safe with digital technologies in healthcare. Method A qualitative, exploratory, and participatory methodology was used with five guide-based focus group workshops. Each workshop explored one of five digital technology demonstrations provided at the beginning: (1) electronic health records (EHR), (2) robotics, (3) artificial intelligence (AI), (4) smart home, and (5) smart hospital. All participants were invited for a guide-based discussion. The study focused on the levels of 'involvement' and 'collaboration' by also empowering participation. The workshop target groups were actively involved in the development and execution of the workshops and were empowered. The data were analysed via a content analysis approach, with a mostly inductive procedure. Results Feeling safe was found to affect thoughts, emotions, and actions. For example, a higher level of perceived safety increased the acceptance of digital technologies, whereas a lower level of perceived safety decreased it. The corresponding needs and influencing factors differed in terms of their scope and focus depending on the context. The aspect of 'control' was most frequently addressed by all the target groups and was viewed as relevant in all the workshops. In general, digital technologies were viewed as supplements rather than substitutes for healthcare providers. Conclusion This study extends beyond the current state of research on perceived safety and the use of digital technologies in healthcare by providing a comprehensive overview of the corresponding needs and influencing factors at various levels, such as the individual, community-organizational, and system-society levels. The perceived safety of healthcare recipients and providers related to digital technologies should be taken into consideration to achieve positive implementation outcomes.}, subject = {Digitalisierung}, language = {en} } @article{JakabBarthelBraunetal.2025, author = {Jakab, Daniel and Barthel, Julian and Braun, Alexander and Mohandas, Reenu and Deegan, Brian Michael and Kumbham, Mahendar and Molloy, Dara and Collins, Fiachra and Scanlan, Anthony and Eising, Ciar{\´a}n}, title = {SOLAS: Superpositioning an Optical Lens in Automotive Simulation}, series = {Electronic Imaging}, volume = {37}, journal = {Electronic Imaging}, number = {15}, publisher = {Society for Imaging Science \& Technology}, issn = {2470-1173}, doi = {10.2352/EI.2025.37.15.AVM-101}, pages = {101 -- 1}, year = {2025}, language = {en} } @article{MuellerBraunKeuper2025, author = {M{\"u}ller, Patrick and Braun, Alexander and Keuper, Margret}, title = {Examining the Impact of Optical Aberrations to Image Classification and Object Detection Models}, series = {IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence}, journal = {IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence}, publisher = {IEEE}, issn = {0162-8828}, doi = {10.1109/TPAMI.2025.3622234}, pages = {1 -- 15}, year = {2025}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BoelterClaasDaehneetal.2025, author = {Boelter, Sarah and Claas, Oliver and D{\"a}hne, Judith and Heuer, Jan-Ocko and Kahlisch, Mareen and Koch, Katharina and Kr{\"u}ger, Frank and Lazarescu, Roxana and Lubahn, Antje and Reichwald, Julian and Reiter, Martin and Schilir{\`o}, Darina and Schimmer, Thomas M. and Schmidt, Diana and Schmitt, Kathrin and Schreiber, Felix and Schulz, D{\"o}rthe and Stiller, Gabriele and Werth, Robert and Ian, Wolff}, title = {The Role of Universities of Applied Sciences in the Development of a national Research Data Infrastructure}, series = {2nd Conference on Research Data Infrastructure (CoRDI)}, booktitle = {2nd Conference on Research Data Infrastructure (CoRDI)}, editor = {Sure-Vetter, York and Groth, Paul}, publisher = {Zenodo}, doi = {10.5281/zenodo.16735971}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-56313}, pages = {4}, year = {2025}, abstract = {The presentation highlights the role of Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) in research and their potential for the development of a National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). To address the growing need for structured research data management (RDM) at UASs, the FDM@HAW network has emerged as a potential connector between NFDI and UAS landscape. It aims to raise awareness of NFDI services across a diverse UAS network, and articulate UAS-specific requirements back to NFDI. In doing so, it strengthens mutual integration and fosters targeted support. With over 200 institutions [1], UASs constitute a significant part of the German science system. Traditionally focused on teaching, UASs have become drivers of applied research and regional innovation. Their contributions to education and research make them essential actors in shaping RDM in Germany. Research at UASs benefits business, science, and society. In many federal states, the right to award doctorates further reinforces their research activities. Strengthening RDM competencies is important to ensure that valuable research data from UAS meet the FAIR principles. Furthermore, employers benefit from graduates equipped with strong data literacy. Despite their potential, UASs remain underrepresented in the NFDI (and partly in the RDM community). Low participation in NFDI consortia and limited association membership indicate a broader lack of engagement, largely due to low awareness of NFDI among UAS researchers and administrations [2, p.42] [3, p.6]. The NFDI structure report 2024 addresses this gap and calls for broader contact to UASs [4, p.27]. Structural challenges limit UAS engagement in RDM and the NFDI, including high teaching loads, minor resources, and partnerships prioritizing data protection over openness or commercial interests. In response, many UASs have implemented strategic networking in research, teaching, and infrastructure to overcome resource limitations. This approach also drives the development of RDM structures, often via projects or state-level initiatives. The Federal Ministry of Education and Research supports 14 projects [5] through its funding guideline for RDM at UASs. This initiative led to the establishment of the FDM@HAW network in 2023, connecting these projects. Since its formation, the network has engaged in continuous exchange on RDM development and contributed to events such as Love Data Week, the FORTRAMA conference [6], Volkswagen Foundation's Digital Skills in Science Week [7] and E-Science-Tage [8]. These activities have helped sharpen the network's focus, identify shared priorities and integrate new members. Members contribute ideas, tools and services developed in RDM projects or collaborations - such as the "NFDI Survival Kit" [9] and the "NFDI-N(HAW)igator" [10] - to promote RDM awareness and inform about NFDI on a national scale. In line with NFDI's mission to "improv[e] the possibilities for using data for science and society" [11], FDM@HAW seeks to disseminate knowledge of and strengthen competence in delving into these possibilities. The network provides valuable support to activate a target group that has largely been untapped. Close cooperation between NFDI and FDM@HAW will then contribute to the successful development of a nationwide RDM ecosystem. In the presentation, proposals for cooperation will be outlined.

Real-time audio analysis and crossmodal correspondences were used as design guidelines for creating the visualization, which was presented through a head-mounted-display. To assess the impact of the music visualization on the audience's aesthetic experience, a baseline visualization was designed, featuring the same visual elements but with random changes of color and movement. The audience's aesthetic experience of the two conditions (i.e., listening to the same song with different visualizations) was assessed using the Aesthetic Emotions Scale (AESTHEMOS) questionnaire. Additionally, participants answered questions regarding the perceived audiovisual congruence of the stimuli and questionnaires about individual musicality and aesthetic receptivity. The results show that the visualization controlled by real-time audio analysis was associated with a slightly enhanced aesthetic experience of the audiovisual composition compared to the randomized visualization, thereby supporting similar findings reported in the literature. Furthermore, the tested personal characteristics of the participants did not significantly affect aesthetic experience.

Virtual reality (VR) offers innovative opportunities to safely practice everyday tasks, such as street crossing. This study was designed as a feasibility and pilot study to explore acceptance, usability, and preliminary effects of a VR-based road-crossing intervention for older adults. It investigates the use of virtual reality (VR) as an innovative training tool to support senior citizens in safely navigating everyday challenges such as crossing roads. By providing an immersive environment with realistic traffic scenarios, VR enables participants to practice in a safe and controlled setting, minimizing the risks associated with real-world road traffic. Methods: A VR training application called "Wegfest" was developed to facilitate targeted road-crossing practice. The application simulates various scenarios commonly encountered by older adults, such as crossing busy streets or waiting at traffic lights. The study applied a single-group pre-post design. Outcomes included the Timed Up and Go test (TUG), Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I), and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Results: The development process of "Wegfest" demonstrates how a highly realistic street environment can be created for VR-based road-crossing training. Significant improvements were found in the Timed Up and Go test (p = 0.002, d = 0.784) and fall-related self-efficacy (FES-I, p = 0.005). No change was observed in cognitive function (MoCA, p = 0.56). Participants reported increased subjective safety (p \< 0.001). Discussion: The development of the VR training application "Wegfest" highlights the feasibility of creating realistic virtual environments for skill development. By leveraging immersive technology, both physical and cognitive skills required for road-crossing can be effectively trained. The findings suggest that "Wegfest" has the potential to enhance the mobility and safety of older adults in road traffic through immersive experiences and targeted training interventions. Conclusions: As an innovative training tool, the VR application not only provides an engaging and enjoyable learning environment but also fosters self-confidence and independence among older adults in traffic settings. Regular training within the virtual world enables senior citizens to continuously refine their skills, ultimately improving their quality of life.}, subject = {Virtuelle Realit{\"a}t}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SerditovaTangSteffens2025, author = {Serditova, Dana and Tang, Kevin and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Automatic Speech Recognition Biases in Newcastle English: an Error Analysis}, series = {Interspeech 2025, 17 - 21 August in Rotterdam}, booktitle = {Interspeech 2025, 17 - 21 August in Rotterdam}, publisher = {ISCA}, doi = {10.21437/Interspeech.2025-1973}, pages = {3204 -- 3208}, year = {2025}, subject = {Automatische Spracherkennung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SteffensJoschkoGiangetal.2025, author = {Steffens, Jochen and Joschko, Marcel and Giang, Hien and Huber, Florian}, title = {Using machine learning to identify acoustic fingerprints of concert halls in classical audio recordings [Abstract]}, series = {DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics, March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, booktitle = {DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics, March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik e.V.}, address = {Berlin}, year = {2025}, subject = {Datenanalyse}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{VersuemerBlaettermannSteffens2025, author = {Vers{\"u}mer, Siegbert and Bl{\"a}ttermann, Patrick and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Nonlinearities in generalized models based on different soundscape datasets [Abstract]}, series = {DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics, March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, booktitle = {DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics, March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik e.V.}, address = {Berlin}, year = {2025}, subject = {Soundscape}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BlaettermannVersuemerSteffens2025, author = {Bl{\"a}ttermann, Patrick and Vers{\"u}mer, Siegbert and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Loadings of Acoustical Metrics on Soundscape Items and their relation to Soundscape Dimensions across different datasets [Abstract]}, series = {DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics, March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, booktitle = {DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics, March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik e.V.}, address = {Berlin}, year = {2025}, subject = {Soundscape}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ThielenSalgertFranz2025, author = {Thielen, Sven and Salgert, Bj{\"o}rn and Franz, Thomas}, title = {From Lab to Market: Architectural Evolution in Open Source Transition}, series = {Software Architecture, 19th European Conference, ECSA 2025, Limassol, Cyprus, September 15-19, 2025, Proceedings}, volume = {LNCS 15929}, booktitle = {Software Architecture, 19th European Conference, ECSA 2025, Limassol, Cyprus, September 15-19, 2025, Proceedings}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {9783032021373}, issn = {0302-9743}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-032-02138-0_20}, pages = {306 -- 322}, year = {2025}, subject = {Open Source}, language = {en} } @periodical{OPUS4-5477, title = {14th International Conference on Computational Heat and Mass Transfer}, series = {Heat and Mass Transfer}, journal = {Heat and Mass Transfer}, editor = {Benim, Ali Cemal}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, issn = {1432-1181}, year = {2025}, subject = {Numerische Str{\"o}mungssimulation}, language = {en} } @article{MandalGuptaBiswasetal.2025, author = {Mandal, Dipak Kumar and Gupta, Kritesh Kumar and Biswas, Nirmalendu and Manna, Nirmal K. and Santra, Somnath and Benim, Ali Cemal}, title = {Optimization of hybrid solar chimney power plants (HSCPPs): A review of multi-objective approaches}, series = {Applied Energy}, volume = {396}, journal = {Applied Energy}, publisher = {Elsevier}, issn = {0306-2619}, doi = {10.1016/j.apenergy.2025.126214}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-54199}, pages = {25}, year = {2025}, subject = {Erneuerbare Energien}, language = {en} } @article{deHaas2025, author = {de Haas, Hella}, title = {"God is more pro-woman than anyone in this world": Fundamentalist evangelical influencers as an anti-feminist defensive public}, series = {Publizistik}, journal = {Publizistik}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, issn = {0033-4006}, doi = {10.1007/s11616-025-00888-5}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-52201}, year = {2025}, abstract = {Counterpublics provide space for marginalised groups to voice opinions and experiences neglected by hegemonic discourse. This paper highlights publics that present themselves as counterpublics but which in actual fact reinforce existing hierarchies, particularly patriarchal structures. The case study of Girl Defined Ministries, a fundamentalist evangelical influencer duo based in Texas, links the research fields of digital religion and anti-feminist defensive publics, revealing parts of anti-feminism online that have hitherto been the reserve of digital religion studies. A consideration of the national history and religious developments of recent decades in the United States allows for a deeper understanding of this type of religious influencer. Girl Defined post content about their concept of "Biblical womanhood" on multiple platforms. In the present study, 56 blog articles by Girl Defined were analysed using qualitative content analysis through the analytical lens of the Social Identity model of Deindividuation Effects (SIDE), which reflects on how group identity is formed by simultaneously enhancing in-group and devaluing out-group norms. The findings demonstrate that Girl Defined portray the out-group, feminism, as an anti-God ideology responsible for the collective misery of women in Western societies, and hold women responsible for their own discontent by choosing the wrong path. Girl Defined therefore promote their in-group values, gender roles for women defined by God, and submission to men as the only way to live a joyful life. Presenting themselves as a persecuted and ostracised counterpublic to a feminist mainstream is central to Girl Defined's argument.

It covers the entire data flow from planning and generation to storage and provision. Measures for structured data management can be taken at all stages of the data lifecycle in order to use data efficiently, ensure its quality and guarantee its long-term availability. This diagram visualizes the research data lifecycle, which is divided into three main areas: planning and repurposing, generation and processing, and storage and provision. Each area comprises specific tasks and processes for handling data. The first phase, "Planning and Repurposing", contains two key elements. The first is the planning of the research project, in which the objectives, methods and resources are defined. Secondly, it involves researching and reusing existing data in order to assess its usefulness and potential for the project at hand. The second phase, "Generation and processing", consists of three elements, which are mapped in a separate circular process. First, data is collected and recorded, either through experimental studies, surveys or other methods. The transition from the first phase to the second phase takes place via this element, as this is where the basic generation of own data within the research begins. Secondly, the collected data is stored and organized to ensure its integrity and availability. Thirdly, the relevant information is processed, analyzed and selected. The transition from the second phase to the third phase takes place from this element, as the knowledge gained is prepared for further storage and provision. Overall, the second phase forms a continuous cycle. The third phase "Storage and Provision" consists of three elements. Firstly, the research results are published, be it in scientific journals, repositories or other relevant publication venues. Secondly, the data is archived to ensure its long-term availability and integrity. Thirdly, access to the research results is created, for example through selective access for certain user groups or increased visibility.}, subject = {Forschungsdatenmanagement}, language = {en} } @article{UruciFlorouPaglioneetal.2025, author = {Uruci, Petro and Florou, Kalliopi and Paglione, Marco and Kaltsonoudis, Christos and Picquet-Varrault, B{\´e}n{\´e}dicte and Doussin, Jean-Fran{\c{c}}ois and Cazaunau, Mathieu and Leskinen, Ari and Hao, Liqing and Virtanen, Annele and Bell, David M. and Mutzel, Anke and Mothes, Falk and Herrmann, Hartmut and R{\´o}denas, Milagros and Mu{\~n}oz, Amalia and Fuchs, Hendrik and Bohn, Birger and Nehr, Sascha and Alfarra, M.

To investigate this, a 2 × 2 between-subjects experiment was conducted to assess whether VR environments increase mental effort and thereby influence auditory perception. A real office environment was visually reconstructed in Unity and presented to the participants via a head-mounted display (HMD) and compared to its real counterpart. Participants in both environments were asked to retrospectively rate the loudness and unpleasantness of dynamically rendered binaural office noise scenarios presented via headphones and to report perceived sound sources. Moreover, participants were divided into two groups to induce different levels of mental effort. One group was asked to listen only to the sounds, while the other performed the Stroop Color-Word interference test in parallel. The results show no significant difference in the overall induced mental effort between environment conditions. Furthermore, performing the Stroop test had an effect on loudness and unpleasantness that was mediated by subjective effort. The results also suggest that auditory jugment depend primarily on individual sound properties, regardless of the visual environment.}, subject = {Psychoakustik}, language = {en} } @article{NeuhausRingfortFelnerFeitschetal.2025, author = {Neuhaus, Robin and Ringfort-Felner, Ronda and Feitsch, Jochen and Kempken, Gabriel and Dakhane, Sarvesh and Hassenzahl, Marc}, title = {"Virtual Unreality": Unreal Augmentation of Perception and Action Must Fit the Task to Be Beneficial}, series = {Frontiers in Virtual Reality}, journal = {Frontiers in Virtual Reality}, publisher = {Frontiers}, issn = {2673-4192}, doi = {10.3389/frvir.2025.1658463}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-58057}, pages = {12}, year = {2025}, abstract = {"Unreal" augmentations of perception and action (e.g., looking through walls, flying) represent a distinctive design opportunity in Virtual Reality (VR), allowing users to transcend real-world limitations.

As a result, many rely on empirical analysis to assign leaders and followers, without confirming if the selected setup is optimal. Therefore, in this paper, we develop an automated mechanism to evaluate the influence of each player on the global objectives of modular manufacturing systems, applicable to both single- and multi-objective scenarios. We validate the proposed approach within an industrial control scenario, using a modular Bulk Good System and its larger-scale arrangement with sequential and serial-parallel processes. We focus on three objectives, including production flow disruption prevention, power consumption reduction, and production demand fulfilment. Finally, we implement a self-learning algorithm utilizing Modular State-based Stackelberg Games, where leaders and followers are selected using our approach, which leads to encouraging results.}, subject = {Industrie 4.0}, language = {en} } @article{MuellerKoehlerHenningetal.2025, author = {M{\"u}ller, Romina and K{\"o}hler, Denis and Henning, Julia and Josupeit, Jan and Neher, Frederic and Hagen, Susanne}, title = {Well-Being, Quality of Life, and Personality in German Heart Transplant Patients}, series = {Open Journal of Medical Psychology}, volume = {14}, journal = {Open Journal of Medical Psychology}, number = {4}, issn = {2165-9389}, doi = {10.4236/ojmp.2025.144016}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-57415}, pages = {286 -- 297}, year = {2025}, abstract = {Background: Heart transplantation constitutes not only a profound physiological impact but also imposes immense psychological strain, necessitating a deeper comprehension and optimal promotion of subjective well-being. Objective: Quantitative data collection of relationships between the subjective well-being of heart transplant patients and selected influencing factors was investigated. Material and Methods: In a random sample of 97 heart transplant patients, quality of life was measured with the MLDL, subjective well-being with the HSWBS, social support with the SUCE-4, social activities, personality traits with the BFI-10 and the UGTS, as well as disease management according to the EFK, and physical complaints with the ERSD-SC TM were determined using an online survey. Results: In addition to physical well-being, social life, personality traits, the type of disease (chronic or spontaneous), and functional capacity have a significant impact on subjective well-being. Conclusion: In addition to physical well-being, psychosocial monitoring should also be established in transplantation medicine, and the long-term involvement of psychotherapists, psychiatrists, and social workers should be considered. After a heart transplantation, caring for the mind is just as essential as caring for the body, as subjective well-being is a product of the reciprocal influences of physical and psychological states.}, subject = {Herztransplantation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{EbertAckermannWeinzierl2025, author = {Ebert, Julian and Ackermann, David and Weinzierl, Stefan}, title = {Messung der Richtcharakteristik von Mikrofonen mit hoher Aufl{\"o}sung [Manuscript]}, series = {Fortschritte der Akustik - DAS\DAGA 2025}, booktitle = {Fortschritte der Akustik - DAS\DAGA 2025}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik eV (DEGA)}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-939296-23-2}, doi = {10.71568/dasdaga2025.178}, pages = {487 -- 490}, year = {2025}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Versuemer2025, author = {Vers{\"u}mer, Siegbert}, title = {Generalized prediction of quiet indoor soundscapes based on retrospective and in-situ judgements}, publisher = {Berlin}, address = {Technische Universit{\"a}t Berlin}, doi = {10.14279/depositonce-23962}, pages = {199}, year = {2025}, abstract = {This dissertation aims to enhance the understanding of how people perceive and react to everyday sounds, particularly in their homes. The focus is laid on indoor soundscapes and the interplay between acoustic measures, individual differences, and contextual factors. A retrospective online study and a field study at peoples' homes based on the Experience Sampling Method were the ecologically valid ground truth for four key publications. These address significant gaps in soundscape research by providing insights into the factors influencing sound perception in real-life contexts, the evaluation of low-level (i.e., quiet) sounds, and the consequences of (in)appropriate statistical analysis of imbalanced hierarchical soundscape data. The studies reveal that the sound source category is a critical predictor of annoyance and the pleasantness of soundscapes, with different types of sounds (e.g., natural, human, technical) having distinct impacts. Contrary, the effect of acoustic measures like perceived and calculated loudness on sound perception was expected to be high but was masked by contextual factors. These were the perceived control over the acoustic situation and the affective state of a person in the specific situation, proving context-related perceptual measures to be more important than the sound itself. The research consequently highlights the need for automatic sound source identification in complex polyphony everyday sound environments and suggests that individual preferences and liking of sounds could be potential factors in predicting individual sound perception. The dissertation also emphasizes the importance of using appropriate statistical methods, including mixed-effects models and nonlinear regression techniques, to generate more generalizable and more valid results based on hierarchical and imbalanced soundscape data. The findings underscore the limitations of traditional acoustic metrics and advocate for the use of time-series data to better capture the dynamic nature of everyday sound environments in contrast to stimuli typically used in laboratory studies. The author further developed a multi-objective function for avoiding both over- and underfitting during hyperparameter tuning, significantly improving generalized model fitting in soundscape research. Overall, this work contributes to the field of soundscape research by providing a comprehensive analysis of sound perception in indoor environments, highlighting the importance of context, individual differences, and advanced statistical methods in understanding and modeling soundscapes. Finally, future perspectives were discussed, such as the focus on individual preferences, experiences, and expectations for the improved prediction of individual sound perception.}, subject = {Psychoakustik}, language = {en} } @article{MackJanduraMaurer2025, author = {Mack, Matthias and Jandura, Olaf and Maurer, Marcus}, title = {The effects of constructive journalism: Towards a theoretical framework}, series = {Journalism}, journal = {Journalism}, publisher = {SAGE Publications}, issn = {1464-8849}, doi = {10.1177/14648849251395798}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-58634}, pages = {1 -- 20}, year = {2025}, abstract = {News media coverage mainly focuses on problems and conflicts, resulting in unintended negative consequences for democracy and journalism itself.

This paper first proposes a content-centered definition of constructive journalism, suggesting three dimensions: balance, matter-of-factness, and focus on solutions. Using a series of established theories, we then present a theoretical framework that models the impacts of the content dimensions in a chain of effects from emotions to cognitive and conative variables. Our approach offers a systematic basis for future research by enabling experimental analysis of operationalizable and empirically separable content dimensions and by integrating research on constructive journalism into a variety of established media effect theories.

The study extracted a broad set of audio features from these samples, employing recursive feature elimination to identify the most influential attributes. These were then analyzed using a machine-learning-supported multinomial logistic regression model. The results indicated significant differences in the acoustic features associated with credible speech compared to neutral and ironic speech. Key findings include the role of a higher energy level (1st mel-frequency cepstral coefficient) in credible compared to neutral and ironic speech and a higher speaking rate in both credible and ironic compared to neutral speech. Also, irony is characterized by more high-frequency content (mean spectral centroid) compared to credible or neutral speech. Gender differences in spoken irony involve a greater influence of speaking rate in women's speech, while high pitch plays a more significant role in men's speech. This research thus contributes to the understanding of how credibility is conveyed through speech and offers insights for applications in communication, media, and artificial intelligence.

In view of the challenges democracy is currently facing, at both European and national level, such as growing polarisation, increasing threats to human security and expanding digitalisation, it is important to defend and consolidate it, as a sine-qua-non element of "the European way of life". Education for responsible democratic citizenship (RDC) or education for democracy (EfD) for short is a way of doing so. EfD strategies and tools to strengthen the democratic agency/capacity for action of citizens, the youth in particular, through transformative learning, has been the focus of the DEMOCRAT project (March 2023 to February 2026). This Policy Brief was initially drafted after the seven first months of the DEMOCRAT project but is now being finalised with the experience of two-and-a-half years of project implementation in mind. Key findings and proposed policy actions presented here include: · To safeguard democracy within the European Union, transformative education for democracy must be reinforced, also taking into account fast-moving digitalisation and fast-breached planetary boundaries. · The shift to transformative education for democracy should be based on a coherent competence framework defined in complementarity with the frameworks of citizenship competences proposed by the EU (Key Competences for Lifelong Learning) and the Council of Europe (Competences for Democratic Culture). The four key RDC competences identified by DEMOCRAT are: Solidary Participation, Deliberation, Judgement, and Democratic Resilience. · The above competence framework should be translated by EU member states and schools in different parts of Europe into a sample curriculum for responsible democratic citizenship adjusted to their education systems and societies. · Schools have to be laboratories of democratic practice on a daily basis and across subjects, not just for a few hours of civic education or education for democracy per week, and need to connect with a conducive local, regional, national, European, global and digital environment. · Students need to be aware of both their rights and responsibilities, and be guided to act on both, within their peer groups and in relation to their teachers, parents, local authorities and other relevant stakeholders. A crucial aspect of any approach to education for democracy is the competence of the teacher to create an environment in which the students can learn democracy in action and not just in words},
