Numerous models have been proposed in human-computer interaction (HCI) to guide research and analyze effects. However, bridging the gap between experimental data and real-world applications often proves to be difficult. In the last decades, post-cognitivistic approaches have been developed to explain human cognition and the relation between humans and their environment. In this paper, we present a novel framework to systematically describe and analyze challenges in the context of HCI from multiple perspectives. It extends Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) and is enriched by contemporary philosophical perspectives (enactivism, pattern theory of self and post-phenomenology). The proposed framework is further illustrated by applying it to an immersive telementoring prototype system.}, subject = {Mensch-Maschine-Kommunikation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DeckertMohya2023, author = {Deckert, Carsten and Mohya, Ahmed}, title = {Tinkering, Tools and Techniques - Creativity in German Engineering Education}, series = {AIJR Proceedings: Proceedings of the 14th European Conference on Creativity in Innovation}, booktitle = {AIJR Proceedings: Proceedings of the 14th European Conference on Creativity in Innovation}, editor = {Heijne, Katrina}, publisher = {AIJR Publisher}, issn = {2582-3922}, doi = {10.21467/proceedings.154.2}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-51142}, pages = {11 -- 18}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Purpose - Engineers are expected to be the creative problem solvers and innovative tinkerers of a company. This article examines to what extent German tertiary education lives up to this expectation. The analysis of German module descriptions in engineering shows that there are no courses dedicated to creativity and that creativity and its techniques are mentioned only sparsely in the modules of the engineering curriculum. Surveys amongst our students show that they are usually familiar with techniques which are based on generating alternatives such as brainstorming and morphological box, but lack knowledge about techniques based on challenging assumptions such as forced connection. They tend to favour discursive techniques over intuitive ones and techniques which use generation of alternatives as an idea-generating principle. A combination of creativity techniques seems to be most conducive to creative output in our course. Finally, we present some first findings on creative sessions in remote work with the help of virtual whiteboards, which have gained in importance since the pandemic. Methodology - Firstly, we present an document analysis of the modules of Bachelor and Master programs of mechanical engineering at German universities and universities of applied sciences. Secondly, we present results from surveys in our Master course in "Innovation and Technology Management" where we gathered data from students over several years and performed an external evaluation of the output using Consensual Assessment Technique (CAT). These results include which creativity techniques the students know prior to the course and which they prefer as well as which techniques seem to be conducive to engineering creativity. Furthermore we surveyed their experiences with creative sessions as remote work. Conclusion - Overall, the article shows the importance to teach prospective engineers the basics in creativity. Students should have the opportunity to acquire knowledge about and apply different creativity techniques, as different techniques have different strengths and weaknesses and, thus, different areas of fruitful application. They should also have the chance to try out different modes such as in-person sessions and virtual sessions, as some of the future work will most likely shift online. Furthermore, a combination of different creativity techniques makes it more likely that engineers break through their usual systematic-analytic way of thinking and helps them to think outside the box to find creative solutions for the pressing problems of our time.}, subject = {Ingenieurstudium}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DeckertMohya2023, author = {Deckert, Carsten and Mohya, Ahmed}, title = {Teaching Sustainable Logistics As A Project-Based Learning Course}, series = {European Society for Engineering Education (SEFI), 11-14 September 2023, TUDublin, Ireland}, booktitle = {European Society for Engineering Education (SEFI), 11-14 September 2023, TUDublin, Ireland}, publisher = {TU Dublin}, address = {Dublin}, doi = {10.21427/9D3F-KA64}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-51182}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Sustainable logistics combines the task of the 6R of logistics (right product, right place, right time, right condition, right cost) with social and environmental sustainability, especially low emissions and low resource consumption. This means that a problem that is already challenging, namely planning, executing, and controlling logistical processes, gets even more complex and requires aspects of systems thinking to incorporate environmental and social impacts. Classical approaches of teaching, e.g. lectures with presentations and short exercises on closed problems, do not do justice to the complexity and intricacies of the topic sustainability. In such a context, projectbased learning (PBL) where students do group work on open-ended problems with real-world complexity seems to be a more adequate means to teach the subject. The paper describes a PBL course in which students worked on projects to conceptualize micro-depots for parcel delivery in different areas of D{\"u}sseldorf. A micro-depot is a temporary storage location in a city from which parcels can be delivered by cargo bikes. The aim was to locate the micro-depot, design the delivery routes, check the feasibility, and calculate the reduction of greenhouse gases and other emissions. The course was taught in cooperation with a partner from the courier, express, and parcel delivery industry. The paper describes the experiences with the course and gives recommendations for a successful implementation of PBL in courses on sustainability.}, subject = {Ingenieurstudium}, language = {en} } @misc{Deckert2023, author = {Deckert, Carsten}, title = {Review of: "Liberalism Caused the Great Enrichment"}, publisher = {Qeios Ltd}, doi = {10.32388/XZT5XF}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-51193}, year = {2023}, language = {en} } @article{MunnichDederichsKleinetal.2023, author = {Munnich, Patrick and Dederichs, Stefanie and Klein, Paula and Bruno Figura, Carl}, title = {Speech Intelligibility: Lateral Lisp Detection for Real-Time Monitoring}, series = {Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering}, volume = {9}, journal = {Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering}, number = {1}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, issn = {2364-5504}, doi = {10.1515/cdbme-2023-1071}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-49407}, pages = {283 -- 286}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Correcting lisps in speech can prove to be of great difficulty to many, as they may be unaware of whether they are lisping. To help those affected, we have developed a simple algorithm for the real-time identification of the sigmatismus lateralis in "S" sounds within speech via analysis in the frequency domain. The algorithm identifies peaks within the lisp's frequency band after calibration. A frequency band of 3000-4000 Hz has been identified to be generally accurate for lisp and 2500-3000 Hz for the correct pronunciation for a single male test subject. The algorithm splits given speech recordings into smaller segments and compares the number of lisps and non-lisps detected in these segments to categorize. From tests, it was concluded that a segment length of 0.5 s produces the best results. The algorithm does not detect every lisp section, however it does not raise false positives. Our implementation in Julia with multi-threaded per-file analysis is able to analyze 20 files of lengths between 5 s and 10 s within 0.21 s on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 860 smartphone chipset, meaning analysis is far faster than real-time. The proposed algorithm is a simple prototype algorithm capable of realtime analysis of audio in the frequency domain to identify whether lateral lisps are the dominant sibilant pronunciation in a given window. The method was only tested for a single test subject. However, a calibration algorithm capable of adjusting parameters to new individuals is proposed. The algorithm itself should be easily expandable to identify other speech impediments.}, subject = {Lispeln}, language = {en} } @unpublished{PtasczynskiBlaettermannGrebetal.2023, author = {Ptasczynski, Lena Esther and Bl{\"a}ttermann, Patrick and Greb, Fabian and Sterzer, Philipp and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {The vibe of musical and social reward: Listening to beat-based music acts as a surrogate for socioemotional support during the Covid-19 pandemic}, series = {Research Square}, journal = {Research Square}, edition = {v1}, publisher = {Research Square}, doi = {10.21203/rs.3.rs-2529116/v1}, pages = {34}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Music listening is subjectively efficient in surrogating socioemotional needs during the Covid-19 pandemic, although underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We here challenge the generalizability of music-based coping by testing whether the insufficient satisfaction of distinct needs during the first lockdown entails enhanced listening to beat-based music with medium complexity (BBMMC) stimulating the cortico-striatal reward circuit and triggering oxytocinergic propagation. A Quasi-Bayesian mediation analysis on open-source data revealed that, across 11 European countries, more severe social distancing measures evoke a decline in experienced social provision (SP), in turn provoking BBMMC preferences. The latter was best predicted by the SP dimensions of social reward and attachment, suggesting that the partial overlap in neurophysiological processing at dopaminergic and oxytocinergic sites enables BBMMC to specifically alleviate these socioemotional needs, which has important implications for the development of mental health interventions. Finally, a stress-alleviating effect of BBMMC was found pointing towards HPA-activity modulation through music listening.}, subject = {Psychoakustik}, language = {en} } @article{BenimCicek2023, author = {Benim, Ali Cemal and {\c{C}}i{\c{c}}ek, Ayd{\i}n}, title = {Comparative analysis of water and carbon dioxide injection for the thermohydraulics of an EGS project in Dikili Geothermal Field, T{\"u}rkiye}, series = {Bulletin Of The Mineral Research and Exploration}, volume = {171}, journal = {Bulletin Of The Mineral Research and Exploration}, publisher = {Maden Tetkik ve Arama Genel M{\"u}d{\"u}rl{\"u}ğ{\"u}}, issn = {0026-4563}, doi = {10.19111/bulletinofmre.1288731}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-49115}, pages = {91 -- 105}, year = {2023}, abstract = {A comparative numerical analysis of the thermohydraulics of an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) project in T{\"u}rkiye in Dikili area is presented. The fractured granodiorite is modelled as porous media, utilizing the numerically suggested data of other authors for the corresponding hydraulic characteristics. As the heat transmission fluid, two different mediums are alternatively considered. These are the more classical medium, water and the supercritical Carbon Dioxide (sCO2). Transient calculations are performed for a time period of twenty years, comparing the temporally developing results obtained for water and sCO2 with each other. Based on modeling parameters and assumptions, higher production temperatures are observed with sCO2, in comparison to water, implying an advantage for sCO2 usage as a working fluid in EGS. This is accompanied by the further advantage of a lower pressure drop for sCO2. On the other hand, the temperature advantage is relativized by the lower specific heat capacity of sCO2 causing a decrease in the production thermal power. In general, the present re found to be encouraging for a further and more detailed analysis of the employment of sCO2 as working fluid in EGS.}, subject = {Numerische Str{\"o}mungssimulation}, language = {en} } @article{StruweWredeVennegeerts2023, author = {Struwe, Julian and Wrede, Holger and Vennegeerts, Hendrik}, title = {Validation Aspects for Grid-Forming Converters Based on System Characteristics and Inertia Impact}, series = {Energies}, volume = {16}, journal = {Energies}, number = {21}, publisher = {MDPI}, issn = {1996-1073}, doi = {10.3390/en16217357}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-48751}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Grid-forming converters are considered a key technology for electrical grids with a high share of renewable energy.

They are based on simple black-box simulations that allow manufacturers to protect their development work. It can be shown that grid forming can be clearly distinguished from grid-following controls by their grid behaviour in the proposed scenarios. Extensive results illustrate this and also provide suggestions to deepen the understanding of grid-forming grid behaviour and its impact on system inertia.

In this paper, we investigated the complex interplay between room acoustics, soundscape evaluation, non-acoustical aspects of a restaurant visit and overall restaurant quality. Based on acoustical measurements and reports from 142 persons visiting 12 restaurants in Berlin, we propose a structural equation model including both acoustical and non- acoustical factors and yielding a good overall fit. The model, for instance, suggests that the A-weighted sound level negatively impacts the assessment of overall restaurant quality, while the effect of soundscape pleasantness on overall restaurant quality is mediated by the restaurant's perceived atmosphere. Moreover, the reverberation time was found to be effective predominantly through its effect on sound strength, which leads patrons to increasingly raise their speech level to ensure intelligibility. These results thus emphasize the need to design actively the restaurant's acoustical atmosphere beyond pure loudness reduction which involves a specific trade-off between comfort and liveliness, depending on the desired character of the place.}, subject = {European Acoustics Association}, language = {en} }
