It is our belief that context awareness has the potential to supplement the Internet of Things, when a suitable methodology including supporting tools will ease the development of context-aware applications. We believe that a meta-model based approach can be key to achieving this goal. In this paper, we present our meta-model based methodology, which allows us to define and build application-specific context models and the integration of sensor data without any programming. We describe how that methodology is applied with the implementation of a relatively simple context-aware COVID-safe navigation app. The outcome showed that programmers with no experience in context-awareness were able to understand the concepts easily and were able to effectively use it after receiving a short training. Therefore, context-awareness is able to be implemented within a short amount of time. We conclude that this can also be the case for the development of other context-aware applications, which have the same context-awareness characteristics. We have also identified further optimization potential, which we will discuss at the conclusion of this article.}, language = {en} } @article{WohlersMuellerBraun2022, author = {Wohlers, Luis Constantin and M{\"u}ller, Patrick and Braun, Alexander}, title = {Original image noise reconstruction for spatially-varying filtered driving scenes}, series = {Electronic Imaging: Society for Imaging Science and Technology}, volume = {34}, journal = {Electronic Imaging: Society for Imaging Science and Technology}, number = {16}, publisher = {Society for Imaging Sciences and Technology}, issn = {2470-1173}, doi = {10.2352/EI.2022.34.16.AVM-214}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-41479}, pages = {1 -- 7}, year = {2022}, language = {en} } @article{WittpahlDeeganBlacketal.2021, author = {Wittpahl, Christian and Deegan, Brian and Black, Bob and Braun, Alexander}, title = {An analytic-numerical image flicker study to test novel flicker metrics}, series = {Electronic Imaging: Society for Imaging Science and Technology}, journal = {Electronic Imaging: Society for Imaging Science and Technology}, number = {17}, publisher = {Society for Imaging Science and Technology}, issn = {2470-1173}, doi = {10.2352/ISSN.2470-1173.2021.17.AVM-183}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-35671}, pages = {1 -- 8}, year = {2021}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{vonBergSchwoererPrinzetal.2023, author = {von Berg, Markus and Schw{\"o}rer, Paul and Prinz, Lukas and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Analysis of physical and perceptual properties of room impulse responses: development of an online tool}, series = {Forum Acusticuum 2023: 10th Convention of European Acoustics Association, Turin, Italy, 11th-15th September 2023}, booktitle = {Forum Acusticuum 2023: 10th Convention of European Acoustics Association, Turin, Italy, 11th-15th September 2023}, publisher = {EAA}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-41955}, pages = {8}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Over the past decades, research in room acoustics has established several derivative measures of an impulse response, some of which are incorporated in the ISO 3382 standards. These parameters intend to represent perceptual qualities, but were developed without a consistent modeling of room acoustical perception. More recent research proposed comprehensive inventories of room acoustic perception that are purely based on evaluations by human subjects, such as the Room Acoustical Quality Index (RAQI). In this work RA-QI scores acquired for 70 room impulse responses were predicted from room acoustical parameters. Except for Reverberance, the prediction of RAQI factors performed rather poor. In most cases, the sound source had a greater impact on RAQI scores. All analyses are published in an online tool, where users can upload omnidirectional and binaural impulse responses, and instantly obtain and visualize several physical descriptors, as well as predicted RAQI scores for three different sound sources. So far, acceptable prediction accuracy is achieved for Reverberance, Strength, Irregular Decay, Clarity and Intimacy. Larger data sets of evaluated impulse responses are required to improve the model performance and enable reliable predictions of room acoustical quality. Therefore, the administration of RAQI evaluations within the website is currently being developed.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{vonBergPrinzSteffens2022, author = {von Berg, Markus and Prinz, Lukas and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Comparing individual perception of timbre and reverberance}, address = {Gyeoungju, S{\"u}dkorea}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-38706}, pages = {5}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Room reverberation alters the spatial impression and timbre of a sound by modulating its spectral and temporal characteristics. Thus, we argue that, on a perceptual level, reverberation basically breaks down into interaural differences and spectro-temporal cues and that the separation of a perceived timbre into a sound source and a surrounding room is a purely cognitive process. To investigate the connection between the perception of reverberation cues and timbre analysis, the sensitivity for changes in reverberation was compared to timbre perception abilities. The Timbre Perception Test was used to measure the perception of the temporal envelope, spectral centroid, and spectral flux of artificial sounds. Sensitivity for changes in reverberation time was tested with a discrimination task using speech and noise with speech-alike spectral and temporal envelopes as source signals. Musical and acoustical expertise was assessed through the Goldsmiths Musical Sophistication Index and self-reports on experience with and knowledge of acoustics. There was a considerable correlation between timbre and reverberance perception ability, but timbre perception and academic experience predicted only 41\% of the variance in reverberance perception. Still, perception abilities related to similar acoustical phenomena seem to be better indicators of listening skills than self-reports on acoustical or musical expertise.}, language = {en} } @techreport{Vogel2017, author = {Vogel, Peter}, title = {Investing as Random Trial}, series = {Trading}, journal = {Trading}, number = {1}, publisher = {Hochschule D{\"u}sseldorf}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {2567-2347}, doi = {10.20385/2567-2347/2017.1}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-11118}, pages = {39}, year = {2017}, abstract = {We introduce an investment algorithm for a market of individual securities. The investment algorithm is derived from constraints depending on investment parameters in order to limit the risk and to take into account an individual investor. One constraint is devoted to trading costs. Purchased securities are selected randomly among securities that meet the buy condition, making trading a random trial. Simulations with historical price data are demonstrated for a simple example: The buy condition is evaluated on the basis of the price relationship for two subsequent trading days and the sales condition is defined by holding securities only for one day. A trading expert evaluates the expected return for the investment algorithm with respect to the random selection. Thus, the expert informs precisely on how many market players perform using the same investment algorithm. Its findings are for a parametrized set of buy conditions simultaneously, which makes a trading expert a valuable tool for theorists as well as for practitioners.

While the formation of the lamellipodium is increasingly well understood, organizational principles underlying the emergence of the lamellum are just beginning to be unraveled. We report here on a 1D mathematical model which describes the reaction-diffusion processes of a polarized actin network in steady state, and reproduces essential characteristics of the lamellipodium-lamellum system. We observe a steep gradient in filament lengths at the protruding edge, a local depolymerization maximum a few microns behind the edge, as well as a differential dominance of the network destabilizer ADF/cofilin and the stabilizer tropomyosin. We identify simple and robust organizational principles giving rise to the derived network characteristics, uncoupled from the specifics of any molecular implementation, and thus plausibly valid across cell types. An analysis of network length dependence on physico-chemical system parameters implies that to limit array treadmilling to cellular dimensions, network growth has to be truncated by mechanisms other than aging-induced depolymerization, e.g., by myosin-associated network dissociation at the transition to the cell body.

The present field study therefore investigated whether sound pressure level, reverberation time, and soundscape pleasantness can predict factors associated with overall restaurant quality. In total, 142 persons visiting 12 restaurants in Berlin rated relevant acoustical and non-acoustical factors associated with restaurant quality. Simultaneously, the A-weighted sound pressure level (LA,eq,15) was measured, and the reverberation time in the occupied state (T20,occ) was obtained by measurements performed in the unoccupied room and a subsequent calculation of the occupied condition according to DIN 18041. Results from linear mixed-effects models revealed that both the LA,eq,15 and T20,occ had a significant influence on soundscape pleasantness and eventfulness, whereby the effect of T20,occ was meditated by the LA,eq,15. Also, the LA,eq,15 as well as soundscape pleasantness were significant predictors of overall restaurant quality. A comprehensive structural equation model including both acoustical and non-acoustical factors, however, indicates that the effect of soundscape pleasantness on overall restaurant quality is mediated by the restaurant's atmosphere.

We make use of a sample of all persons accepted for VR in 2010 (N = 36,645). We employ logit models on VR attendees' labor market outcomes three and five years after being accepted for VR as well as on their earned vocational qualifications. Beside initial poverty status, we control for educational level, type, and degree of disability and program pattern during the VR process. Our findings show that YPWD from poor households have a decreased likelihood of a vocational certificate and employment. Additionally, they are more likely to receive BIS than young people not from poor households and thus more likely to remain poor. In conclusion, VR seems to support poor YPWD less in their school-to-work transitions. Thus, disability-specific programs should be more tailored to the social situations of participants, and counsellors should be more sensitive to their social backgrounds.}, language = {en} } @article{ReichGottschaldRiegebaueretal.2020, author = {Reich, Marius and Gottschald, Jonas and Riegebauer, Philipp and Adam, Mario}, title = {Predictive Control of District Heating System Using Multi-Stage Nonlinear Approximation with Selective Memory}, series = {Energies}, volume = {13}, journal = {Energies}, number = {24}, publisher = {MDPI}, issn = {1996-1073}, doi = {10.3390/en13246714}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-33627}, year = {2020}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RakowKlessHasleretal.2023, author = {Rakow, Thomas C. and Kless, Andr{\´e} and Hasler, Charlotte and Knolle, Harm and Faeskorn-Woyke, Heide and Saatz, Inga Marina and Lambert, Jens and Focken, Mareike}, title = {Developing OERs for Teaching Database Systems: A Two-Year Effort of Four Universities of Applied Sciences}, series = {GI Edition Proceedings Band 331 "BTW 2023" : 6. - 10.

Although it is known that cytoskeletal coordination is vital for cell function, the mechanisms by which cross-linking proteins coordinate actin and microtubule activities remain poorly understood. In particular, it is unknown how the distinct mechanical properties of different actin architectures modulate the outcome of actin-microtubule interactions. To address this question, we engineered the protein TipAct, which links growing microtubule ends via end-binding proteins to actin filaments. We show that growing microtubules can be captured and guided by stiff actin bundles, leading to global actin-microtubule alignment. Conversely, growing microtubule ends can transport, stretch and bundle individual actin filaments, thereby globally defining actin filament organization. Our results provide a physical basis to understand actin-microtubule cross-talk, and reveal that a simple cross-linker can enable a mechanical feedback between actin and microtubule organization that is relevant to diverse biological contexts.}, language = {en} } @article{PfeiffelmannOezmanBenimetal.2019, author = {Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn and {\"O}zman, Cansu and Benim, Ali Cemal and Joos, Franz}, title = {Variable temperature effects on TEG performance}, series = {E3S Web of Conferences}, volume = {128}, journal = {E3S Web of Conferences}, publisher = {edp sciences}, issn = {2267-1242}, doi = {10.1051/e3sconf/201912807004}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27893}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{PfeiffelmannDiederichGueletal.2020, author = {Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn and Diederich, Michael and G{\"u}l, Fethi and Benim, Ali Cemal and Heese, Markus and Hamberger, Andreas}, title = {Computational and Experimental Investigation of an Industrial Biomass Furnace}, series = {Chemical Engineering \& Technology}, volume = {43}, journal = {Chemical Engineering \& Technology}, number = {8}, publisher = {Wiley}, issn = {1521-4125}, doi = {10.1002/ceat.201900637}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27747}, pages = {1538 -- 1546}, year = {2020}, language = {en} } @article{PfeiffelmannDiederichGueletal.2019, author = {Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn and Diederich, Michael and G{\"u}l, Fethi and Benim, Ali Cemal and Hamberger, Andreas and Heese, Markus}, title = {Analysis of combustion, heat and fluid flow in a biomass furnace}, series = {E3S Web of Conferences}, volume = {128}, journal = {E3S Web of Conferences}, publisher = {edp sciences}, issn = {2267-1242}, doi = {10.1051/e3sconf/201912803003}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27880}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{PfeiffelmannBenimJoos2018, author = {Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn and Benim, Ali Cemal and Joos, Franz}, title = {Numerical analysis of liquid jet impingement cooling of a thermoelectric generator}, series = {MATEC Web of Conferences}, volume = {240}, journal = {MATEC Web of Conferences}, publisher = {edp sciences}, issn = {2261-236X}, doi = {10.1051/matecconf/201824001032}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27988}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @article{PfeiffelmannBenimJoos2021, author = {Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn and Benim, Ali Cemal and Joos, Franz}, title = {Water-Cooled Thermoelectric Generators for Improved Net Output Power: A Review}, series = {Energies}, volume = {14}, journal = {Energies}, number = {24}, publisher = {MDPI}, issn = {1996-1073}, doi = {10.3390/en14248329}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-37323}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) have the ability to convert waste heat into electrical energy under unfavorable conditions and are becoming increasingly popular in academia, but have not yet achieved a broad commercial success, due to the still comparably low efficiency. To increase the efficiency and economic viability of TEGs, research is performed on the materials on one hand and on the system connection on the other. In the latter case, the net output power of the cooling system plays a key role. At first glance, passive cooling seems preferable to active cooling because it does not affect the net electrical output power. However, as shown in the present review, the active cooling is to be preferred for net output power. The situation is similar in air and water-cooling. Even though air-cooling is easier to set up, the water-cooling should be preferred to achieve higher net output power. It is shown that microchannel cooling has similar hydraulic performance to conventional cooling and inserts increase the net output power of TEG. As the review reveals that active water-cooling should be the method of choice to achieve high net output power, it also shows that a careful optimization is necessary to exploit the potential.}, language = {en} } @article{PfeiffelmannBenim2018, author = {Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn and Benim, Ali Cemal}, title = {Numerical study of the quenching of a laminar premixed hydrogen flame}, series = {MATEC Web of Conferences}, volume = {240}, journal = {MATEC Web of Conferences}, publisher = {edp sciences}, issn = {2261-236X}, doi = {10.1051/matecconf/201824001031}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27976}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @masterthesis{Obry2023, type = {Bachelor Thesis}, author = {Obry, Yannick}, title = {Music Streaming Adaption - Drivers of Behavioral Intention}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, organization = {Hochschule D{\"u}sseldorf}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-41326}, school = {Hochschule D{\"u}sseldorf}, pages = {31}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Music consumption and distribution has changed drastically in the last twenty years due to digitalization.

But as the optics of camera systems are spatially variable over the field of view, the performance of ML-based algorithms is also a function of space, which we show in simulation: A realistic objective lens based on a Cooke-triplet that exhibits typical optical aberrations like astigmatism and chromatic aberration, all variable over field, is modeled. The model is then applied to a subset of the BDD100k dataset with spatially-varying kernels. We then quantify local changes in the performance of the pre-trained Mask R-CNN algorithm.

These are web applications with "super-powers" which are meant to provide the kinds of user experiences previously only native mobile applications could. Therefore they are able to match native applications in their capabilities but still thrive on the reachability of the web. They achieve this by implementing certain characteristics which originate from innovative standards and sophisticated best practices. Conveniently, as it is the web, PWAs are working seamlessly cross-platform. One of the closest things to a PWA so far may be an application created with the NativeScript framework. Such an application is also developed with web technologies yet able to use any native interface directly. This is made possible by using a designated runtime for mediating between JavaScript and the mobile system. Eventually, NativeScript is able to offer a high degree nativity yet also of convenient abstraction during development. This paper is set out to deliver further insight into both approaches by contrasting them based on the characteristics of PWAs. For this purpose, these characteristics are elaborated and adjusted to be applicable to native mobile applications. Hence a reasonable basis for what to expect from a native application is derived. Then NativeScript is assessed on this basis by the means of transferable concepts and technologies as well as a prototypic mobile application. Finally, an informed discussion and conclusion is performed based on the results. The comprehensive characteristics of PWAs resolve previous shortcomings with well thought out concepts and new technologies. These are transferable to native mobile applications to a far extent and may also be put into practice with NativeScript. The framework's approach may be very well called ingenious, however, in the long run it might fall short of the innovative concept of PWAs. Having said this, it is still able to serve as a practical measure for creating appealing user experiences for multiple systems with arguably little effort. Due to large overlap a transformation between the two application types is a realistic option.

This paper is meant to evaluate current cross-platform development for mobile applications. The background for its necessity, its conceptual approach and the problems to face when developing cross-platform were determined and explained in detail. Afterwards, certain solutions were evaluated against the former insights. Based on the results, an informed discussion and conclusion was performed. The mobile environment consist of only two big players by now, Android and iOS. These operating systems differ in architecture, design and consequently in the way applications are developed for each of them. Therefore, high demands are made towards cross-platform solutions. Tools which allow for the creation of applications for multiple platforms at once have to match native applications in regard to user experience and performance. At the same time they need to be able to optimize developments with the goal of being cost efficient. Apache Cordova, Xamarin and NativeScript were selected for evaluation in regard to their ability to meet these requirements. Cordova acts as the comparison group of cross-platform tools. It is the big player in the field and there are reasons for this. However, aspiring solutions with higher nativity and ambitious approaches are emerging. Xamarin and NativeScript deliver top quality results while offering loosely coupled developments. Therefore it is possible to develop high quality applications and still benefit from the advantages of platform-independent solutions.

By additionally distinguishing between political and entertainment-oriented information offerings as boundaries of democratized online market conditions the analysis reveals that the Long Tail theory is not fully applicable to any market sample, and especially not to politically oriented offerings.}, language = {en} } @article{KampaFinkeStalderetal.2022, author = {Kampa, Miriam and Finke, Johannes and Stalder, Tobias and Bucher, Leandra and Klapperich, Holger and Mertl, Fabian and Zimmer, Christian and Geiger, Christian and Hassenzahl, Marc and Klucken, Tim}, title = {Facilitating relaxation and stress reduction in healthy participants through a virtual reality intervention: study protocol for a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial}, series = {Trials}, volume = {23}, journal = {Trials}, publisher = {BMC}, issn = {1745-6215}, doi = {10.1186/s13063-022-06307-8}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-40118}, year = {2022}, language = {en} } @article{IqbalPfeiffelmannBenimetal.2018, author = {Iqbal, Sohail and Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn and Benim, Ali Cemal and Joos, Franz}, title = {Numerical analysis of lifted hydrogen flame}, series = {MATEC Web of Conferences}, volume = {240}, journal = {MATEC Web of Conferences}, publisher = {edp sciences}, issn = {2261-236X}, doi = {10.1051/matecconf/201824001014}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27950}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @article{HuberVerhoevenMeijeretal.2020, author = {Huber, Florian and Verhoeven, Stefan and Meijer, Christiaan and Spreeuw, Hanno and Castilla, Efra{\´i}n and Geng, Cunliang and van der Hooft, Justin J.

Mass fragmentation spectra are generally considered to be characteristic signatures of the chemical compound they originate from, yet the chemical structure itself usually cannot be easily deduced from the spectrum. Often, spectral similarity measures are used as a proxy for structural similarity but this approach is strongly limited by a generally poor correlation between both metrics. Here, we propose MS2DeepScore: a novel Siamese neural network to predict the structural similarity between two chemical structures solely based on their MS/MS fragmentation spectra. Using a cleaned dataset of > 100,000 mass spectra of about 15,000 unique known compounds, we trained MS2DeepScore to predict structural similarity scores for spectrum pairs with high accuracy. In addition, sampling different model varieties through Monte-Carlo Dropout is used to further improve the predictions and assess the model's prediction uncertainty. On 3600 spectra of 500 unseen compounds, MS2DeepScore is able to identify highly-reliable structural matches and to predict Tanimoto scores for pairs of molecules based on their fragment spectra with a root mean squared error of about 0.15. Furthermore, the prediction uncertainty estimate can be used to select a subset of predictions with a root mean squared error of about 0.1. Furthermore, we demonstrate that MS2DeepScore outperforms classical spectral similarity measures in retrieving chemically related compound pairs from large mass spectral datasets, thereby illustrating its potential for spectral library matching. Finally, MS2DeepScore can also be used to create chemically meaningful mass spectral embeddings that could be used to cluster large numbers of spectra. Added to the recently introduced unsupervised Spec2Vec metric, we believe that machine learning-supported mass spectral similarity measures have great potential for a range of metabolomics data processing pipelines.}, language = {en} } @article{HuberStrehleSchnaussetal.2015, author = {Huber, Florian and Strehle, Dan and Schnauß, J{\"o}rg and K{\"a}s, Josef}, title = {Formation of regularly spaced networks as a general feature of actin bundle condensation by entropic forces}, series = {New Journal of Physics}, volume = {17}, journal = {New Journal of Physics}, number = {4}, publisher = {IOP Publishing}, issn = {1367-2630}, doi = {10.1088/1367-2630/17/4/043029}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-34833}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{HuberSchnaussRoenickeetal.2013, author = {Huber, Florian and Schnauß, J{\"o}rg and R{\"o}nicke, S. and Rauch, P. and M{\"u}ller, K. and F{\"u}tterer, C. and K{\"a}s, Josef}, title = {Emergent complexity of the cytoskeleton: from single filaments to tissue}, series = {Advances in Physics}, volume = {62}, journal = {Advances in Physics}, number = {1}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, issn = {1460-6976}, doi = {10.1080/00018732.2013.771509}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-34812}, pages = {1 -- 112}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Despite their overwhelming complexity, living cells display a high degree of internal mechanical and functional organization which can largely be attributed to the intracellular biopolymer scaffold, the cytoskeleton.

Spec2Vec learns fragmental relationships within a large set of spectral data to derive abstract spectral embeddings that can be used to assess spectral similarities. Using data derived from GNPS MS/MS libraries including spectra for nearly 13,000 unique molecules, we show how Spec2Vec scores correlate better with structural similarity than cosine-based scores.

One of the key aspects - both policy makers and the public opinion consider as most pressuring - is the determination of intragroup transfer prices for intangibles used in digital business models. In this paper, we address the issue of a "perceived fair" taxation of the digital economy in the light of the arm's length principle based on a survey with transfer pricing experts. The aim of the survey is not to estimate arm's length profit allocations but rather to elicit fairness considerations in different transfer pricing related scenarios. In a digital economy framework where arm's length profits are distributed extremely inequitably, subjects perceive this distribution of profits as most unfair compared to more balanced scenarios. Consequently, subjects propose a "fair" distribution of profits that substantially differs from the exogenously given arm's length allocation. In scenarios with a more balanced arm's length allocation of profits, we find that the perceived fairness for the expert groups increases while a control group of business students is almost not influenced by the arm's length allocation of profits.}, language = {en} } @techreport{GreilSchwarzStein2018, author = {Greil, Stefan and Schwarz, Christian and Stein, Stefan}, title = {Fairness and the Arm's Length Principle in a Digital Economy}, number = {42}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {2365-3361}, doi = {10.20385/2365-3361/2018.42}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-12029}, year = {2018}, abstract = {The OECD Base Erosion Profit Shifting (BEPS) Initiative as well as the current fairness oriented public discussion regarding the taxation of digital business models highlight the importance and complexity of the arm's length principle.

Our model predicts that a multinational firm follows the fundamental paradigm of international taxation, i.e. the arm's length principle, to properly incentivize internal agents involved in the production of a digital good. However, with inequity averse tax authorities, we find that tax authorities "prefer" a more equal distribution of profits compared to the arm's length allocation.

In total, five scenarios covering the three different demand patterns (linear/stationary, trend and seasonal) as well as the forecast quality methods were developed and can be played through. For each scenario, the player has to choose the most appropriate forecasting method for a specific problem based on a self-created task description. To make the game as realistic as possible, a fictional company with a background story was designed. The last part was about the evaluation of the forecasting game. For the evaluation, a student survey to gather the opinions of the students was conducted. The results of the student survey show an overall positive evaluation of the simulation game by the students. However, the test also showed that the game takes a certain amount of time. Since only 15 of the approximately 30 students who tested the game participated in the evaluation, the results are not significant.}, language = {en} } @techreport{Deckert2019, author = {Deckert, Carsten}, title = {Tensions in Team Creativity: Using the Value Square to Model Team Climate for Creativity}, editor = {Niemann, J{\"o}rg and Deckert, Carsten}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {2627-8375}, doi = {10.20385/2627-8375_1}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-16763}, pages = {26}, year = {2019}, abstract = {This paper explores the tensions in team creativity.

We evaluate the usage of realtime-tracked avatars in co-located business-oriented applications in a "guide-user-scenario" in comparison to audio only instructions. The present study examined the effect of an avatar-guide on the user-related factors of Spatial Presence, Social Presence, User Experience and Task Load in order to propose design guidelines for co-located collaborative immersive virtual environments. Therefore, an application was developed and a user study with 40 participants was conducted in order to compare both guiding techniques of a realtime-tracked avatar guide and a non-visualised guide with otherwise constant conditions. Results reveal that the avatar-guide enhanced and stimulated communicative processes while facilitating interaction possibilities and creating a higher sense of mental immersion for users. Furthermore, the avatar-guide appeared to make the storyline more engaging and exciting while helping users adapt to the medium of virtual reality. Even though no assertion could be made concerning the Task Load factor, the avatar-guide achieved a higher subjective value on User Experience.

The transport processes in a system involving triple convective phenomena, irregular geometry, and boundary conditions constitute a complex phenomenon. This work aims to explore the mixed thermo-bioconvection of magnetically susceptible fluid containing copper nanoparticles and oxytactic bacteria in a novel W-shaped porous cavity. The buoyant convention is generated due to the isothermal heating at the wavy bottom wall, whereas the mixed convection is induced due to the shearing motion of the top-cooled sliding wall. Furthermore, the bioconvection is induced due to the manifestation of oxytactic bacteria or organisms. The inclined sidewalls are insulated. The geometry is packed with water based Cu nanoparticle mixed porous structure, which is subjected to a magnetizing field acted horizontally. The complex transport equations are transformed into nondimensional forms, which are then computed using the finite volume-based developed code. The coupled triple-convective flow physics are explored for a wide range of involved controlling parameters, which could provide helpful insight to the system designer for its proper operation. The shape of geometry can be considered one of the important parameters to control the heat and mass transport phenomena. In general, the influence of amplitude (δ) is more compared to the waviness number (m) of the undulations. The magnitude of heat (Nu) and mass (Sh) transfer rate for the W-shaped cavity is high compared to conventional square and trapezoidal-shaped cavities. The output of the analysis could be very helpful for the designer for modeling devices operating on nanotechnology-based bioconvection, microbial fuel cells, and others.}, language = {en} } @article{BiedermannCzeckayHintzenetal.2020, author = {Biedermann, Till M. and Czeckay, Pasquale and Hintzen, Nils and Kameier, Frank and Paschereit, C.

It works by solving the equations of fluid flow (in a special form) over a region of interest, with specified (known) conditions on the boundary of that region. This tool is used here to analyse the straw cutter which is used to comminute the straw which is left standing in the field after stripper header has stripped the grains from the crops. Stripper Header is a new technique different to conventional harvester machines and it is still under development and testing. It works on the principle in which grains are first stripped off from the head of the standing crop which helps in much reduced intake freeing up the separation systems to handle a larger volume of grains. But with this, the new problem of the disposal of the long, uncut straw left after stripping of grains arose. So a straw cutter is used after the stripper header stage in this Combine Harvester, where the rotor is equipped with pressed steel blades and rotates towards the crop, i.e., it cuts and lifts the straw over the top. This technique is environment friendly because previously farmers would have to burn the long, uncut straw standing in the fields while in this case mulched straw can be used for min-till systems. This rotor based straw cutting machine is analysed here which helps us in increasing power efficiency and comminution rate and quality of cut straw particles. Here fluid flow simulation has been preferred over particle simulation: - CFX 10.0 tool is not very effective for particle simulation techniques and computation time is increased considerably. - It's very hard to realize particle simulation in CFX 10.0 because we have to define size and properties of each particle and besides this wall conditions would have to be defined differently for every boundary. - Besides this, it's hard to realize cutting effect with straw particles in CFX 10.0 which otherwise would be comminuted in real life conditions. - The results obtained from fluid simulation are validated using experimental results and found to be nearly the same which clearly contradicts any need of performing particle simulation.}, language = {en} } @article{BenimPfeiffelmann2020, author = {Benim, Ali Cemal and Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn}, title = {Comparison of Combustion Models for Lifted Hydrogen Flames within RANS Framework}, series = {Energies}, volume = {13}, journal = {Energies}, number = {1}, publisher = {MDPI}, issn = {1996-1073}, doi = {10.3390/en13010152}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27727}, pages = {152}, year = {2020}, language = {en} } @article{BenimPfeiffelmann2019, author = {Benim, Ali Cemal and Pfeiffelmann, Bj{\"o}rn}, title = {Validation of Combustion Models for Lifted Hydrogen Flame}, series = {E3S Web of Conferences}, volume = {128}, journal = {E3S Web of Conferences}, publisher = {edp sciences}, issn = {2267-1242}, doi = {10.1051/e3sconf/201912801014}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-27815}, year = {2019}, language = {en} }
