The rate at which sulphur dioxide oxidises to sulphate aerosol is poorly constrained and measurements of downwind abundance are required to quantify the rate at which this process occurs. During July and November 2011, a series of measurements were performed in emissions from Etna Volcano, Sicily, using the University of Applied Sciences (Dusseldorf) research aircraft. Both in situ and remote sensing instrumentation was simultaneously deployed to quantify the down-wind characteristics of gases and particles in the plume emitted by the volcano. In situ particle characteristics were measured using a Grimm 1.109 optical particle counter (microparticles 0.25-32 microns) and Grimm 1320 diffusion electrometer (nanoparticles 25-300 nanometers). Column abundance of sulphur dioxide was measured using a vertically-pointing differential optical absorption spectrometer (DOAS). These measurements were compared to horizontal pathlength-integrated measurements of sulphur dioxide from the Airborne Volcanic Imaging Object Detector (AVOID). Down-wind plume dispersion was discriminated through a series of aircraft transects below and through the volcanic plume. The emissions contained large amounts of nanoparticles relative to microparticles, which reflects gas-phase nucleation of sulphate aerosol. The AVOID system discriminated horizontal layering of volcanic aerosol at altitudes of up to 12,000 ft from a detection range of >50 km. Plume boundaries were discriminated using a combination of the in situ and DOAS measurements in order to compare to the pathlength-integrated measurements from AVOID.}, subject = {Forschungsflugzeug}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{VogelWeberEliassonetal.2012, author = {Vogel, Andreas and Weber, Konradin and Eliasson, Jonas and Palsson, Asgeir and Moser, H.

Because of ash plume forecasts of the VAAC London the airport of Keflavik in Iceland as well as airports in England, Scotland and Scandinavia were closed for some time, which caused the cancellation or change of about 500 flights in Europe. Even in Germany the airports of Bremen, Hamburg and Berlin were closed for several hours on 25 May 2011. During this eruption period in May 2011, a team of the Duesseldorf University of Applied Sciences, the University of Iceland, the University of Reykjavik and the IMO has performed airborne in-situ measurements over Iceland and Germany as well as ground based measurements in the south of Iceland. The ground based measurements were performed continuously during the whole eruption period at two significant positions (Skogar and Hvollsv{\"o}llur) with optical particle counters (OPCs). The measurement method was based on measuring the airborne concentrations of the classic aerosol components (PM10, PM2.5 and PM1) and TSP (total suspended particles) every 6 seconds. Additional measurement flights on Iceland were started already one day after the beginning of the eruption (twelve in-situ measurement flights) and marked the spatial and temporal spread of volcanic ash in the atmosphere. For the flights light slow flying piston engine powered airplanes where used. The flights over Iceland focused on the western part of Iceland in the region of Reykjavik and Keflavik and over the international airport in Keflavik and were mostly coordinated by ISAVIA. The measurement flights helped to keep Keflavik International Airport open for many additional hours despite of adverse predictions by the London VAAC model, because it was possible to observe the particle concentration on-line during the flights. In Germany a measurement flight was performed on 25 May 2012 over the northern part of Germany where the volcanic ash cloud was forecasted from the dispersion model of the London VAAC. This flight was performed on the behalf of the German Weather Service (DWD). The measurement flights revealed most time relative low airborne ash concentrations over western Iceland, although the groundbased measured ash concentrations in the south of Iceland nearer to the Grimsv{\"o}tn were very high. In Germany the measured concentrations during the flight were low enough to be consistent with the re-opening of the airports Bremen, Hamburg and Berlin, which were closed by the authorities for several hours on 25 May 2011 because of high concentration predictions by the VAAC-model. The measurement flights clearly proved that OPCs, based on slow flying piston-motor driven aircrafts, are very suitable for the determination of airborne ash particles during volcanic eruptions. This is an important issue for air traffic safety.}, language = {en} } @article{TischTophoven2012, author = {Tisch, Anita and Tophoven, Silke}, title = {Employment Biographies of the German Baby Boomer Generation}, series = {Schmollers Jahrbuch}, volume = {132}, journal = {Schmollers Jahrbuch}, number = {2}, doi = {10.3790/schm.132.2.205}, pages = {205 -- 232}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{StuhlsatzLippelZielke2012, author = {Stuhlsatz, Andr{\´e} and Lippel, Jens and Zielke, Thomas}, title = {Feature extraction with deep neural networks by a generalized discriminant analysis}, series = {IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems}, volume = {23}, journal = {IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems}, number = {4}, publisher = {IEEE}, doi = {10.1109/tnnls.2012.2183645}, pages = {596 -- 608}, year = {2012}, abstract = {We present an approach to feature extraction that is a generalization of the classical linear discriminant analysis (LDA) on the basis of deep neural networks (DNNs). As for LDA, discriminative features generated from independent Gaussian class conditionals are assumed. This modeling has the advantages that the intrinsic dimensionality of the feature space is bounded by the number of classes and that the optimal discriminant function is linear. Unfortunately, linear transformations are insufficient to extract optimal discriminative features from arbitrarily distributed raw measurements. The generalized discriminant analysis (GerDA) proposed in this paper uses nonlinear transformations that are learnt by DNNs in a semisupervised fashion. We show that the feature extraction based on our approach displays excellent performance on real-world recognition and detection tasks, such as handwritten digit recognition and face detection. In a series of experiments, we evaluate GerDA features with respect to dimensionality reduction, visualization, classification, and detection. Moreover, we show that GerDA DNNs can preprocess truly high-dimensional input data to low-dimensional representations that facilitate accurate predictions even if simple linear predictors or measures of similarity are used.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SteffensSchulteFortkampBeckerSchweitzer2012, author = {Steffens, Jochen and Schulte-Fortkamp, Brigitte and Becker-Schweitzer, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Mensch-Maschine-Interaktion als Einflussfaktor bei der Ger{\"a}uschbewertung im akustischen Produkt-Design}, series = {Fortschritte der Akustik}, booktitle = {Fortschritte der Akustik}, editor = {Hanselka, Holger}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik e.V.}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-939296-04-1}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @article{SteffensSchulteFortkampBeckerSchweitzer2012, author = {Steffens, Jochen and Schulte-Fortkamp, Brigitte and Becker-Schweitzer, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Human-machine interaction as influencing factor of indoor soundscape evaluation}, series = {The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America}, volume = {131}, journal = {The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America}, number = {4}, publisher = {AIP}, doi = {10.1121/1.4708899}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{SteffensSchulteFortkampBeckerSchweitzer2012, author = {Steffens, Jochen and Schulte-Fortkamp, Brigitte and Becker-Schweitzer, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Ger{\"a}uschbewertung von Haushaltsger{\"a}ten im Labor und in der Realit{\"a}t [Sound evaluations of household appliances in laboratory and in real environments]}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r L{\"a}rmbek{\"a}mpfung}, volume = {7}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r L{\"a}rmbek{\"a}mpfung}, number = {2}, publisher = {Springer}, pages = {64 -- 68}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @article{Steffens2012, author = {Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Urteilsbildung bei der subjektiven Bewertung des Innenger{\"a}usches von Elektrofahrzeugen}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r L{\"a}rmbek{\"a}mpfung}, volume = {7}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r L{\"a}rmbek{\"a}mpfung}, number = {3}, publisher = {Springer}, pages = {133 -- 135}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{SkodaSteffensBeckerSchweitzer2012, author = {Skoda, Sabrina and Steffens, Jochen and Becker-Schweitzer, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Einfluss von Fahrzeuginnenger{\"a}uschen auf die subjektive Bewertung von Beschleunigung}, series = {Fortschritte der Akustik}, booktitle = {Fortschritte der Akustik}, editor = {Hanselka, Holger}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik e.V.}, address = {Berlin}, organization = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik}, isbn = {978-3-939296-04-1}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{SkodaSteffensBeckerSchweitzer2012, author = {Skoda, Sabrina and Steffens, Jochen and Becker-Schweitzer, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Multisensory interaction - A comparative study on driving sound evaluation in moving base and fixed base driving simulators}, series = {Proceedings of the Driving Simulation Conference 2012, CD-ROM}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Driving Simulation Conference 2012, CD-ROM}, address = {Paris}, year = {2012}, language = {en} }
