Still commercial studios cannot have full interaction between actors and virtual scene because actors data are not completely digital available as well as the feedback for actors is still not sufficient. Markerless full body tracking might revolutionize virtual studio technology as it allows better interaction between real and virtual world. This article reports about using a markerless actor tracking in a virtual studio with a tracking volume of nearly 40 cubic meter enabling up to three actors within the green box. The tracking is used for resolving the occlusion between virtual objects and actors so that the Tenderer can output automatically a mask for virtual objects in the foreground in case the actor is behind. It is also used for triggering functions scripted within the Tenderer engine, which are attached to virtual objects, starting any kind of action (e.g., animation). Last but not least the system is used for controlling avatars within the virtual set. All tracking and rendering is done within a studio frame rate of 50 Hz with about 3 frames delay. The markerless actor tracking within virtual studios is evaluated by experts using an interview approach. The statistical evaluation is based on a questionnaire.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HuldtgrenVormannGeiger2015, author = {Huldtgren, Alina and Vormann, Anja and Geiger, Christian}, title = {Mapping Memories for People with Dementia}, series = {Information and Communication Technologies for Ageing Well and e-Health}, booktitle = {Information and Communication Technologies for Ageing Well and e-Health}, editor = {Helfert, Markus and Holzinger, Andreas and Ziefle, Martina and Fred, Ana and O'Donoghue, John and R{\"o}cker, Carsten}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-27694-6}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-27695-3_10}, pages = {165 -- 184}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Deckert2002, author = {Deckert, Carsten}, title = {Managing Knowledge and Best Practice in the Tool and Die Industry}, series = {17th Annual Conference of the South African Institute for Industrial Engineering}, booktitle = {17th Annual Conference of the South African Institute for Industrial Engineering}, address = {Stellenbosch}, year = {2002}, language = {en} } @article{HeinemannLeiberGress2013, author = {Heinemann, Stephanie and Leiber, Simone and Gress, Stefan}, title = {Managed competition in the Netherlands-a qualitative study}, series = {Health policy}, volume = {109}, journal = {Health policy}, number = {2}, publisher = {Elsevier}, doi = {10.1016/j.healthpol.2012.08.025}, pages = {113 -- 121}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StuhlsatzMeierWendemuth2008, author = {Stuhlsatz, Andr{\´e} and Meier, Hans-G{\"u}nter and Wendemuth, Andreas}, title = {Making the Lipschitz Classifier Practical via Semi-infinite Programming}, series = {2008 Seventh International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications, 11-13 December 2008, San Diego}, booktitle = {2008 Seventh International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications, 11-13 December 2008, San Diego}, publisher = {IEEE}, isbn = {978-0-7695-3495-4}, doi = {10.1109/ICMLA.2008.26}, pages = {40 -- 47}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{UnterfraunerVoigt2017, author = {Unterfrauner, Elisabeth and Voigt, Christian}, title = {Makers' ambitions to do socially valuable things}, series = {The Design Journal}, volume = {20}, journal = {The Design Journal}, number = {sup1}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, issn = {1756-3062}, doi = {10.1080/14606925.2017.1352835}, pages = {3317 -- 3325}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{BiswasMandalMannaetal.2022, author = {Biswas, Nirmalendu and Mandal, Dipak Kumar and Manna, Nirmal K. and Benim, Ali Cemal}, title = {Magneto-hydrothermal triple-convection in a W-shaped porous cavity containing oxytactic bacteria}, series = {scientific reports}, volume = {12}, journal = {scientific reports}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, issn = {2045-2322}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-022-18401-7}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-40041}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Bioconvective heat and mass transport phenomena have recently been the subject of interest in diverse fields of applications pertaining to the motion of fluids and their thermophysical properties. 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.

While for a solution of this task the brain has access to a massive parallelism and a vast, hierarchically organized, and auto-associative memory, common computer architectures are just able to a sequential processing of information stored in a non auto-associative memory. Even modern, parallelly operating, multi-processor systems are far away from the performance of our brain. However, nowadays, it is possible to solve complex and memory extensive pattern recognition problems, like the recognition of handwritten digits or the transcription of speech, satisfactorily with a common computer by the use of modern statistical and algorithmic learning approaches. One of the most successful pattern recognition methods is the so-called Support Vector Machine (SVM). The SVM is based on the learning paradigm of structural risk minimization, which outperforms empirical approaches if only few data is available for solving the considered classification problem. Although the SVM has proven very good recognition performances in many cases, the SVM also comes up with limitations, for example if specific a priori knowledge shall be used. In particular, the increasing complexity of applications requires a high adaptivity of the classification method to the specific problem. Also concerning this point, the SVM is limited due to a restricted variety of implementable classification functions. The objective of the present thesis is the development of new learning algorithms for the classification of patterns, that on the one hand overcome the limitations of the SVM, but on the other hand are based on the same theoretical concepts facilitating the good performance of the SVM. Two new algorithms will be presented that are justified by a theoretical generalization of the SVM, and which will be utilized for the first time for a practical implementation. In contrast to the SVM, the new methods make accessible a much larger function class for constructing a classifier. This is an important prerequisite for flexible adaptation of the classifier to difficult classification tasks with particular requirements as well as for the integration of a priori knowledge about the problem at hand. In this work, the way to implementable algorithms leads across different mathematical reformulations of the original problem. Starting with the theoretical generalization of the SVM, it results a restricted optimization problem that is difficult to solve in general. In a first step, this problem is expressed in terms of a restricted minimax-problem by a modification of the suitable classification functions to a still very large function class consisting of (affine-)linear combinations of at least one-time continuously differentiable functions. In the next step, the minimax-problem is converted into a so-called Semi-Infinite Problem (SIP). It turns out, that this particular mathematical problem is appropriate in order to obtain a solution of the original problem for the considered function class using well-known optimization methods. To further exploit the problem structure, an equivalent dual problem is derived from the SIP. Therefore, we prove a duality theorem about the equality of the optimal values of the dual and the original problem. For solving the dual problem, a multilevel iterative approach is developed from which the proposed algorithms follow by pursuing different solution strategies. Moreover, all sub-optimization methods of any stage necessary for an implementation in software are developed. Namely, these are an adapted interior-point-method, a simulated annealing based search heuristics and a particular gradient decent approach. Furthermore, options are depicted for an improvement of efficiency for future implementations. Besides the emphasis on the theoretical development of new learning methods and their practical implementations, all algorithms were implemented in the MATLAB(R) programming environment for the experimental part of the present thesis. Hence, they are also available for further research purposes in future. For the first time, classification results are explored and evaluated in comparison to the SVM on different data sets. As test data, an artificial 2d-dataset as well as two real-world datasets were used. In the concluding experiment, a scenario is prototypically considered to which the SVM is only inadequately applicable and which shall precisely prove the capability of the new methods in that case. It follows, regarding the considered datasets, the proposed learning methods reach comparably good classification accuracy like the SVM in standard applications. Moreover, the particular benefit of the new methods is reflected theoretically and experimentally in the ability to solve classification problems using decision functions that are not accessible to SVMs. Thereby, the underlying ideas, which make the SVM excel compared to other approaches with respect to generalization performances in case of few available learning information, are adequately transported into the proposed new environment. This opens the way for a design and a use of new classifiers that have not been implementable in a robust and generalizing basic concept so far.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StoehrZielke2023, author = {St{\"o}hr, Marcel and Zielke, Thomas}, title = {Machine Learning for Soft Sensors and an Application in Cement Production}, series = {Smart, Sustainable Manufacturing in an Ever-Changing World Proceedings of International Conference on Competitive Manufacturing (COMA '22)}, volume = {Lecture Notes in Production Engineering}, booktitle = {Smart, Sustainable Manufacturing in an Ever-Changing World Proceedings of International Conference on Competitive Manufacturing (COMA '22)}, editor = {Leipzig, Konrad von and Sacks, Natasha and Mc Clelland, Michelle}, publisher = {Springer Nature Switzerland}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-031-15604-5}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-031-15602-1_46}, pages = {627 -- 638}, year = {2023}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Krieter2020, author = {Krieter, Philipp}, title = {Looking Inside - Mobile Screen Recordings as a Privacy Friendly Long-Term Data Source to Analyze User Behavior}, publisher = {Bremen}, address = {Universit{\"a}t Bremen}, doi = {10.26092/elib/103}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:46-elib43189}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Mobile devices are ubiquitous in many societies and shape the way we interact with technology and each other. Research on how we use and perceive technology is essential to understand its impact. This work advances how we can follow user behavior on mobile devices. We combine the strength of two common data sources for tracking on mobile devices, log files, and screen recordings. Log files are suitable for long-term and privacy-friendly analyzation but provide rather general data (e.g. system log files) unless one has access to the source code of the applications or operating systems. Screen recordings are usually used for short-termed analysis (e.g. usability tests) because the analysis is time-consuming, but they provide all activities on the screen in high detail regardless of which application or operating system. This thesis combines both data sources and presents an approach to automatically generate log files from mobile screen recordings. The approach utilizes methods of computer vision and machine learning to automatically process screen recordings and extend their use. Screen recordings reveal virtually everything a user does with a device, making privacy important, especially in user studies. We present a privacy concept and implementation and show how the risk of exposing private data can be reduced, by processing all recordings locally on the mobile devices and anonymizing the resulting log files. In order to apply the developed method in practice, we carry out a study in the context of education and show how log files of screen recordings can complement and extend existing research in learning analytics. This thesis opens up novel perspectives on how we can look at human-computer interaction with mobile devices. We show how to generate long-term log data with high detail and accuracy from mobile screen recordings, in a privacy-friendly way, locally on mobile devices.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SteffensGuastavino2014, author = {Steffens, Jochen and Guastavino, Catherine}, title = {Looking back by looking into the future - The role of anticipation and trend effects in retrospective judgments of musical excitement}, series = {Proceedings of the Congress of the International Association of Empirical Aesthetics, New York City (NY), USA}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Congress of the International Association of Empirical Aesthetics, New York City (NY), USA}, address = {New York}, organization = {IAEA}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{VocksWaechterWuchereretal.2008, author = {Vocks, Silja and W{\"a}chter, Alexandra and Wucherer, Maike and Kosfelder, Joachim}, title = {Look at yourself: can body image therapy affect the cognitive and emotional response to seeing oneself in the mirror in eating disorders?}, series = {European eating disorders review : the journal of the Eating Disorders Association}, volume = {16}, journal = {European eating disorders review : the journal of the Eating Disorders Association}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley}, doi = {10.1002/erv.825}, pages = {147 -- 154}, year = {2008}, abstract = {The study examined whether the extent of negative body-related thoughts and emotions evoked by looking in a mirror can be changed by cognitive-behavioural body image therapy (BIT) and whether any remaining cognitive and affective responses dropped faster after the treatment.

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. Our results support and extend previous findings which suggest that the acoustical design of restaurants involves a trade-off between comfort and liveliness, depending on the desired character of the place.}, language = {en} } @misc{Seidel2021, author = {Seidel, Carl Anton}, title = {Jumping Humanoid Simulink Simulation With Three Hill-Type Muscle Models}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, organization = {Hochschule D{\"u}sseldorf}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-33765}, year = {2021}, abstract = {This paper investigates the implementation of a human body model for the simulation of a jumping motion in Simulink.

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.

Besides isoprene, monoterpenes are the non-methane volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with the highest global emission rates. Due to their high reactivity towards OH, monoterpenes can dominate the radical chemistry of the atmosphere in forested areas. In the present study the photochemical degradation mechanism of β-pinene was investigated in the J{\"u}lich atmosphere simulation chamber SAPHIR (Simulation of Atmospheric PHotochemistry In a large Reaction Chamber). One focus of this study is on the OH budget in the degradation process. Therefore, the SAPHIR chamber was equipped with instrumentation to measure radicals (OH, HO2, RO2), the total OH reactivity, important OH precursors (O3, HONO, HCHO), the parent VOC β-pinene, its main oxidation products, acetone and nopinone and photolysis frequencies. All experiments were carried out under low-NO conditions ( ≤  300 ppt) and at atmospheric β-pinene concentrations ( ≤  5 ppb) with and without addition of ozone. For the investigation of the OH budget, the OH production and destruction rates were calculated from measured quantities. Within the limits of accuracy of the instruments, the OH budget was balanced in all β-pinene oxidation experiments. However, even though the OH budget was closed, simulation results from the Master Chemical Mechanism (MCM) 3.2 showed that the OH production and destruction rates were underestimated by the model. The measured OH and HO2 concentrations were underestimated by up to a factor of 2, whereas the total OH reactivity was slightly overestimated because the model predicted a nopinone mixing ratio which was 3 times higher than measured. A new, theory-derived, first-generation product distribution by Vereecken and Peeters (2012) was able to reproduce the measured nopinone time series and the total OH reactivity. Nevertheless, the measured OH and HO2 concentrations remained underestimated by the numerical simulations. These observations together with the fact that the measured OH budget was closed suggest the existence of unaccounted sources of HO2. Although the mechanism of additional HO2 formation could not be resolved, our model studies suggest that an activated alkoxy radical intermediate proposed in the model of Vereecken and Peeters (2012) generates HO2 in a new pathway, whose importance has been underestimated so far. The proposed reaction path involves unimolecular rearrangement and decomposition reactions and photolysis of dicarbonyl products, yielding additional HO2 and CO. Further experiments and quantum chemical calculations have to be made to completely unravel the pathway of HO2 formation.}, language = {en} } @article{RolletterKaminskiAciretal.2019, author = {Rolletter, Michael and Kaminski, Martin and Acir, Ismail-Hakki and Bohn, Birger and Dorn, Hans-Peter and Li, Xin and Lutz, Anna and Nehr, Sascha and Rohrer, Franz and Tillmann, Ralf and Wegener, Robert and Hofzumahaus, Andreas and Kiendler-Scharr, Astrid and Wahner, Andreas and Fuchs, Hendrik}, title = {Investigation of the α-pinene photooxidation by OH in the atmospheric simulation chamber SAPHIR}, series = {Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics}, volume = {19}, journal = {Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics}, number = {18}, publisher = {Copernicus}, issn = {1680-7324}, doi = {10.5194/acp-19-11635-2019}, pages = {11635 -- 11649}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Abstract. The photooxidation of the most abundant monoterpene, α-pinene, by the hydroxyl radical (OH) was investigated at atmospheric concentrations in the atmospheric simulation chamber SAPHIR. Concentrations of nitric oxide (NO) were below 120 pptv. Yields of organic oxidation products are determined from measured time series giving values of 0.11±0.05, 0.19±0.06, and 0.05±0.03 for formaldehyde, acetone, and pinonaldehyde, respectively. The pinonaldehyde yield is at the low side of yields measured in previous laboratory studies, ranging from 0.06 to 0.87. These studies were mostly performed at reactant concentrations much higher than observed in the atmosphere. Time series of measured radical and trace-gas concentrations are compared to results from model calculations applying the Master Chemical Mechanism (MCM) 3.3.1. The model predicts pinonaldehyde mixing ratios that are at least a factor of 4 higher than measured values. At the same time, modeled hydroxyl and hydroperoxy (HO2) radical concentrations are approximately 25 \% lower than measured values. Vereecken et al. (2007) suggested a shift of the initial organic peroxy radical (RO2) distribution towards RO2 species that do not yield pinonaldehyde but produce other organic products. Implementing these modifications reduces the model-measurement gap of pinonaldehyde by 20 \% and also improves the agreement in modeled and measured radical concentrations by 10 \%. However, the chemical oxidation mechanism needs further adjustment to explain observed radical and pinonaldehyde concentrations. This could be achieved by adjusting the initial RO2 distribution, but could also be done by implementing alternative reaction channels of RO2 species that currently lead to the formation of pinonaldehyde in the model.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BenimCicek2022, author = {Benim, Ali Cemal and {\c{C}}i{\c{c}}ek, Ayd{\i}n}, title = {Investigation of the Thermohydraulics of an EGS Project in Turkey: Comparative Assessment of Water and CO2 as Heat Transfer Fluid}, series = {Proceedings of CONV-22: Int.

The oxidation of limonene by the hydroxyl (OH) radical and ozone (O3) was investigated in the atmospheric simulation chamber SAPHIR (Simulation of Atmospheric PHotochemistry In a large Reaction Chamber) in experiments performed at different nitric oxide (NO) mixing ratios from nearly 0 up to 10 ppbv. For the experiments dominated by OH oxidation, the formaldehyde (HCHO) yield was experimentally determined and found to be (12 ± 3), (13 ± 3), and (32 ± 5) \% for experiments with low (∼ 0.1 ppbv), medium (∼ 0.3 ppbv), and high NO (5 to 10 ppbv), respectively. The yield in an ozonolysis-only experiment was (10 ± 1) \%, which agrees with previous laboratory studies. The experimental yield of the first-generation organic nitrates from limonene-OH oxidation is calculated as (34 ± 5) \%, about 11 \% higher than the value in the Master Chemical Mechanism (MCM), which is derived from structure-activity relationships (SARs). Time series of measured radicals, trace-gas concentrations, and OH reactivity are compared to results from zero-dimensional chemical box model calculations applying MCM v3.3.1. Modeled OH reactivity is 5 to 10 s-1 (25 \% to 33 \% of the OH reactivity at the start of the experiment) higher than measured values at the end of the experiments under all chemical conditions investigated, suggesting either that there are unaccounted loss processes of limonene oxidation products or that products are less reactive toward OH. In addition, model calculations underestimate measured hydroperoxyl radical (HO2) concentrations by 20 \% to 90 \% and overestimate organic peroxyl radical (RO2) concentrations by 50 \% to 300 \%. The largest deviations are found in low-NO experiments and in the ozonolysis experiment. An OH radical budget analysis, which uses only measured quantities, shows that the budget is closed in most of the experiments. A similar budget analysis for RO2 radicals suggests that an additional RO2 loss rate constant of about (1-6) × 10-2 s-1 for first-generation RO2 is required to match the measured RO2 concentrations in all experiments. Sensitivity model runs indicate that additional reactions converting RO2 to HO2 at a rate constant of about (1.7-3.0) × 10-2 s-1 would improve the model-measurement agreement of NOx, HO2, and RO2 concentrations and OH reactivity. Reaction pathways that could lead to the production of additional OH and HO2 are discussed, which include isomerization reactions of RO2 from the oxidation of limonene, different branching ratios for the reaction of RO2 with HO2, and a faster rate constant for RO2 recombination reactions. As the exact chemical mechanisms of the additional HO2 and OH sources could not be identified, further work needs to focus on quantifying organic product species and organic peroxy radicals from limonene oxidation.}, language = {en} } @article{MabroukBenimNajietal.2023, author = {Mabrouk, Riheb and Benim, Ali Cemal and Naji, Hassane and Dhahri, Hacen}, title = {Investigation of Pulsed Flow Effects on the Phase Change Within an Open-Cell Metal Foam Using Thermal Lattice Boltzmann Method}, series = {Transport in Porous Media}, volume = {147}, journal = {Transport in Porous Media}, number = {2}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, issn = {0169-3913}, doi = {10.1007/s11242-023-01903-x}, pages = {225 -- 257}, year = {2023}, language = {en} } @article{AslanTaymazBenim2015, author = {Aslan, Erman and Taymaz, Imdat and Benim, Ali Cemal}, title = {Investigation of LBM curved boundary treatments for unsteady flows}, series = {European Journal of Mechanics - B/Fluids}, volume = {51}, journal = {European Journal of Mechanics - B/Fluids}, publisher = {Elsevier}, doi = {10.1016/j.euromechflu.2015.01.004}, pages = {68 -- 74}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{BhattacharyyaChattopadhyayGuinetal.2019, author = {Bhattacharyya, Suvanjan and Chattopadhyay, Himadri and Guin, Anindya and Benim, Ali Cemal}, title = {Investigation of Inclined Turbulators for Heat Transfer Enhancement in a Solar Air Heater}, series = {Heat Transfer Engineering}, volume = {40}, journal = {Heat Transfer Engineering}, number = {17/18}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, doi = {10.1080/01457632.2018.1474593}, pages = {1451 -- 1460}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{BausNehrMaeda2023, author = {Baus, Lukas and Nehr, Sascha and Maeda, Nobutaka}, title = {Investigation of CO2-Sorption Characteristics of Readily Available Solid Materials for Indoor Direct Air Capturing}, series = {Indoor Air}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Indoor Air}, editor = {Ming, Ting Zhen}, publisher = {Wiley}, issn = {1600-0668}, doi = {10.1155/2023/8821044}, pages = {1 -- 8}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Direct air capturing (DAC) is an energy demanding process for CO2-removal from air.

The focus is on the prediction of the so-called bottleneck phenomenon. The latter has been previously observed as a specific feature of the present flame class and has not yet been investigated computationally. In the configuration under consideration, the nozzle diameter is 0.5 mm and six cases with mean nozzle injection velocities (U) between 306 m/s and 561 m/s are considered. The flow in the nozzle lance is analyzed separately to obtain detailed inlet boundary conditions for the flame calculations. It is confirmed by calculation that the phenomenon is mainly determined by the transition to turbulence in the initial parts of the free jet. The transitional turbulence proves to be the biggest challenge in predicting this class of flames, as the generally available turbulence and turbulent combustion models reach the limits of their validity in transitional flows. In a Reynolds-Averaged Numerical Simulation framework, the Shear Stress Transport model is found to perform better than alternative two-equation models and is used as the turbulence model. By neglecting the interactions between the turbulence and chemistry (no-model approach), it is possible to predict the morphology of the bottleneck flame and its dependence on U qualitatively. However, the position of the bottleneck is overpredicted for U \< 561 m/s. The experimental flames in the considered U range are all attached to the nozzle. This is also predicted by the no-model approach. The Eddy Dissipation Concept (EDC) used as the turbulence combustion model predicts, however, lifted flames (with increasing lift-off height as U decreases). With the EDC, no bottleneck morphology is observed for U = 561 m/s. For lower U, the EDC results for the bottleneck position are generally closer to the measurements. It is demonstrated that accuracy in predicting the bottleneck position can be improved by ad hoc modifications of the turbulent viscosity.}, subject = {Turbulenzmodell}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LauxGoebelNeefetal.2015, author = {Laux, Christoph and Goebel, Johannes and Neef, Matthias and Gotter, Andreas}, title = {Investigation in the Technical and Economic Feasibility of a Low-Pressure Steam Cycle for the Waste Heat Utilization of a Cogeneration Plant}, series = {Proceedings of the ASME Turbo Expo: Turbine Technical Conference and Exposition - 2015 : presented at the ASME 2015 Turbo Expo: Turbine Technical Conference and Exposition, June 15 - 19, 2015, Montreal, Quebec, Canada / sponsored by the International Gas Turbine Institute}, volume = {3: Coal, biomass and alternative fuels - cycle innovations - electric power - industrial and cogeneration}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the ASME Turbo Expo: Turbine Technical Conference and Exposition - 2015 : presented at the ASME 2015 Turbo Expo: Turbine Technical Conference and Exposition, June 15 - 19, 2015, Montreal, Quebec, Canada / sponsored by the International Gas Turbine Institute}, publisher = {International Gas Turbine Institute (ASME)}, address = {New York}, isbn = {978-0-7918-5667-3}, year = {2015}, abstract = {This paper deals with the investigation in the technical and economic feasibility of a low-pressure steam cycle for the waste heat utilization of a combined heat and power (CHP) plant. The proposed steam cycle uses a pressure level below atmospheric pressure which allows to use the heat from the motor's coolant for evaporation. The cycle is designed to increase the maximum electrical efficiency of a gas fired reciprocating engine and to increase operational flexibility for varying heat demand. Since organic Rankine cycle (ORC) plants are already being successfully used for waste heat recovery, advantages of the low-pressure steam Rankine cycle (SRC) over an ORC are highlighted. Many ORC fluids are toxic or flammable and thus have an increased risk potential compared to water. An additional advantage of water compared to ORC fluids is the possibility of superheating above 500 °C. The technical feasibility of the proposed cycle is studied by the detailed design of the individual system components such as turbine, heat exchangers and auxiliary parts. This includes the detailed thermodynamic design of the full cycle for the calculation of plant efficiencies. As a basis for future experimental investigations, a cogeneration plant with an electrical output of 50 kWel was selected as a heat source for the steam cycle. The design geometries of the turbine and the heat exchanger are presented along with efficiency and cost predictions. A subsonic radial turbine with a rotational speed of 155,000 rpm was selected. The maximum turbine output is about 7.5 kW. The use of a flash evaporator is investigated to reduce the size and the costs for the evaporator. The suggested steam cycle helps to increase the electrical efficiency of the CHP plant by 4.5\% points from an original 36.5\% to 41.0\%. The steam cycle itself has an electrical efficiency of approximately 9\%. Additionally, the condensation temperature in this steam cycle is high enough to be extracted as useful heat output to generate domestic water with a temperature of 50°C.}, language = {en} } @article{EliassonWeberVogeletal.2016, author = {El{\´i}asson, Jonas and Weber, Konradin and Vogel, Andreas and P{\´a}lsson, Thorgeir and Yoshitani, Junichi and Miki, Daisuke}, title = {Investigation and Separation of Turbulent Fluctuations in Airborne Measurements of Volcanic Ash with Optical Particle Counters}, series = {Journal of Disaster Research}, volume = {11}, journal = {Journal of Disaster Research}, number = {1}, publisher = {Fuji Technology Press Ltd.}, issn = {1883-8030}, doi = {10.20965/jdr.2016.p0072}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-50023}, pages = {72 -- 84}, year = {2016}, abstract = {The science of measuring airborne volcanic ash concentrations supports research in such fields as atmospheric environmental science and the modeling of atmospheric pollution from volcanoes, and is thus very valuable to the aviation industry. These measurements show large scatter directly traceable to turbulent fluctuations responsible for diffusing volcanic dust. Before semistationary components in observations can be compared to each other or to simulation results, they must be separated from fluctuations. In the design of the separation process, however, neither seasonal or diurnal periodicity nor random disturbance with known properties exists to serve as a guideline. It has been suggested that fluctuations could be eliminated through repeated convolutions of a simple 3-point filter enough times. The number of convolutions is chosen from the change in the rate of increase of a special variability parameter. When semistationary concentrations are separated from fluctuations, their statistics are compared to turbulence parameters and the autocorrelation of the series. The method is demonstrated using three measurement series from Sakurajima, Japan measured in 2013. It is concluded that this new method is simple and trustworthy where knowledge and experience of the environmental parameters can be utilized to support the results. They indicate a variability of 40\% in the relative fluctuations of the PM10 and around 20\% of the PM2.5.

However, deviations between software design and implementation are often uncontrolled and induce architectural erosion. The literature describes several symptoms and observes this phenomenon in open source software. Prominent reasons for the occurrence of architectural erosion include a rushed evolution, recurring changes, a lack of developers' awareness, time pressures, and the accumulation of design decisions. Architectural erosion is also prevalent in academic projects, but it still needs to be researched in-depth in a real-life setting. In this work, a single case study investigates the symptoms and reasons for architectural erosion in open source software originating from academia by employing a mixed-methods approach. Architectural metrics from a static code analysis using ARCADE Core are contrasted with developers' perspectives sourced from semistructured interviews. The investigated project is JackTrip, a cross-platform application for realtime networked music performances and Internet reverberation research. The first research question aims at assessing the trend of structural symptoms for architectural erosion in JackTrip. The results show a significant increase in link overload smells in the course of the evolution, which reached 11 as of version 1.6.2. This supports the developers' perception of a rushed evolution corresponding to the second research question, which asks to what extent prominent causes for architectural erosion apply. Additionally, the interview data evince time constraints related to tight research funding and the commercialization of the project. Research question 3 investigates how the academic environment and the problem domain relate to the symptoms and reasons for architecture erosion. It has been found that these influences shape the development approach and impact contributor selection. In relation to a certain inexperience and lack of commitment of open source developers as a reason for architectural erosion, the results suggest further studies and opt for ending the discussion regarding skills. Currently, the role of an architect or dedicated architectural work does not seem to be present in the JackTrip project.

The politics of the real is based on an interruption of identification and an abrupt end of continuity, and intensity, manifestation, and performance are the modalities of the politics of the real. First, intensity is the principle of punctualization. It denotes an anti-dialectic and anti-systematic enterprise that aims to leave behind the paradigm of continuity. It acts as the counter-principle to overcome the Hegelian dialectic and historicism. It concerns the dimension before the formation of identity and thus functions as a categorical rejection of ontological identity. Consequently, it evolves into a figure of future politics, because it denies identity and instead affirms new inventions. Second, manifestation is a matter of politics, because politics shows itself as a matter of visibility and demonstration. Ultimately, politics is the fight over manifestation. Furthermore, manifestation is the modality of existence of the collective, since a new arising collective always manifests itself in the space of images. Finally, performance is an action concept and thus opposed to the static world-model. Hence, the world appears as the place for restructuring and reshaping. Performance renders reference and the classical notion of mimesis obsolete. It undermines the distinction between original and copy and instead affirms the permanent generating of new relations and nexuses. Hence, it is the generation of freedom.

It is an anti-metaphysical concept of possibility that differs strictly from metaphysical possibility.

These methodologies are seen as crucial to adapt technology design to older people's needs and increase their acceptance of digital technology. Nevertheless, it is often difficult to reach a diverse group of older people, for instance, people with limited technology skills, limited mobility, or cognitive issues. In addition, gerontologists criticized lately how older people's participation unfolds in technology design projects, e.g. that people are pushed into the role of users. Little is known about the motivations and needs of older adults regarding their participation in HCI research. To close this gap, we conducted an online survey (N=46) and semi-structured interviews (N=8) focusing on motivations, willingness and experiences regarding participation. Results show that people are generally willing to participate due to interest in the topic, learning new things and social bonding. However, despite the conceptions within HCI that long-term engagement is crucial within participatory design, older people in the study preferred less commitment and more open formats.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchmittHerderBhalla1997, author = {Schmitt, Lothar M. and Herder, Jens and Bhalla, Subhash}, title = {Information Retrieval and Database Architecture for Conventional Japanese Character Dictionaries}, series = {Proceedings, Second International Conference on Cognitive Technology}, booktitle = {Proceedings, Second International Conference on Cognitive Technology}, editor = {Gorayska, Barbara and Nehaniv, Chrystopher L. and Marsh, Jonathon P.}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Los Alamitos}, isbn = {0-8186-8084-9}, pages = {200 -- 217}, year = {1997}, abstract = {The cycle of abstraction-reconstruction which occurs as a fundamental principle in the development of culture and in cognitive processes is described and analyzed.

The different phases of the design of a multi-dimensional language database based upon different computer software technologies are properly placed in this cycle. The methods used include the use of UNIX software tools, classical database methods as-well-as the use of search engines based upon full text search in this process.

However, the efficient release of stored hydrogen through thermocatalytic ammonia decomposition is achievable only at temperatures around 600 °C, particularly with non-noble metal-based catalysts, which prove to be both ecologically and economically more feasible. In this study, electrically conductive activated carbon was selected as the catalyst support, chosen specifically for its suitability in achieving more energy-efficient direct reactor heating through the ohmic resistance of the catalysts. Cobalt salts were wet impregnated on activated carbon investigating the influence of different precursors (cobalt nitrate and cobalt acetate) and pyrolysis temperatures (400 °C and 600 °C) under N2 flow on the cobalt particle size and the incorporation of cobalt into the carbon matrix. TEM imaging and CO-chemisorption revealed well dispersed cobalt particles with sizes below 10 nm for the catalysts synthesized from the cobalt nitrate precursor. On the other hand, cobalt acetate led to about nine times larger Co agglomerates, which were partially detached from the carbon matrix. Moreover, this substantial difference in the Co particle size results in a significantly higher ammonia conversion for cobalt nitrate-based catalysts, achieving 94 \% of ammonia conversion at 600 °C. Furthermore, the long-term stability test of the cobalt nitrate-based catalyst resulted in a slight deactivation of only 2 \% ammonia conversion at 500 °C.}, subject = {Katalyse}, language = {en} } @article{PetitHeninKasparianetal.2011, author = {Petit, Y. and Henin, S. and Kasparian, J. and Wolf, J.

However, recent studies suggest that virtual environments can alter mental effort compared to real-world settings, for example, through increased perceptual complexity which in turn may affect auditory perception.This could bias experimental outcomes and compromise the ecological validity of studies conducted in VR. 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{VansteenkisteDeBaerdemaekerChouetal.2008, author = {Vansteenkiste, A. and De Baerdemaeker, J. and Chou, Kang Wei and Stoll, H. and Curcic, Michael and Tyliszczak, T. and Woltersdorf, G. and Back, Christian H. and Sch{\"u}tz, G. and Van Waeyenberge, B.}, title = {Influence of domain wall pinning on the dynamic behavior of magnetic vortex structures: Time-resolved scanning x-ray transmission microscopy in NiFe thin film structures}, series = {Physical Review B}, volume = {77}, journal = {Physical Review B}, number = {14}, publisher = {American Physical Society}, issn = {1098-0121}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevB.77.144420}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{SenthurAnandRameshKumaretal.2022, author = {Senthur, N.S. and Anand, C and Ramesh Kumar, M and Elumalai, P.V. and Shajahan, Mohamed Iqbal and Benim, Ali Cemal and Nasr, Emad Abouel and Hussein, H.M.A. and Parthasarathy, M.}, title = {Influence of cobalt chromium nanoparticles in homogeneous charge compression ignition engine operated with citronella oil}, series = {Energy Science \& Engineering}, volume = {10}, journal = {Energy Science \& Engineering}, number = {4}, publisher = {Wiley}, issn = {2050-0505}, doi = {10.1002/ese3.1088}, pages = {1251 -- 1263}, year = {2022}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LudwigBuechelHerderetal.2012, author = {Ludwig, Philipp and B{\"u}chel, Joachim and Herder, Jens and Vonolfen, Wolfgang}, title = {InEarGuide - A Navigation and Interaction Feedback System using In Ear Headphones for Virtual TV Studio Productions}, series = {9.

The system consists of an optical head tracking system, a wireless in ear monitor system and a workstation, which performs all application and audio processing. Using head related transfer functions, the talent gets directional and distance cues.
