In the dynamic testing of jet engines the evaluation of loads on the mount structure is vital for comparison with finite element calculations of such testing. Measuring these loads with the help of strain gauges applied to the structure becomes difficult if the mount is overdetermined and thus not every strain gauge can be assigned to a single load direction. In this study, the overdetermined mount structure of the BR715 engine was examined at one of the three mounting points between the Boeing 717 airframe and the engine, where loads in five directions were reacted. Firstly, the dependence of five measured strains upon known static load conditions at the mounting point had to be determined. For this purpose a static calibration test was carried out where defined forces and moments in known directions were applied to the structure while the output from five strain gauges was measured accordingly. The result was the desired relationship between loads and strains in terms of a matrix, which yields the corresponding load condition of the examined mounting point if multiplied with a set of strains. The same calibration procedure was carried out with a finite element model of the mount, where direct comparison to dynamic load results from the model itself was possible. With this model the validity of the above method was shown as well as possible errors which may occur while evaluating dynamic test results. The method was found to give satisfactory results even for dynamic loading, although some inertia forces disturb the signals in dynamic testing. Finally, the results from an actual dynamic engine test were processed into loads and then compared to the simulated loads from a finite element model of the engine. Good agreement was found and the indication of any remaining discrepancies was used to update the model for an even better representation of the dynamic test loads.
Virtual environment walkthrough applications are generally enhanced by a user’s interactions within a simulated architectural space, but the enhancement that stems from changes in spatial sound that are coupled with a user’s behavior are particularly important, especially within regard to creating a sense of place. When accompanied by stereoscopic image synthesis, spatial sound can immerse the user in a high-realism virtual copy of the real world. An advanced virtual environment that allow users to change realtime rendering features with a few manipulations has been shown to enable switching between different versions of a modeled space while maintaining sensory immersion. This paper reports on an experimental project in which an architectural model is being integrated into such an interactive virtual environment. The focus is on the spatial sound design for supporting interaction, including demonstrations of both the possibilities and limitations of such applications in presenting and promoting architectural designs, as well as in three-dimensional sketching.
Virtual set environments for broadcasting become more sophisticated as well as the visual quality improves. Realtime interaction and production-specific visualization implemented through plugin mechanism enhance the existing systems like the virtual studio software 3DK. This work presents an algorithm which can dynamically manage textures of high resolution by prefetching them depending on their requirement in memory and map them on a procedural mesh in realtime. The main goal application of this work is the virtual representation of a flight over a landscape as part of weather reports in virtual studios and the interaction by the moderator.
Die Akzeptanz und Verbreitung von PKI-Lösungen (Public Key Infrastructure) nimmt in den letzten Jahren zwar zu, ein Durchbruch ist jedoch bisher nicht gelungen. Ein Grund dafür ist das aufwändige und für den Endanwender schwer zu durchschauende Verfahren, um an ein SSL-Zertifikat zu gelangen. Die hohen Sicherheitsanforderungen einer qualifizierten Zertifizierung stehen derzeit dem flächendeckenden Einsatz entgegen. Um die Akzeptanz von PKI-Lösungen zu erhöhen, bieten sich – sowohl im universitären als auch im außeruniversitären Umfeld – Zertifikate, das sind elektronische Identitätsbescheinigungen für Personen und Maschinen, die den Personen oder Maschinen eindeutig Signaturprüfschlüssel zuordnen, an. Solche Zertifikate können auch in automatisierten Verfahren ausgestellt werden. Dieser Artikel beschreibt die zur automatisierten Vergabe von Zertifikaten erforderlichen Verfahrensweisen und Sicherheitsvorkehrungen.
