Within the context of Industry 4.0, we integrate wear monitoring of solid carbide milling and drilling cutters automatically into the production process. Therefore, we propose to analyze wear types with image instance segmentation using Mask R-CNN with feature pyramid and bounding box regression. Our approach is able to recognize the five most important wear types: flank wear, crater wear, fracture, built-up edge and plastic deformation. While other methods use image classification and classify only one wear type for each image, our model is able to detect multiple wear types. Over 35 models with different hyperparameter settings were trained on 5,000 labeled images to establish a reliable classifier. The results show up to 82.03\% accuracy and benefit for overlapping wear types, which is crucial for using the model in production.}, language = {en} } @article{DongDuchesneMohanetal.2020, author = {Dong, Yuchan and Duchesne, Paul and Mohan, Abhinav and Ghuman, Kulbir Kaur and Kant, Paul and Hurtado, Lourdes and Ulmer, Ulrich and Loh, Joel Y.

The energy required to drive these reactions has historically been derived from the combustion of non-renewable fossil fuels and carries an unavoidably large carbon footprint. More recently, the development of environmentally responsible and sustainable chemical industries is increasingly motivated by greenhouse gas-induced climate change, thus creating demand for eco-friendly heterogeneous catalytic processes. This includes innovative approaches enabled by renewable forms of energy, such as the electrification of chemical and petrochemical processes, utilization of CO2 as a feedstock and the incorporation of light into catalytic reactions. Herein we review the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy using CO2, and describe how the photophysical and photochemical properties of nanostructured metal oxide photocatalysts have been engineered to efficiently incorporate light into heterogeneous gas-solid CO2 hydrogenation reactions. Realizing high photonic and energy efficiencies in these systems has demanded innovation in not only photocatalyst engineering, but also photoreactor and process engineering. Rather than exclusively providing an in-depth discussion of the chemistry and science within each individual study, this Tutorial Review highlights the multidisciplinary character of photocatalysis studies by covering the four essential components of a typical research work in this field (materials engineering, theoretical modelling, reactor engineering and process development) via case studies of the archetypal indium oxide catalyst materials. Through advances in these four components, progress has been made towards the ultimate goal of industrializing the production of CO2-derived chemicals and fuels.}, language = {en} } @article{MohanUlmerHurtadoetal.2020, author = {Mohan, Abhinav and Ulmer, Ulrich and Hurtado, Lourdes and Loh, Joel and Li, Young Feng and Tountas, Athanasios A. and Krevert, Carola and Chan, Chakyu and Liang, Yilei and Brodersen, Peter and Sain, Mohini M. and Ozin, Geoffrey A.}, title = {Hybrid Photo- and Thermal Catalyst System for Continuous CO2 Reduction}, series = {ACS Applied Materials \& Interfaces}, volume = {12}, journal = {ACS Applied Materials \& Interfaces}, number = {30}, publisher = {American Chemical Society (ACS)}, issn = {1944-8244}, doi = {10.1021/acsami.0c06232}, pages = {33613 -- 33620}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Heterogeneous thermal catalytic processes are vital for industrial production of fuels, fertilizers, and other chemicals necessary for sustaining human life. However, these processes are highly energy-intensive, requiring a vast consumption of fossil fuels. An emerging class of heterogeneous catalysts that are thermally driven but also exhibit a photochemically enhanced rate can potentially reduce process energy intensity by partially substituting conventional heat (where fossil fuels are needed) with solar energy. Such catalyst systems have yet to be practically utilized. Here, we demonstrate a compact electrically heated photo- and thermal annular reactor module to reduce CO2 to CO, via the reverse water gas shift reaction. A first-principles-based design approach was taken in developing a SiO2 on an Al photo- and thermal catalyst system for the model photo- and thermal indium oxide hydroxide (In2O3-x(OH)y) catalysts. A 5-fold light enhancement in the CO production rate and over 70 h of stable CO production were achieved. This represents the highest light enhancement effect reported for this model photocatalyst to date. The reactor presented herein allows continuous operation and a significant reduction of 31\% in heater power consumption when provided with an additional 2 suns of irradiation, demonstrating the strong photo- and thermal-harvesting performances of the catalyst system developed in this work.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{VoitSchneiderKriegbaum2020, author = {Voit, Thomas and Schneider, Alexander and Kriegbaum, Mathias}, title = {Towards an Empirically Based Gamification Pattern Language using Machine Learning Techniques}, publisher = {IEEE}, issn = {2377-570X}, doi = {10.1109/cseet49119.2020.9206223}, pages = {4}, year = {2020}, abstract = {The ineffectiveness of many gamification projects can be attributed to wrong decisions made during the conceptual design phase, especially in the selection of game design elements.
