In this work, we present a novel approach that allows quantitative analysis of individual emission spots from integral current-voltage measurements using a low-cost and commercially available CMOS camera. By combining different exposure times to extrapolate oversaturated and underexposed pixels, a near congruence of integral current and image brightness is shown. The extrapolation also allows parallel investigation of all individual tips participating in the total current with currents ranging from a few nanoampere to one microampere per tip. The sensitivity, which is determined by the integral brightness-to-current ratio, remains unchanged within the measurement accuracy even after ten full measurement cycles. Using a point detection algorithm, the proportional current load of each individual tip of the field emitter array is analyzed and compared at different times during the initial measurement cycle. Together with the extracted I-V curves of single emission spots from the integral measurement, the results indicate the effect of premature burnout of particularly sharp tips during conditioning of the emitter.}, language = {en} } @article{WeberSuessJerabeketal., author = {Weber, Markus and Suess, Franz and Jerabek, Seth and Meyer, Matthias and Grifka, Joachim and Renkawitz, Tobias and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Kinematic pelvic tilt during gait alters functional cup position in total hip arthroplasty}, series = {Journal of Orthopaedic Research}, volume = {40}, journal = {Journal of Orthopaedic Research}, number = {4}, publisher = {Wiley}, issn = {1554-527X}, doi = {10.1002/jor.25106}, pages = {846 -- 853}, abstract = {Static pelvic tilt impacts functional cup position in total hip arthroplasty (THA). In the current study we investigated the effect of kinematic pelvic changes on cup position. In the course of a prospective controlled trial postoperative 3D-computed tomography (CT) and gait analysis before and 6 and 12 months after THA were obtained in 60 patients. Kinematic pelvic motion during gait was measured using Anybody Modeling System. By fusion with 3D-CT, the impact of kinematic pelvic tilt alterations on cup anteversion and inclination was calculated. Furthermore, risk factors correlating with high pelvic mobility were evaluated. During gait a high pelvic range of motion up to 15.6° exceeding 5° in 61.7\% (37/60) of patients before THA was found. After surgery, the pelvis tilted posteriorly by a mean of 4.0 ± 6.6° (p < .001). The pelvic anteflexion led to a mean decrease of -1.9 ± 2.2° (p < .001) for cup inclination and -15.1 ± 6.1° (p < .001) for anteversion in relation to the anterior pelvic plane (APP). Kinematic pelvic changes resulted in a further change up to 2.3° for inclination and up to 12.3° for anteversion. In relation to the preoperative situation differences in postoperative cup position ranged from -4.4 to 4.6° for inclination and from -7.8 to 17.9° for anteversion, respectively. Female sex (p < .001) and normal body weight (p < .001) correlated with high alterations in pelvic tilt. Kinematic pelvic changes highly impact cup anteversion in THA. Surgeons using the APP as reference should aim for a higher anteversion of about 15° due to the functional anteflexion of the pelvis during gait.}, subject = {H{\"u}ftgelenkprothese}, language = {en} } @techreport{LermerHeissGierletal., author = {Lermer, Valentin josef and Heiß, Simon and Gierl, Philipp and Rappl, Veronika and Ardaya-Lieb, Samuel and M{\"o}hring, Christoph and Solisch, Matthias and Solisch, Tobias and Garschhammer, Kilian and Kammerl, Andreas and Kolb, Moritz and Hohenadler, Franz and Reber, Luis and Hartwig, Anton and Schaller, Jonas and Meyer, Katrin and Lausser, Florian}, title = {FMS-BERICHTE SOMMERSEMESTER 2022}, editor = {Meier, Hans and Niemetz, Michael and Fuhrmann, Thomas and Reindl, Andrea}, address = {Regensburg}, organization = {Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg / Fakult{\"a}t Elektro- und Informationstechnik}, doi = {10.35096/othr/pub-5468}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:898-opus4-54685}, pages = {II, 82}, abstract = {Dieser Bericht entstand im Rahmen der Lehrveranstaltung „Forschungsmethoden und Seminar (FMS)" im Sommersemester 2022 auf Initiative der Studierenden des Masterstudiengangs „Elektro- und Informationstechnik (MEI)".

For static point-to-point communication we define measures for congestion, dilation, and energy consumption that take interferences among communication links into account. We show that energy-optimal path selection for radio networks can be computed in polynomial time. Then we introduce the diversity g(V) of a set V ⫅ ℝd for any constant d. It can be used to upper bound the number of interfering edges. For real-world applications it can be regarded as Θ(log n). A main result is that a c-spanner construction as a communication network allows one to approximate the congestion-optimal path system by a factor of O(g(V)2). Furthermore, we show that there are vertex sets where only one of the performance parameters congestion, dilation, and energy can be optimized at a time. We show trade-offs lower bounding congestion × dilation and dilation × energy. The trade-off between congestion and dilation increases with switching from two-dimensional to three-dimensional space. For congestion and energy the situation is even worse. It is only possible to find a reasonable approximation for either congestion or energy minimization, while the other parameter is at least a polynomial factor worse than in the optimal network.}, language = {en} }
