Due to their composition, such elastomers possess unique magnetic field-dependent material properties. The present paper compiles the results of investigations on MAEs towards an approach of their potential application as vibrating sensor elements with adaptable sensitivity. Starting with the model-based and experimental studies of the free vibrational behavior displayed by cantilevers made of MAEs, it is shown that the first bending eigenfrequency of the cantilevers depends strongly on the strength of an applied uniform magnetic field. The investigations of the forced vibration response of MAE beams subjected to in-plane kinematic excitation confirm the possibility of active magnetic control of the amplitude-frequency characteristics. With change of the uniform field strength, the MAE beam reveals different steady-state responses for the same excitation, and the resonance may occur at various ranges of the excitation frequency. Nonlinear dependencies of the amplification ratio on the excitation frequency are obtained for different magnitudes of the applied field. Furthermore, it is shown that the steady-state vibrations of MAE beams can be detected based on the magnetic field distortion. The field difference, which is measured simultaneously on the sides of a vibrating MAE beam, provides a signal with the same frequency as the excitation and an amplitude proportional to the amplitude of resulting vibrations. The presented prototype of the MAE-based vibrating unit with the field-controlled "configuration" can be implemented for realization of acceleration sensor systems with adaptable sensitivity. The ongoing research on MAEs is oriented to the use of other geometrical forms along with beams, e.g. two-dimensional structures such as membranes.}, language = {de} } @misc{Briem, author = {Briem, Ulrich}, title = {Lebensdauerverhalten von Seildr{\"a}hten}, series = {13.

Sources for these tones are for example the vehicles' drivetrains but also other technical components. Depending on the driving conditions, due to the interaction of various dominant sources, audible tone complexes can occur. Similar to musical intervals, the different frequency ratios within these complexes can result in consonant or dissonant sensations. The strength of this sensation does not only depend on the frequency relation of the tones but also on their relative levels. In this study, different musical intervals were subjectively rated in terms of their specific consonant or dissonant character. Using an adaptive procedure, sound pairs, each consisting of a two-tone signal, where adjusted to equal dissonance by varying the level of the second tone of one of the two-tone signals. Using the same paradigm, also pairs of equal vehicle sound quality were obtained. With these results, it is possible to quantify dissonance, and theinfluence of dissonance on sound quality expressed in terms of level differences of two-tone signals. These results can help to make the concept of dissonance more useful for sound-engineering applications.}, language = {en} } @misc{MelznerPfeiferAltetal., author = {Melzner, Maximilian and Pfeifer, Christian and Alt, V. and S{\"u}ß, Franz and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {{\"A}nderung der Gelenkreaktionskraft bei Sch{\"a}digung des medialen Bandapparates im Ellenbogen}, series = {Zeitschrift fur Orthopadie und Unfallchirurgie}, volume = {158}, journal = {Zeitschrift fur Orthopadie und Unfallchirurgie}, number = {S01}, publisher = {Thieme}, doi = {10.1055/s-0040-1717270}, language = {de} } @article{WiesentSchultheissLullaetal., author = {Wiesent, Lisa and Schultheiß, Ulrich and Lulla, Philipp and Nonn, Aida and Noster, Ulf}, title = {Mechanical properties of small structures built by selective laser melting 316 L stainless steel - a phenomenological approach to improve component design}, series = {Materials Science \& Engineering Technology}, volume = {51}, journal = {Materials Science \& Engineering Technology}, number = {12}, publisher = {Wiley}, doi = {10.1002/mawe.202000038}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:898-opus4-14718}, pages = {1615 -- 1629}, abstract = {Experimental investigations are conducted to quantify the influence of specimen thickness and orientation on the mechanical properties of selective laser melted stainless steel 316 L. The results indicate that the mechanical strength and ductility increase with increasing specimen thickness until a saturation value is reached from a specimen thickness of about 2 mm. Specimen orientation dependency is pronounced for thin specimens (<1.5 mm), whereas only small deviations in strength are observed for thicker specimens with orientations of 30°, 45° and 90° to build direction. The mechanical properties of the specimen orientation of 0° to build direction shows great deviation to the other orientations and the smallest overall strength. A reliable design of selective laser melted components should account for specimen thickness and orientation, e. g. by a correction factor. Furthermore, it is recommended to avoid loads vertical (90°) and parallel (0°) to build direction to guarantee higher ductility and strength.}, language = {en} } @article{PremSindersbergerStriegletal., author = {Prem, Nina and Sindersberger, Dirk and Striegl, Birgit and B{\"o}hm, Valter and Monkman, Gareth J.}, title = {Shape memory effects using magnetoactive Boron-organo-silicon oxide polymers}, series = {Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics}, volume = {221}, journal = {Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics}, number = {15}, publisher = {Wiley}, doi = {10.1002/macp.202000149}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:898-opus4-23205}, pages = {1 -- 8}, abstract = {Thermomechanical shape memory materials have certain disadvantages when it comes to 3D volumetric reproduction intended for rapid prototyping or robotic prehension. The need to constantly supply energy to counteract elastic retraction forces in order to maintain the required geometry, together with the inability to achieve conformal stability at elevated temperatures, limits the application of thermal shape memory polymers. Form removal also presents problems as most viscoelastic materials do not ensure demolding stability. This work demonstrates how magnetoactive boron-organo-silicon oxide polymers under the influence of an applied magnetic field can be used to achieve energy free sustainable volumetric shape memory effects over extended periods.

However, limited information is currently available about the effects of this reconstruction type at the head cup interface, compared to an anatomical reconstruction that maintains the natural lever arms. Through a whole-body simulation analysis, we compared medialised versus anatomical reconstruction in THA to analyse the effects on: (1) contact force magnitude at the head cup interface; (2) contact force path in the cup; and (3) abductor activity. Methods: Musculoskeletal simulations were performed to calculate the above-mentioned parameters using inverse dynamics analysis. The differences between the virtually implanted THAs were calculated to compare the medialised versus anatomical reconstruction. Results: Cup medialisation with compensatory femoral offset increase led to: (1) a reduction in contact force magnitude at the head cup interface up to 6.6\%; (2) a similar contact force path in the cup in terms of sliding distance and aspect ratio; and (3) a reduction in abductor activity up to 17.2\% (gluteus medius). Conclusions: In our opinion, these potential biomechanical gains do not generally justify a fully medialised reconstruction, especially in younger patients that are more likely to undergo revision surgery in their lifetime. Cup medialisation should be performed until sufficient press fit and bony coverage of a properly sized and oriented cup can be achieved.}, subject = {H{\"u}ftgelenkprothese}, language = {en} } @article{AurbachSpickaSuessetal., author = {Aurbach, Maximilian and Spicka, Jan and S{\"u}ß, Franz and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Evaluation of musculoskeletal modelling parameters of the shoulder complex during humeral abduction above 90°}, series = {Journal of Biomechanics}, volume = {106}, journal = {Journal of Biomechanics}, number = {June}, publisher = {Elsevier}, doi = {10.1016/j.jbiomech.2020.109817}, abstract = {Based on electromyographic data and force measurements within the shoulder joint, there is an indication that muscle and resulting joint reaction forces keep increasing over an abduction angle of 90°. In inverse dynamics models, no single parameter could be attributed to simulate this force behaviour accordingly. The aim of this work is to implement kinematic, kinetic and muscle model modifications to an existing model of the shoulder (AnyBody™) and assess their single and combined effects during abduction up to 140° humeral elevation. The kinematics and the EMG activity of 10 test subjects were measured during humeral abduction. Six modifications were implemented in the model: alternative wrapping of the virtual deltoid muscle elements, utilization of a three element Hill model, strength scaling, motion capture driven clavicle elevation/protraction, translation of the GH joint in dependency of the acting forces and an alteration of the scapula/clavicle rhythm. From the six modifications, 16 different combinations were considered. Parameter combinations with the Hill model changed the resultant GH joint reaction force and led to an increase in force during abduction of the humerus above 90°. Under the premise of muscle activities and forces within the GH joint rising after 90° of humeral abduction, we propose that the Hill type muscle model is a crucial parameter for accurately modelling the shoulder. Furthermore, the outcome of this study indicates that the Hill model induces the co-contraction of the muscles of the shoulder without the need of an additional stability criterion for an inverse dynamics approach.}, subject = {Schultergelenk}, language = {en} }
