Sept. 2021 N2 - Bei Zugschwellversuchen kann sowohl die Amplituden- als auch die Mittelspannung frei eingestellt werden. Für eine zusammenfassende Auswertung müssen Amplituden- und Mittelspannungen durch eine einzige sogenannte äquivalente Spannung ersetzt werden. Die Bestimmung dieser äquivalenten Spannung setzt die Kenntnis des sogenannten Mittelspannungseinflusses voraus, der sich von Material zu Material unterscheidet. Aus der Literatur werden die gängigen Modelle zur Beschreibung des Mittelspannungseinflusses bei metallischen Werkstoffen vorgestellt. Daraus werden erstmals geeignete Modelle für Seildrähte abgeleitet. Dadurch lassen sich für Seildrähte die ertragbaren Lastwechselzahlen bei Zugschwellversuchen zuverlässig abschätzen und damit eine allgemeine Beschreibung ihres Materialermüdungsverhaltens angeben.

The antagonistically actuated joint acts as a test bench for control architectures which are going to be used to control an exoskeleton within a telerobotic system. A static and dynamic model of the muscle and the joint is derived and the parameters of the models are identified using a least-squares algorithm. The control architecture, consisting of a inner pressure and an outer position controller is presented. The pressure controller is evaluated using switching valves compared against proportional valves.

Special attention has been paid on simple but effective tire modeling of semi-physical type. In previous investigations, experimental validation showed that the well-known first-order Kelvin-Voigt model, described by a spring and damper element, describes good suitability around fixed operation points, but is limited for a wide working range. When aiming to run vehicle dynamics models within a frequency band of excitation up to 8 Hz, these models deliver remarkable deviations from measured tire characteristics. To overcome this limitation, a nonlinear Maxwell spring-damper element was introduced which is qualified to model the dynamic hardening of the elastomer materials of the tire. However, the advantage of a more realistic description of the transient behavior leads to a more complex parametrization process. Therefore, in the proposed article attention is paid to describe the identification process including defined maneuvers to parameterize the tire model, where the accuracy of the parameter strongly depends on the quality of the available input data from measurement. In order to study this important aspect of parameterization, the reference data from simulation of the full physical tire model FTire is applied like a “virtual measurement” of specified testing maneuvers. The procedure of simulation by means of the enhanced first order dynamics model is implemented by the semi-physical tire model TMeasy. Finally, the improvements of the extended model are discussed and an outlook for future work is given.

A single model of the whole system is obtained by a combined physical and phenomenological modeling approach. The combined model for the joint, the muscles and the proportional valves results in a nonlinear, affine-in-control system description. The model is used to derive control laws for an input/output linearization approach to linearize the plant. Modeling and parametrization errors are covered via an outer control loop consisting of a state-feedback which is extended by an additional feedback of error integral. Extensive experimental results show the quality of the model and the performance of the respective control laws.

They even share the same working space and time. An intuitive interaction with different input modalities is decisive to reduce workload and training periods for collaboration. We introduce our interaction system that is able to recognize gestures, actions and objects in a typical smart working scenario. As key aspect, this article considers an empirical investigation of input modalities (touch, gesture), individual differences (performance, recognition rate, previous knowledge) and boundary conditions (level of automation) on user experience. Therefore, answers from 31 participants within two experiments are collected. We show that the arrangement of the human-robot collaboration (input modalities, boundary conditions) has a significant effect on user experience in real-world environments. This effect and the individual differences between participants can be measured utilizing recognition rates and standardized usability questionnaires.

Für einen störungsfreien Betrieb eines Motors mit Rapsölkraftstoff sind jedoch Modifikationen an Motorkomponenten und Motorsteuergerät notwendig, um eine effiziente Verbrennung im Motor zu erreichen. Ziel des Vorhabens ist die Erarbeitung von Grundlagen zur Auslegung der Motorsteuerung pflanzenöltauglicher Offroad-Motoren mit moderner Abgasnachbehandlung mit anschließender entsprechender Abstimmung der Motorapplikation am Prüfstand. Grundlegende Untersuchungen der physikalischen Prozessabläufe von R100 bei der Einspritzung werden an einem hydraulischen Druckanstiegsanalysator (HDA) und einer Hochdruck-Hochtemperatur-Kammer (HDHT-Kammer) durchgeführt. Unterschiede im Zünd- und Brennverhalten werden in einer Konstantvolumenbrennkammer untersucht. Abschließend werden die Erkenntnisse am Motorenprüfstand auf einen DEUTZ-Motor übertragen, dessen Einspritzsystem auch bei den grundlegenden Untersuchungen verwendet wurde. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass das Einspritzverhalten von R100 eine höhere Sensitivität gegenüber Kraftstofftemperaturvariationen aufweist als Dieselkraftstoff. Bei niedrigen raftstofftemperaturen sind mit R100 ein längerer Öffnungsverzug und eine geringere Einspritzmenge festzustellen. Um diesen Einfluss bei der Einspritzstrategie zu kompensieren, ist die Kenntnis der Kraftstofftemperatur im Injektor notwendig. Eine weitere Herausforderung stellt die Gemischaufbereitung dar, hier führen unter anderem die höhere Viskosität und höhere Siedetemperaturen von R100 zu einem schmäleren Spritzwinkel und verzögerter Verdampfung im Vergleich zum Dieselkraftstoff. Eine Erhöhung des Einspritzdrucks und höhere Temperaturen und Drücke in der Brennkammer verbessern die Gemischaufbereitung. Bei Bedingungen von mittlerer und hoher Last ist der Zündverzug von R100 kürzer und das Verbrennungsverhalten ähnlich zum Dieselkraftstoff. Eine geringere Wärmefreisetzung von R100 wird durch den geringeren Heizwert verursacht. Unter Bedingungen von niedriger Last und Motorstart ist ein längerer Zündverzug von R100 im Vergleich zum Dieselkraftstoff festzustellen. Eine Steigerung des Einspritzdrucks und höhere Brennkammerdrücke und -temperaturen führen bei beiden Kraftstoffen zu kürzeren Zündverzügen, der Einfluss dieser Parameter ist jedoch für R100 stärker als für Dieselkraftstoff. Voreinspritzungen führen bei beiden Kraftstoffen zu einer Verkürzung des Zündverzugs der Haupteinspritzung und zu einer geringeren Wärmefreisetzungsrate. Am Motorprüfstand ist bei gleicher Motorapplikation mit R100 eine geringere Leistung als mit Dieselkraftstoff festzustellen. Nach Angleichung der Motorleistung durch Anhebung der Einspritzmenge von R100 sind im Rohabgas Stickstoffoxid (NOX)- und Kohlenstoffmonoxidemissionen auf gleichem Niveau zu Dieselkraftstoff zu beobachten sowie geringere Partikelemissionen. Unter Verwendung eines DoE Vorgehens kann der Partikel-NOX - trade-off von R100 optimiert und Einstellparameter gefunden werden, in denen sowohl niedrigere NOX als auch niedrigere Partikelemissionen im Vergleich zum Dieselkraftstoff resultieren. Das installierte Abgasnachbehandlungssystem, bestehend aus einem Dieseloxidationskatalysator (DOC), Dieselpartikelfilter (DPF) und selektivem katalytischem Reduktionssystem (SCR), arbeitet für beide Kraftstoffe ähnlich und es scheint keine Anpassung der Dosierungsstrategie der wässrigen Harnstofflösung notwendig zu sein. Eine Regeneration des Partikelfilters mit R100 war nach Optimierung der Einstellparameter der Drosselklappe möglich. Motorkaltstart und Leerlauf sind herausfordernde Betriebsphasen, die für R100 einer weiteren Optimierung bedürfen. Eine Temperierung von R100 im Injektor auf 50–60 °C sowie eine Kompensation der Einspritzmenge in Abhängigkeit von der Kraftstofftemperatur sind mögliche Verbesserungsmaßnahmen. Zudem kann durch einen früheren Einspritzbeginn von R100 das Verbrennungsverhalten angepasst werden. Die Motorprüfstandsuntersuchungen bestätigen qualitativ die Erkenntnisse die mit dem hydraulischen Druckanstiegsanalysator (HDA), der Hochdruck-Hochtemperatur-Kammer (HDHT-Kammer) und der Konstantvolumenbrennkammer gewonnen wurden. Weitere Untersuchungen sind notwendig, um die Ergebnisse auf einen baugleichen, in einer mobilen Arbeitsmaschine eingebauten Motor zu transferieren, damit Informationen zur Dauerhaltbarkeit unter realen Bedingungen erhalten werden können. Weiterführende Forschungsarbeiten sind im Bereich der Betriebsphasen des Motorkaltstarts und Leerlaufs mit Rapsölkraftstoff nötig, um einen dauerhaft störungsfreien Betrieb in diesen Betriebsphasen zu erreichen. Die erzielten Erkenntnisse deuten darauf hin, dass hier noch viel Verbesserungspotenzial vorhanden ist.

Firstly it gives a brief derivation of two modelling principles regarding the deflection velocity in the considered direction of the tyre’s deformation. This is than followed by a brief description of the performed measurement procedure. From the measurements, a set of model parameters of the considered tyre, depending on different manoeuvre speeds and frequencies, is identified, where no particular fitting parameters for the tyre dynamics are needed. Based on these model parameters, the related dynamic simulations are carried out. The comparisons show that the applied first-order model describes the behaviour quite well within a certain operation range, whereas the second-order approach cannot deliver better results in spite of the longer computational time. However, for investigations within an enlarged frequency range of the steer input and at high slip angles, a more detailed model is recommended.

Unlike edges or segmented blobs, lines are not only an accumulation of certain feature pixels but can also be described in an easy and exact mathematical way. Besides a lot of different detection methods, the Hough transform has gained much attention in recent years. With increasing processing power and continuous development, computer vision algorithms get more powerful with respect to speed, robustness and accuracy. But there still arise problems when searching for the best parameters for an algorithm or when characterising and evaluating the results of feature detection tasks. It is often difficult to estimate the accuracy of an algorithm and the influences of the parameter selection. Highly interdependent parameters and preprocessing steps continually lead to only hardly comprehensible results. Therefore, instead of pure trial and error and subjective ratings, a systematic assessment with a hard, numerical evaluation criterion is suggested. The paper at hand deals with the latter ones by using a human-generated ground truth to approach the problem. Thereby, the accuracy of the surveyed Kernel-based Hough transform algorithm was improved by a factor of three. These results are used for the tracking of cylindrical markers and to reconstruct their spatial arrangement for a biomedical research application.

Unlike for sole camera calibration, only few comparative surveys for projector calibration methods exist. Therefore, in this paper, two readily available algorithms for the calibration of those arrays are studied and methods for the evaluation of the results are proposed. Additionally, statistical evaluations under consideration of different influencing factors like the hardware arrangement, the number of input images or the calibration target characteristics on the accuracy of the calibration results are performed.

In order to minimise the dynamic forces from the chassis transferred to the body structure, multibody simulation (MBS) can be used. The link between the road surface and the chassis is established by the tyre and its own structural dynamic characteristics. Therefore, it is substantial and the main goal of the present paper to investigate the Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) performance of two commercial physical tyre models available and commonly used in the market. The intention is to point out what kind of results (up-to-date) a user of these structural dynamic tyre models, namely FTire and CDtire/3D, will get with a focus on NVH. The authors strictly follow the established process of how to obtain the fitted tyre property files, as any other user of FTire and CDTire currently does. This process includes a measurement campaign of the real tyre and a subsequent fitting of the tyre property file. The fitting in this case is provided by the tyre model developers themselves, namely cosin and Fraunhofer ITWM. The tyre models are then integrated into the MBS software MSC.Adams where their performance will be assessed based on measured wheel-hub forces in the time and frequency domain up to 300 Hz.

T1 - Investigations of batch fluctuation regarding tribological conditions in series production of car body parts JF - International Journal of Material Forming N2 - Fluctuations of material properties are one reason for the occurrence of cracks and waviness in series production of car body parts. Especially fluctuating tribological conditions have an effect on the friction behavior and thus on the material flow. So far fluctuating material properties are not considered in the standard FE-simulation and consequently not in the tool design. In order to enhance the accuracy of the simulation result and thus improve the tool design regarding a robust process, the appearance of batch fluctuations has to be consistently understood. Therefore, the impact of varying lubricant quantities and roughness have been investigated. Several batches have been analyzed to identify the main influencing parameter regarding the friction behavior. Flat strip-drawing tests have been performed to determine the friction coefficient. The investigations have been performed by using material from the series production, as delivered. Since the amount of lubricant turns out to be the main influencing factor, the characteristics and appearance of the lubricant distribution has been analyzed in a further step. The analysis has shown that the distribution of the lubricant changes within one coil over the coil width and length. In addition, the time of storage has been identified as one main influencing factor on the homogeneity of the lubricant distribution over the coil width. Based on these findings, a method has been developed to map the series production conditions regarding the friction conditions in the simulation. Hence, simulations were performed using a side frame blank with different friction conditions, to investigate the impact on the forming result. The results reveal that by considering realistically existing tribological conditions, more scrap is to be expected compared to the conventional simulation. This leads to the conclusion that previous simulation results are too optimistic. Consequently, the introduced method offers the potential to optimize the tool design by considering fluctuating tribological conditions already in the process of development. Thus, it is possible to reduce scrap and increase productivity.

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.

A modification of models to each subject is complex and the effects on lumbar loading are difficult to assess. One objective of this work is to create a validated musculoskeletal human model, which facilitates a subject-specific modification of the lumbar geometry. In a second step, important parameters are identified in sensitivity studies and at last, a case study regarding multifidus muscle atrophy after a disc herniation is conducted. The results of the studies indicate that lumbar motion and loading is dependent on lumbar ligament stiffness. Furthermore, subject-specific modelling of the lumbar spine should include at least the vertebral height, disc height and lumbar lordosis. The results of the case study suggest that an overloading of the multifidus muscle could follow disc herniation. Additionally, a subsequent atrophy of the muscles could expose adjacent levels to an increased loading, but these findings are highly dependent on the individual.

Manufacturing processes often condition grafts to adapt them to the target flow conditions. Graft stiffness is influenced by material properties and dimensions and determines graft compliance. This proof-of-concept study evaluated a contact-free method to monitor biomechanical properties without compromising sterility. Forced vibration response analysis was performed on human umbilical vein (HUV) segments mounted in a buffer-filled tubing system. A linear motor and a dynamic signal analyser were used to excite the fluid by white noise (0-200 Hz). Vein responses were read out by laser triangulation and analysed by fast Fourier transformation. Modal analysis was performed by monitoring multiple positions of the vessel surface. As an inverse model of graft stiffening during conditioning, HUV were digested proteolytically, and the course of natural frequencies (NFs) was monitored over 120 min. Human umbilical vein showed up to five modes with NFs in the range of 5-100 Hz. The first natural frequencies of HUV did not alter over time while incubated in buffer (p = 0.555), whereas both collagenase (-35%, p = 0.0061) and elastase (-45%, p < 0.001) treatments caused significant decreases of NF within 120 min. Decellularized HUV showed similar results, indicating that changes of the extracellular matrix were responsible for the observed shift in NF. Performing vibration response analysis on vessel grafts is feasible without compromising sterility or integrity of the samples. This technique allows direct measurement of stiffness as an important biomechanical property, obviating the need to monitor surrogate parameters. Copyright (C) 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Firstly, experimental activity has been carried out for identification of the best performing activated carbon available on the market, through the evaluation of the achievable thermodynamic performance both under air conditioning and refrigeration conditions. Once identified the best performing activated carbon, the design of the adsorber was developed by experimental dynamic performance analysis, carried out by means of the Gravimetric-Large Temperature Jump (G-LTJ) apparatus available at CNR ITAE lab. Finally, the whole 0.5 kW refrigerator prototype was designed and built. First experimental results both under reference air conditioning and refrigeration cycles have been reported, to check the achievable performance. High Specific Cooling Powers (SCPs), 95 W/kg and 50 W/kg, for air conditioning and refrigeration respectively, were obtained, while the COP ranged between 0.09 and 0.11, thus showing an improvement of the current state of the art.

However, the potential and advantages of such systems have not yet been fully harnessed. A systematic approach is needed to design cooperative workflows. Here, an iterative, user-centred development cycle is presented for interactive human-robot applications, complementing traditional automation.

T1 - An ALE method for penetration into sand utilizing optimization-based mesh motion JF - Computers and Geotechnics N2 - The numerical simulation of penetration into sand is one of the most challenging problems in computational geomechanics. The paper presents an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) finite element method for plane and axisymmetric quasi-static penetration into sand which overcomes the problems associated with the classical approaches. An operator-split is applied which breaks up solution of the governing equations over a time step into a Lagrangian step, a mesh motion step, and a transport step. A unique feature of the ALE method is an advanced hypoplastic rate constitutive equation to realistically predict stress and density changes within the material even at large deformations. In addition, an efficient optimization-based algorithm has been implemented to smooth out the non-convexly distorted mesh regions that occur below a penetrator. Applications to shallow penetration and pile penetration are given which make use of the developments.

Conventional AHPs have a proven record in the first two aspects but crucial shortcomings in the last two. For this reason it has been imperative to search for alternative working pairs that could potentially provide comparable performance while also satisfying the rest of the conditions to the best extent possible. As part of a systematic approach towards this direction, a detailed cycle analysis was performed, utilizing an idealized AHP system containing a real working pair, which enabled the identification of five dimensionless parameters and key thermophysical properties that influence the system's thermodynamic efficiency and the circulation ratio. In order to validate those findings, these parameters were calculated and compared between conventional and alternative AHP refrigerants. It turned out that low molecular weight ratios between absorbent and refrigerant have a beneficial effect on both coefficient of performance and the circulation ratio. Furthermore, both the refrigerant acentric factor and the absorbent vaporization enthalpy shall be minimized to obtain better performance. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Hence, histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi), which alter protein acetylation, gene expression patterns, and cell fate decisions, represent promising new drugs for the therapy of these diseases. Whereas pan-HDACi inhibit all 11 Zn2+-dependent histone deacetylases (HDACs) and cause a broad spectrum of side effects, specific inhibitors of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6i) are supposed to have less side effects. We present the synthesis and biological evaluation of Marbostats, novel HDAC6i that contain the hydroxamic acid moiety linked to tetrahydro-β-carboline derivatives. Our lead compound Marbostat-100 is a more potent and more selective HDAC6i than previously established well-characterized compounds in vitro as well as in cells. Moreover, Marbostat-100 is well tolerated by mice and effective against collagen type II induced arthritis. Thus, Marbostat-100 represents a most selective known HDAC6i and the possibility for clinical evaluation of a HDAC isoform-specific drug.

To this end, an object-oriented program written in C++ was developed. The program is intended to be versatile and easily extensible in order to analyze different configurations of liquid rocket engines. The UML (Unified Modeling Language) tool is used to model the architecture of the codes. UML diagrams help to visualize the code structure and the communication between objects, enabling a high degree of abstraction. The cryogenics Vulcain and HM7B engines power cycles along with the staged-combustion SSME engine perform the verification of the codes. Finally, the influence of changes in design parameters on the performance and dry mass of the L75 rocket engine is analyzed.

The condensing boiler is applied to drive the zeolite-water heat pump for the heating base-load and to assist the heat pump in the so called “mixed operation” mode, in which both the heat pump and the condensing boiler are working in series to cover medium heating demands. Peak heating demands are covered by the condensing boiler in the so called “direct heating” mode. The three operation modes of the hybrid heating appliance have been technically described. In addition, the laboratory test conditions for estimating the seasonal heating performance according to the German Guideline VDI 4650-2 have been introduced. For both heating systems 35/28 °C and 55/45 °C, which represent the typical operating conditions of floor and high temperature radiating heating systems in Europe, seasonal heating gas utilization efficiencies of 1.34 and 1.26 have been measured, respectively with a ground heat source. In two field test installations in one-family houses in Germany, the introduced heating appliance showed 27% more seasonal gas utilization efficiency for heating and domestic hot water production, which is equivalent to a CO2-emission reduction of 20% compared to the gas condensing boiler technology.

In this paper, the authors explain their strategy and experiences. An automated process is proposed to achieve the challenging goals. A general overview on the origin, effects, and analysis of contaminants in CFRP structures and the relationship to the achievable strength of adhesive bonds are given. For the repair of composite structures using adhesive bonding, surface pretreatment is a key factor in terms of reliability and strength. Different surface treatment processes such as grinding, grit blasting, plasma and pulsed lasers treatments are discussed. Furthermore, the possibilities and technical implementation of an automated milling process for the repair of composite structures are presented. This change from manual production to automation tremendously improved the quality and duration of the repair and allows the creation of a uniform surface for adhesive bonding. Further integration of novel technologies is discussed and will further support and enhance the repair in the near future.

An extensive testing campaign has been carried out at the CNR ITAE laboratory, with multiple aims. First, the performance has been evaluated in terms of both COP and Specific Cooling Power (SCP), under different boundary conditions, including both air conditioning and refrigeration applications. Attractive SCPs, up to 180 W/kg and 70 W/kg for air conditioning and refrigeration, respectively, were measured. Under the same conditions, COP between 0.17 and 0.08 were obtained. In addition, different management strategies, namely, heat recovery between adsorbers and re-allocation of phase durations, were evaluated to identify their influence on the system. Both strategies confirmed the possibility of increasing COP and SCP up to 40% and 25%, respectively. Moreover, a design analysis based on the experimental results has been carried out, to suggest possible improvements of the system. The obtained results demonstrated the possibility of employing a non-toxic refrigerant like ethanol reaching performance comparable with other harmful refrigerants like ammonia and methanol.

Reduzierung präanalytischer Fehler und Verbesserung der zeitlichen Abläufe JF - Anaesthesist N2 - Kontinuierliche Bemühungen zur Vermeidung präanalytischer Fehler und zur Optimierung der zeitlichen Abläufe bei der Blutgasanalyse (BGA) sind wichtig. In einer prospektiven Beobachtungsstudie wurde untersucht, ob durch Einführung neuer, mit einem Strichcode versehener Probennehmer und von Analysatoren mit automatisierter Verarbeitung der Proben, verglichen mit dem bisherigen Vorgehen, Vorteile resultieren. In einer jeweils 4-wöchigen Testphase wurde für das herkömmliche BGA-System (Kontrollgruppe) und unter Verwendung der neuen, mit einem Strichcode versehenen Probennehmer und automatischer Prozessierung der Blutproben (Testgruppe) die Zeitdauer bis zum Vorliegen der Ergebnisse bei Durchführung einer BGA gemessen. Zudem wurde die Häufigkeit präanalytischer Fehler quantifiziert. Schließlich wurde untersucht, ob eine Liegedauer der Probennehmer von 10 min vor Vermessung der Probe Auswirkungen auf die resultierenden Ergebnisse des Sauerstoff- (pO2) und des Kohlendioxidpartialdrucks (pCO2) hat. In der Kontrollgruppe zeigten sich häufig präanalytische Fehler (Vernachlässigen des Entlüftens der Probennehmer und der Homogenisierung mithilfe des manuellen Schwenkens vor Beginn des Messvorgangs). Bei Analyse von BGA-Proben mit einer zeitlichen Latenz von 10 min nach Abnahme wurden in der Kontrollgruppe signifikant erhöhte pO2-Werte [Mittelwert (MW) 118,4 mmHg bei Messung unmittelbar nach Abnahme, MW 148,6 mmHg bei Messung mit 10-min-Latenz] und signifikant erniedrigte pCO2-Werte (40,5 vs. 38,3 mmHg) gemessen. In der Testgruppe zeigten sich signifikant erhöhte pO2-Werte (115,3 vs. 123,7 mmHg); die pCO2-Werte waren hier unverändert. Ein Zeitgewinn bis zum Vorliegen der Messergebnisse ließ sich in der Testgruppe nicht feststellen. Die Umstellung auf mit einem Strichcode versehene Probennehmer und automatisierte Verarbeitung der Blutproben am Analysator war im klinischen Alltag problemlos möglich. Ein Zeitgewinn bei der BGA resultierte nicht. Allerdings waren Vorteile im Hinblick auf die Reduzierung präanalytischer Fehler erkennbar. Eine verzögerte Analyse von Blutproben kann, abhängig vom Typ des Probennehmers, zu signifikanten und klinisch relevanten Veränderung der Messwerte von pO2 und pCO2 führen. Point of care testing with blood gas analysis (BGA) is an important factor for intensive care medicine. Continuous efforts to optimize workflow, improve safety for the staff and avoid preanalytical mistakes are important and should reflect quality management standards. In a prospective observational study it was investigated whether the implementation of a new system for BGA using labeled syringes and automated processing of the specimens leads to improvements compared to the previously used procedure. In a 4-week test period the time until receiving the final results of the BGA with the standard method used in the clinical routine (control group) was compared to the results in a second 4-week test period using the new labeled syringes and automated processing of the specimens (intervention group). In addition, preanalytical mistakes with both systems were checked during routine daily use. Finally, it was investigated whether a delay of 10 min between taking and analyzing the blood samples alters the results of the BGA. Preanalytical errors were frequently observed in the control group where non-deaerated samples were recorded in 87.3 % but in the intervention group almost all samples (98.9 %) were correctly deaerated. Insufficient homogenization due to omission of manual pivoting was seen in 83.2 % in the control group and in 89.9 % in the intervention group; however, in the intervention group the samples were homogenized automatically during the further analytical process. Although a survey among the staff revealed a high acceptance of the new system and a subjective improvement of workflow, a measurable gain in time after conversion to the new procedure could not be seen. The mean time needed for a complete analysis process until receiving the final results was 244 s in the intervention group and 201 s in the control group. A 10-min delay between taking and analyzing the blood samples led to a significant and clinically relevant elevation of the values for partial pressure of oxygen (pO(2)) in both groups compared to the results when analyzing the samples immediately (118.4 vs. 148.6 mmHg in the control group and 115.3 vs. 123.7 mmHg in the intervention group). When using standard syringes the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO(2)) was significantly lower (40.5 vs. 38.3 mmHg) whereas no alterations were seen when using the labeled syringes. The implementation of a new BGA system with labeled syringes and automated processing of the specimens was possible without any difficulties under daily clinical routine conditions in this 10-bed intensive care unit (ICU). A gain of time could not be measured but a reduction in preanalytical errors using the labeled syringes with automated processing was found. Delayed analysis of blood samples can lead to significant changes in pO(2) and pCO(2) depending on the type of syringe used.

The use of anhydrous alcohols however can cause several problems related to the corrosiveness of such molecules towards light alloys (from titanium to aluminium). The problem was already highlighted in bio-fuel technology where bio-ethanol was considered as a promise alternative to fossil hydrocarbons. Water content was observed as one of the main factors influencing corrosion rate. In the present works several accelerated corrosion tests on 6061 Aluminium alloy have been carried out in autoclave in a temperature range from 110 to 135 degrees C with different ethanol to aluminium mass ratio. Highly exothermic reactions related to aluminium oxidation, coupled to hydrogen evolution, have been recorded. The main drawback of hydrogen evolution is the formation of a stagnant layer over the heat exchangers surface, which can limit the ethanol vapour diffusion, thus reducing adsorption condensation rate.

This contribution discusses a new approach to learning transitions of a finite state automaton representing the sequence of work tasks based on the video stream of a 3D depth camera. Preprocessed video data is fed into a three-stage classification scheme based on support vector machines. The results of the classification are then related to the state automation to trigger state transitions indicating the completion of a specific work task and the start of the next one. The proposed approach has been evaluated at an industrial assembly process of moderate complexity and shows very robust results with respect to disturbances caused by inaccurate object classification.

ER - TY - BOOK A1 - Fauerbach, Ulrike T1 - Der große Pylon des Horus-Tempels von Edfu. Architektur und Bautechnik eines monumentalen Torbaus der Ptolemaierzeit N2 - n der oberägyptischen Stadt Edfu, 110 km flussaufwärts von Luxor gelegen, steht der am vollständigsten erhaltene Tempel des Alten Ägyptens. Das dem Horus geweihte Heiligtum wurde 237 v.Chr. unter Ptolemaios III. begonnen und in mehreren Bauphasen fertiggestellt. Als Letztes begann man 116 v.Chr. mit der Hofumfassung und dem monumentalen Pylon, der mit über 32 m Höhe den Tempel und die ihn umgebende Stadt überragt. Die geschlossene Fassade des Torbaus erweckt den Eindruck, dass es sich wie bei den Pylonen des Neuen Reiches um eine massive Konstruktion handelt. Dies hat dazu beigetragen, dass die bisherige Forschung das Innere des Bauwerks unbeachtet gelassen hat. Tatsächlich handelt es sich um ein achtgeschossiges Bauwerk mit zwei Treppenhäusern und 36 Innenräumen. Ulrike Fauerbach hat das Gebäude erstmals auf seine Architektur hin untersucht und in seinen bautypologischen Kontext eingeordnet. Es handelt sich um den höchsten erhaltenen Geschossbau des Alten Ägyptens und eröffnet allein dadurch neue Einblicke in die Transformationsphase von pharaonischer zu griechischer Bautechnik. Fauerbach kann nachweisen, dass die bis zu 50 t wiegenden Blöcke auf Rampen in die erforderliche Höhe gezogen und mit Hebeln versetzt wurden, obwohl zu dieser Zeit auf anderen Baustellen bereits Kräne eingesetzt wurden. Trotz dieser traditionellen Technik entstand ein Meisterwerk pharaonischer Baukunst, wie die Untersuchung zahlreicher Details, bspw. der Treppen, der Türen, der Belichtung, der Geheimtüren zu den Schatzkammern, der im Gebäude entdeckten Werkzeichnungen und nicht zuletzt der rituellen Nutzung des Bauwerks zeigt.

We have built a novel surface-EMG probe as a diagnostic device to investigate innervation patterns of sphincter muscles in further clinical diagnostic studies. S-EMG data were recorded from 20 healthy volunteers from the orbicularis oris muscles. We developed an automated analysis based on correlation in order to find phase inversions and thus innervation zones automatically. We compared our automated analysis with manual, visual analysis. Both techniques were reviewed for variance and showed reproducible results. Data from automated analysis were compared to visually analyzed data showing high consistency. Based on our automated analysis, we created an intuitive visualization of all measurements per person. We displayed the quality and quantity of the phase inversions found in a subject thus allowing for simple identification of innervation zones. We conclude that our set-up showed sufficient reliability for detection of motoric endplate activity and can be used for further clinical neurophysiological studies.

The increasing precision of mechatronic components generally leads to an increase in structural excitation and thus to a rise in noise. The so-called ticking of the fuel injection system has a rather low sound pressure level compared to the residual engine noise. Nevertheless, the impulsive and high frequency noise character leads to a decline concerning the perception of comfort and sound quality. In order to identify the sound quality of fuel injection systems as a frontloading measure, a system test bench has been developed which represents the structure-borne and airborne sound radiation of the stand-alone injection system in a close to series configuration. In this paper, measures for the acoustic optimization of injection systems and their effects on the robustness of the system are discussed. The focus is on engine idling, since at this operating point the ticking of the injectors and high-pressure pump can be perceived most clearly due to the low masking effects of other noise sources. For this purpose, the injection parameters were measured during full engine operation and transferred to the system test bench. By using a special development control unit, it was possible to modify the parameters, quantify their influence on the acoustic behavior and, based on this, define NVH optimized control strategies. For the robustness evaluation of the NVH optimized control strategies, key functions of the injection system were analyzed under varying boundary conditions in system operation on an injection rate test bench.

The current amount of soot and ash in the filter is calculated by a soot load model in the electronic control unit in combination with a differential pressure sensor determining the pressure drop over the particulate filter. Active regeneration is initiated if the calculated amount of soot or the measured differential pressure is too high. This is associated with additional fuel consumption. An on-board diagnosis for the particulate filter is currently not part of the Euro 6d emission standard. For future exhaust emission standards, on-board diagnosis or active monitoring of the particulate filter is conceivable. One of the benefits of monitoring is the fact that unnecessary active regenerations can be avoided. As a result, there is no additional fuel consumption due to misinterpretations of the amount of soot in the filter. For active monitoring of the particulate filter, a radiofrequency (RF-) sensor, that detects the soot loading of the filter with electromagnetic waves directly, can be used. Such a system has the advantage that by utilizing the filter as a sensor more precise information about the current state of the filter, e.g. a possible damage, can be provided. Worst-case considerations of filter damages, tested at an engine test bench show the advantages which are entailed by a system like that. By means of partial regeneration of the particulate filter it is demonstrated how the remaining amount of soot in the filter can be detected in a better way in comparison to the differential pressure sensor by using the RF-sensor.

In sicherheitstechnisch bedeutsamen Anwendungen wird der Kranbetrieb eingestellt, und zwar nur, weil in den entsprechenden Regelwerken die niedrigste genannte Arbeitstemperatur -40 °C ist. Aber ist dies technisch zwingend? Es wird über Versuche mit Seilen und Seildrähten berichtet, die sowohl bis -95 °C als auch bei Raumtemperatur durchgeführt wurden. Sowohl das Ermüdungsverhalten der Seildrähte als auch die Bruchkraft der Seile sind bei Temperaturen von -60 °C besser als bei Raumtemperatur. Dagegen wird das Ermüdungsverhalten der Seile schlechter. Dies ist aber hauptsächlich verursacht durch das Verhalten des verwendeten Konservierungsstoffs. Im Betrieb sind die Seile zusätzlich mit Endverbindungen versehen. Diese Komponenten müssen ebenfalls solchen tiefen Temperaturen widerstehen. Untersuchungen, ob Seilendverbindungen bei Tieftemperatur geeignet sind, waren allerdings nicht Gegenstand dieses Berichts. Daher ist es ratsam, beim Betrieb bei Tieftemperatur die Intervalle der Seilinspektion zu verkürzen. Konservierungsstoffe können ihre Wirkung verlieren und zu beschleunigter Seilermüdung führen - zum Beispiel bei Auslegerverstellseilen von Mobilkranen - und das Zusammenwirken von Seilen und ihren Endverbindungen bei tiefen Temperaturen ist nicht ausreichend erforscht und dokumentiert. Insgesamt können Seile bei Temperaturen von -60 °C sicher betrieben werden, wenn sowohl die Seile als auch ihre Endverbindungen regelmäßig inspiziert werden.

Investigations on the decomposition of AdBlue in the liquid phase under elevated pressure at temperatures up to 165 degrees C were carried out. Besides effects of inorganic catalysts, the impact of pH on urea decomposition was examined. After dissolution in aqueous phase, the compounds ZnO, WO3, and MoO3 were found to be effective in liquid-phase AdBlue decomposition. However, the efficiency was dropping significantly over few hours. Decomposition of AdBlue urea was also found to be favored for alkaline and acidic conditions.

However, at low exhaust temperatures, the SCR process is limited by difficulties in the decomposition of the ammonia precursor urea, which is carried on-board using an aqueous solution "AdBlue". In this study, the decomposition of AdBlue urea induced by electrical current and the resulting associated pH shifts were investigated in a divided cell configuration in the liquid phase. The decomposition was found to be favored in both electrochemical compartments, anodic and cathodic, at temperatures of 60-80 degrees C compared to a reference without electrochemical treatment. In addition to the determination of ammonia contents using an ammonia sensor, IC/HPLC analyses were carried out for each sample. Different side products such as biuret, nitrate, cyanuric acid, ammelide, and others were formed. In the anodic compartment, nitrate formation could be observed due to oxidation of ammonia at the electrode surface. [GRAPHICS] .

Februar 2018, Ludwigsburg N2 - Recent developments in exhaust gas legislation make it necessary to focus the research at the particulate emissions from gasoline engines and technologies for their reduction. In addition to the particulates resulting from the combustion of the fuel, the oil emissions represent another possible source for particulate emissions. This paper presents a measurement method which can be used to quantify stationary as well as dynamic oil emissions of gasoline engines. Furthermore, the correlation between the oil emissions and the particulate emissions is the focus of the investigations. Conventional methods for the determination of the oil emissions, such as the gravimetric and the volumetric measurement, are unsuitable since they require long engine operation times to provide useful results. These methods therefore do not allow a fast online measurements during the dynamic operation. For this reason, a new measuring method was used, which allows for a time-resolved online measurement of the oil emissions. This measurement method is based on the sulfur tracer method, which uses the sulfur that is naturally contained in the engine oil as a tracer. The sulfur concentration in the exhaust gas is determined by using an Ion-Molecule-Reaction mass spectrometer. The determination of the particulate emissions corresponds to the PMP regulation. The studies carried out under steady state and dynamic conditions show a clear correlation between the oil consumption and the number of particulates in the exhaust gas. In the case of the dynamic measurements it could also be shown that time-resolved measurements of the oil consumption are possible with the used measurement setup. In addition, it was shown that the number of particulates does not influence the measurement of the SO2-concentration. Furthermore, the different effects of burned and unburned oil emissions have been evaluated by the dosing of the oil into the exhaust gas. The overall conclusion of the measurements shows a strong influence of the oil emissions on the particulate emissions. Therefore, it is crucial to reduce the oil emissions. Possible approaches for this reduction can be improved turbocharger sealing concepts, new piston ring designs or more efficient oil separators for the crankcase ventilation system.

In a specified level of soil succession, a special kind of plant family benefits on the Fungal to Bacteria Ratio. The ability to determine this ratio in situ without complex chemical applications is part of the project Electronical Laboratory for Intelligent Soil Examination (ELISE). Several mechanical and optical tests on soil samples are covered within this Project. To analyze the fungal to bacteria ratio, samples are prepared automatically – in a defined and reproductive procedure – to generate slides for shadowing microscopy. The samples are observed by a camera, which is attached to a transmitted light microscope. The automatic analysis, done with computer vision algorithms, aims to quantify bacterial and fungal biomass in the actual sample view. Moreover, the algorithm can classify organisms according to their color and shape. To get a processable picture, several images from different focal levels must be taken through the sample thickness. Parts of each image, are in focus at the actual layer, are merged to a whole depth of field picture, by focus stacking. This produced picture is used to classify, locate and quantify – in first step filamentous organisms e.g. fungal by image sematic segmentation. The result represents an image sized mask, which indicates the class of fungi with class equivalate values at the pixel positions – covered by the organism. This information is used to calculate the fungal mass per gram soil. To quantify the bacterial biomass two approaches are implemented. For low density of bacterial existence, the individual bacteria is counted for a part of the field of view by an image detection algorithm to be extrapolate afterwards to the mass per gram soil. For high density of bacterial occurrence, specified regions of interest with only bacteria present are chosen. An image classification which has been pretrained by pictures of bacterial density patterns – previously determent by making the sample countable due to preforming sample dilutions, is done. The second option for high density bacterial count is, to automatically preform dilutions until the image detection is confidently countable. To ensure a usable confidence score a statistical approach of many fields of view is taken.

A1 - Gaderer, Matthias T1 - Difference in the Tailpipe Particle Number by Consideration of Sub-23-nm Particles for Different Injection Settings of a GDI Engine JF - Emission control science and technology N2 - The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristic of nanoparticles under consideration of sub-23-nm particles from a 1.8-l direct injection (DI) gasoline engine under stoichiometric air/fuel conditions in the exhaust gas system. For future CO2 challenges, the usage of DI-instead of port fuel injection (PFI)-gasoline engines is unavoidable. Therefore, a state of the art particle management program-particle number (PN) system, the Horiba SPCS (2100) with an integrated CPC (condensation particle counter), was recalibrated from a 50% cutoff (D-50%) at 23 nm down to a cutoff at 10 nm and the PCRF (particle concentration reduction factor) for sizes smaller than 23 nm was checked. Two different modal points, out of a representative Real Driving Emission (RDE) cycle, were investigated with both calibrations, D-50%=10 nm and D-50%=23 nm. For these different load points, the fuel pressure (FUP) and the start of injection (SOI) were varied, to represent the difference in the structure and the ratio conc((10 nm))/conc((23 nm)) of the nanoparticle emissions. The particle characterization includes the particle number (PN), the particle size distribution (PSD), and the particle mass (PM). The particle number was measured with Horiba SPCS (2100). The particle size distribution was analyzed with a Grimm differential mobility analyzer (DMA) in combination with a Faraday cup electrometer (FCE). Micro Soot and Pegasor were used to determine the PM, and an optical characterization was done with a 120-kV Phillips CM12 transmission electron microscope (TEM). The position of all particle measurement systems was downstream the three-way catalyst (TWC). The results of this investigation showed that a higher injection pressure decreases the PN (without consideration of sub-23-nm particles) in general. The ratio conc((10 nm))/conc((23 nm)) was therefore higher, because smaller particles, especially ash particles, were less reduced from the FUP. This means higher FUP tends to a higher ratio. For the SOI, the main reasons of the ratio differences were explained by an encroachment between the injection jet and the piston, the valve and the wall.

Therefore static and the dynamic calibrations of the temperature measurement devices were compared by a custom-built calibration specimen, which included five internal mantle thermocouples. Additionally the temperatures were measured on the specimens' surface. The experimental setups used were compared by executing TMF pre-test with the identical single-crystalline specimen. Subsequently TMF tests on coated single-crystalline Nickel-based superalloy PWA 1484 were carried out with temperature rates of 10K/s and 20 K/s. Finally the deviations of the determined TMF lives were evaluated.

To realize that in real-world manufacturing scenarios with an ecological valid setup, a lot of effort has to be invested. In this paper, we evaluate the impact of spontaneous inputs on the robustness of human-robot collaboration during gesture-based interaction. A high share of these spontaneous inputs lead to a reduced capability to predict behaviour and subsequently to a loss of robustness. We observe body and hand behaviour during interactive manufacturing of a collaborative task within two experiments. First, we analyse the occurrence frequency, reason and manner of human inputs in specific situations during a human-human experiment. We show the high impact of spontaneous inputs, especially in situations that differ from the typical working procedure. Second, we concentrate on implicit inputs during a real-world Wizard of Oz experiment using our human-robot working cell. We show that hand positions can be used to anticipate user needs in a semi-structured environment by applying knowledge about the semi-structured human behaviour which is distributed over working space and time in a typical manner.

Despite their continued importance, there is no systematic method of defining these control limits. However, sub-optimal control limits can lead to undetected faults or cause unnecessary interruption to production. This manuscript presents an algorithm that systematizes this manual process into an efficient search task. We conceptualized the search task as a sequence of sub-problems that are based on the conventional steps taken by process experts when defining control limits. This algorithm can be integrated into an expert tool for shop floor personnel to automate the definition of control limits in annotated time series data. We demonstrate the efficacy of the control limits found by our algorithm by comparing them to those manually defined by process experts in real-world process data from the automotive industry. Furthermore, we show that our algorithm generalizes to traditional time series classification problems and achieves state-of-the-art performance on selected benchmark datasets. Our work is the first effort in automating the otherwise manual definition of control limits for fault detection.

Nevertheless, knee laxity assessments presented in the literature suffer from significant drawbacks such as soft tissue artifacts, restricting the knee within the measurement, and the absence of quantitative knee ligament property information. In this study, we demonstrated the applicability of a novel methodology for measuring 3D knee laxity, combining robotics- and image-based technology. As such technology has never been applied to healthy living subjects, the aims of this study were to develop novel technology to measure 3D knee laxity in vivo and to provide proof-of-concept 3D knee laxity measurements. To measure tibiofemoral movements, four healthy subjects were placed on a custom-built arthrometer located inside a low dose biplanar X-ray system with an approximately 60 deg knee flexion angle. Anteroposterior and mediolateral translation as well as internal and external rotation loads were subsequently applied to the unconstrained leg, which was placed inside a pneumatic cast boot. Bone contours were segmented in the obtained X-rays, to which subject-specific bone geometries from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were registered. Afterward, tibiofemoral poses were computed. Measurements of primary and secondary laxity revealed considerable interpersonal differences. The method differs from those available by the ability to accurately track secondary laxity of the unrestricted knee and to apply coupled forces in multiple planes. Our methodology can provide reliable information for academic knee ligament research as well as for clinical diagnostics in the future.

In contrast to diesel applications, monitoring gasoline particulate filters (GPFs) by differential pressure sensors is challenging due to lower soot masses to be deposited in the GPFs. A different approach to determine the soot loading of GPFs is a radio frequency-based sensor (RF sensor). To facilitate sensor development, in previous work, a simulation model was created to determine the RF signal at arbitrary engine operating points. To ensure accuracy, the exact dielectric properties of the soot need to be known. This work has shown how small samples of soot-loaded filter are sufficient to determine the dielectric properties of soot itself using the microwave cavity perturbation method. For this purpose, mixing rules were determined through simulation and measurement, allowing the air and substrate fraction of the sample to be considered. Due to the different geometry of filter substrates compared to crushed soot samples, a different mixing rule had to be derived to calculate the effective filter properties required for the simulation model. The accuracy of the determined mixing rules and the underlying simulation model could be verified by comparative measurements on an engine test bench.

The inerter is defined to exert a force that is in proportion to the relative acceleration of the two inerter terminals. Here, two TMDI topologies are investigated. The conventional topology is given by the inerter being in parallel to the spring and viscous damper of the TMDI. The other topology is the serial arrangement of spring, inerter and viscous damper being in parallel to the stiffness of the mass spring oscillator of the TMDI. While the first topology intends to increase the inertial force of the TMDI, the second topology aims at producing an additional degree of freedom. The considered TMDI concepts are simulated for harmonic and random excitations, with parameters set according to those described in the literature and with numerically optimized parameters which minimize the primary structure displacement response. The classical TMD is used as a benchmark. The findings are twofold. The conventional TMDI with typical inertance ratio of 1% and the very small value of 0.02% performs significantly worse than the classical TMD with the same mass ratio. In contrast, the TMDI with an additional degree of freedom can improve the mitigation of the primary structure if the inertance ratio is set very small and if the TMDI parameters are numerically optimized.

In addition, a volumetric large temperature jump (V-LTJ) kinetic setup was applied to measure the adsorption and desorption kinetics of a small-scale adsorbent sample prepared dedicatedly to be representative for the adsorbent domain inside the investigated adsorber plate heat exchanger (APHE). All kinetic results of the small-scale adsorbent sample and the APHE were fitted into exponential forms with a single characteristic time constant (τ) with a coefficient of determination (R2) better than 0.9531. A very good matching between the small-scale and full-scale adsorption kinetic measurements was obtained, with an average relative deviation of 12.3% in the obtained τ-values. In addition, the kinetic data of the small-scale adsorbent sample were utilized for estimating the expected specific instantaneous and moving average powers of the evaporator/condenser heat exchanger. The average relative deviation (ARD) between the moving average specific evaporator powers obtained from the small-scale and the full-scale measurements amounts between 5.4 and 15.1%.

It turned out that the insulation properties of SATIS can be effectively improved by reducing the length of the glass closure element. Increasing the area share of the light conducting elements (LCEs) and decreasing their length-to-diameter (L/D) ratio were identified as key parameters in order to increase the solar gain. Two SATIS variants were compared with the same wall insulation without SATIS in a yearly energetic performance assessment. The SATIS variant with 10 mm length of the closure element, 44.2% area share of LCE, as well as front and rear diameters of 12 mm/9 mm shows an 11.8% lower transmission heat loss over the heating period than the wall insulation without SATIS. A new methodology was developed to enable the implementation of the computed solar gains of SATIS in 1D simulation tools. The result is a radiant heat flow map for integration as a heat source in 1D simulation models. A comparison between the 1D and 3D models of the inside wall heat fluxes showed an integral yearly agreement of 98%.

T1 - Degradation and release of tannic acid from an injectable tissue regeneration bead matrix in vivo JF - Journal of biomedical materials research, part B - Applied Biomaterials N2 - The development of multifunctional biomaterials as both tissue regeneration and drug delivery devices is currently a major focus in biomedical research. Tannic Acid (TA), a naturally occurring plant polyphenol, displays unique medicinal abilities as an antioxidant, an antibiotic, and as an anticancer agent. TA has applications in biomaterials acting as a crosslinker in polymer hydrogels improving thermal stability and mechanical properties. We have developed injectable cell seeded collagen beads crosslinked with TA for breast reconstruction and anticancer activity following lumpectomy. This study determined the longevity of the bead implants by establishing a degradation time line and TA release profile in vivo. Beads crosslinked with 0.1% TA and 1% TA were compared to observe the differences in TA concentration on degradation and release. We found collagen/TA beads degrade at similar rates in vivo, yet are resistant to complete degradation after 16 weeks. TA is released over time in vivo through diffusion and cellular activity. Changes in mechanical properties in collagen/TA beads before implantation to after 8 weeks in vivo also indicate loss of TA over a longer period of time. Elastic moduli decreased uniformly in both 0.1% and 1% TA beads. This study establishes that collagen/TA materials can act as a drug delivery system, rapidly releasing TA within the first week following implantation. However, the beads retain TA long term allowing them to resist degradation and remain in situ acting as a cell scaffold and tissue filler. This confirms its potential use as an anticancer and minimally invasive breast reconstructive device following lumpectomy.

T1 - Experimental Study of a Small-Size Vacuum Insulated Water Tank for Building Applications JF - Sustainability N2 - Insulation of thermal energy storage tanks is fundamental to reduce heat losses and to achieve high energy storage efficiency. Although water tanks were extensively studied in the literature, the enhancement of the insulation quality is often overlooked. The use of vacuum insulation has the potential to significantly reduce heat losses without affecting the dimension of the storage system. This paper shows for the first time the results of the heat losses tests done for a 0.535 m3 water tank for residential building applications built with a double wall vacuum insulation. The different tests show that the rate of heat losses strictly depends on the temperature distribution inside the tank at the beginning of the experiment. Compared to a conventional water tank insulated with conventional materials, the U-value of the lateral surface was reduced by almost three times (from 1.05 W/K·m2 to 0.38 W/K·m2) using vacuum insulation. However, the bottom part, which is usually used to place the support parts and the piping, is the critical design part of those tanks acting as a thermal bridge with the ambient and enhancing heat losses.

In order to reduce the iron oxide pellets (90% Fe2O3, 10% stabilizing cement), hydrogen (H2) is applied in different concentrations with nitrogen (N2), as a carrier gas, at temperatures between between 700 ∘C and 900 ∘C, thus simulating the charging phase. The discharge phase is triggered by the flow of a mixture out of steam (H2O) and N2 at different concentrations in the same temperature range, resulting in the oxidizing of the previously reduced pellets. All investigations were carried out in a thermo-gravimetric analyzer (TGA) with a flow rate of 250mL/min. To describe the obtained kinetic results, a simplified analytical model, based on the linear driving force model, was developed. The investigated iron oxide pellets showed a stable redox performance of 23.8% weight reduction/gain, which corresponds to a volumetric storage density of 2.8kWh/(L bulk), also after the 29 performed redox cycles. Recalling that there is no H2 stored during the storage phase but iron, the introduced hydrogen storage technology is deemed very promising for applications in urban areas as day-night or seasonal storage for green hydrogen.

One drawback of this multivariate approach is that it is not, in general, compatible with the analysis of group data. Various techniques have been proposed to overcome this limitation of ICA. In this paper, a novel ICA-based workflow for extracting resting-state networks from fMRI group studies is proposed. An empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is used, in a data-driven manner, to generate reference signals that can be incorporated into a constrained version of ICA (cICA), thereby eliminating the inherent ambiguities of ICA. The results of the proposed workflow are then compared to those obtained by a widely used group ICA approach for fMRI analysis. In this study, we demonstrate that intrinsic modes, extracted by EMD, are suitable to serve as references for cICA. This approach yields typical resting-state patterns that are consistent over subjects. By introducing these reference signals into the ICA, our processing pipeline yields comparable activity patterns across subjects in a mathematically transparent manner. Our approach provides a user-friendly tool to adjust the trade-off between a high similarity across subjects and preserving individual subject features of the independent components.

Storage technologies play an essential role in compensating the discrepancy between surplus energy and peak times. Sorption processes, in particular, offer an environment friendly way for almost loss-free heat (of adsorption or absorption) and cold storage. This work is dedicated first to analytically investigate the potential of applying NaY-Water/Zeolite as a working pair for heat and cold storage upon utilizing high temperature heat. It turned out that, the mass of the adsorber heat exchanger increases the useful specific heat stored from 229 kWh/tzeolite for the ideal storage to 538 kWh/tzeolite or even higher depending on the thermal capacity of the adsorber heat exchanger (AdsHX). Contrary to that trend, COP will decrease with increasing the thermal capacity of the AdsHX. Sensible heat losses between charging and discharging phases do have a negative effect on both stored heating capacity and COP. In addition, an innovative hybrid steam power cum adsorption storage process is introduced and analytically investigated at different ambient conditions and time scenarios for on-peak and off-peak durations over the day. The introduced hybrid process seems quite promising in achieving electrical power production and efficiency enhancements during peak load durations. The extent of enhancing both performance indicators increases with increasing the ambient temperature difference between peak and off-peak times.

As for diesel applications, GPFs can be monitored via differential pressure sensors or using a radio-frequency approach (RF sensor). Due to largely differing soot properties and engine operating modes of gasoline compared to diesel engines (e.g., the possibility of incomplete regenerations), the behavior of both sensor systems must be investigated in detail. For this purpose, extensive measurements on engine test benches are usually required. To simplify the sensor development, a simulation model was developed using COMSOL Multiphysics((R)) that not only allowed for calculating the loading and regeneration process of GPFs under different engine operating conditions but also determined the impact on both sensor systems. To simulate the regeneration behavior of gasoline soot accurately, an oxidation model was developed. To identify the influence of different engine operating points on the sensor behavior, various samples generated at an engine test bench were examined regarding their kinetic parameters using thermogravimetric analysis. Thus, this compared the accuracy of soot mass determination using the RF sensor with the differential pressure method. By simulating a typical driving condition with incomplete regenerations, the effects of the soot kinetics on sensor accuracy was demonstrated exemplarily. Thereby, the RF sensor showed an overall smaller mass determination error, as well as a lower dependence on the soot kinetics.

This concept significantly enhances the biodiesel production's profitability and thus strongly contributes to the sustainability of future biofuels. After simple addition reactions with building block chemicals, less hydrophilic glycerol derivatives are obtained, which are compatible with biofuels. Even more, the products of the reactions of glycerol with acetone or butyric acid, referred to as solketal and tributyrin, respectively, lead to promising biofuels in mixtures with rapeseed oil and its biodiesel. Due to their low freezing points, they act as cloud and freezing point depressants, when added to vegetable oil/biodiesel blends. Further, since their viscosity is close to common biodiesel, biofuels containing high amounts of vegetable oil and even more glycerol derivatives than they arise during the biodiesel production can be obtained. Thus, this new class of biofuels enables adaptable compositions depending on the application and also the usage as drop-in fuel without any or just few percent of further additives. After optimising the formulations, ignition delay, exhaust gas recirculation, fuel consumption and combustion process measurements were performed in an unmodified upto-date diesel engine. The experiments showed that the properties of the formulated biofuels are either similar to or even better than diesel. The hydrotropy of the glycerol derivatives in these mixtures enables the potential to implement water into biofuels, so-called hydrofuels, reducing nitrogen oxide emissions and leading to further optimised dropin fuels.

The performance of the TMDI is computed as a function of the floor to which the inerter is grounded as this parameter strongly influences the vibration reduction of the building and for the case when the inerter is grounded to the earth whereby the absolute acceleration of the corresponding inerter terminal is zero. Simulations are made for broadband and harmonic excitations of the first three bending modes, and the conventional TMD is used as a benchmark. It is found that the inerter performs best when grounded to the earth because, then, the inerter force is in proportion to the absolute acceleration of only the pendulum mass, but not to the relative acceleration of the two inerter terminals, which is demonstrated by the mass matrix. However, if the inerter is grounded to a floor below the pendulum mass, the TMDI only outperforms the TMD if the inerter is grounded to a floor within approximately the first third of the building’s height. For the most realistic case, where the inerter is grounded to a floor in the vicinity of the pendulum mass, the TMDI performs far worse than the classical TMD.

The approach starts by considering the building features as well as the reference heating system in terms of solar thermal collectors’ technology, ambient heat sinks/source, and space heating distribution systems employed. Furthermore, it is based on a deep climatic analysis of the place where the STES needs to be installed, to identify both winter and summer operating conditions. In particular, the STES energy density is evaluated considering different space heating demands covered by the STES (ranging from 10% up to 60%). The obtained results demonstrate that this approach allows for the careful estimation of the achievable STES density, which is varies significantly both with the space heating coverage guaranteed by the STES as well as with the ambient heat source/sink that is employed in the system. This confirms the need for careful preliminary analysis to avoid the overestimation of the STES material volume. The proposed approach was then applied for different climatic conditions (e.g., Germany and Sweden) and the volume of one of the most attractive composite sorbent materials reported in the literature, i.e., multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)-LiCl, using water as the working fluid, needed for covering the variable space heating demand in a Nearly Zero Energy Building (NZEB) was calculated. In the case of Swedish buildings, it ranges from about 3.5 m3 when 10% of the space heating demand is provided by the STES, up to 11.1 m3 when 30% of the space heating demand is provided by the STES.

It presents a developed standard protocol for the complete characterization of advanced coated adsorbers. Providing an in-depth analysis of the different procedures necessary for evaluating the performance of adsorbers, it also presents an analysis of their stability under the hydrothermal and mechanical stresses during their entire life cycle. Adsorptive Heat Transformers (AHT), especially adsorption chillers and heat pumps, are considered to be promising technologies to increase thermal energy efficiency. Nevertheless, an overall increase in performance of this apparatus is necessary for them to be considered a mature technology to be used commercially. Development of innovative coated adsorbers can be perceived as a key issue for the enhancement of AHT technology. This procedure relies on the deposition, either by means of a binder or by direct crystallization, of the adsorbent material over a metallic heat exchanger, aiming at the improvement of the heat transfer between the external heat source and the adsorbent itself. This book offers a valuable resource to those working on the development of novel adsorbent materials and advanced adsorbent beds for heating and cooling applications. It is also intended for researchers interested in renewable energy and energy efficiency.

However, the different physical and chemical properties of straight vegetable oils (SVOs) require a customized setup of the combustion engine, particularly of the injection timing and quantity. Therefore, this study demonstrates the differences in the injection and combustion processes of jatropha oil compared to diesel fuel, particularly in terms of its compatibility with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). A 2.2 l common-rail diesel engine with a two-stage turbocharging concept was used for testing. To examine the differences in injection rate shaping of diesel fuel and jatropha oil, the injector was tested with an injection rate analyzer using both the fuels. To investigate the combustion process, the engine was mounted at an engine test bench and equipped with a cylinder pressure indication system. All limited emissions, as well as fuel consumption, were measured. Various injection strategies, boost and rail pressure levels were tested at different EGR rates in terms of their impact on the combustion process. EGR in particular offers a great potential in the case of jatropha oil combustion due to its oxygen content. In addition, the investigation of injection rate shaping in combination with cylinder pressure analysis allowed a detailed thermodynamic evaluation of the combustion process. Ignition delay (ID) was also analyzed using a new method to calculate the start of combustion (SOC) Y1 - 2017 U6 - https://doi.org/10.4271/2017-01-5000 PB - SAE International ER - TY - CHAP A1 - Höcherl, Johannes A1 - Wrede, Britta A1 - Schlegl, Thomas ED - Wrede, Britta ED - Nagai, Yukie ED - Komatsu, Takanori ED - Hanheide, Marc ED - Natale, Lorenzo T1 - Motion Analysis of Human-Human and Human-Robot Cooperation During Industrial Assembly Tasks T2 - Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Human Agent Interaction (HAI '17), Bielefeld Germany, 17.10.2017 -20.10.2017 N2 - This article discusses the relevance of the motion behavior and adaptation of a collaborative robot for human-robot cooperation. Two experiments on cooperative assembly are shown. First, a human-human experiment with defined test conditions evaluates the aspects of distance, nearest body part, and predictability as significant. Second, a human-robot experiment shows that fixed trajectories and conservative dynamic parameters lead to a quick gain of confidence of the participants. Besides, the data shows that a realistic use case with complex tasks is key to evaluate the impact of motion parameters.

T1 - Basics for inline measurement of tribological conditions in series production of car body parts JF - IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering N2 - The quality of car body parts in series production is strongly dependent on the tribological behavior. Fluctuating material properties such as the sheet roughness and the amount of lubricant have an influence on the forming process. On the basis of large amounts of data it is possible to investigate the friction behavior in series production and to make process adjustments if required. Therefore, inline measurement systems have a great potential to detect the sheet roughness during the cutting process of blanks in the coil line. Furthermore, contactless systems are advantageous as they do not damage the surface. Nevertheless, the optical measuring is influenced by the lubricant layer on top of the surface. Therefore, the previously unknown impact of the lubricant on the measuring result is investigated. Within this study, stationary optical roughness measurements have been conducted using different amounts of lubricant on hot-dip galvanized EDT steel. The results demonstrate the influence of different amounts of lubricant on the sheet roughness measurement. Hence, it is possible to correct the inline measuring results and gain knowledge of fluctuating surface roughness. In addition, strip drawing test has been carried out to investigate the effect of fluctuating tribological conditions.

For this research, a 2.2L common-rail engine with a two-stage turbocharging concept was equipped with a cylinder pressure indication system, an exhaust-gas analyzer, an AVL Micro Soot sensor and a Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer 3936 (SMPS) device to detect the particle-size-distribution (PSD). At a low and mid-load engine-operating point (EOP), the thermodynamic and emissions were investigated under various exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rates with respect to the PSD. Moreover, the injection behavior of the three test fuels was analyzed separately using an injection rate analyzer. This procedure facilitates the thermodynamic investigations of the engine process and allows the calculation of the hydraulic delay (HD) as well as the ignition delay (ID). The ID of the SVO fuels compared to diesel fuel was found to be lower at all engine-operating modes, while jatropha oil always showed the shortest ID. In the particulate-nitrogen oxide (NOX) trade-off, the SVO fuels showed higher particulate matter (PM) emissions at the low-load EOP, whereas the PM emissions of diesel fuel overtop the SVO fuels at a higher engine load. With increased EGR-rates, a rise in the particle size was observed for all fuels. At the low-load EOP, the SVO fuels showed larger particles for high EGR-rates. This effect also changed by increasing the engine-load to the mid-load EOP, wherein the particle size of the diesel fuel emissions is higher by applying elevated EGR-rates.

In this study, the impact of shell design (conventional, finned, spiked, and combined design) and liner material on the biomechanical response of periprosthetic bone has been analyzed using finite element (FE) method. Two different liner materials: high density polyethylene-20% hydroxyapatite-20% alumina (HDPE-20%HA-20%Al2O3) and highly cross-linked ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (HC-UHMWPE) were used. The subject parameters included bone condition and bodyweight. Physiologically relevant load cases of a gait cycle were considered. The deviation of mechanical condition of the periprosthetic bone due to implantation was least for the finned shell design. No significant deviation was observed at the bone region adjacent to the spikes and the fins. This study recommends the use of the finned design, particularly for weaker bone conditions. For stronger bones, the combined design may also be recommended for higher stability. The use of HC-UHMWPE liner was found to be better for convensional shell design. However, similar biomechanical response was captured in our FE analysis for both the liner materials in case of other shell designs. Overall, the study establishes the biomechanical response of periprosthetic bone in the acetabular with preclinically tested liner materials together with new shell design for different subject conditions.

Despite the large number of operational launch vehicles, they usually consist of basic components and subsystems. In other words, a launch vehicle is an assembly of stages, which in turn is divided into propellant system and engine, and the engine is an assembly of basic components such as pumps, turbines, combustion chamber, and nozzle. To allow future extension and reuse of the codes, a modular structure using object-oriented programming is used. Two formulations of state equations of the trajectory and two optimization methods are described. The launch vehicle performance will be measured by payload mass for a given mission. The simulations of the VLS-1, Ariane 5 and VLS-Alfa were performed and showed good agreement with the literature.

The design process is highly creative, many design alternatives are explored, and both unexpected and planned feedback occurs frequently. Thus, it is inherently difficult to manage the workflow in design processes, i.e., to coordinate the effort of experts working on tasks such as creation of flow diagrams, steady-state and dynamic simulations, etc. Conventional project and workflow management systems support the management of design processes only to a limited extent. In contrast, the management system AHEAD is designed specifically for dynamic design processes. In addition, AHEAD supports the management of interorganizational design processes. A subprocess may be delegated to a contractor, which receives information only about those parts of the overall process that are relevant for the contract. The management systems of the client and the contractor are coupled at run time such that both systems maintain up-to-date state information. The contract may be changed at any time according to the rules of a pre-defined change protocol. To validate this approach to the management of dynamic and interorganizational design processes, the AHEAD system has been applied to a comprehensive case study, namely the conceptual design and basic engineering of a chemical plant for producing polyamide 6.

Mit einer vom LFW der OTH Regensburg entwickelten Software lassen sich die Konturen direkt auf den Rüstplatz projizieren. Im Rahmen des durch das Bayerische Staatsministerium für Bildung und Kultus, Wissenschaft und Kunst geförderte F&E-Projekt "AutoRüst" entwickelt das LFW Bausteine zum automatisierten Generieren von Rüstinformationen. Im Wesentlichen geht es dabei um zwei Schwerpunkte: erstens das datenbankgestützte Verwalten von Spannsituationen inklusive der Unterstützung und Überprüfung beim Aufbau sowie zweitens die bedarfsgerechte Visualisierung des Programmablaufs für die Einfahrprozedur an der Werkzeugmaschine. Bei beiden Themenkomplexen werden bereits vorhandene Daten (3D-Spannsituation, NC-Programm mit Maschinenraumsimulation) genutzt, um konfigurierbare Rüstdokumente zum Spannen und Einfahren zu erzeugen. Im Idealfall muss der NC-Programmierer also nur wenige bis gar keine zusätzlichen Eingaben tätigen. Neben der reinen Zeitersparnis wird so auch eine deutlich gesteigerte Prozesssicherheit beim Übertragen der virtuellen Welt in die reale Fertigungswelt erreicht. Das vom LFW entwickelte Modul zur Visualisierung der Spannsituation kann flexibel in den Fertigungsbetrieben integriert werden. Gerüstet werden kann sowohl in der Maschine, auf einer zweiten Palette als auch auf einem externen Rüstplatz. Einzige Randbedingung ist, dass der Laserprojektor auf den Tisch projizieren kann, idealerweise senkrecht von oben. Die Software analysiert in einem ersten Schritt die vorhandene 3D-Baugruppe und erzeugt anhand der Lage der Bauteile eine Montagereihenfolge, die natürlich angepasst werden kann. Ebenso können Einzelteile gruppiert werden, sodass diese bei der späteren Projektion auch als Gruppe projiziert werden. Unwichtige Baugruppenteile wie beispielsweise die Stützen der Spannpratzen oder die Muttern mit den Unterlegscheiben können vom weiteren Prozess ausgeschlossen werden. Auf der so geschaffenen Grundlage erzeugt die Software Projektionslinien auf dem zu positionierenden Bauteil mit einem einstellbaren Abstand (hier: 1 mm) zur Bauteilkante. Als Ergebnis wird eine Ausgabedatei im dxf-Format erstellt, die vom Laserprojektor verarbeitet werden kann. Die in der dxf-Datei auf Layern gruppierten Projektionslinien können dann ferngesteuert in der zuvor definierten Reihenfolge durchgeklickt werden, um die Spannelemente zu positionieren. Die Vorteile des Visualisierungsmoduls im Überblick: (1) Senken der Rüstzeit; (2) Erhöhen der Prozesssicherheit beim Rüsten (Positioniergenauigkeit der Spannelemente < 1 mm) und damit Kollisionsvermeidung; (3) Nutzen bereits vorhandener 3D-Informationen entlang der Prozesskette CAD/CAM-Fertigung; (4) Konturerzeugung direkt im CAM-System OPUS oder über unabhängige Software.
