The method is based on the conversion of a photolithographically patterned metal layer to a metal-oxide mask with improved pattern-size resolution using thermal oxidation. With this technique, the pattern size can be scaled down to several nanometer dimensions. The proposed method is experimentally demonstrated by preparing nanostructures with different configurations and layouts, like circles, rectangles, trapezoids, "fluidic-channel"-, "cantilever"- and meander-type structures.}, subject = {Biosensor}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DielmannPeters2002, author = {Dielmann, Klaus-Peter and Peters, Bernhard}, title = {Micro Turbine Using Different Gases and Liquid Fuels}, year = {2002}, abstract = {Micro turbine using different gases and liquid fuels}, subject = {Gasturbine}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchreiberKraftZuendorf2017, author = {Schreiber, Marc and Kraft, Bodo and Z{\"u}ndorf, Albert}, title = {Metrics Driven Research Collaboration: Focusing on Common Project Goals Continuously}, series = {39th International Conference on Software Engineering, May 20-28, 2017 - Buenos Aires, Argentina}, booktitle = {39th International Conference on Software Engineering, May 20-28, 2017 - Buenos Aires, Argentina}, pages = {8 Seiten}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Research collaborations provide opportunities for both practitioners and researchers: practitioners need solutions for difficult business challenges and researchers are looking for hard problems to solve and publish. Nevertheless, research collaborations carry the risk that practitioners focus on quick solutions too much and that researchers tackle theoretical problems, resulting in products which do not fulfill the project requirements. In this paper we introduce an approach extending the ideas of agile and lean software development. It helps practitioners and researchers keep track of their common research collaboration goal: a scientifically enriched software product which fulfills the needs of the practitioner's business model. This approach gives first-class status to application-oriented metrics that measure progress and success of a research collaboration continuously. Those metrics are derived from the collaboration requirements and help to focus on a commonly defined goal. An appropriate tool set evaluates and visualizes those metrics with minimal effort, and all participants will be pushed to focus on their tasks with appropriate effort. Thus project status, challenges and progress are transparent to all research collaboration members at any time.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BuehlerLeandroBungetal.2015, author = {B{\"u}hler, P. and Leandro, J. and Bung, Daniel Bernhard and Lopes, P. and Carvalho, R.}, title = {Measuring void fraction of a stepped spillway with non-intrusive methods using different image resolutions}, series = {2nd International Workshop on Hydraulic Structures : Data Validation : Coimbra, Portugal, 8-9 May 2015}, booktitle = {2nd International Workshop on Hydraulic Structures : Data Validation : Coimbra, Portugal, 8-9 May 2015}, organization = {International Workshop on Hydraulic Structures : Data Validation <2, 2015, Coimbra>}, pages = {1 -- 8}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BaronasIvanauskasKulys2006, author = {Baronas, Romas and Ivanauskas, Feliksas and Kulys, Juozas}, title = {Mathematical modeling of biosensors based on an array of enzyme microreactors}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1569}, year = {2006}, abstract = {This paper presents a two-dimensional-in-space mathematical model of biosensors based on an array of enzyme microreactors immobilised on a single electrode.

June 17 - 20, 2008 ; Saint Petersburg, Russia. pp 354-358. Reprint with corrections in red Introduction Analysis of advanced structures working under extreme heavy loading such as nuclear power plants and piping system should take into account the randomness of loading, geometrical and material parameters. The existing reliability are restricted mostly to the elastic working regime, e.g. allowable local stresses. Development of the limit and shakedown reliability-based analysis and design methods, exploiting potential of the shakedown working regime, is highly needed. In this paper the application of a new algorithm of probabilistic limit and shakedown analysis for shell structures is presented, in which the loading and strength of the material as well as the thickness of the shell are considered as random variables. The reliability analysis problems may be efficiently solved by using a system combining the available FE codes, a deterministic limit and shakedown analysis, and the First and Second Order Reliability Methods (FORM/SORM). Non-linear sensitivity analyses are obtained directly from the solution of the deterministic problem without extra computational costs.}, subject = {Finite-Elemente-Methode}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StaatHeitzer1997, author = {Staat, Manfred and Heitzer, Michael}, title = {Limit and shakedown analysis for plastic design}, year = {1997}, abstract = {Limit and shakedown theorems are exact theories of classical plasticity for the direct computation of safety factors or of the load carrying capacity under constant and varying loads.

Using Finite Element Methods more realistic modeling can be used for a more rational design. The methods can be extended to yield optimum plastic design. In this paper we present a first implementation in FE of limit and shakedown analyses for perfectly plastic material. Limit and shakedown analyses are done of a pipe-junction and a interaction diagram is calculated. The results are in good correspondence with the analytic solution we give in the appendix.}, subject = {Einspielen }, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KernKrichelMueller2001, author = {Kern, Alexander and Krichel, Frank and M{\"u}ller, Klaus-Peter}, title = {Lightning protection design of a renewable energy hybrid-system without power mains connection}, year = {2001}, abstract = {In the year 2000 a direct lightning strike to the hybridsystem without power mains connection VATALI on the Greek island Crete results in the destruction and damage of some mechanical and electrical components. The hybrid-system VATALI was not lightning protected at that time. The hardware damage costs are approx. 60,000 €. The exposed site of the hybrid-system on top of a mountain was and still is the reason for a high risk of lightning strikes. Also in the future further lightning strikes have to be taken into consideration. In the paper a fundamental lightning protection design concept for renewable energy hybrid-systems without power mains connection and protection measures against direct strikes and overvoltages are shown in detail. The design concept was realized exemplarily for the hybrid-system VATALI. The hardware costs for the protection measures were about 15,000 €. About 50\% of the costs are due to protection measures against direct strikes, 50\% are due to overvoltage protection.

One of the main topics was laminar wing development. Besides aerodynamic design work, many operational aspects were investigated. A manufacturing concept was developed to be applied to operational laminar wings and empennages. It was built in a large scale manufacturing demonstrator with the aerodynamic shape of a 1,5 m section of the A320 fin nose. Tolerances in shape and roughness fulfilled all requirements. The construction can easily be adapted to varying stiffness and strength requirements. Weight and manufacturing costs are comparable to common nose designs. The mock-up to be designed in ALTTA is based on this manufacturing principle. Another critical point is contamination of suction surfaces. Several tests were performed to investigate perforated titanium suction surfaces at realistic operational conditions: - a one year flight test with a suction plate in the stagnation area of the Airbus "Beluga" - a one year test of several suction plates in a ground test near the airport - a one year test of a working suction ground test installation at all weather conditions. No critical results were found. There is no long term suction degradation visible. Icing conditions and ground de-icing fluids used on airports did not pose severe problems.

The objective of this study was to experimentally determine the additional shielding effectiveness of a second reinforcement layer compared to a single-layer grid. To this end, simulated structures were set up in the high current laboratory. The structures consisted of cubic cages of 2 m side length with one or with two reinforcement grids, respectively. The structures were exposed to direct lightning currents representing the variety of anticipated lightning current waveforms. The magnetic fields and their derivatives at several positions inside the structure as well as the voltage between "floor" and "roof" in the center were determined for different current injection points.
