  abstract  = {FEven though BIM (Building Information Modelling) is successfully implemented in most of the world, it is still in the early stages in Germany, since the stakeholders are sceptical of its reliability and efficiency. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the opportunities and obstacles to implementing BIM for prefabrication. Among all other advantages of BIM, prefabrication is chosen for this paper because it plays a vital role in creating an impact on the time and cost factors of a construction project. The project stakeholders and participants can explicitly observe the positive impact of prefabrication, which enables the breakthrough of the scepticism factor among the small-scale construction companies. The analysis consists of the development of a process workflow for implementing prefabrication in building construction followed by a practical approach, which was executed with two case studies. It was planned in such a way that, the first case study gives a first-hand experience for the workers at the site on the BIM model so that they can make much use of the created BIM model, which is a better representation compared to the traditional 2D plan. The main aim of the first case study is to create a belief in the implementation of BIM Models, which was succeeded by the execution of offshore prefabrication in the second case study. Based on the case studies, the time analysis was made and it is inferred that the implementation of BIM for prefabrication can reduce construction time, ensures minimal wastes, better accuracy, less problem-solving at the construction site. It was observed that this process requires more planning time, better communication between different disciplines, which was the major obstacle for successful implementation. This paper was carried out from the perspective of small and medium-sized mechanical contracting companies for the private building sector in Germany.},

  abstract  = {We present first results from a newly developed monitoring station for a closed loop geothermal heat pump test installation at our campus, consisting of helix coils and plate heat exchangers, as well as an ice-store system. There are more than 40 temperature sensors and several soil moisture content sensors distributed around the system, allowing a detailed monitoring under different operating conditions.In the view of the modern development of renewable energies along with the newly concepts known as Internet of Things and Industry 4.0 (high-tech strategy from the German government), we created a user-friendly web application, which will connect the things (sensors) with the open network (www). Besides other advantages, this allows a continuous remote monitoring of the data from the numerous sensors at an arbitrary sampling rate.Based on the recorded data, we will also present first results from numerical simulations, taking into account all relevant heat transport processes.The aim is to improve the understanding of these processes and their influence on the thermal behavior of shallow geothermal systems in the unsaturated zone. This will in turn facilitate the prediction of the performance of these systems and therefore yield an improvement in their dimensioning when designing a specific shallow geothermal installation.},

Aachener Softwaretag in der Wasserwirtschaft <2, 2009, Aachen> Zusammenfassung [der Autoren] F{\"u}r das st{\"a}dtisch gepr{\"a}gte Einzugsgebiet des Broicher Baches sind ein vereinfachter und ein detaillierter Nachweis nach BWK-M3 durchgef{\"u}hrt worden. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Methodik des vereinfachten Nachweises nicht geeignet ist, um eine realit{\"a}tsnahe Abbildung der einleitungsgepr{\"a}gten Abfl{\"u}sse des Gew{\"a}ssers zu erhalten. Dies ist insbesondere auf die Vernachl{\"a}ssigung von Wellentranslation und -retention im Gerinne zur{\"u}ckzuf{\"u}hren. Die dadurch entstehende Fehleinsch{\"a}tzung der Abflussverh{\"a}ltnisse versperrt den Blick auf eine situationsgerechte Maßnahmenplanung. Der mit Hilfe eines NA-Modells gef{\"u}hrte detaillierte Nachweis ist zwar in der Erstellung aufw{\"a}ndiger, zeichnet aber ein reales Bild der Abflusserh{\"o}hung durch Einleitungen. Mit Hilfe des Modells k{\"o}nnen die wesentlichen Einfl{\"u}sse schnell lokalisiert und zielf{\"u}hrende Maßnahmenvarianten identifiziert werden. In dem hier vorgestellten Beispiel des Broicher Baches k{\"o}nnen die urspr{\"u}nglich identifizierten acht Maßnahmen auf eine reduziert werden. Das Gesamtvolumen der erforderlichen R{\"u}ckhaltungen wird um die H{\"a}lfte verringert. Der Vergleich beider Nachweismethoden legt nach Ansicht der Autoren nahe, den vereinfachten Nachweis h{\"o}chstens f{\"u}r eine erste Einsch{\"a}tzung des Maßnahmenbedarfs anzuwenden. Die Maßnahmenidentifikation und -dimensionierung sollte grunds{\"a}tzlich mit der detaillierten Nachweismethode durchgef{\"u}hrt werden, die auf einem entsprechenden NA-Modell basiert. Dies gilt insbesondere f{\"u}r Gew{\"a}sserstrecken, deren Abfluss durch mehrere, hintereinander liegende Einleitungsstellen gepr{\"a}gt ist.},

  abstract  = {Urban farming is an innovative and sustainable way of food production and is becoming more and more important in smart city and quarter concepts. It also enables the production of certain foods in places where they usually dare not produced, such as production of fish or shrimps in large cities far away from the coast. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to show students such concepts and systems in real life as part of courses: visits of such industry plants are sometimes not possible because of distance or are permitted by the operator for hygienic reasons. In order to give the students the opportunity of getting into contact with such an urban farming system and its complex operation, an industrial urban farming plant was set up on a significantly smaller scale. Therefore, all needed technical components like water aeriation, biological and mechanical filtration or water circulation have been replaced either by aquarium components or by self-designed parts also using a 3D-printer. Students from different courses like mechanical engineering, smart building engineering, biology, electrical engineering, automation technology and civil engineering were involved in this project. This "miniature industrial plant" was also able to start operation and has now been running for two years successfully. Due to Corona pandemic, home office and remote online lectures, the automation of this miniature plant should be brought to a higher level in future for providing a good control over the system and water quality remotely. The aim of giving the student a chance to get to know the operation of an urban farming plant was very well achieved and the students had lots of fun in "playing" and learning with it in a realistic way.},

Aachener Softwaretag in der Wasserwirtschaft <1,2007, Aachen> Einleitung [des Autors] Die hydrodynamische Kanalnetzmodellierung ist ein Standardwerkzeug f{\"u}r die Bemessung von Kanalnetzen. Neben der Berechnung der hydrologischen und hydraulischen Gegebenheiten in einem st{\"a}dtischen Einzugsgebiet geh{\"o}ren auch weiterf{\"u}hrende Technologien mittlerweile zum Standard. So k{\"o}nnen alle steuerbaren Elemente eines Kanalnetzes dynamisch so optimiert werden, dass die Leistungsf{\"a}higkeit des Kanalnetzes zus{\"a}tzlich gesteigert werden kann. Automatische Werkzeuge zur dynamischen hydraulischen Schmutzfrachtberechnung erm{\"o}glichen die Erweiterung der Steuerung - insbesondere von Entlastungsanlagen - im Hinblick auf die entlasteten Schmutzfrachten und geben dar{\"u}ber hinaus detaillierte Informationen f{\"u}r den Betrieb der Kl{\"a}ranlage. Weiterf{\"u}hrende biologische Prozessmodellierungen erg{\"a}nzen dieses Themenfeld. GIS Werkzeuge k{\"o}nnen bei der r{\"a}umlich differenzierten Modellierung von Kanalnetzen wertvolle Dienste leisten. Die detaillierte Betrachtung einzelner Haltungsfl{\"a}chen in ihrem r{\"a}umlichen Zusammenhang ist damit ebenso m{\"o}glich wie eine komplette Verwaltung aller f{\"u}r die Kanalnetzmodellierung notwendigen Daten in einem {\"u}bersichtlichen grafischen Men{\"u}. Die Grenzen der Kanalnetzmodellierung lagen in fr{\"u}heren Zeiten an dessen Rand. Detaillierte Informationen {\"u}ber die Wege des Wassers auf der Gel{\"a}ndeoberfl{\"a}che, an der Schnittstelle zu Vorflutern und in der Interaktion mit Grundwasser waren bisher nicht modelltechnisch bewertbar. Eine dynamische Kopplung verschiedener Modelle zur Darstellung aller relevanten hydraulischen Prozesse erm{\"o}glicht eine integrative Betrachtung aller m{\"o}glichen Wege, die das Wasser in der Stadt nehmen kann (Mark \& Djordjevic, 2006). Dieser Beitrag pr{\"a}sentiert den Stand der Technik f{\"u}r die integrierte Modellierung st{\"a}dtischer {\"U}berschwemmungen mit Hilfe der Modellkopplung von Oberfl{\"a}chenmodellen und Kanalnetzmodellen.},
