The membrane-coating mixture used in the preparation of this new type of microsensors is incorporating PVC as supporting matrix, o-nitrophenyloctylether (o-NPOE) as solvent mediator and a recently synthesized Hg[dimethylglyoxime(phene)]2+ and Bis-(4-hydroxyacetophenone)-ethylenediamine as electroactive materials for Hg(II) and Cd(II), respectively. A set of three commercialised ionophores for Cd(II), Pb(II) and Cu(II) has been also used for comparison. Thin-film microsensors based on these membranes showed a Nernstian response of slope (26-30 mV/dec.) for the respective tested cations. The potentiometric response characteristics (linear range, pH range, detection limit and response time) are comparable with those obtained by conventional membranes as well as coated wire electrodes prepared from the same membrane.

It concerns thereby about a modular software package for the acquisition of data of different sensors. A signal evaluation algorithm referred to as matrix method was used specifically for the software tool. This matrix method computes the gas concentrations from the signals of a sensor array. The software tool was used for the simulation of an array of five sensors to determine gas concentration of CH4, NH3, H2, CO and C2H5OH. The results of the present simulated sensor array indicate that the software tool is capable of the following: (a) identify a gas independently of its concentration; (b) estimate the concentration of the gas, even if the system was not previously exposed to this concentration; (c) tell when a gas concentration exceeds a certain value. A gas sensor data base was build for the configuration of the software. With the data base one can create, generate and manage scenarios and source files for the simulation.

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).

Instead of Ecoflex, fibroin, PLA, and wound adhesive are tested as alternative encapsulation compounds: a series of swelling tests with different fibroin compositions, PLA, and Ecoflex has been performed before characterizing the most promising candidates by chronoamperometry. Therefore, the carbon electrodes are completely covered with the particular encapsulation material. Chronoamperometric measurements with H2O2 concentrations between 0.5 and 10 mM enable studying the leakage current behavior.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DigelLeimenaDachwaldetal.2010, author = {Digel, Ilya and Leimena, W. and Dachwald, Bernd and Linder, Peter and Porst, Dariusz and Kayser, Peter and Funke, O. and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l and Artmann, Gerhard}, title = {In-situ biological decontamination of an ice melting probe : [abstract]}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The objective of our study was to investigate the efficacy of different in-situ decontamination protocols in the conditions of thermo-mechanical ice-melting.}, subject = {Sonde}, language = {en} } @article{BaroudWuBohneretal.2003, author = {Baroud, G. and Wu, J.Z. and Bohner, M and Sponagel, Stefan and Steffen, T.}, title = {How to determine the permeability for cement infiltration into osteoporotic cancellous bone}, series = {Medical Engineering \& Physics. 25 (2003), H. 4}, journal = {Medical Engineering \& Physics. 25 (2003), H. 4}, issn = {1350-4533}, pages = {283 -- 288}, year = {2003}, abstract = {Cement augmentation is an emerging surgical procedure in which bone cement is used to infiltrate and reinforce osteoporotic vertebrae. Although this infiltration procedure has been widely applied, it is performed empirically and little is known about the flow characteristics of cement during the injection process. We present a theoretical and experimental approach to investigate the intertrabecular bone permeability during the infiltration procedure. The cement permeability was considered to be dependent on time, bone porosity, and cement viscosity in our analysis. In order to determine the time-dependent permeability, ten cancellous bone cores were harvested from osteoporotic vertebrae, infiltrated with acrylic cement at a constant flow rate, and the pressure drop across the cores during the infiltration was measured. The viscosity dependence of the permeability was determined based on published experimental data. The theoretical model for the permeability as a function of bone porosity and time was then fit to the testing data. Our findings suggest that the intertrabecular bone permeability depends strongly on time. For instance, the initial permeability (60.89 mm4/N.s) reduced to approximately 63\% of its original value within 18 seconds. This study is the first to analyze cement flow through osteoporotic bone. The theoretical and experimental models provided in this paper are generic. Thus, they can be used to systematically study and optimize the infiltration process for clinical practice.}, subject = {Osteoporose}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FrotscherStaat2015, author = {Frotscher, Ralf and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Homogenization of a cardiac tissue construct}, series = {CMBE15 : 4th International Conference on Computational \& Mathematical Biomedical Engineering ; 29th June - 1st July 2015 ; {\´E}cole Normale Sup{\´e}rieure de Cachan ; Cachan (Paris), France}, booktitle = {CMBE15 : 4th International Conference on Computational \& Mathematical Biomedical Engineering ; 29th June - 1st July 2015 ; {\´E}cole Normale Sup{\´e}rieure de Cachan ; Cachan (Paris), France}, editor = {Nithiarasu, Perumal}, publisher = {CMBE}, address = {[s.l.]}, issn = {2227-9385}, pages = {645 -- 648}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SpannhakeSchulzHelwigetal.2006, author = {Spannhake, Jan and Schulz, Olaf and Helwig, Andreas and Krenkow, Angelika and M{\"u}ller, Gerhard and Doll, Theodor}, title = {High-temperature MEMS heater platforms: long-term performance of metal and semiconductor heater materials}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1513}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Micromachined thermal heater platforms offer low electrical power consumption and high modulation speed, i.e. properties which are advantageous for realizing nondispersive infrared (NDIR) gas- and liquid monitoring systems.

Dieser abstrahiert von konstruktiven Elementen wie Linie, Wand oder Decke, um auf die Konzepte, d.h. die eigentlichen Funktionen, heraus zu arbeiten. Diese abstraktere, funktionale Sichtweise auf ein Geb{\"a}ude ist w{\"a}hrend der fr{\"u}hen Entwurfsphase essentiell, um Struktur und Organisation des gesamten Geb{\"a}udes zu erfassen. Bereits in dieser Phase muss Fachwissen (z. B. rechtliche, {\"o}konomische und technische Bestimmungen) ber{\"u}cksichtigt werden. Im Rahmen des vorliegenden Projekts werden Software-Werkzeuge integriert in industrielle CAD-Systeme entwickelt, die den konzeptuellen Geb{\"a}ude-Entwurf erm{\"o}glichen und diesen gegen Fachwissen pr{\"u}fen. Das Projekt ist in zwei Teile gegliedert. Im Top-Down-Ansatz werden Datenstrukturen und Methoden zur Strukturierung, Repr{\"a}sentation und Evaluation von geb{\"a}udespezifischem Fachwissen erarbeitet. Dieser Teil baut auf den graphbasierten Werkzeugen PROGRES und UPGRADE des Lehrstuhls auf. Der Bottom-Up-Ansatz ist industriell orientiert und hat zum Ziel, das kommerzielle CAD-System ArchiCAD zu erweitern. Hierbei soll der fr{\"u}he, konzeptuelle Geb{\"a}ude-Entwurf in einem CAD-System erm{\"o}glicht werden. Der Entwurf kann dar{\"u}ber hinaus gegen das definierte Fachwissen gepr{\"u}ft werden. Im Rahmen des graphbasierten Top-Down-Ansatzes wurde zun{\"a}chst eine neue Spezifikationsmethode f{\"u}r die Sprache PROGRES entwickelt. Das PROGRES-System erlaubt die Spezifikation von Werkzeugen in deklarativer Form. {\"U}blicherweise wird dom{\"a}nenspezifisches Fachwissen in der PROGRES-Spezifikation codiert, das daraus generierte visuelle Werkzeug stellt dann die entsprechende Funktionalit{\"a}t zur Verf{\"u}gung. Mit dieser Methode sind am Lehrstuhl f{\"u}r Informatik III Werkzeuge f{\"u}r verschie-dene Anwendungsdom{\"a}nen entstanden. In unserem Fall versetzen wir einen Dom{\"a}nen-Experten, z. B. einen erfahrenen Architekten, in die Lage, Fachwissen zur Laufzeit einzugeben, dieses zu evaluieren, abzu{\"a}ndern oder zu erg{\"a}nzen. Im Rahmen der bisherigen Arbeit wurde dazu eine parametrisierte PROGRES-Spezifikation und zwei darauf aufbauende Werkzeuge entwickelt, welche die dynamische Eingabe von geb{\"a}ude-technisch relevantem Fachwissen erlauben und einen graphbasierten, konzeptuellen Geb{\"a}ude-Entwurf erm{\"o}glichen. In diesem konzeptuellen Geb{\"a}ude-Entwurf wird von Raumgr{\"o}ßen und Positionen abstrahiert, um die funktionale Struktur eines Geb{\"a}udes zu beschreiben. Das Fachwissen kann von einem Architekten visuell definiert werden. Es k{\"o}nnen semantische Einheiten, im einfachsten Fall R{\"a}ume, nach verschiedenen Kriterien kategorisiert und klassifiziert werden. Mit Hilfe von Attributen und Relationen k{\"o}nnen die semantischen Einheiten pr{\"a}ziser beschrieben und in Beziehung zueinander gesetzt werden. Die in PROGRES spezifizierten Konsistenz-Analysen erlauben die Pr{\"u}fung eines graphbasierten konzeptuellen Geb{\"a}ude-Entwurfs gegen das dynamisch eingef{\"u}gte Fachwissen. Im zweiten Teil des Forschungsprojekts, dem Bottom-Up-Ansatz, wird das CAD-System ArchiCAD erweitert, um den integrierten konzeptuellen Geb{\"a}ude-Entwurf zu erm{\"o}glichen. Der Architekt erh{\"a}lt dazu neue Entwurfselemente, die Raumobjekte, welche die relevanten semantischen Einheiten w{\"a}hrend der fr{\"u}hen Entwurfsphase repr{\"a}sentieren. Mit Hilfe der Raumobjekte kann der Architekt in ArchiCAD den Grundriss und das Raumprogramm eines Geb{\"a}udes entwerfen, ohne von konstruktiven Details in seiner Kreativit{\"a}t eingeschr{\"a}nkt zu werden. Die Arbeitsweise mit Raumobjekten entspricht dem informellen konzeptuellen Entwurf auf einer Papierskizze und ist daher f{\"u}r den Architekten intuitiv und einfach zu verwenden.

Activities on the Lunar surface (0.16 g) will allow crewmembers to advance the exploration skills needed when expanding human presence to Mars (0.38 g). Whilst data from actual hypogravity activities are limited to the Apollo missions, simulation studies have indicated that ground reaction forces, mechanical work, muscle activation, and joint angles decrease with declining gravity level. However, these alterations in locomotion biomechanics do not necessarily scale to the gravity level, the reduction in gastrocnemius medialis activation even appears to level off around 0.2 g, while muscle activation pattern remains similar. Thus, it is difficult to predict whether gastrocnemius medialis contractile behavior during running on Moon will basically be the same as on Mars. Therefore, this study investigated lower limb joint kinematics and gastrocnemius medialis behavior during running at 1 g, simulated Martian gravity, and simulated Lunar gravity on the vertical treadmill facility. The results indicate that hypogravity-induced alterations in joint kinematics and contractile behavior still persist between simulated running on the Moon and Mars. This contrasts with the concept of a ceiling effect and should be carefully considered when evaluating exercise prescriptions and the transferability of locomotion practiced in Lunar gravity to Martian gravity.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WagnerKohlFroebaetal.2006, author = {Wagner, Thorsten and Kohl, Claus-Dieter and Fr{\"o}ba, Michael and Tiemann, Michael}, title = {Gas sensing properties of ordered mesoporous SnO2}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1422}, year = {2006}, abstract = {We report on the synthesis and CO gas-sensing properties of mesoporous tin(IV) oxides (SnO2).

This efficacy increased with the time the bacteries were exposed to PCIs. The bactericidal action has proved to be irreversible. PCIs were significantly less effective in shadowed areas.

Light addressability can be used to visualize the concentration and spatial distribution of the target molecules, e.g., H+ ions. This unique feature has great potential for the label-free imaging of the metabolic activity of living organisms. The cultivation of those organisms needs specially tailored surface properties of the sensor. O2 plasma treatment is an attractive and promising tool for rapid surface engineering. However, the potential impacts of the technique are carefully investigated for the sensors that suffer from plasma-induced damage. Herein, a LAPS with a Ta2O5 pH-sensitive surface is successfully patterned by plasma treatment, and its effects are investigated by contact angle and scanning LAPS measurements. The plasma duration of 30 s (30 W) is found to be the threshold value, where excessive wettability begins. Furthermore, this treatment approach causes moderate plasma-induced damage, which can be reduced by thermal annealing (10 min at 300 °C). These findings provide a useful guideline to support future studies, where the LAPS surface is desired to be more hydrophilic by O2 plasma treatment.}, language = {en} }
