The potential of social media platforms is also being used for marketing purposes and for selling products. While for Facebook and other online social media platforms the purchase decision factors are investigated several times, Instagram stores remain mainly unattended so far. The present research work closes this gap and sheds light into decisive factors for purchasing products offered in Instagram stores. A theoretical research model, which contains selected constructs that are assumed to have a significant influence on Instagram user´s purchase intention, is developed. The hypotheses are evaluated by applying structural equation modelling on survey data containing 127 relevant participants. The results of the study reveal that 'trust', 'personal recommendation', and 'usability' significantly influences user's buying intention in Instagram stores.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AmirBauckhageChircuetal.2022, author = {Amir, Malik and Bauckhage, Christian and Chircu, Alina and Czarnecki, Christian and Knopf, Christian and Piatkowski, Nico and Sultanow, Eldar}, title = {What can we expect from quantum (digital) twins?}, publisher = {AIS Electronic Library (AISeL)}, pages = {1 -- 14}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Digital twins enable the modeling and simulation of real-world entities (objects, processes or systems), resulting in improvements in the associated value chains.

The knowledge is specific to one class of buildings and can be reused. Based on a dynamic knowledge model, different types of design rules formalize the knowledge in a graph-based realization. An expressive visual language provides a user-friendly, human readable representation. Finally, consistency analyses enable conceptual designs to be checked against this defined knowledge.

Images of Enceladus' South Pole showed several fissures in the ice shell with plumes constantly exhausting frozen water particles, building up the E-Ring, one of the outer rings of Saturn. In this southern region of Enceladus, the ice shell is considered to be as thin as 2 km, about an order of magnitude thinner than on the rest of the moon. Under the ice shell, there is a global ocean consisting of liquid water. Scientists are discussing different approaches the possibilities of taking samples of water, i.e. by melting through the ice using a melting probe. FH Aachen UAS developed a prototype of maneuverable melting probe which can navigate through the ice that has already been tested successfully in a terrestrial environment. This means no atmosphere and or ambient pressure, low ice temperatures of around 100 to 150K (near the South Pole) and a very low gravity of 0,114 m/s^2 or 1100 μg. Two of these influencing measures are about to be investigated at FH Aachen UAS in 2017, low ice temperature and low ambient pressure below the triple point of water. Low gravity cannot be easily simulated inside a large experiment chamber, though. Numerical simulations of the melting process at RWTH Aachen however are showing a gravity dependence of melting behavior. Considering this aspect, VIPER provides a link between large-scale experimental simulations at FH Aachen UAS and numerical simulations at RWTH Aachen. To analyze the melting process, about 90 seconds of experiment time in reduced gravity and low ambient pressure is provided by the REXUS rocket. In this time frame, the melting speed and contact force between ice and probes are measured, as well as heating power and a two-dimensional array of ice temperatures.

With the involvement of interstitial fluid (ISF) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), two pathways for the clearance of fluid and solutes in the brain are proposed. Starting at the level of capillaries, flow of ISF follows along the basement membranes in the walls of cerebral arteries out of the parenchyma to drain into the lymphatics and CSF [1]-[3]. Conversely, it is shown that CSF enters the parenchyma between glial and pial basement membranes of penetrating arteries [4]-[6]. Nevertheless, the involved structures and the contribution of either flow pathway to fluid balance between the subarachnoid space and interstitial space remains controversial. Low frequency oscillations in vascular tone are referred to as vasomotion and corresponding vasomotion waves are modeled as the driving force for flow of ISF out of the parenchyma [7]. Retinal vessel analysis (RVA) allows non-invasive measurement of retinal vessel vasomotion with respect to diameter changes [8]. Thus, the aim of the study is to investigate vasomotion in RVA signals of SAH and PHH patients.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MuellerSchmittLeiseetal.2021, author = {M{\"u}ller, Tim M. and Schmitt, Andreas and Leise, Philipp and Meck, Tobias and Altherr, Lena and Pelz, Peter F. and Pfetsch, Marc E.}, title = {Validation of an optimized resilient water supply system}, series = {Uncertainty in Mechanical Engineering}, booktitle = {Uncertainty in Mechanical Engineering}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-030-77255-0}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-77256-7_7}, pages = {70 -- 80}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Component failures within water supply systems can lead to significant performance losses. One way to address these losses is the explicit anticipation of failures within the design process. We consider a water supply system for high-rise buildings, where pump failures are the most likely failure scenarios. We explicitly consider these failures within an early design stage which leads to a more resilient system, i.e., a system which is able to operate under a predefined number of arbitrary pump failures. We use a mathematical optimization approach to compute such a resilient design. This is based on a multi-stage model for topology optimization, which can be described by a system of nonlinear inequalities and integrality constraints. Such a model has to be both computationally tractable and to represent the real-world system accurately. We therefore validate the algorithmic solutions using experiments on a scaled test rig for high-rise buildings. The test rig allows for an arbitrary connection of pumps to reproduce scaled versions of booster station designs for high-rise buildings. We experimentally verify the applicability of the presented optimization model and that the proposed resilience properties are also fulfilled in real systems.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AzarDigel2019, author = {Azar, Fouad and Digel, Ilya}, title = {Utilization of fluorescence spectroscopy and neural networks in clinical analysis}, series = {3rd YRA MedTech Symposium 2019 : May 24 / 2019 / FH Aachen}, booktitle = {3rd YRA MedTech Symposium 2019 : May 24 / 2019 / FH Aachen}, editor = {Staat, Manfred and Erni, Daniel}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Duisburg-Essen}, address = {Duisburg}, organization = {MedTech Symposium}, isbn = {978-3-940402-22-6}, doi = {10.17185/duepublico/48750}, pages = {40 -- 41}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Fluorescence topography of human urine in combination with learning algorithms can provide a variant pattern recognition method in analytical clinical chemistry and, eventually, diagnosis.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FunkeEschRoosen2009, author = {Funke, Harald and Esch, Thomas and Roosen, Peter}, title = {Using motor gasoline for aircrafts - coping with growing bio-fuel-caused risks by understanding cause-effect relationship}, series = {Fuels 2009 : mineral oil based and alternative fuels ; 7th international colloquium ; January 14 - 15, 2009}, booktitle = {Fuels 2009 : mineral oil based and alternative fuels ; 7th international colloquium ; January 14 - 15, 2009}, editor = {Bartz, Wilfried J.}, publisher = {Technische Akademie Esslingen (TAE)}, address = {Ostfildern}, isbn = {978-3-924813-75-8}, pages = {237 -- 244}, year = {2009}, abstract = {The utilisation of vehicle-oriented gasoline in general aviation is very desirable for both ecological and economical reasons, as well as for general considerations of availability.

Developers often require information from several areas of the companies to offer meaningful gamification strategies for their employees. Moreover, work environments and the associated support systems are usually not flexible enough to adapt to personal needs.

Large asymmetrically coherent flow structures, which fluctuate at frequencies below 2 Hz, are observed in the results of highspeed PIV measurements, whereas conventional PIV is unable to capture these features of the flow owing to aliasing. This flow pattern with a laterally swaying motion is represented by opposite signs of cross-correlation coefficients of streamwise velocity fluctuations for the two sides of the car model. Effects of two aerodynamic devices that are known to reduce the fluctuation levels of the aerodynamic loads are then extensively investigated. The correlation analyses reveal that these devices indeed reduce the fluctuation levels of the flow and the correlation values around the rear combination-lamp, but it is found that the effects of these devices are different around the c-pillar.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Eggert2019, author = {Eggert, Mathias}, title = {Understanding the acceptance of smart home-based insurances}, series = {Proceedings of the 27th European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS), Stockholm \& Uppsala, Sweden, June 8-14, 2019}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 27th European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS), Stockholm \& Uppsala, Sweden, June 8-14, 2019}, isbn = {978-1-7336325-0-8}, pages = {1 -- 15}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FellinKingKirschetal.2009, author = {Fellin, Wolfgang and King, Julian and Kirsch, Ansgar and Oberguggenberger, Michael}, title = {Uncertainty modelling and sensitivity analysis of tunnel face stability}, series = {Safety, reliability and risk of structures, infrastructures and engineering systems : proceedings of the tenth International Conference on Structural Safety and Reliability (ICOSSAR 2009), Osaka, Japan, 13-17 September 2009 / ed.: Hitoshi Furuta ...}, booktitle = {Safety, reliability and risk of structures, infrastructures and engineering systems : proceedings of the tenth International Conference on Structural Safety and Reliability (ICOSSAR 2009), Osaka, Japan, 13-17 September 2009 / ed.: Hitoshi Furuta ...}, publisher = {CRC Pr.}, address = {Boca Raton, Fla.

Therefore, we identify required extensions to standard UML. Class diagrams are used for elaborating building typespecific knowledge: Object diagrams, implicitly contained in the architect's sketch, are validated against the defined knowledge. To enable the use of industrial, domain-specific tools, we provide an integrated conceptual design extension. The developed tool support is based on graph rewriting.

In this method review we will give an overview of recent studies which were carried out with the CellDrum technology [2] and underline the added value to already existing standard procedures known from the field of physiology. Herein described CellDrum technology is a system to measure functional mechanical properties of cell monolayers and thin tissue constructs in-vitro. Additionally, the CellDrum enables to elucidate the mechanical response of cells to pharmacological drugs, toxins and vasoactive agents.

Solutions must therefore not only be sustainable in the sense of the three pillars of sustainability (economic, environmental, and social) but must also function globally. This goes hand in hand with the need for intercultural acceptance of developed services and products. To achieve this, engineers, as the problem solvers of the future, must be able to work in intercultural teams on appropriate solutions, and be sensitive to intercultural perspectives. To equip the engineers of the future with the so-called future skills, teaching concepts are needed in which students can acquire these methods and competencies in application-oriented formats. The presented course "Applying Design Thinking - Sustainability, Innovation and Interculturality" was developed to teach future skills from the competency areas Digital Key Competencies, Classical Competencies and Transformative Competencies. The CDIO Standard 3.0, in particular the standards 5, 6, 7 and 8, was used as a guideline. The course aims to prepare engineering students from different disciplines and cultures for their future work in an international environment by combining a digital teaching format with an interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary and intercultural setting for solving sustainability challenges. The innovative moment lies in the digital application of design thinking and the inclusion of intercultural as well as trans- and interdisciplinary perspectives in innovation development processes. In this paper, the concept of the course will be presented in detail and the particularities of a digital implementation of design thinking will be addressed. Subsequently, the potentials and challenges will be reflected and practical advice for integrating design thinking in engineering education will be given.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FredebeulKrein2016, author = {Fredebeul-Krein, Markus}, title = {Towards trade facilitation via regulatory convergence: An analysis of the TTIP chapter on Electronic Communications}, series = {Regional ITS Conference of the International Telecommunications Society.

The aim is to create the largest free trade area in the world. The agreement, once entered into force, will oblige EU countries and the U.S. to further liberalize their markets. The negotiations on TTIP include a chapter on Electronic Communications/ Telecommunications. The challenge therein will be securing commitments for market access to Electronic Communications services. At the same time, these commitments must reflect the legitimate need for consumer protection issues. The need to reduce Electronic Communications-related non-tariff barriers to trade between the Parties is due to the fact that these markets are heavily regulated. Without transnational rules as to regulations national governments can abuse these regulations to deter the market entry by new (foreign) suppliers. Thus the free trade agreement TTIP affects in many respects regulatory provisions on and access to Electronic Communications markets. The objective of this paper is therefore to examine to what extend the regulatory principles for Electronic Communications markets envisaged under TTIP will result in trade facilitation and regulatory convergence between the EU and the U.S. As to this question the result of the analysis is that the chapter on Electronic Communications will be an important step towards facilitating trade in Electronic Communications services. At the same time some regulatory convergence will take place, but this convergence will not lead to a (full) harmonization of regulations. Rather the norm, also after TTIP negotiations will have been concluded successfully, will be mutual recognition of different regulatory regimes. Different regulations being the optimal policy response in different market settings will continue to exist. Moreover, it is very unlikely that such regulatory principles for the Electronic Communications sector are a vehicle for a race to the bottom in levels of consumer protection.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LuepfertHerrmannPriceetal.2004, author = {L{\"u}pfert, E. and Herrmann, Ulf and Price, Henry and Zarza, E. and Kistener, R.}, title = {Towards Standard Performance Analysis for Parabolic Trough Collector Fields}, series = {12th International Symposium Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems, October 6-8, 2004, Oaxaca Mexico ; SolarPACES International Symposium, 12}, booktitle = {12th International Symposium Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems, October 6-8, 2004, Oaxaca Mexico ; SolarPACES International Symposium, 12}, editor = {Ramos, C.}, publisher = {Instituto de Investigaciones Electricas}, address = {[s.l.]}, isbn = {968-6114-18-1}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Jacobs2007, author = {Jacobs, Stephan}, title = {Towards integration driven design : experience report}, series = {Software Engineering 2007 : Beitr{\"a}ge zu den Workshops ; Fachtagung des GI-Fachbereichs Softwaretechnik ; 27. - 30.03.2007 in Hamburg. - (GI-Edition : Proceedings ; 106)}, booktitle = {Software Engineering 2007 : Beitr{\"a}ge zu den Workshops ; Fachtagung des GI-Fachbereichs Softwaretechnik ; 27. - 30.03.2007 in Hamburg. - (GI-Edition : Proceedings ; 106)}, editor = {Bleek, Wolf-Gideon}, publisher = {Ges. f{\"u}r Informatik}, address = {Bonn}, isbn = {978-3-88579-200-0}, pages = {143 -- 150}, year = {2007}, language = {en} }
