ToF sensors provide full range distance information at high frame-rates and thus have a significant impact onto current research in areas like online object recognition, collision prevention or scene reconstruction. However, ToF cameras like the photonic mixer device (PMD) still exhibit a number of challenges regarding static and dynamic effects, e.g. systematic distance errors and motion artefacts, respectively. Sensor calibration techniques reducing static system errors have been proposed and show promising results. However, current calibration techniques in general need a large set of reference data in order to determine the corresponding parameters for the calibration model. This paper introduces a new calibration approach which combines different demodulation techniques for the ToF- camera 's reference signal. Examples show, that the resulting combined demodulation technique yields improved distance values based on only two required reference data sets.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Kurz2008, author = {Kurz, Melanie}, title = {Theses on the significance of the model in the form-finding process}, series = {"Focused" - Current Design Research Projects and Methods : Swiss Design Network Symposium 2008, 30 - 31 May 2008 Mount Gurten, Berne Switzerland}, booktitle = {"Focused" - Current Design Research Projects and Methods : Swiss Design Network Symposium 2008, 30 - 31 May 2008 Mount Gurten, Berne Switzerland}, publisher = {SwissDesignNetwork, SDN}, address = {Genf}, isbn = {978-3-9523138-0-0}, pages = {115 -- 127}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{AlbrachtArampatzisBaltzopoulos2008, author = {Albracht, Kirsten and Arampatzis, Adamantios and Baltzopoulos, Vasilios}, title = {Assessment of muscle volume and physiological cross-sectional area of the human triceps surae muscle in vivo}, series = {Journal of Biomechanics}, volume = {41}, journal = {Journal of Biomechanics}, issn = {0021-9290}, doi = {10.1016/j.jbiomech.2008.04.020}, pages = {2211 -- 2218}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{CiobanuStaatRahimi2008, author = {Ciobanu, Octavian and Staat, Manfred and Rahimi, Alireza}, title = {The use of open source software in biomechanical finite element analysis}, series = {Buletinul Institutului Politehnic din Ia{\c{s}}i / Universitatea Tehnică Gh.

To meet this challenge, this study proposes an acoustic gating device (ACG) that employs acquisition and processing of acoustic signals for synchronization while providing MRI compatibility, immunity to interferences with electro-magnetic and acoustic fields and suitability for MRI at high magnetic field strengths. The applicability and robustness of the acoustic gating approach is examined in a pilot study, where it substitutes conventional ECG-gating for cardiovascular MR. The merits and limitations of the ACG approach are discussed. Implications for MR imaging in the presence of physiological motion are considered including synchronization with other structure- or motion borne sounds.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PfaffBurnham2008, author = {Pfaff, Raphael and Burnham, Keith J.}, title = {On abstraction and interpretability: a behavioural perspective}, series = {19th International Conference on Systems Engineering 2008 : ICSENG '08 : 19 - 21 Aug. 2008, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Nevada}, booktitle = {19th International Conference on Systems Engineering 2008 : ICSENG '08 : 19 - 21 Aug. 2008, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Nevada}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway, NJ}, organization = {International Conference on Systems Engineering <19, 2008, Las Vegas, Nev.>}, isbn = {978-0-7695-3331-5 ; 978-0-7695-2719-2}, pages = {89 -- 94}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{StaatBaroudTopcuetal.2008, author = {Staat, Manfred and Baroud, Gamal and Topcu, M. and Sponagel, Stefan}, title = {Soft Materials in Technology and Biology - Characteristics, Properties, and Parameter Identification}, series = {Bioengineering in Cell and Tissue Research / Artmann, Gerhard M. ; Chien, Shu (Eds.)}, journal = {Bioengineering in Cell and Tissue Research / Artmann, Gerhard M. ; Chien, Shu (Eds.)}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-540-75408-4}, pages = {253 -- 315}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{BehbahaniWalugaArltetal.2008, author = {Behbahani, Mehdi and Waluga, C. and Arlt, S. and Behr, Marek and Mottaghy, K.}, title = {Computational Analysis of Platelet Aggregation in a Taylor-Couette System}, series = {The International Journal of Artificial Organs. 31 (2008), H. 7}, journal = {The International Journal of Artificial Organs. 31 (2008), H. 7}, isbn = {0391-3988}, pages = {643}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SeilerPichlerPfaffetal.2008, author = {Seiler, Friedrich and Pichler, Alexander and Pfaff, Raphael and George, Alfred and Srulijes, Julio}, title = {Improved Doppler picture velocimetry and new automated processing}, series = {14th International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to Fluid Mechanics : Lisbon, Portugal, 7 - 10 July 2008}, booktitle = {14th International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to Fluid Mechanics : Lisbon, Portugal, 7 - 10 July 2008}, organization = {International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to Fluid Mechanics <14, 2008, Lisboa>}, pages = {1 -- 12}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{MorenoiCodinachsKloockSchoeningetal.2008, author = {Moreno i Codinachs, Lia and Kloock, Joachim P. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Baldi, Antoni and Ipatov, Andrey and Bratov, Andrey V. and Jimenez-Jorquera, Cecilia}, title = {Electronic integrated multisensor tongue applied to grape juice and wine analysis}, series = {Analyst. 133 (2008)}, journal = {Analyst. 133 (2008)}, isbn = {1364-5528}, pages = {1440 -- 1448}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{ZiemonsBruyndonckxPerezetal.2008, author = {Ziemons, Karl and Bruyndonckx, Peter and Perez, Jose M. and Pietrzyk, Uwe and Rato, P. and Tavernier, Stefaan}, title = {Beyond ClearPET: Next Aims}, series = {5th IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging: From Nano to Macro Symposium Proceedings ISBI 2008}, journal = {5th IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging: From Nano to Macro Symposium Proceedings ISBI 2008}, isbn = {978-1-4244-2003-2}, pages = {1421 -- 1424}, year = {2008}, abstract = {The CRYSTAL CLEAR collaboration, in short CCC, is a consortium of 12 academic institutions, mainly from Europe, joining efforts in the area of developing instrumentation for nuclear medicine and medical imaging. In the framework of the CCC a high performance small animal PET system, called ClearPET, was developed by using new technologies in electronics and crystals in a phoswich arrangement combining two types of lutetium- based scintillator materials: LSO:Ce and LuYAP:Ce. Our next aim will be the development of hybrid image systems. Hybrid MR-PET imaging has many unique advantages for brain research. This has sparked a new research line within CCC for the development of novel MR-PET compatible technologies. MRI is not as sensitive as PET but PET has poorer spatial resolution than MRI. Two major advantages of PET are sensitivity and its ability to acquire metabolic information. To assess these innovations, the development of a 9.4T hybrid animal MR-PET scanner is proposed based on an existing 9.4T MR scanner that will be adapted to enable simultaneous acquisition of MR and PET data using cutting- edge technology for both MR and PET.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GoettscheHoffschmidtSchmitzetal.2008, author = {G{\"o}ttsche, Joachim and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Schmitz, Stefan and Sauerborn, Markus and Rebholz, Christian and Iffland, David and Badst{\"u}bner, Karin and Buck, Reiner and Teufel, Edgar}, title = {Test of a mini-mirror array for solar concentrating systems}, series = {EuroSun 2008 : 1st International Conference on Solar Heating, Cooling and Buildings ; 7th - 10th October 2008, Lisbon, Portugal : key lectures / ISES, International Solar Energy Society.
