The further growth of the wind industry depends on technological solutions to the challenges in production and construction of the turbines. Wind turbine tower vibrations, which limit power generation efficiency and cause fatigue problems with high maintenance costs, count as one of the main structural difficulties in the wind energy sector. To mitigate tower vibrations auxiliary measures are necessary. The effectiveness of tuned mass damper is verified by means of a numeric study on a 5 MW onshore reference wind turbine. Hereby, also seismic-induced vibrations and soil-structure interaction are considered. Acquired results show that tuned mass damper can effectively reduce resonant tower vibrations and improve the fatigue life of wind turbines. This chapter is also concerned with tuned liquid column damper and a semiactive application of it. Due to its geometric versatility and low prime costs, tuned liquid column dampers are a good alternative to other damping measures, in particular for slender structures like wind turbines.}, language = {en} } @incollection{ButenwegNorda2014, author = {Butenweg, Christoph and Norda, H.}, title = {Erdbebenberechnung von Mauerwerksbauten nach DIN EN 1998-1:2010-12}, series = {Mauerwerksbau-Praxis nach Eurocode / Schubert, Schneider, Schoch (Hrsg.). - 3., vollst{\"a}ndig {\"u}berarbeitete Auflage}, booktitle = {Mauerwerksbau-Praxis nach Eurocode / Schubert, Schneider, Schoch (Hrsg.). - 3., vollst{\"a}ndig {\"u}berarbeitete Auflage}, publisher = {Beuth}, address = {Berlin, Wien, Z{\"u}rich}, isbn = {978-3-410-22739-7}, pages = {367 -- 412}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @incollection{Laack2014, author = {Laack, Walter van}, title = {Gefahren heutiger neurologischer Schlussfolgerungen f{\"u}r ethische Verantwortung}, series = {Ethik und Moral in Staat, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft : 5.

A depth image is computed by calculating the distortion of a known infrared light (IR) pattern which is projected into the scene. While these sensors are great devices they have some limitations. The distance they can measure is limited and they suffer from reflection problems on transparent, shiny, or very matte and absorbing objects. If more than one RGB-D camera is used the IR patterns interfere with each other. This results in a massive loss of depth information. In this paper, we present a simple and powerful method to overcome these problems. We propose a stereo RGB-D camera system which uses the pros of RGB-D cameras and combine them with the pros of stereo camera systems. The idea is to utilize the IR images of each two sensors as a stereo pair to generate a depth map. The IR patterns emitted by IR projectors are exploited here to enhance the dense stereo matching even if the observed objects or surfaces are texture-less or transparent. The resulting disparity map is then fused with the depth map offered by the RGB-D sensor to fill the regions and the holes that appear because of interference, or due to transparent or reflective objects. Our results show that the density of depth information is increased especially for transparent, shiny or matte objects.}, language = {en} } @incollection{KrollLudwigs2014, author = {Kroll-Ludwigs, Kathrin}, title = {Vorbemerkung vor \S 1353}, series = {Erman, B{\"u}rgerliches Gesetzbuch : Handkommentar mit AGG, EGBGB (Auszug) , ErbbauRG, LPartG, ProdHaftG, VBVG, VersAus-glG und WEG}, booktitle = {Erman, B{\"u}rgerliches Gesetzbuch : Handkommentar mit AGG, EGBGB (Auszug) , ErbbauRG, LPartG, ProdHaftG, VBVG, VersAus-glG und WEG}, editor = {Ermann, Walter, and Grunewald, Barbara and Maier-Reimer, Georg}, publisher = {Verlag Dr. Otto Schmidt}, address = {K{\"o}ln}, isbn = {978-3-50447-102-6}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @incollection{KrollLudwigs2014, author = {Kroll-Ludwigs, Kathrin}, title = {Einleitung vor \S 1297}, series = {B{\"u}rgerliches Gesetzbuch : Handkommentar mit AGG, EGBGB (Auszug), ErbbauRG, HausratsVO, LPartG, ProdHaftG, UKlaG, VAHRG und WEG}, booktitle = {B{\"u}rgerliches Gesetzbuch : Handkommentar mit AGG, EGBGB (Auszug), ErbbauRG, HausratsVO, LPartG, ProdHaftG, UKlaG, VAHRG und WEG}, publisher = {Verlag Dr. Otto Schmidt}, address = {K{\"o}ln}, isbn = {978-3-504-47102-6}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @incollection{SchoeningPoghossianGluecketal.2014, author = {Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Poghossian, Arshak and Gl{\"u}ck, Olaf and Thust, Marion}, title = {Electrochemical methods for the determination of chemical variables in aqueous media}, series = {Measurement, instrumentation, and sensors handbook / ed. by John G.

When humans participate in a meeting with the help of video conferencing tools, it is crucial that they are able to follow the conversation both with acoustic and visual input. To this end, we design and implement a video conferencing tool robot that uses binaural sound source localization as its main source to autonomously orient towards the currently talking speaker. To increase robustness of the acoustic cue against noise we supplement the sound localization with a source detection stage. Also, we include a simple onset detector to retain fast response times. Since we only use two microphones, we are confronted with ambiguities on whether a source is in front or behind the device. We resolve these ambiguities with the help of face detection and additional moves. We tailor the system to our target scenarios in experiments with a four minute scripted conversation. In these experiments we evaluate the influence of different system settings on the responsiveness and accuracy of the device.}, language = {en} } @incollection{SrivastavaKnolleHoyleretal.2015, author = {Srivastava, Alok and Knolle, Friedhart and Hoyler, Friedrich and Scherer, Ulrich W. and Schnug, Ewald}, title = {Uranium Toxicity in the State of Punjab in North-Western India}, series = {Management of Natural Resources in a Changing Environment}, booktitle = {Management of Natural Resources in a Changing Environment}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-12559-6}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-12559-6_21}, pages = {271 -- 275}, year = {2015}, abstract = {Lately there has been an increasing concern about uranium toxicity in some districts of Punjab State located in the North Western part of India after the publication of a report (Blaurock-Busch et al. 2010) which showed that the concentration of uranium in hair and urine of children suffering from physical deformities, neurological and mental disorder from Malwa region (Fig. 1) of Punjab State was manifold higher than the reference ranges.
