The absence of a general method for endotoxin removal from liquid interfaces urgently requires finding new methods and materials to overcome this gap.

Activated carbon materials showed good adsorption properties for LPS and some proteins used in the experiments. During the batch experiments, several techniques (dust removal, autoclaving) were used and optimized for improving the material's adsorption behavior. Also, with the results obtained it was possible to differentiate the materials according to their adsorption capacity and kinetic characteristics.

Performance of stapled anastomosis is studied in terms of leakage and numerical results which are compared to in vitro experiments performed on fresh porcine tissue. Results suggest that leaks occur between the tissue and staple legs penetrating through the tissue.}, subject = {Anastomose}, language = {en} } @article{StaatBallmann1988, author = {Staat, Manfred and Ballmann, J.}, title = {Computation of impacts on elastic solids by methods of bicharacteristics}, series = {Computational Mechanics '88 : theory and applications ; proceedings of the International Conference on Computational Engineering Science April 10-14, 1988, Atlanta, GA, USA ; vol. 2}, journal = {Computational Mechanics '88 : theory and applications ; proceedings of the International Conference on Computational Engineering Science April 10-14, 1988, Atlanta, GA, USA ; vol. 2}, pages = {1719 -- 1722}, year = {1988}, abstract = {Shock waves, explosions, impacts or cavitation bubble collapses may generate stress waves in solids causing cracks or unexpected dammage due to focussing, physical nonlinearity or interaction with existing cracks.

Tomiyama, Elsevier, Seite 1-22 Current CAD tools are not able to support the conceptual design phase, and none of them provides a consistency analysis for sketches produced by architects. This phase is fundamental and crucial for the whole design and construction process of a building. To give architects a better support, we developed a CAD tool for conceptual design and a knowledge specification tool. The knowledge is specific to one class of buildings and it can be reused. Based on a dynamic and domain-specific knowledge ontology, different types of design rules formalize this knowledge in a graph-based form. An expressive visual language provides a user-friendly, human readable representation. Finally, a consistency analysis tool enables conceptual designs to be checked against this formal conceptual knowledge. In this article, we concentrate on the knowledge specification part. For that, we introduce the concepts and usage of a novel visual language and describe its semantics. To demonstrate the usability of our approach, two graph-based visual tools for knowledge specification and conceptual design are explained.}, subject = {CAD}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KraftRetkowitz2006, author = {Kraft, Bodo and Retkowitz, Daniel}, title = {Rule-Dependencies for Visual Knowledge Specification in Conceptual Design}, year = {2006}, abstract = {In: Proc. of the 11th Intl. Conf. on Computing in Civil and Building Engineering (ICCCBE-XI) ed. Hugues Rivard, Montreal, Canada, Seite 1-12, ACSE (CD-ROM), 2006 Currently, the conceptual design phase is not adequately supported by any CAD tool. Neither the support while elaborating conceptual sketches, nor the automatic proof of correctness with respect to effective restrictions is currently provided by any commercial tool. To enable domain experts to store the common as well as their personal domain knowledge, we develop a visual language for knowledge formalization. In this paper, a major extension to the already existing concepts is introduced. The possibility to define rule dependencies extends the expressiveness of the knowledge definition language and contributes to the usability of our approach.}, subject = {CAD}, language = {en} }
