The simplest field-effect sensor is a capacitive EIS sensor, which represents a (bio-)chemically sensitive capacitor. In this chapter, selected examples of recent developments in the field of label-free biosensing using nanomaterial-modified capacitive EIS sensors are summarized. In the first part, we present applications of EIS sensors modified with negatively charged gold nanoparticles for the label-free electrostatic detection of positively charged small proteins and macromolecules, for monitoring the layer-by-layer formation of oppositely charged polyelectrolyte (PE) multilayers as well as for the development of an enzyme-based biomolecular logic gate. In the second part, examples of a label-free detection by means of EIS sensors modified with a positively charged weak PE layer are demonstrated. These include electrical detection of on-chip and in-solution hybridized DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) as well as an EIS sensor with pH-responsive weak PE/enzyme multilayers for enhanced field-effect biosensing.}, language = {en} } @article{MoraisGomesSilvaetal.2017, author = {Morais, Paulo V. and Gomes, Vanderley F., Jr. and Silva, Anielle C.

In particular, the integration of film-based nanomaterials employed in field-effect devices can be interesting to develop biosensors with enhanced properties. In this paper, we studied the fabrication of sensitive nanofilms combining ZnO nanocrystals and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), prepared by means of the layer-by-layer (LbL) technique, in a capacitive electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor (EIS) structure for detecting glucose and urea. The ZnO nanocrystals were incorporated in a polymeric matrix of poly(allylamine) hydrochloride (PAH), and arranged with multi-walled CNTs in a LbL PAH-ZnO/CNTs film architecture onto EIS chips. The electrochemical characterizations were performed by capacitance-voltage and constant capacitance measurements, while the morphology of the films was characterized by atomic force microscopy. The enzymes glucose oxidase and urease were immobilized on film's surface for detection of glucose and urea, respectively. In order to obtain glucose and urea biosensors with optimized amount of sensitive films, we investigated the ideal number of bilayers for each detection system. The glucose biosensor showed better sensitivity and output signal for an LbL PAH-ZnO/CNTs nanofilm with 10 bilayers. On the other hand, the urea biosensor presented enhanced properties even for the first bilayer, exhibiting high sensitivity and output signal. The presence of the LbL PAH-ZnO/CNTs films led to biosensors with better sensitivity and enhanced response signal, demonstrating that the adequate use of nanostructured films is feasible for proof-of-concept biosensors with improved properties that may be employed for biomedical applications.}, language = {en} } @incollection{KrollLudwigs2017, author = {Kroll-Ludwigs, Kathrin}, title = {Names of individuals}, series = {European Encyclopedia of Private International Law}, booktitle = {European Encyclopedia of Private International Law}, publisher = {Edward Elgar Publishing}, address = {Cheltenham, UK}, isbn = {9781782547228}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{PeloniDachwaldCeriotti2017, author = {Peloni, Alessandro and Dachwald, Bernd and Ceriotti, Matteo}, title = {Multiple near-earth asteroid rendezvous mission: Solar-sailing options}, series = {Advances in Space Research}, journal = {Advances in Space Research}, number = {In Press, Corrected Proof}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0273-1177}, doi = {10.1016/j.asr.2017.10.017}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PeloniDachwaldCeriotti2017, author = {Peloni, Alessandro and Dachwald, Bernd and Ceriotti, Matteo}, title = {Multiple NEA rendezvous mission: Solar sailing options}, series = {Fourth International Symposium on Solar Sailing}, booktitle = {Fourth International Symposium on Solar Sailing}, pages = {1 -- 11}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The scientific interest in near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) and the classification of some of those as potentially hazardous asteroid for the Earth stipulated the interest in NEA exploration. Close-up observations of these objects will increase drastically our knowledge about the overall NEA population. For this reason, a multiple NEA rendezvous mission through solar sailing is investigated, taking advantage of the propellantless nature of this groundbreaking propulsion technology. Considering a spacecraft based on the DLR/ESA Gossamer technology, this work focuses on the search of possible sequences of NEA encounters. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated through a number of fully-optimized trajectories. The results show that it is possible to visit five NEAs within 10 years with near-term solar-sail technology. Moreover, a study on a reduced NEA database demonstrates the reliability of the approach used, showing that 58\% of the sequences found with an approximated trajectory model can be converted into real solar-sail trajectories. Lastly, this second study shows the effectiveness of the proposed automatic optimization algorithm, which is able to find solutions for a large number of mission scenarios without any input required from the user.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchoppHeuermannMarso2017, author = {Schopp, Christoph and Heuermann, Holger and Marso, Michel}, title = {Multiphysical Study of an Atmospheric Microwave Argon Plasma Jet}, series = {IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science}, volume = {45}, booktitle = {IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science}, number = {6}, publisher = {IEEE}, issn = {1939-9375}, doi = {10.1109/TPS.2017.2692735}, pages = {932 -- 937}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AltherrEdererFarnetaneetal.2017, author = {Altherr, Lena and Ederer, Thorsten and Farnetane, Lucas S. and P{\"o}ttgen, Philipp and Verg{\´e}, Angela and Pelz, Peter F.}, title = {Multicriterial design of a hydrostatic transmission system via mixed-integer programming}, series = {Operations Research Proceedings 2015}, booktitle = {Operations Research Proceedings 2015}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-42901-4}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-42902-1_41}, pages = {301 -- 307}, year = {2017}, abstract = {In times of planned obsolescence the demand for sustainability keeps growing. Ideally, a technical system is highly reliable, without failures and down times due to fast wear of single components. At the same time, maintenance should preferably be limited to pre-defined time intervals. Dispersion of load between multiple components can increase a system's reliability and thus its availability inbetween maintenance points. However, this also results in higher investment costs and additional efforts due to higher complexity. Given a specific load profile and resulting wear of components, it is often unclear which system structure is the optimal one. Technical Operations Research (TOR) finds an optimal structure balancing availability and effort.

However, in complex structures such as nuclear power plants, the safety or the risk depends also on the components associated with a system. The classical fault tree analysis gives an overall view of the failure and contains several subsystems to the main event, however, the interactions in the subsystems are not well represented. In order to represent the interaction of the components, a method suggested by Cimellaro et al. (2006) using multidimensional performance limit state functions to obtain the system fragility curves is adopted. This approach gives the possibility of deriving the cumulative fragility taking into account the interaction of the response of different components. In this paper, this approach is used to evaluate seismic risk of a representative electrical building infrastructure, including the component, of a nuclear power plant. A simplified model of the structure, with nonlinear material behavior is employed for the analysis in Abaqus©. The input variables considered are the material parameters, boundary conditions and the seismic input. The variability of the seismic input is obtained from selected ground motion time histories of spectrum compatible synthetic ccelerograms. Unlike the usual Monte Carlo methods used for the probabilistic analysis of the structure, a computationally effective response surface method is used. This method reduces the computational effort of the calculations by reducing the required number of samples.}, language = {en} } @article{MeyerHentschkeHageretal.2017, author = {Meyer, Jan and Hentschke, Reinhard and Hager, Jonathan and Hojdis, Nils and Karimi-Varzaneh, Hossein Ali}, title = {Molecular Simulation of Viscous Dissipation due to Cyclic Deformation of a Silica-Silica Contact in Filled Rubber}, series = {Macromolecules}, volume = {50}, journal = {Macromolecules}, number = {17}, issn = {1520-5835}, doi = {10.1021/acs.macromol.7b00947}, pages = {6679 -- 6689}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{WerkhausenAlbrachtCroninetal.2017, author = {Werkhausen, Amelie and Albracht, Kirsten and Cronin, Neil J. and Meier, Rahel and Mojsen-Moeller, Jens and Seynnes, Olivier R.}, title = {Modulation of muscle-tendon interaction in the human triceps surae during an energy dissipation task}, series = {Journal of Experimental Biology}, volume = {220}, journal = {Journal of Experimental Biology}, number = {22}, issn = {0022-0949}, doi = {10.1242/jeb.164111}, pages = {4141 -- 4149}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PfaffMoshiriReichetal.2017, author = {Pfaff, Raphael and Moshiri, Amir and Reich, Alexander and G{\"a}bel, Markus}, title = {Modelling of the effect of sanding on the wheel-rail adhesion area}, series = {First International Conference on Rail Transportation}, booktitle = {First International Conference on Rail Transportation}, pages = {1 -- 7}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{HorbachDuongStaat2017, author = {Horbach, Andreas and Duong, Minh Tuan and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Modelling of compressible and orthotropic surgical mesh implants based on optical deformation measurement}, series = {Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials}, volume = {74}, journal = {Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1751-6161}, doi = {10.1016/j.jmbbm.2017.06.012}, pages = {400 -- 410}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MoshiriKahakPfaffGaebeletal.2017, author = {Moshiri-Kahak, Amir and Pfaff, Raphael and G{\"a}bel, Markus and Reich, Alexander}, title = {Modellierung der Adh{\"a}sionsfl{\"a}che im Rad-Schiene-Kontakt unter Einsatz von reibwertverbessernden Mitteln}, series = {15.

This way, the propulsive acceleration of the sail results from the combined action of the solar and the laser radiation pressure onto the sail. The potential source of the laser beam is a laser satellite that coverts solar power (in the inner solar system) or nuclear power (in the outer solar system) into laser power. Such a laser satellite (or many of them) can orbit anywhere in the solar system and its optimal orbit (or their optimal orbits) for a given mission is a subject for future research. This contribution provides the model for an ideal laser-enhanced solar sail and investigates how a laser can enhance the thrusting capability of such a sail. The term "ideal" means that the solar sail is assumed to be perfectly reflecting and that the laser beam is assumed to have a constant areal power density over the whole sail area. Since a laser beam has a limited divergence, it can provide radiation pressure at much larger solar distances and increase the radiation pressure force into the desired direction. Therefore, laser-enhanced solar sails may make missions feasible, that would otherwise have prohibitively long flight times, e.g. rendezvous missions in the outer solar system. This contribution will also analyze exemplary mission scenarios and present optimial trajectories without laying too much emphasis on the design and operations of the laser satellites. If the mission studies conclude that laser-enhanced solar sails would have advantages with respect to "traditional" solar sails, a detailed study of the laser satellites and the whole system architecture would be the second next step}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchreiberKraftZuendorf2017, author = {Schreiber, Marc and Kraft, Bodo and Z{\"u}ndorf, Albert}, title = {Metrics Driven Research Collaboration: Focusing on Common Project Goals Continuously}, series = {39th International Conference on Software Engineering, May 20-28, 2017 - Buenos Aires, Argentina}, booktitle = {39th International Conference on Software Engineering, May 20-28, 2017 - Buenos Aires, Argentina}, pages = {8 Seiten}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Research collaborations provide opportunities for both practitioners and researchers: practitioners need solutions for difficult business challenges and researchers are looking for hard problems to solve and publish.

In this paper we introduce an approach extending the ideas of agile and lean software development. It helps practitioners and researchers keep track of their common research collaboration goal: a scientifically enriched software product which fulfills the needs of the practitioner's business model. This approach gives first-class status to application-oriented metrics that measure progress and success of a research collaboration continuously. Those metrics are derived from the collaboration requirements and help to focus on a commonly defined goal. An appropriate tool set evaluates and visualizes those metrics with minimal effort, and all participants will be pushed to focus on their tasks with appropriate effort.
