Patients with temporal lobe epilepsy often present with a reduction in hippocampal volume. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of hippocampal atrophy on the quantification of mAChR with single photon emission tomography (SPET) in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. Cerebral uptake of the muscarinic cholinergic antagonist [123I]4-iododexetimide (IDex) was investigated by SPET in patients suffering from temporal lobe epilepsy of unilateral (n=6) or predominantly unilateral (n=1) onset. Regions of interest were drawn on co-registered magnetic resonance images. Hippocampal volume was determined in these regions and was used to correct the SPET results for partial volume effects. A ratio of hippocampal IDex binding on the affected side to that on the unaffected side was used to detect changes in muscarinic cholinergic receptor density. Before partial volume correction a decrease in hippocampal IDex binding on the focus side was found in each patient. After partial volume no convincing differences remained. Our results indicate that the reduction in hippocampal IDex binding in patients with epilepsy is due to a decrease in hippocampal volume rather than to a decrease in receptor concentration.}, language = {en} } @article{WeckesserGriessmeierSchmidtetal.1998, author = {Weckesser, Martin and Grießmeier, Martin and Schmidt, Daniela and Sonnenberg, Frank and Ziemons, Karl and Kemna, Lars and Holschbach, Marcus and Langen, Karl-J. and M{\"u}ller-G{\"a}rtner, Hans-W.}, title = {Iodine-123 α-methyl tyrosine single-photon emission tomography of cerebral gliomas: standardised evaluation of tumour uptake and extent}, series = {European Journal of Nuclear Medicine}, volume = {25}, journal = {European Journal of Nuclear Medicine}, number = {2}, isbn = {1619-7089}, pages = {150 -- 156}, year = {1998}, abstract = {Single-photon emission tomography (SPET) with the amino acid analogue l-3-[123I]iodo-α-methyl tyrosine (IMT) is helpful in the diagnosis and monitoring of cerebral gliomas. Radiolabelled amino acids seem to reflect tumour infiltration more specifically than conventional methods like magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography. Automatic tumour delineation based on maximal tumour uptake may cause an overestimation of mean tumour uptake and an underestimation of tumour extension in tumours with circumscribed peaks. The aim of this study was to develop a program for tumour delineation and calculation of mean tumour uptake which takes into account the mean background activity and is thus optimised to the problem of tumour definition in IMT SPET. Using the frequency distribution of pixel intensities of the tomograms a program was developed which automatically detects a reference brain region and draws an isocontour region around the tumour taking into account mean brain radioactivity. Tumour area and tumour/brain ratios were calculated. A three-compartment phantom was simulated to test the program. The program was applied to IMT SPET studies of 20 patients with cerebral gliomas and was compared to the results of manual analysis by three different investigators. Activity ratios and chamber extension of the phantom were correctly calculated by the automatic analysis. A method based on image maxima alone failed to determine chamber extension correctly. Manual region of interest analysis in patient studies resulted in a mean inter-observer standard deviation of 8.7\%±6.1\% (range 2.7\%-25.0\%). The mean value of the results of the manual analysis showed a significant correlation to the results of the automatic analysis (r = 0.91, P<0.0001 for the uptake ratio; r = 0.87, P<0.0001 for the tumour area). We conclude that the algorithm proposed simplifies the calculation of uptake ratios and may be used for observer-independent evaluation of IMT SPET studies. Three-dimensional tumour recognition and transfer to co-registered morphological images based on this program may be useful for the planning of surgical and radiation treatment.}, language = {en} } @book{JanserHavermann2012, author = {Janser, Frank and Havermann, Marc}, title = {Inkompressible Str{\"o}mungen}, publisher = {Mainz}, address = {Aachen}, isbn = {978-3-86130-446-3}, pages = {189 S. : Ill., graph.

This study primarily focuses on the lateral motion of the flow on the horizontal plane to determine the effect of the flow motion on the straight-line stability and the initial steering response of the actual car on a track. This paper first compares the flow fields in the wake behind the above mentioned model obtained using conventional and high-speed planar PIV, with sampling frequencies of 8 Hz and 1 kHz, respectively. 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{NakagawaKallweitMichauxetal.2016, author = {Nakagawa, Masaki and Kallweit, Stephan and Michaux, Frank and Hojo, Teppei}, title = {Typical Velocity Fields and Vortical Structures around a Formula One Car, based on Experimental Investigations using Particle Image Velocimetry}, series = {SAE International Journal of Passenger Cars - Mechanical Systems}, booktitle = {SAE International Journal of Passenger Cars - Mechanical Systems}, issn = {1946-4002}, doi = {10.4271/2016-01-1611}, pages = {18 S.}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @incollection{SchneiderWisselinkCzarneckietal.2024, author = {Schneider, Dominik and Wisselink, Frank and Czarnecki, Christian and N{\"o}lle, Nikolai}, title = {Benefits and framework conditions for information-driven business models concerning the Internet of Things}, series = {Digitalization in companies}, booktitle = {Digitalization in companies}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-39093-8 (Print)}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-658-39094-5_5}, pages = {59 -- 75}, year = {2024}, abstract = {In the context of the increasing digitalization, the Internet of Things (IoT) is seen as a technological driver through which completely new business models can emerge in the interaction of different players.

There are already many IoT use cases on the market that provide simplification for end users, such as Philips Hue Tap. In addition to business models based on connectivity, there is great potential for information-driven business models that can support or enhance existing business models. One example is the IoT use case Park and Joy, which uses sensors to connect parking spaces and inform drivers about available parking spaces in real time. Information-driven business models can be based on data generated in IoT use cases. For example, a telecommunications company can add value by deriving more decision-relevant information - called insights - from data that is used to increase decision agility. In addition, insights can be monetized. The monetization of insights can only be sustainable, if careful attention is taken and frameworks are considered.

Propeller sweep and high aspect ratios increase elasticity and coupling of structural mechanics and aerodynamics, affecting the propeller performance and noise. Therefore, this paper analyzes the influence of elasticity on forward-swept, backward-swept, and unswept propellers in hover conditions. A reduced-order blade element momentum approach is coupled with a one-dimensional Timoshenko beam theory and Farassat's formulation 1A. The results of the aeroelastic simulation are used as input for the aeroacoustic calculation. The analysis shows that elasticity influences noise radiation because thickness and loading noise respond differently to deformations. In the case of the backward-swept propeller, the location of the maximum sound pressure level shifts forward by 0.5 °, while in the case of the forward-swept propeller, it shifts backward by 0.5 °. Therefore, aeroacoustic optimization requires the consideration of propeller deformation.}, language = {en} } @article{MoehrenBergmannJanseretal.2024, author = {M{\"o}hren, Felix and Bergmann, Ole and Janser, Frank and Braun, Carsten}, title = {Assessment of structural mechanical effects related to torsional deformations of propellers}, series = {CEAS Aeronautical Journal}, journal = {CEAS Aeronautical Journal}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Wien}, issn = {1869-5590 (eISSN)}, doi = {10.1007/s13272-024-00737-7}, pages = {22 Seiten}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Lifting propellers are of increasing interest for Advanced Air Mobility. All propellers and rotors are initially twisted beams, showing significant extension-twist coupling and centrifugal twisting. Torsional deformations severely impact aerodynamic performance. This paper presents a novel approach to assess different reasons for torsional deformations. A reduced-order model runs large parameter sweeps with algebraic formulations and numerical solution procedures. Generic beams represent three different propeller types for General Aviation, Commercial Aviation, and Advanced Air Mobility. Simulations include solid and hollow cross-sections made of aluminum, steel, and carbon fiber-reinforced polymer. The investigation shows that centrifugal twisting moments depend on both the elastic and initial twist. The determination of the centrifugal twisting moment solely based on the initial twist suffers from errors exceeding 5\% in some cases. The nonlinear parts of the torsional rigidity do not significantly impact the overall torsional rigidity for the investigated propeller types. The extension-twist coupling related to the initial and elastic twist in combination with tension forces significantly impacts the net cross-sectional torsional loads. While the increase in torsional stiffness due to initial twist contributes to the overall stiffness for General and Commercial Aviation propellers, its contribution to the lift propeller's stiffness is limited.

However, no studies have been published where OMA is tested in transonic flows, which is the dominant condition for large civil aircraft and is characterized by complex and unique aerodynamic phenomena. We use data from the HIRENASD large-scale wind tunnel experiment to automatically extract modal parameters from an ambiently excited wing operated in the transonic regime using two OMA methods: Stochastic Subspace Identification (SSI) and Frequency Domain Decomposition (FDD). The system response is evaluated based on accelerometer measurements. The excitation is investigated from surface pressure measurements. The forcing function is shown to be non-white, non-stationary and contaminated by narrow-banded transonic disturbances. All these properties violate fundamental OMA assumptions about the forcing function. Despite this, all physical modes in the investigated frequency range were successfully identified, and in addition transonic pressure waves were identified as physical modes as well. The SSI method showed superior identification capabilities for the investigated case. The investigation shows that complex transonic flows can interfere with OMA. This can make existing approaches for modal tracking unsuitable for their application to aircraft wings operated in the transonic flight regime.

Potentials and challenges are identified using separate SWOT analyses for the three prospections and common themes are emphasized in a concluding discussion.}, language = {en} } @article{FerreinDyllaLakemeyer2003, author = {Ferrein, Alexander and Dylla, Frank and Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, title = {Specifying Multirobot Coordination in ICPGolog - From Simulation towards Real Robots / Dylla, Frank ; Ferrein, Alexander ; Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, pages = {1 -- 10}, year = {2003}, language = {en} } @article{DefosseKleinschmidtSchmutzetal.2022, author = {Defosse, Jerome and Kleinschmidt, Joris and Schmutz, Axel and Loop, Torsten and Staat, Manfred and Gatzweiler, Karl-Heinz and Wappler, Frank and Schieren, Mark}, title = {Dental strain on maxillary incisors during tracheal intubation with double-lumen tubes and different laryngoscopy techniques - a blinded manikin study}, series = {Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia}, volume = {36}, journal = {Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia}, number = {8, Part B}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {New York, NY}, issn = {1053-0770}, doi = {10.1053/j.jvca.2022.02.017}, pages = {3021 -- 3027}, year = {2022}, language = {en} } @article{IkenBronderGoretzkietal.2019, author = {Iken, Heiko and Bronder, Thomas and Goretzki, Alexander and Kriesel, Jana and Ahlborn, Kristina and Gerlach, Frank and Vonau, Winfried and Zander, Willi and Schubert, J{\"u}rgen and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Development of a Combined pH- and Redox-Sensitive Bi-Electrode Glass Thin-Film Sensor}, series = {physica status solidi a : applications and materials sciences}, volume = {216}, journal = {physica status solidi a : applications and materials sciences}, number = {12}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1862-6319}, doi = {10.1002/pssa.201900114}, pages = {1 -- 8}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PuetzBaierBrauneretal.2022, author = {P{\"u}tz, Sebastian and Baier, Ralph and Brauner, Philipp and Brillowski, Florian and Dammers, Hannah and Liehner, Luca and Mertens, Alexander and Rodemann, Niklas and Schneider, Sebastian and Schollemann, Alexander and Steuer-Dankert, Linda and Vervier, Luisa and Gries, Thomas and Leicht-Scholten, Carmen and Nagel, Saskia K. and Piller, Frank T. and Schuh, G{\"u}nther and Ziefle, Martina and Nitsch, Verena}, title = {An interdisciplinary view on humane interfaces for digital shadows in the internet of production}, series = {2022 15th International Conference on Human System Interaction (HSI)}, booktitle = {2022 15th International Conference on Human System Interaction (HSI)}, publisher = {IEEE}, isbn = {978-1-6654-6823-7 (Print)}, issn = {2158-2246 (Print)}, doi = {10.1109/HSI55341.2022.9869467}, pages = {8 Seiten}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Digital shadows play a central role for the next generation industrial internet, also known as Internet of Production (IoP).

Based on the four use cases of decision support systems, knowledge sharing in global production networks, human-robot collaboration, and monitoring employee workload, we derive recommendations for interface design and enhancing workers' capabilities.

In this letter, we investigate different MNP agglomeration states for their magnetic relaxation properties under excitation in alternating fields and relate this to their heating efficiency and imaging properties. With focus on magnetic fluid hyperthermia, two different trends in MNP heating efficiency are measured: an increase by up to 23\% for agglomerated MNP in suspension and a decrease by up to 28\% for mixed states of agglomerated and immobilized MNP, which indicates that immobilization is the dominant effect.

Special emphasis is placed on the use of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensing technology and the consideration of Operational and Environmental Variability (OEV). Measurements from a wind tunnel investigation with a composite cantilever equipped with FBG and piezoelectric sensors are used to successfully detect an impact damage. In addition, the feasibility of damage localisation and severity estimation is evaluated based on the coupling found between damageand OEV-induced feature changes.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KleineKallweitMichauxetal.2016, author = {Kleine, Harald and Kallweit, Stephan and Michaux, Frank and Havermann, Marc and Olivier, Herbert}, title = {PIV Measurement of Shock Wave Diffraction}, series = {18th International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to Fluid Mechanics, 2016, Lissabon}, booktitle = {18th International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to Fluid Mechanics, 2016, Lissabon}, pages = {1 -- 14}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DinghoferHartung2020, author = {Dinghofer, Kai and Hartung, Frank}, title = {Analysis of Criteria for the Selection of Machine Learning Frameworks}, series = {2020 International Conference on Computing, Networking and Communications (ICNC)}, booktitle = {2020 International Conference on Computing, Networking and Communications (ICNC)}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York, NY}, doi = {10.1109/ICNC47757.2020.9049650}, pages = {373 -- 377}, year = {2020}, abstract = {With the many achievements of Machine Learning in the past years, it is likely that the sub-area of Deep Learning will continue to deliver major technological breakthroughs [1].

In the face of more than 75 RPA products currently on the market, guidance considering those specifics is required. Therefore, this chapter proposes a criteria-based selection method specifically for RPA. The method includes a quantitative evaluation of costs and benefits as well as a qualitative utility analysis based on functional criteria. By using the visualization of financial implications (VOFI) method, an application-oriented structure is provided that opposes the total cost of ownership to the time savings times salary (TSTS). For the utility analysis a detailed list of functional criteria for RPA is offered. The whole method is based on a multi-vocal review of scientific and non-scholarly literature including publications by business practitioners, consultants, and vendors. The application of the method is illustrated by a concrete RPA example. The illustrated structures, templates, and criteria can be directly utilized by practitioners in their real-life RPA implementations.
