Methods Nine healthy volunteers and 12 prostate cancer patients were scanned on a 7 T whole-body system. Preparation consisted of B₀ and radiofrequency shimming and localized flip angle calibration. T₁ and T₂ relaxation times were measured and used to define the T2w-TSE protocol. T2w imaging was performed using a TSE sequence (pulse repetition time/echo time 3000-3640/71 ms) with prolonged excitation and refocusing pulses to reduce specific absorption rate. Results High quality T2w TSE imaging was performed in less than 2 min in all subjects. Tumors of patients with gold-standard tumor localization (MR-guided biopsy or prostatectomy) were well visualized on 7 T imaging (n = 3). The number of consecutive slices achievable within a 10-g averaged specific absorption rate limit of 10 W/kg was ≥28 in all subjects, sufficient for full prostate coverage with 3-mm slices in at least one direction. Conclusion High quality T2w TSE prostate imaging can be performed routinely and within specific absorption rate limits at 7 T with an external transceive body array.}, language = {en} } @article{KrauseRodriguezStopicetal.2007, author = {Krause, Gregor and Rodriguez, Jackson and Stopic, Srecko and Friedrich, Bernd}, title = {Feasibility assessment of electrocoagulation towards a new sustainable wastewater treatment / Rodriguez, Jackson ; Stopic, Srecko ; Krause Gregor ; Friedrich, Bernd}, series = {Environmental Science and Pollution Research. 14 (2007), H. 7}, journal = {Environmental Science and Pollution Research. 14 (2007), H. 7}, isbn = {0944-1344}, pages = {477 -- 482}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NiemuellerReuterFerrein2016, author = {Niemueller, Tim and Reuter, Sebastian and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {Fawkes for the RoboCup Logistics League}, series = {RoboCup 2015: Robot World Cup XIX}, booktitle = {RoboCup 2015: Robot World Cup XIX}, editor = {Almeida, Luis}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-29339-4}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-29339-4_31}, pages = {365 -- 373}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @article{OssmannHattrupBroeck2003, author = {Oßmann, Martin and Hattrup, C. and Broeck, H.

These studies were not focused on attention as the most vulnerable cognitive function. Additionally, mostly no magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences were performed. Materials and Methods In all, 25 right-handed men were enrolled in this study. All subjects underwent one MRI examination of 63 minutes at 1.5 T and one at 7 T within an interval of 10 to 30 days. The order of the examinations was randomized. Subjects were referred to six standardized neuropsychological tests strictly focused on attention immediately before and after each MRI examination. Differences in neuropsychological variables between the timepoints before and after each MRI examination were assessed and P-values were calculated Results Only six subtests revealed significant differences between pre- and post-MRI. In these tests the subjects achieved better results in post-MRI testing than in pre-MRI testing (P = 0.013-0.032). The other tests revealed no significant results. Conclusion The improvement in post-MRI testing is only explicable as a result of learning effects.

Typically, the workflow is divided into consecutive stages: First, the engineer designs the layout of the system, with the help of his experience or of heuristic methods. Secondly, he finds a control strategy which is often optimized by simulation. This usually results in a good operating of an unquestioned sys- tem topology. In contrast, we apply Operations Research (OR) methods to find a cost-optimal solution for both stages simultaneously via mixed integer program- ming (MILP). Technical Operations Research (TOR) allows one to find a provable global optimal solution within the model formulation. However, the modeling error due to the abstraction of physical reality remains unknown. We address this ubiq- uitous problem of OR methods by comparing our computational results with mea- surements in a test rig.

Its heating system consists of different source and consumer circuits connected by a Zortstr{\"o}m reservoir. Our goal was to reduce the energy costs of the system as much as possible. Therefore, we analyzed its supply circuits. The first step towards optimization is a complete examination of the system: 1) Compilation of an object list for the system, 2) collection of the characteristic curves of the components, and 3) measurement of the load profiles of the heat and volume-flow demand. Instead of modifying the system manually and testing the solution by simulation, the second step was the creation of a global optimization program. The objective was to minimize the total energy costs for one year.

A great deal of excellent research in the field exists, but practical applications at real disaster sites are scarce. Many projects concentrate on equipping robots with advanced capabilities, such as autonomous exploration or object manipulation. In spite of this, realistic application areas for such robots are limited to teleoperated reconnaissance or search. In this paper, we investigate how well state-of-the-art and off-the-shelf components and algorithms are suited for reconnaissance in current disaster-relief scenarios. The basic idea is to make use of some of the most common sensors and deploy some widely used algorithms in a disaster situation, and to evaluate how well the components work for these scenarios. We acquired the sensor data from two field experiments, one from a disaster-relief operation in a motorway tunnel, and one from a mapping experiment in a partly closed down motorway tunnel. Based on these data, which we make publicly available, we evaluate state-of-the-art and off-the-shelf mapping approaches. In our analysis, we integrate opinions and replies from first responders as well as from some algorithm developers on the usefulness of the data and the limitations of the deployed approaches, respectively. We discuss the lessons we learned during the two missions.

One of the main challenges of this effort is to explain complex robotics contents in a way that pre-school children could follow the basic principles and ideas using examples from their world of experience. What sets apart our effort from other work is that part of the lecturing is actually done by a robot itself and that a quiz at the end of the lesson is done using robots as well. The humanoid robot Pepper from Softbank, which is a great platform for human-robot interaction experiments, was used to present a lecture on robotics by reading out the contents to the children making use of its speech synthesis capability. A quiz in a Runaround-game-show style after the lecture activated the children to recap the contents they acquired about how mobile robots work in principle. In this quiz, two LEGO Mindstorm EV3 robots were used to implement a strongly interactive scenario. Besides the thrill of being exposed to a mobile robot that would also react to the children, they were very excited and at the same time very concentrated. We got very positive feedback from the children as well as from their educators. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of only few attempts to use a robot like Pepper not as a tele-teaching tool, but as the teacher itself in order to engage pre-school children with complex robotics contents.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GligorevicBottSorger2004, author = {Gligorevic, Snjezana and Bott, Rainer and Sorger, Ulrich}, title = {Equalization for multi-carrier systems in time-varying channels}, series = {Multi-carrier spread-spectrum for future generation wireless systems : fourth international workshop, Germany, September 17-19, 2003}, booktitle = {Multi-carrier spread-spectrum for future generation wireless systems : fourth international workshop, Germany, September 17-19, 2003}, editor = {Fazel, Khaled}, isbn = {1402018371}, pages = {251 -- 258}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{Huening2008, author = {H{\"u}ning, Felix}, title = {Entwicklungstrends bei MOSFETs f{\"u}r den Automobilbereich}, series = {Elektronik-Industrie . 39 (2008), H. 5}, journal = {Elektronik-Industrie . 39 (2008), H. 5}, publisher = {-}, isbn = {0174-5522}, pages = {74 -- 76}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BrockmannSultanowCzarnecki2018, author = {Brockmann, Carsten and Sultanow, Eldar and Czarnecki, Christian}, title = {Enterprise architectures between agility and traditional methodologies}, series = {GI Edition Proceedings Band 285 Workshops der INFORMATIK 2018}, booktitle = {GI Edition Proceedings Band 285 Workshops der INFORMATIK 2018}, editor = {Czarnecki, Christian and Brockmann, Carsten and Sultanow, Eldar and Koschmider, Agnes and Selzer, Annika and Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Informatik e.

Thus, biomechanical analysis of textile devices has to include the impact of strain on stretchability and effective porosity. Prolift® and Prolift + M®, developed for tension free conditions, were tested by measuring stretchability and effective porosity applying mechanical strain. For comparison, we used Dynamesh-PR4®, which was designed for pelvic floor repair to withstand mechanical strain. Prolift® at rest showed moderate porosity with little stretchability but complete loss of effective porosity at strain of 4.9 N/cm. Prolift + M® revealed an increased porosity at rest, but at strain showed high stretchability, with subsequent loss of effective porosity at strain of 2.5 N/cm. Dynamesh PR4® preserved its high porosity even under strain, but as consequence of limited stretchability. Though in tension free conditions Prolift® and Prolift + M® can be considered as large pore class I meshes, application of mechanical strain rapidly lead to collapse of pores. The loss of porosity at mechanical stress can be prevented by constructions with high structural stability. Assessment of porosity under strain was found helpful to define requirements for pelvic floor devices. Clinical studies have to prove whether devices with high porosity as well as high structural stability can improve the patients' outcome.}, language = {en} } @article{SchubaWrona1999, author = {Schuba, Marko and Wrona, Konrad}, title = {Electronic Commerce Transactions in a Wireless Environment / Schuba, Marko. ; Wrona, Konrad}, pages = {1 -- 9}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @article{ProchnowGebingLadageetal.2011, author = {Prochnow, Nora and Gebing, Tina and Ladage, Kerstin and Krause-Finkeldey, Dorothee and Ourdi, Abessamad El and Bitz, Andreas and Streckert, Joachim and Hansen, Volkert and Dermietzel, Rolf}, title = {Electromagnetic field effect or simply stress?

In the present study we applied radio-frequency (RF) signals of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) to full brain exposed male Wistar rats in order to elaborate putative influences on stress hormone release (corticosteron; CORT and adrenocorticotropic hormone; ACTH) and on hippocampal derived synaptic long-term plasticity (LTP) and depression (LTD) as electrophysiological hallmarks for memory storage and memory consolidation. Exposure was computer controlled providing blind conditions. Nominal brain-averaged specific absorption rates (SAR) as a measure of applied mass-related dissipated RF power were 0, 2, and 10 W/kg over a period of 120 min. Comparison of cage exposed animals revealed, regardless of EMF exposure, significantly increased CORT and ACTH levels which corresponded with generally decreased field potential slopes and amplitudes in hippocampal LTP and LTD. Animals following SAR exposure of 2 W/kg (averaged over the whole brain of 2.3 g tissue mass) did not differ from the sham-exposed group in LTP and LTD experiments. In contrast, a significant reduction in LTP and LTD was observed at the high power rate of SAR (10 W/kg). The results demonstrate that a rate of 2 W/kg displays no adverse impact on LTP and LTD, while 10 W/kg leads to significant effects on the electrophysiological parameters, which can be clearly distinguished from the stress derived background. Our findings suggest that UMTS exposure with SAR in the range of 2 W/kg is not harmful to critical markers for memory storage and memory consolidation, however, an influence of UMTS at high energy absorption rates (10 W/kg) cannot be excluded.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchoppHeuermann2013, author = {Schopp, Christoph and Heuermann, Holger}, title = {Electrodeless low pressure lamp with bi-static matching at 2.45 GHz}, series = {2013 European Microwave Conference (EuMC) , Nuremberg}, booktitle = {2013 European Microwave Conference (EuMC) , Nuremberg}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway, NJ}, isbn = {978-1-4799-0264-4}, pages = {881 -- 884}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{WindmuellerSchapsZantisetal.2024, author = {Windm{\"u}ller, Anna and Schaps, Kristian and Zantis, Frederik and Domgans, Anna and Taklu, Bereket Woldegbreal and Yang, Tingting and Tsai, Chih-Long and Schierholz, Roland and Yu, Shicheng and Kungl, Hans and Tempel, Hermann and Dunin-Borkowski, Rafal E. and H{\"u}ning, Felix and Hwang, Bing Joe and Eichel, R{\"u}diger-A.}, title = {Electrochemical activation of LiGaO2: implications for ga-doped garnet solid electrolytes in li-metal batteries}, series = {ACS Applied Materials \& Interfaces}, volume = {16}, journal = {ACS Applied Materials \& Interfaces}, number = {30}, publisher = {ACS Publications}, address = {Washington, DC}, issn = {39181-3919}, doi = {10.1021/acsami.4c03729}, pages = {14 Seiten}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Ga-doped Li7La3Zr2O12 garnet solid electrolytes exhibit the highest Li-ion conductivities among the oxide-type garnet-structured solid electrolytes, but instabilities toward Li metal hamper their practical application. The instabilities have been assigned to direct chemical reactions between LiGaO2 coexisting phases and Li metal by several groups previously. Yet, the understanding of the role of LiGaO2 in the electrochemical cell and its electrochemical properties is still lacking. Here, we are investigating the electrochemical properties of LiGaO2 through electrochemical tests in galvanostatic cells versus Li metal and complementary ex situ studies via confocal Raman microscopy, quantitative phase analysis based on powder X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron energy loss spectroscopy. The results demonstrate considerable and surprising electrochemical activity, with high reversibility. A three-stage reaction mechanism is derived, including reversible electrochemical reactions that lead to the formation of highly electronically conducting products. The results have considerable implications for the use of Ga-doped Li7La3Zr2O12 electrolytes in all-solid-state Li-metal battery applications and raise the need for advanced materials engineering to realize Ga-doped Li7La3Zr2O12for practical use.}, language = {en} } @incollection{NiendorfWinterFrauenrath2012, author = {Niendorf, Thoralf and Winter, Lukas and Frauenrath, Tobias}, title = {Electrocardiogram in an MRI environment: Clinical needs, practical considerations, safety implications, technical solutions and fFuture directions}, series = {Advances in Electrocardiograms - Methods and Analysis}, booktitle = {Advances in Electrocardiograms - Methods and Analysis}, editor = {Millis, Richard}, publisher = {IntechOpen}, address = {London}, isbn = {978-953-307-923-3 (print)}, doi = {10.5772/24340}, pages = {309 -- 324}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannSadeghfam2008, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Sadeghfam, Arash}, title = {Electrically tunable bandpass filter with integrated carrier suppression for UHF RFID systems / Sadeghfam, Arash ; Heuermann, Holger}, series = {European Microwave Conference, 2008, EuMC 2008, 38th}, journal = {European Microwave Conference, 2008, EuMC 2008, 38th}, isbn = {978-2-87487-006-4}, pages = {1727 -- 1730}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannSadeghfam2008, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Sadeghfam, Arash}, title = {Electrically tunable bandpass filter with integrated carrier suppression for UHF RFID systems / Sadeghfam, Arash ; Heuermann, Holger}, series = {European Conference on Wireless Technology, 2008.
