These parts are typically managed on-sight, i.e. with no signalling and train protection systems ensuring the freedom of movement. This is possible due to the rather short braking distances of individual vehicles and shunting consists. The present article analyses the braking behaviour of such shunting units. For this purpose, a dedicated model is developed. It is calibrated on published results of brake tests and validated against a high-definition model for low-speed applications. Based on this model, multiple simulations are executed to obtain a Monte Carlo simulation of the resulting braking distances. Based on the distribution properties and established safety levels, the risk of exceeding certain braking distances is evaluated and maximum braking distances are derived. Together with certain parameters of the system, these can serve in the design and safety assessment of driver assistance systems and automation of these processes.}, language = {en} } @article{UlmerBraunChengetal.2023, author = {Ulmer, Jessica and Braun, Sebastian and Cheng, Chi-Tsun and Dowey, Steve and Wollert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {A human factors-aware assistance system in manufacturing based on gamification and hardware modularisation}, series = {International Journal of Production Research}, journal = {International Journal of Production Research}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, issn = {0020-7543 (Print)}, doi = {10.1080/00207543.2023.2166140}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Assistance systems have been widely adopted in the manufacturing sector to facilitate various processes and tasks in production environments.

A modular system architecture is designed accordingly, which allows a flexible component exchange according to the user and the work task.

This development can be seen on both the market and supply side. To respond to these challenges, manufacturing companies must implement smart manufacturing systems and become more flexible and agile. The flexibility in operational planning regarding the scheduling and sequencing of customer orders needs to be increased and new structures must be implemented in manufacturing systems' fundamental design as they constitute much of the operational flexibility available. To this end, smart and more flexible solutions for production planning and control (PPC) are developed. However, scheduling or sequencing is often only considered isolated in a predefined stable environment. Moreover, their orientation on the fundamental logic of the existing IT solutions and their applicability in a dynamic environment is limited. This paper presents a conceptual model for a task-based description logic that can be applied to factory planning, technology planning, and operational control. By using service-oriented architectures, the goal is to generate smart manufacturing systems. The logic is designed to allow for easy and automated maintenance. It is compatible with the existing resource and process allocation logic across operational and strategic factory and production planning.}, language = {en} } @article{AnikFrohberg1987, author = {Anik, Sabri and Frohberg, Martin G.}, title = {Thermodynamics and solubility of oxygen in liquid bismuth-lead and bismuth-antimony alloys}, series = {Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft f{\"u}r physikalische Chemie}, volume = {91}, journal = {Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft f{\"u}r physikalische Chemie}, number = {7}, issn = {0940-483X}, pages = {790 -- 794}, year = {1987}, language = {en} } @article{FrohbergAnik1983, author = {Frohberg, Martin G. and Anik, Sabri}, title = {The application of a quadi-chemical lattice model to binary metallic solvents containing oxygen in higher concentrations}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Metallkunde}, volume = {74}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Metallkunde}, number = {10}, issn = {0044-3093}, pages = {665 -- 666}, year = {1983}, language = {en} } @article{AbbasHedwigBalcetal.2023, author = {Abbas, Karim and Hedwig, Lukas and Balc, Nicolae and Bremen, Sebastian}, title = {Advanced FFF of PEEK: Infill strategies and material characteristics for rapid tooling}, series = {Polymers}, volume = {2023}, journal = {Polymers}, number = {15}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/polym15214293}, pages = {Artikel 4293}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Traditional vulcanization mold manufacturing is complex, costly, and under pressure due to shorter product lifecycles and diverse variations. Additive manufacturing using Fused Filament Fabrication and high-performance polymers like PEEK offer a promising future in this industry. This study assesses the compressive strength of various infill structures (honeycomb, grid, triangle, cubic, and gyroid) when considering two distinct build directions (Z, XY) to enhance PEEK's economic and resource efficiency in rapid tooling. A comparison with PETG samples shows the behavior of the infill strategies. Additionally, a proof of concept illustrates the application of a PEEK mold in vulcanization. A peak compressive strength of 135.6 MPa was attained in specimens that were 100\% solid and subjected to thermal post-treatment. This corresponds to a 20\% strength improvement in the Z direction. In terms of time and mechanical properties, the anisotropic grid and isotropic cubic infill have emerged for use in rapid tooling. Furthermore, the study highlights that reducing the layer thickness from 0.15 mm to 0.1 mm can result in a 15\% strength increase. The study unveils the successful utilization of a room-temperature FFF-printed PEEK mold in vulcanization injection molding. The parameters and infill strategies identified in this research enable the resource-efficient FFF printing of PEEK without compromising its strength properties. Using PEEK in rapid tooling allows a cost reduction of up to 70\% in tool production.}, language = {en} } @article{FrohbergAnik1985, author = {Frohberg, Martin G. and Anik, Sabri}, title = {The calculation of component activities of binary metallic melts from their gas solubilities}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Metallkunde}, volume = {76}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Metallkunde}, number = {2}, issn = {0044-3093}, pages = {135 -- 137}, year = {1985}, language = {en} } @article{AnikFrohberg1984, author = {Anik, Sabri and Frohberg, Martin G.}, title = {Thermodynamics and solubility of oxygen in liquid copper-lead alloys at 1200°C from E.M.F. measurements}, series = {Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft f{\"u}r physikalische Chemie}, volume = {88}, journal = {Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft f{\"u}r physikalische Chemie}, number = {8}, issn = {0940-483X}, pages = {707 -- 710}, year = {1984}, language = {en} } @article{AnikFrohbergKapoor1983, author = {Anik, Sabri and Frohberg, Martin G. and Kapoor, Madan Lal}, title = {Experiments and theoretical considerations on the solution of oxygen in binary metal alloys}, series = {Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft f{\"u}r physikalische Chemie}, volume = {87}, journal = {Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft f{\"u}r physikalische Chemie}, number = {12}, issn = {0005-9021}, pages = {1201 -- 1204}, year = {1983}, language = {en} } @article{EnningZambouAbel2005, author = {Enning, Manfred and Zambou, Nathan and Abel, Dirk}, title = {Longitudinal Control of Following Vehicles within Platoon : A Model-Based Predictive Approach / Zambou, N. ; Enning, M. ; Abel, D.}, series = {Advances in automotive control 2004 : a proceedings volume from the IFAC symposium, Salerno, Italy, 19 - 23 April 2004 / ed.

Not only does a reduced thermal conductivity cause residual stresses during the process, but it also makes subsequent processes such as the welding of LPBF components more difficult. This article uses 316L stainless steel samples to investigate whether and to what extent the thermal conductivity of specimens can be influenced by different LPBF parameters. To this end, samples are set up using different parameters, orientations, and powder conditions and measured by a heat flow meter using stationary analysis. The heat flow meter set-up used in this study achieves good reproducibility and high measurement accuracy, so that comparative measurements between the various LPBF influencing factors to be tested are possible. In summary, the series of measurements show that the residual porosity of the components has the greatest influence on conductivity. The degradation of the powder due to increased recycling also appears to be detectable. The build-up direction shows no detectable effect in the measurement series.}, language = {en} } @article{RaffeisAdjeiKyeremehVroomenetal.2020, author = {Raffeis, Iris and Adjei-Kyeremeh, Frank and Vroomen, Uwe and Westhoff, Elmar and Bremen, Sebastian and Hohoi, Alexandru and B{\"u}hrig-Polaczek, Andreas}, title = {Qualification of a Ni-Cu alloy for the laser powder bed fusion process (LPBF): Its microstructure and mechanical properties}, series = {Applied Sciences}, volume = {10}, journal = {Applied Sciences}, number = {Art. 3401}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {2076-3417}, doi = {10.3390/app10103401}, pages = {1 -- 15}, year = {2020}, abstract = {As researchers continue to seek the expansion of the material base for additive manufacturing, there is a need to focus attention on the Ni-Cu group of alloys which conventionally has wide industrial applications. In this work, the G-NiCu30Nb casting alloy, a variant of the Monel family of alloys with Nb and high Si content is, for the first time, processed via the laser powder bed fusion process (LPBF). Being novel to the LPBF processes, optimum LPBF parameters were determined, and hardness and tensile tests were performed in as-built conditions and after heat treatment at 1000 °C. Microstructures of the as-cast and the as-built condition were compared. Highly dense samples (99.8\% density) were achieved after varying hatch distance (80 µm and 140 µm) with scanning speed (550 mm/s-1500 mm/s). There was no significant difference in microhardness between varied hatch distance print sets. Microhardness of the as-built condition (247 HV0.2) exceeded the as-cast microhardness (179 HV0.2.). Tensile specimens built in vertical (V) and horizontal (H) orientations revealed degrees of anisotropy and were superior to conventionally reported figures. Post heat treatment increased ductility from 20\% to 31\% (V), as well as from 16\% to 25\% (H), while ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and yield strength (YS) were considerably reduced.}, language = {en} } @article{RakeEnningKurthetal.1994, author = {Rake, Heinrich and Enning, Manfred and Kurth, Johannes and Schr{\"o}der, Walter}, title = {Automatic uncoupler completes automation at the hump}, series = {RGI - Railway Gazette International}, volume = {150}, journal = {RGI - Railway Gazette International}, number = {6}, publisher = {Reed Business}, address = {Sutton}, issn = {0373-5346}, pages = {371 -- 374}, year = {1994}, language = {en} }
