Opportunities for renewable energy and other energy-saving features will be assessed. This project focuses on objectives that are of particular interest for the design of new steel constructions regarding energy efficiency. ETHICS investigates the as-built performance by on-site tests regarding air tightness and heat transfer properties of the building envelope and by monitoring the energy consumption and thermal comfort of selected up-to-date steel buildings. As energy efficiency is a key requirement for design and construction of buildings in the future, this project provides well-founded scientific data, which prove the high energy performance of current steel constructions and work out details for further improvements to maintain and extend the position of steel products in the construction sector.}, language = {en} } @techreport{KestiMononenLautsoetal.2015, author = {Kesti, Jyrki and Mononen, Tarmo and Lautso, Petteri and D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Reger, Vitali and Holopainen, R. and Jung, N. and Shemeikka, J. and Nieminen, J. and Reda, F. and Lawson, Mark and Botti, Andrea and Hall, R. and Zold, A. and Buday, T.}, title = {Zero energy solutions for multifunctional steel intensive commercial buildings (ZEMUSIC) - EUR 27627}, publisher = {Publications Office of the European Union}, address = {Luxembourg}, organization = {European Commission}, isbn = {978-92-79-54071-4}, issn = {1831-9424}, doi = {10.2777/111520}, pages = {146 Seiten}, year = {2015}, abstract = {The broad commercial objective of this project was the sustainable value creation in steel building technology by addressing the ways in which significant energy reductions can be made in the operation phase of multi-storey commercial buildings. A review on energy efficient commercial buildings in Europe has been carried out consisting of several case studies from different countries. The project included development of zero-energy concepts for reducing energy demand as well as concepts for heating, cooling and ventilation systems by utilising renewable energy sources in three different climates. Also alternative structural frame solutions were developed and analyzed in respect of structural and MEP (mechanical, electrical and plumbing solutions) features. An innovative long span floor system with integrated MEP routings promises a cost effective alternative for sophisticated ventilation distribution and radiant heating and cooling systems, allowing for high energy efficiency and high quality interior climate. The report includes also review of best architectural practices for integrated renewable energy solutions including different design strategies for building facades of zero energy buildings. Interesting results and design basis are also presented for steel energy pile concept, where structural foundation piles are utilized for ground energy harvesting. Life cycle cost calculations for near zero energy office building based on developed technologies show that a near zero energy construction is also profitable. The results and work methods of the project have been summarized in the form of design guidance that offers designers the knowledge gained in a form that can be easily understood.}, language = {en} } @article{FiedlerLaddBitz2017, author = {Fiedler, Thomas M. and Ladd, Mark E. and Bitz, Andreas}, title = {SAR Simulations \& Safety}, series = {NeuroImage}, journal = {NeuroImage}, number = {Epub ahead of print}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1053-8119}, doi = {10.1016/j.neuroimage.2017.03.035}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{NoureddineKraffLaddetal.2017, author = {Noureddine, Yacine and Kraff, Oliver and Ladd, Mark E. and Wrede, Karsten H. and Chen, Bixia and Quick, Harald H. and Schaefers, Gregor and Bitz, Andreas}, title = {In vitro and in silico assessment of RF-induced heating around intracranial aneurysm clips at 7 Tesla}, series = {Magnetic Resonance in Medicine}, journal = {Magnetic Resonance in Medicine}, number = {Early view}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1522-2594}, doi = {10.1002/mrm.26650}, pages = {14 Seiten}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{FiedlerLaddBitz2017, author = {Fiedler, Thomas M. and Ladd, Mark E. and Bitz, Andreas}, title = {RF safety assessment of a bilateral four-channel transmit/receive 7 Tesla breast coil: SAR versus temperature limits}, series = {Medical Physics}, volume = {44}, journal = {Medical Physics}, number = {1}, doi = {10.1002/mp.12034}, pages = {143 -- 157}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{LagemaatVosMaasetal.2014, author = {Lagemaat, Miriam W. and Vos, Eline K. and Maas, Marnix C. and Bitz, Andreas and Orzada, Stephan and Uden, Mark J. van and Kobus, Thiele and Heerschap, Arend and Scheenen, Tom W.

Materials and Methods In this institutional review board-approved study, 15 patients with biopsy-proven prostate cancer underwent T₂-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and 3-dimensional ³¹P MRSI at 7 T. Voxels were selected at the tumor location, in normal-appearing peripheral zone tissue, normal-appearing transition zone tissue, and in the base of the prostate close to the seminal vesicles. Phosphorus metabolite ratios were determined and compared between tissue types. Results Signals of phosphoethanolamine (PE) and phosphocholine (PC) were present and well resolved in most ³¹P spectra in the prostate. Glycerophosphocholine signals were observable in 43\% of the voxels in malignant tissue, but in only 10\% of the voxels in normal-appearing tissue away from the seminal vesicles. In many spectra, independent of tissue type, 2 peaks resonated in the chemical shift range of inorganic phosphate, possibly representing 2 separate pH compartments. The PC/PE ratio in the seminal vesicles was highly elevated compared with the prostate in 5 patients. A considerable overlap of ³¹P metabolite ratios was found between prostate cancer and normal-appearing prostate tissue, preventing direct discrimination of these tissues. The only 2 patients with high Gleason scores tumors (≥4+5) presented with high PC and glycerophosphocholine levels in their cancer lesions. Conclusions Phosphorus MRSI at 7 T shows distinct features of phospholipid metabolites in the prostate gland and its surrounding structures. In this exploratory study, no differences in ³¹P metabolite ratios were observed between prostate cancer and normal-appearing prostate tissue possibly because of the partial volume effects of small tumor foci in large MRSI voxels.}, language = {en} } @article{PyschnyDoeringFeldmann2014, author = {Pyschny, D. and D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Feldmann, M.}, title = {Ermittlung der thermischen Leistungsf{\"a}higkeit des neuartigen multifunktionalen Verbunddeckensystems InaDeck}, series = {Bauingenieur : die richtungsweisende Zeitschrift im Bauingenieurswesen}, volume = {89}, journal = {Bauingenieur : die richtungsweisende Zeitschrift im Bauingenieurswesen}, number = {3}, publisher = {VDI Fachmedien}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {0005-6650}, pages = {116 -- 124}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @incollection{FeldmannDoeringPyschny2016, author = {Feldmann, M. and D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Pyschny, D.}, title = {Floor systems; Sustainabilty analyses and assessments of steel bridges}, series = {Sustainable steel buildings : a practical guide for structures and envelopes}, booktitle = {Sustainable steel buildings : a practical guide for structures and envelopes}, publisher = {Wiley Blackwell}, address = {Chichester, West Sussex}, isbn = {978-1-118-74079-8 (PDF)}, pages = {198 -- 223}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @book{Timme2017, author = {Timme, Michael}, title = {BGB Crashkurs: der sichere Weg durch die Pr{\"u}fung}, edition = {4.
