This oven is designed to meet the needs of rural residents, including Urban, which requires stable cooking temperatures above 200 °C. The cooking by this cooker is based on the concentration of the sun's rays on a glass vacuum tube and heating of the oil circulate in a big tube, located inside the glass tube. Through two small tubes, associated with large tube, the heated oil, rise and heats the pot of cooking pot containing the food to be cooked (capacity of 5 kg). This cooker is designed in Germany and extensively tested in Morocco for use by the inhabitants who use wood from forests. During a sunny day, having a maximum solar radiation around 720 W/m2 and temperature ambient around 26 °C, maximum temperatures recorded of the small tube, the large tube and the center of the pot are respectively: 370 °C, 270 °C and 260 °C. The cooking process with food at high (fries, ..), we show that the cooking oil temperature rises to 200 °C, after 1 h of heating, the cooking is done at a temperature of 120 °C for 20 min. These temperatures are practically stable following variations and decreases in the intensity of irradiance during the day. The comparison of these results with those of the literature shows an improvement of 30-50 \% on the maximum value of the temperature with a heat storage that could reach 60 min of autonomy. All the results obtained show the good functioning of the PSTC and the feasibility of cooking food at high temperature (>200 °C).}, language = {en} } @article{DrummEmhardtKoketal.2020, author = {Drumm, Christian and Emhardt, Selina N. and Kok, Ellen M. and Jarodzka, Halzka and Brand-Gruwel, Saskia and van Gog, Tamara}, title = {How Experts Adapt Their Gaze Behavior When Modeling a Task to Novices}, series = {Cognitive science}, volume = {44}, journal = {Cognitive science}, number = {9}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1551-6709}, doi = {10.1111/cogs.12893}, pages = {26}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Domain experts regularly teach novice students how to perform a task. This often requires them to adjust their behavior to the less knowledgeable audience and, hence, to behave in a more didactic manner. Eye movement modeling examples (EMMEs) are a contemporary educational tool for displaying experts' (natural or didactic) problem-solving behavior as well as their eye movements to learners. While research on expert-novice communication mainly focused on experts' changes in explicit, verbal communication behavior, it is as yet unclear whether and how exactly experts adjust their nonverbal behavior. This study first investigated whether and how experts change their eye movements and mouse clicks (that are displayed in EMMEs) when they perform a task naturally versus teach a task didactically. Programming experts and novices initially debugged short computer codes in a natural manner. We first characterized experts' natural problem-solving behavior by contrasting it with that of novices. Then, we explored the changes in experts' behavior when being subsequently instructed to model their task solution didactically. Experts became more similar to novices on measures associated with experts' automatized processes (i.e., shorter fixation durations, fewer transitions between code and output per click on the run button when behaving didactically). This adaptation might make it easier for novices to follow or imitate the expert behavior. In contrast, experts became less similar to novices for measures associated with more strategic behavior (i.e., code reading linearity, clicks on run button) when behaving didactically.}, language = {en} } @article{OrzadaFiedlerBitzetal.2020, author = {Orzada, Stephan and Fiedler, Thomas M. and Bitz, Andreas and Ladd, Mark E. and Quick, Harald H.}, title = {Local SAR compression with overestimation control to reduce maximum relative SAR overestimation and improve multi-channel RF array performance}, series = {Magnetic Resonance Materials in Physics, Biology and Medicine}, journal = {Magnetic Resonance Materials in Physics, Biology and Medicine}, number = {34 (2021)}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Heidelberg}, isbn = {1352-8661}, doi = {10.1007/s10334-020-00890-0}, pages = {153 -- 164}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Objective In local SAR compression algorithms, the overestimation is generally not linearly dependent on actual local SAR. This can lead to large relative overestimation at low actual SAR values, unnecessarily constraining transmit array performance. Method Two strategies are proposed to reduce maximum relative overestimation for a given number of VOPs. The first strategy uses an overestimation matrix that roughly approximates actual local SAR; the second strategy uses a small set of pre-calculated VOPs as the overestimation term for the compression. Result Comparison with a previous method shows that for a given maximum relative overestimation the number of VOPs can be reduced by around 20\% at the cost of a higher absolute overestimation at high actual local SAR values. Conclusion The proposed strategies outperform a previously published strategy and can improve the SAR compression where maximum relative overestimation constrains the performance of parallel transmission.}, language = {en} } @article{MuschallikKippReckeretal.2020, author = {Muschallik, Lukas and Kipp, Carina Ronja and Recker, Inga and Bongaerts, Johannes and Pohl, Martina and Gelissen, Melanie and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Selmer, Thorsten and Siegert, Petra}, title = {Synthesis of α-hydroxy ketones and vicinal diols with the Bacillus licheniformis DSM 13T butane-2, 3-diol dehydrogenase}, series = {Journal of Biotechnology}, volume = {202}, journal = {Journal of Biotechnology}, number = {Vol. 324}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {2590-1559}, doi = {10.1016/j.jbiotec.2020.09.016}, pages = {61 -- 70}, year = {2020}, abstract = {The enantioselective synthesis of α-hydroxy ketones and vicinal diols is an intriguing field because of the broad applicability of these molecules.

Here, we investigate the biocatalytic properties of the meso-butanediol dehydrogenase from Bacillus licheniformis DSM 13T (BlBDH). The encoding gene was cloned with an N-terminal StrepII-tag and recombinantly overexpressed in E. coli. BlBDH is highly active towards several non-physiological diketones and α-hydroxyketones with varying aliphatic chain lengths or even containing phenyl moieties. By adjusting the reaction parameters in biotransformations the formation of either the α-hydroxyketone intermediate or the diol can be controlled.}, language = {en} } @article{ValeroChansonBung2020, author = {Valero, Daniel and Chanson, Hubert and Bung, Daniel Bernhard}, title = {Robust estimators for free surface turbulence characterization: A stepped spillway application}, series = {Flow Measurement and Instrumentation}, volume = {76}, journal = {Flow Measurement and Instrumentation}, number = {Art. 101809}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0955-5986}, doi = {10.1016/j.flowmeasinst.2020.101809}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Robust estimators are parameters insensitive to the presence of outliers. However, they presume the shape of the variables' probability density function. This study exemplifies the sensitivity of turbulent quantities to the use of classic and robust estimators and the presence of outliers in turbulent flow depth time series. A wide range of turbulence quantities was analysed based upon a stepped spillway case study, using flow depths sampled with Acoustic Displacement Meters as the flow variable of interest. The studied parameters include: the expected free surface level, the expected fluctuation intensity, the depth skewness, the autocorrelation timescales, the vertical velocity fluctuation intensity, the perturbations celerity and the one-dimensional free surface turbulence spectrum. Three levels of filtering were utilised prior to applying classic and robust estimators, showing that comparable robustness can be obtained either using classic estimators together with an intermediate filtering technique or using robust estimators instead, without any filtering technique.}, language = {en} } @article{UlmerBraunChengetal.2020, author = {Ulmer, Jessica and Braun, Sebastian and Cheng, Chi-Tsun and Dowey, Steve and Wollert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Human-Centered Gamification Framework for Manufacturing Systems}, series = {Procedia CIRP}, volume = {93}, journal = {Procedia CIRP}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {2212-8271}, doi = {10.1016/j.procir.2020.04.076}, pages = {670 -- 675}, year = {2020}, abstract = {While bringing new opportunities, the Industry 4.0 movement also imposes new challenges to the manufacturing industry and all its stakeholders.

It owes its popularity to its simplicity and computational efficiency, rather than its ability to represent specific polymers species and conditions. Here we show that by tuning the chain stiffness it is possible to adapt the KG model to model melts of real polymers. In particular, we provide mapping relations from KG to SI units for a wide range of commodity polymers. The connection between the experimental and the KG melts is made at the Kuhn scale, i.e., at the crossover from the chemistry-specific small scale to the universal large scale behavior. We expect Kuhn scale-mapped KG models to faithfully represent universal properties dominated by the large scale conformational statistics and dynamics of flexible polymers. In particular, we observe very good agreement between entanglement moduli of our KG models and the experimental moduli of the target polymers.}, language = {en} } @article{MeyerHaenelBeehetal.2020, author = {Meyer, S. and H{\"a}nel, Matthias and Beeh, B. and Dittmann-Gabriel, S{\"o}ren and Dluhosch, R. and May, Martin and Herrmann, Ulf}, title = {Multifunktionaler thermischer Stromspeicher f{\"u}r die Strom- und W{\"a}rmeversorgung der Industrie von morgen}, series = {ETG Journal / Energietechnische Gesellschaft im VDE (ETG)}, volume = {2020}, journal = {ETG Journal / Energietechnische Gesellschaft im VDE (ETG)}, number = {1}, issn = {2625-9907}, pages = {6 -- 9}, year = {2020}, language = {de} } @article{Olbertz2020, author = {Olbertz, Klaus}, title = {Jahresr{\"u}ckblick Arbeitsrecht 2019 : Gesetzes{\"a}nderungen und insbesondere im Zeichen des Befristungs- und Urlaubsrechts stehende h{\"o}chstrichterliche Rechtsprechung}, series = {NWB - Steuer- und Wirtschaftsrecht}, journal = {NWB - Steuer- und Wirtschaftsrecht}, number = {8}, publisher = {NWB-Verl.}, address = {Herne}, issn = {0028-3460}, pages = {557 -- 569}, year = {2020}, abstract = {In Fortschreibung des Jahresr{\"u}ckblicks 2018 (Olbertz, NWB 5/2019 S. 266 ) skizziert der vorliegende Beitrag die j{\"u}ngsten nennenswerten Entwicklungen im Arbeitsrecht des Jahres 2019.
