This paper firstly presents the structural analysis performed on the sail to understand its elastic behavior. The results are then used in attitude and orbital simulations. The model considers the main forces and torques that a satellite experiences in low-Earth orbit coupled with the sail deformation. Doing the simulations for varying initial conditions in attitude and rotation rate, the results show initial states to avoid and maximum rotation rates reached for correct and faulty deployment of the sail. Lastly comparisons with the classic flat sail model are carried out to test the hypothesis that the elastic behavior does play a role in the attitude and orbital behavior of the sail}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PirovanoSeefeldtDachwaldetal.2015, author = {Pirovano, Laura and Seefeldt, Patric and Dachwald, Bernd and Noomen, Ron}, title = {Attitude and Orbital Dynamics Modeling for an Uncontrolled Solar-Sail Experiment in Low-Earth Orbit}, series = {25th International Symposium on Spaceflight Dynamics, 2015, Munich, Germany}, booktitle = {25th International Symposium on Spaceflight Dynamics, 2015, Munich, Germany}, pages = {15 S.}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Tepecik2024, author = {Tepecik, Atakan}, title = {AstroBioLab: Review of technical and bioanalytical approaches}, series = {YRA MedTech Symposium (2024)}, booktitle = {YRA MedTech Symposium (2024)}, editor = {Digel, Ilya and Staat, Manfred and Trzewik, J{\"u}rgen and Sielemann, Stefanie and Erni, Daniel and Zylka, Waldemar}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Duisburg-Essen}, address = {Duisburg}, organization = {MedTech Symposium}, isbn = {978-3-940402-65-3}, doi = {10.17185/duepublico/81475}, pages = {33 -- 34}, year = {2024}, abstract = {This study presents the concept of AstroBioLab, an autonomous astrobiological field laboratory tailored for the exploration of (sub)glacial habitats.

Given that climatic and demographic influences will pose further challenges for these infrastructures in the future, the resilience of water supply systems, i.e. their ability to withstand and recover from disruptions, has recently become a subject of research. To assess the resilience of a WDS, different graph-theoretical approaches exist. Next to general metrics characterizing the network topology, also hydraulic and technical restrictions have to be taken into account. In this work, the resilience of an exemplary water distribution network of a major German city is assessed, and a Mixed-Integer Program is presented which allows to assess the impact of capacity adaptations on its resilience.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NiemuellerLakemeyerFerrein2013, author = {Niem{\"u}ller, Tim and Lakemeyer, Gerhard and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {Aspects of integrating diverse software into robotic systems extended abstract}, series = {ICRA 2013 - 8th Workshop on Software Development and Integration in Robotics (SDIR), Karlsruhe, Germany}, booktitle = {ICRA 2013 - 8th Workshop on Software Development and Integration in Robotics (SDIR), Karlsruhe, Germany}, pages = {1 -- 2}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchaenzleAltherrEdereretal.2015, author = {Sch{\"a}nzle, Christian and Altherr, Lena and Ederer, Thorsten and Lorenz, Ulf and Pelz, Peter F.}, title = {As good as it can be: Ventilation system design by a combined scaling and discrete optimization method}, series = {Proceedings of FAN 2015}, booktitle = {Proceedings of FAN 2015}, pages = {1 -- 11}, year = {2015}, abstract = {The understanding that optimized components do not automatically lead to energy-efficient systems sets the attention from the single component on the entire technical system.

We illustrate our optimization approach in a case study for the design of a ventilation system with the ambition to minimize the energy consumption for a temporal distribution of diverse load demands.
