Diese Dekompensationen lassen sich bisher im heimischen Umfeld nicht durch Messwerte vorhersehen. Dieses Ger{\"a}t bestimmt die Fl{\"u}ssigkeitsansammlungen in der Lunge, die ein mittelfristiges Symptom einer Dekompensation sind. Außerdem misst es {\"u}ber einen Hautsensor die im Schweiß enthaltene Menge eines Proteins, das bei {\"U}berdehnung des Herzmuskels vermehrt im Blutplasma zu finden ist. So k{\"o}nnen Dekompensationen bis zu zwei Wochen vor einem akuten Ereignis detektiert und behandelt werden.

Research shows that training environments that adapt to users' preferences and performance can promote more effective learning. However, the observed results can hardly be traced back to specific adaptive measures but the whole new training approach. This study analyzes the effects of a combined point and leveling VR-based gamification system on assembly training targeting specific training outcomes and users' motivations. The Gamified-VR-Group with 26 subjects received the gamified training, and the Non-Gamified-VR-Group with 27 subjects received the alternative without gamified elements. Both groups conducted their VR training at least three times before assembling the actual structure. The study found that a level system that gradually increases the difficulty and error probability in VR can significantly lower real-world error rates, self-corrections, and support usages. According to our study, a high error occurrence at the highest training level reduced the Gamified-VR-Group's feeling of competence compared to the Non-Gamified-VR-Group, but at the same time also led to lower error probabilities in real-life. It is concluded that a level system with a variable task difficulty should be combined with carefully balanced positive and negative feedback messages. This way, better learning results, and an improved self-evaluation can be achieved while not causing significant impacts on the participants' feeling of competence.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{EggertKriska2022, author = {Eggert, Mathias and Kriska, Melina}, title = {Gamification for software development processes - relevant affordances and design principles}, series = {Proceedings of the 55th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 55th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences}, publisher = {HICSS Publishing}, address = {Honolulu}, isbn = {978-0-9981331-5-7}, doi = {10.24251/HICSS.2022.200}, pages = {1614 -- 1623}, year = {2022}, abstract = {A Gamified Information System (GIS) implements game concepts and elements, such as affordances and game design principles to motivate people.

Such applications rely on the application of a static offset magnetic field, which is generated traditionally with an electromagnet. Such a setup requires a current source, as well as passive or active cooling strategies, which directly sets a limitation based on the portability aspect that is desired for point of care (POC) monitoring applications. In this work, a measurement head is introduced that involves the utilization of two ring-shaped permanent magnets to generate a static offset magnetic field. A steel cylinder in the ring bores homogenizes the field. By variation of the distance between the ring magnets and of the thickness of the steel cylinder, the magnitude of the magnetic field at the sample position can be adjusted. Furthermore, the measurement setup is compared to the electromagnet offset module based on measured signals and temperature behavior.}, language = {en} } @masterthesis{Lenz2022, type = {Bachelor Thesis}, author = {Lenz, Lena}, title = {Frauen sind der Boss : eine Kampagne f{\"u}r mehr Gleichberechtigung in F{\"u}hrungspositionen}, publisher = {FH Aachen}, address = {Aachen}, school = {Fachhochschule Aachen}, pages = {93 Seiten}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Man k{\"o}nnte vermuten, dass in einem so weit entwickelten Land wie Deutschland Geschlechterdiskriminierung bereits erfolgreich {\"u}berwunden wurde - doch das entspricht nicht der Realit{\"a}t.

This technology is expected to lead to substantial advances in flight performance, energy efficiency, reliability, safety, noise reduction, and exhaust emissions. Nevertheless, any consumed energy results in heat or carbon dioxide emissions and limited electric energy storage capabilities suppress commercial use. Therefore, the significant challenges to achieving eco-efficient aviation are increased aircraft efficiency, the development of new energy storage technologies, and the optimization of flight operations. Two major approaches for higher eco-efficiency are identified: The first one, is to take horizontal and vertical atmospheric motion phenomena into account. Where, in particular, atmospheric waves hold exciting potential. The second one is the use of the regeneration ability of electric aircraft. The fusion of both strategies is expected to improve efficiency. The objective is to reduce energy consumption during flight while not neglecting commercial usability and convenient flight characteristics. Therefore, an optimized control problem based on a general aviation class aircraft has to be developed and validated by flight experiments. The formulated approach enables a development of detailed knowledge of the potential and limitations of optimizing flight missions, considering the capability of regeneration and atmospheric influences to increase efficiency and range.}, language = {en} }
