The new coefficient is derived from an aerodynamic analysis of ten different unmanned aircraft used for surveillance, reconnaissance, and search and rescue missions. The aircraft is simulated using a validated unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes approach. The UAV's parasitic drag is significantly influenced by the presence of miscellaneous components like fixed landing gears or electro-optical sensor turrets. These components are responsible for almost half of an unmanned aircraft's total parasitic drag. The new equivalent skin friction coefficient accounts for these effects and is significantly higher compared to other aircraft categories. It is used to initially size an unmanned aircraft for a typical reconnaissance mission. The improved parasitic drag estimation yields a much heavier unmanned aircraft when compared to the sizing results using available drag data of manned aircraft.}, language = {en} } @article{RibitschKarlBirnerGruenbergeretal.2010, author = {Ribitsch, Doris and Karl, Wolfgang and Birner-Gruenberger, Ruth and Gruber, Karl and Eiteljoerg, Inge and Remler, Peter and Wieland, Susanne and Siegert, Petra and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and Schwab, Helmut}, title = {C-terminal truncation of a metagenome-derived detergent protease for effective expression in E. coli}, series = {Journal of biotechnology}, volume = {150}, journal = {Journal of biotechnology}, number = {3}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-4863 (E-Journal); 0168-1656 (Print)}, doi = {10.1016/j.jbiotec.2010.09.947}, pages = {408 -- 416}, year = {2010}, abstract = {Recently, a new alkaline protease named HP70 showing highest homology to extracellular serine proteases of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Xanthomonas campestris was found in the course of a metagenome screening for detergent proteases (Niehaus et al., submitted for publication). Attempts to efficiently express the enzyme in common expression hosts had failed. This study reports on the realization of overexpression in Escherichia coli after structural modification of HP70. Modelling of HP70 resulted in a two-domain structure, comprising the catalytic domain and a C-terminal domain which includes about 100 amino acids. On the basis of the modelled structure the enzyme was truncated by deletion of most of the C-terminal domain yielding HP70-C477. This structural modification allowed effective expression of active enzyme using E. coli BL21-Gold as the host. Specific activity of HP70-C477 determined with suc-l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Pro-l-Phe-p-nitroanilide as the substrate was 30 ± 5 U/mg compared to 8 ± 1 U/mg of the native enzyme. HP70-C477 was most active at 40 °C and pH 7-11; these conditions are prerequisite for a potential application as detergent enzyme. Determination of kinetic parameters at 40 °C and pH = 9.5 resulted in KM = 0.23 ± 0.01 mM and kcat = 167.5 ± 3.6 s⁻¹. MS-analysis of peptide fragments obtained from incubation of HP70 and HP70-C477 with insulin B indicated that the C-terminal domain influences the cleavage preferences of the enzyme.

Students were shown that in addition to simple mixtures handled in theoretical classes, the composition of complex drug products can also be uncovered. By comparing the performance of different techniques, students deepen their understanding and compare the efficiency of analytical methods in the context of complex mixtures.

Consequently, within the coal industry, there is a growing recognition of the potential of microbial applications in fostering innovative technologies. Microbial-based coal solubilization, coal beneficiation, and coal dust suppression are green alternatives to traditional thermochemical and leaching technologies and better meet the need for ecologically sound and economically viable choices. Surfactant-mediated approaches have emerged as powerful tools for modeling, simulation, and optimization of coal-microbial systems and continue to gain prominence in clean coal fuel production, particularly in microbiological co-processing, conversion, and beneficiation. Surfactants (surface-active agents) are amphiphilic compounds that can reduce surface tension and enhance the solubility of hydrophobic molecules. A wide range of surfactant properties can be achieved by either directly influencing microbial growth factors, stimulants, and substrates or indirectly serving as frothers, collectors, and modifiers in the processing and utilization of coal. This review highlights the significant biotechnological potential of surfactants by providing a thorough overview of their involvement in coal biodegradation, bioprocessing, and biobeneficiation, acknowledging their importance as crucial steps in coal consumption.}, language = {en} } @article{FreyerKemptKloeser2024, author = {Freyer, Nils and Kempt, Hendrik and Kl{\"o}ser, Lars}, title = {Easy-read and large language models: on the ethical dimensions of LLM-based text simplification}, series = {Ethics and Information Technology}, volume = {26}, journal = {Ethics and Information Technology}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Dortrecht}, issn = {1388-1957 (Print)}, doi = {10.1007/s10676-024-09792-4}, pages = {10 Seiten}, year = {2024}, abstract = {The production of easy-read and plain language is a challenging task, requiring well-educated experts to write context-dependent simplifications of texts.

This paper investigates process-side influencing factors to avoid resulting residual stresses in SLM components made of 316L. The aim is to develop a strategy to build up SLM components as stress-free as possible in order to join them as profitably as possible with a downstream welding process.

The underlying technologies like cyber-physical systems (CPS), big data, collaborative robotics, additive manufacturing or artificial intelligence offer huge potentials for the optimization and evolution of production systems. However, many manufacturing companies struggle to implement these technologies. This can only in part be attributed to the lack of skilled personal within these companies or a missing digitalization strategy.

Although this infiltration procedure has been widely applied, it is performed empirically and little is known about the flow characteristics of cement during the injection process. We present a theoretical and experimental approach to investigate the intertrabecular bone permeability during the infiltration procedure. The cement permeability was considered to be dependent on time, bone porosity, and cement viscosity in our analysis. In order to determine the time-dependent permeability, ten cancellous bone cores were harvested from osteoporotic vertebrae, infiltrated with acrylic cement at a constant flow rate, and the pressure drop across the cores during the infiltration was measured. The viscosity dependence of the permeability was determined based on published experimental data. The theoretical model for the permeability as a function of bone porosity and time was then fit to the testing data. Our findings suggest that the intertrabecular bone permeability depends strongly on time. For instance, the initial permeability (60.89 mm4/N.s) reduced to approximately 63\% of its original value within 18 seconds. This study is the first to analyze cement flow through osteoporotic bone. The theoretical and experimental models provided in this paper are generic. Thus, they can be used to systematically study and optimize the infiltration process for clinical practice.}, subject = {Osteoporose}, language = {en} } @article{HajAyedKustererFunkeetal.2017, author = {Haj-Ayed, Anis and Kusterer, Karsten and Funke, Harald and Keinz, Jan and Bohn, Dieter E.}, title = {CFD based exploration of the dry-low-NOx hydrogen micromix combustion technology at increased energy densities}, series = {Propulsion and Power Research}, volume = {6}, journal = {Propulsion and Power Research}, number = {1}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, isbn = {2212-540X}, doi = {10.1016/j.jppr.2017.01.005}, pages = {15 -- 24}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{HajAyedKustererFunkeetal.2015, author = {Haj-Ayed, Anis and Kusterer, Karsten A. and Funke, Harald and Keinz, Jan and Striegan, Constantin and Bohn, Dieter E.}, title = {Experimental and numerical investigations of the dry-low-NOx hydrogen micromix combustion chamber of an industrial gas turbine}, series = {Propulsion and power research}, volume = {Vol. 4}, journal = {Propulsion and power research}, number = {Iss. 3}, issn = {2212-540X}, doi = {10.1016/j.jppr.2015.07.005}, pages = {123 -- 131}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{HajAyedKustererFunkeetal.2015, author = {Haj-Ayed, Anis and Kusterer, Karsten, A. and Funke, Harald and Keinz, Jan and Striegan, Constantin and Bohn, Dieter E.}, title = {Improvement study for the dry-low-NOx hydrogen micromix combustion technology}, series = {Propulsion and power research}, volume = {Vol. 4}, journal = {Propulsion and power research}, number = {Iss. 3}, issn = {2212-540X}, doi = {10.1016/j.jppr.2015.07.003}, pages = {132 -- 140}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{EdipSesovButenwegetal.2018, author = {Edip, Kemal and Sesov, V.latko and Butenweg, Christoph and Bojadjieva, Julijana}, title = {Development of coupled numerical model for simulation of multiphase soil}, series = {Computers and Geotechnics}, volume = {96}, journal = {Computers and Geotechnics}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0266-352X}, doi = {10.1016/j.compgeo.2017.08.016}, pages = {118 -- 131}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In this paper, a coupled multiphase model considering both non-linearities of water retention curves and solid state modeling is proposed.

However, accurate and reliable parking slot detection (PSD) remains a challenge, especially in the low-light conditions typical of indoor car parks. Existing camera-based approaches struggle with these conditions and require sensor fusion to determine parking slot occupancy. This paper proposes a parking slot detection (PSD) algorithm which utilizes the intensity of a LiDAR point cloud to detect the markings of perpendicular parking slots. LiDAR-based approaches offer robustness in low-light environments and can directly determine occupancy status using 3D information. The proposed PSD algorithm first segments the ground plane from the LiDAR point cloud and detects the main axis along the driving direction using a random sample consensus algorithm (RANSAC). The remaining ground point cloud is filtered by a dynamic Otsu's threshold, and the markings of parking slots are detected in multiple windows along the driving direction separately. Hypotheses of parking slots are generated between the markings, which are cross-checked with a non-ground point cloud to determine the occupancy status. Test results showed that the proposed algorithm is robust in detecting perpendicular parking slots in well-marked car parks with high precision, low width error, and low variance. The proposed algorithm is designed in such a way that future adoption for parallel parking slots and combination with free-space-based detection approaches is possible. This solution addresses the limitations of camera-based systems and enhances PSD accuracy and reliability in challenging lighting conditions.}, language = {en} } @article{BoehnischBraunMarzoccaetal.2024, author = {B{\"o}hnisch, Nils and Braun, Carsten and Marzocca, Pierre and Muscarello, Vincenzo}, title = {Impact of aerodynamic interactions on aeroelastic stability of wing-propeller systems}, series = {Applied Sciences}, volume = {14}, journal = {Applied Sciences}, number = {19}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {2076-3417}, doi = {10.3390/app14198709}, year = {2024}, abstract = {This paper presents initial findings from aeroelastic studies conducted on a wing-propeller model, aimed at evaluating the impact of aerodynamic interactions on wing flutter mechanisms and overall aeroelastic performance. The flutter onset is assessed using a frequency-domain method. Mid-fidelity tools based on the time-domain approach are then exploited to account for the complex aerodynamic interaction between the propeller and the wing. Specifically, the open-source software DUST and MBDyn are leveraged for this purpose. The investigation covers both windmilling and thrusting conditions. During the trim process, adjustments to the collective pitch of the blades are made to ensure consistency across operational points. Time histories are then analyzed to pinpoint flutter onset, and corresponding frequencies and damping ratios are identified. The results reveal a marginal destabilizing effect of aerodynamic interaction on flutter speed, approximately 5\%. Notably, the thrusting condition demonstrates a greater destabilizing influence compared to the windmilling case. These comprehensive findings enhance the understanding of the aerodynamic behavior of such systems and offer valuable insights for early design predictions and the development of streamlined models for future endeavors.}, language = {en} } @article{HueningHeuermannWache2018, author = {H{\"u}ning, Felix and Heuermann, Holger and Wache, Franz-Josef}, title = {Wireless CAN without WLAN or Bluetooth}, series = {CAN Newsletter}, journal = {CAN Newsletter}, number = {December}, publisher = {CAN in Automation GmbH}, address = {N{\"u}rnberg}, pages = {44 -- 46}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In two developed concepts, dual-mode radio enables CAN participants to be integrated wirelessly into a CAN network.

The presence of the APTES-SA layer on sapphire powders was confirmed by thermogravimetric analyis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Using planar sapphire chips as substrates and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) as surface-sensitive tool, the sequence of individual layers was analyzed with respect to their chemical state, enabling the quantification of areal densities of the involved molecular units. Fluorescence microscopy was used to demonstrate the hybridization of fluorescently tagged target DNA to the probe DNA, including denaturation- and re-hybridization experiments. Due to its high thermal conductivity, synthetic sapphire is especially suitable as a chip material for the heat-transfer method, which was employed to distinguish complementary- and non-complementary DNA duplexes containing single-nucleotide polymorphisms.

Eight males (31.9 ± 4.7 years) walked at 75\% of the speed at which they typically transition to running, with 0\% and 30\% body weight support on a lower-body positive pressure treadmill. Gastrocnemius medialis fascicle lengths and pennation angles were measured via ultrasonography.

Series elastic element length was assessed using a muscle-tendon unit model. Depending on whether data were normally distributed, a paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test was performed to determine if body weight supported walking had any effects on joint kinematics and fascicle-series elastic element behavior. Walking with 30\% body weight support had no statistically significant effect on joint kinematics and peak series elastic element length. Furthermore, at the time when peak series elastic element length was achieved, and on average across the entire stance phase, muscle-tendon unit length, fascicle length, pennation angle, and fascicle velocity were unchanged with respect to body weight support.

The principal objective is to enhance the metabolic potential of glucose and CO2 utilization via the C4 pathway in order to synthesize succinic acid. We report on the development of an electro-bioreactor system to increase succinic acid production in a power-2-X approach. The use of activated carbon fibers as electrode surfaces and contact areas allows A. succinogenes to self-initiate biofilm formation. The integration of an electrical potential into the system shifts the redox balance from NAD+ to NADH, increasing the efficiency of metabolic processes. Mediators such as neutral red facilitate electron transfer within the system and optimize the redox reactions that are crucial for increased succinic acid production. Furthermore, the role of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in electron transfer was investigated. The electro-bioreactor system developed here was operated in batch mode for 48 h and showed improvements in succinic acid yield and concentration. In particular, a run with 100 µM neutral red and a voltage of -600 mV achieved a yield of 0.7 gsuccinate·gglucose-1. In the absence of neutral red, a higher yield of 0.72 gsuccinate·gglucose-1 was achieved, which represents an increase of 14\% compared to the control. When a potential of -600 mV was used in conjunction with 500 µg∙L-1 CNTs, a 21\% increase in succinate concentration was observed after 48 h. An increase of 33\% was achieved in the same batch by increasing the stirring speed. These results underscore the potential of the electro-bioreactor system to markedly enhance succinic acid production.}, language = {en} } @article{ZiemonsAuffrayBarbieretal.2005, author = {Ziemons, Karl and Auffray, Etiennette and Barbier, R{\´e}mi and Brandenburg, G. and Bruyndonckx, Peter and Choi, Yong and Christ, Daniela and Costes, Nicolas and D{\´e}clais, Yves R.

High sensitivity and high spatial resolution for the ClearPET camera is achieved by using a phoswich arrangement combining two different types of lutetium-based scintillator materials: LSO from CTI and LuYAP:Ce from the CCC (ISTC project). In a first ClearPET prototype, phoswich arrangements of 8×8 crystals of 2×2×10 mm3 are coupled to multi-channel photomultiplier tubes (Hamamatsu R7600). A unit of four PMTs arranged in-line represents one of 20 sectors of the ring design. The opening diameter of the ring is 120 mm, the axial detector length is 110 mm.The PMT pulses are digitized by free-running ADCs and digital data processing determines the gamma energy, the phoswich layer and even the exact pulse starting time, which is subsequently used for coincidence detection. The gantry allows rotation of the detector modules around the field of view. Preliminary data shows a correct identification of the crystal layer about (98±1)\%. Typically the energy resolution is (23.3±0.5)\% for the luyap layer and (15.4±0.4)\% for the lso layer. early studies showed the timing resolution of 2 ns FWHM and 4.8 ns FWTM. the intrinsic spatial resolution ranges from 1.37 mm to 1.61 mm full-width of half-maximum (FWHM) with a mean of 1.48 mm FWHM. further improvements in image and energy resolution are expected when the system geometry is fully modeled.}, language = {en} } @article{AuffrayBruyndonckxDevroedeetal.2004, author = {Auffray, Etiennette and Bruyndonckx, Peter and Devroede, Olivier and Fedorov, Andrei A. and Ziemons, Karl and Heinrichs, U. and Korjik, Mikhail V. and Krieguer, Magalie and Kuntner, Claudia and Lartizien, Carole and Lecoq, Paul R. and L{\´e}onard, Sophie M.

One of these technologies are multi-agent systems (MASs), where agents virtualize machines. However, the agent's actual performances in production environments can hardly be estimated as most research has been focusing on isolated projects and specific scenarios. We address this gap by implementing a highly connected and configurable reference model with quantifiable key performance indicators (KPIs) for production scheduling and routing in single-piece workflows. Furthermore, we propose an algorithm to optimize the search of extrema in highly connected distributed systems. The benefits, limits, and drawbacks of MASs and their performances are evaluated extensively by event-based simulations against the introduced model, which acts as a benchmark. Even though the performance of the proposed MAS is, on average, slightly lower than the reference system, the increased flexibility allows it to find new solutions and deliver improved factory-planning outcomes. Our MAS shows an emerging behavior by using flexible production techniques to correct errors and compensate for bottlenecks. This increased flexibility offers substantial improvement potential. The general model in this paper allows the transfer of the results to estimate real systems or other models.}, language = {en} } @article{WollertKruseVedral2007, author = {Wollert, J{\"o}rg F. and Kruse, Thomas and Vedral, Andreas}, title = {Die Kraft der drei Antennen : zuverl{\"a}ssige Funkkommunikation f{\"u}r die Automatisierungstechnik}, series = {Elektronik : Fachmedium f{\"u}r industrielle Anwender und Entwickler ; Sonderh.

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} } @article{UlmerBraunChengetal.2023, author = {Ulmer, Jessica and Braun, Sebastian and Cheng, Chi-Tsun and Dowey, Steve and Wollert, J{\"o}rg F.}, 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.
