The proposed system consists of a RGBD camera for surveillance of the common working area, an array of optical distance sensors to compensate shadowing effects of the RGBD camera and a laser range finder to detect the co-worker when approaching the work cell. The software for collision detection, path planning, robot control and predicting the behaviour of the co-worker is based on the Robot Operating System (ROS). A first prototype of the work cell shows that with advanced algorithms from the field of mobile robotics a very flexible safety concept can be realized: the robot not simply stops its movement when detecting a collision, but plans and executes an alternative path around the obstacle.}, language = {en} } @article{SchiffelsSelmer2015, author = {Schiffels, Johannes and Selmer, Thorsten}, title = {A flexible toolbox to study protein-assisted metalloenzyme assembly in vitro}, series = {Biotechnology and Bioengineering}, volume = {112}, journal = {Biotechnology and Bioengineering}, number = {11}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1097-0290}, doi = {10.1002/bit.25658}, pages = {2360 -- 2372}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{DantismTakenagaWagneretal.2015, author = {Dantism, S. and Takenaga, S. and Wagner, P. and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Light-addressable Potentiometric Sensor (LAPS) Combined with Multi-chamber Structures to Investigate the Metabolic Activity of Cells}, series = {Procedia Engineering}, volume = {120}, journal = {Procedia Engineering}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1877-7058}, doi = {10.1016/j.proeng.2015.08.647}, pages = {384 -- 387}, year = {2015}, abstract = {LAPS are field-effect-based potentiometric sensors which are able to monitor analyte concentrations in a spatially resolved manner.

The prediction of reservoir temperature and production behavior is crucial for success of the proposed geothermal doublet. This work presents the results of a study of the important geothermal and geohydrological issues for the doublet design. In the first phase of the study, the influences of the three-dimensional (3D) structures of anticlines and synclines on the temperature field were examined. A comprehensive petrophysical investigation was performed to build a large scale 3D-model of the reservoir. Several bottomhole temperatures (BHTs), as well as petrophysical logs were used to calibrate the model using thermal conductivity measurements on 50 samples from boreholes in different lithological units in the study area. Profiles and cross sections extracted from the calculated temperature field were used to study the temperature in the surrounding areas of the planned doublet. In the second phase of the project, a detailed 3D numerical reservoir model was set up, with the aim of predicting the evolution of the producer and injector temperatures, and the extent of the cooled area around the injector. The temperature model from the first phase provided the boundary conditions for the reservoir model. Hydraulic parameters for the target horizons, such as porosity and permeability, were taken from data available from the nearby exploration wells. The simulation results are encouraging as no significant thermal breakthrough is predicted. For the originally planned location of the producer, the extracted water temperature is predicted to be around 79 °C, with an almost negligible cooling in the first 50 years of production. When the producer is located shallower parts of the reservoir, the yield water temperatures is lower, starting at ≈76 °C and decreasing to ≈74 °C after 50 years of operation. This comparatively larger decrease in temperature with time is caused by the structural feature of the reservoir, namely a higher dip causes the cooler water to easily move downward. In view of the poor reservoir data, the reservoir simulation model is constructed to allow iterative updates using data assimilation during planned drilling, testing, and production phases. Measurements during an 8 h pumping test carried out in late 2010 suggest that a flow rate of 150 m3 h-1 is achievable. Fluid temperatures of 76.5 °C were measured, which is very close to the predicted value.}, language = {en} } @article{MottaghyDijkshoorn2012, author = {Mottaghy, Darius and Dijkshoorn, Lydia}, title = {Implementing an effective finite difference formulation for borehole heat exchangers into a heat and mass transport code}, series = {Renewable Energy}, volume = {45}, journal = {Renewable Energy}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0960-1481}, doi = {10.1016/j.renene.2012.02.013}, pages = {59 -- 71}, year = {2012}, abstract = {We present an effective finite difference formulation for implementing and modeling multiple borehole heat exchangers (BHE) in the general 3-D coupled heat and flow transport code SHEMAT. The BHE with arbitrary length can be either coaxial or double U-shaped. It is particularly suitable for modeling deep BHEs which contain varying pipe diameters and materials. Usually, in numerical simulations, a fine discretization of the BHE assemblage is required, due to the large geometric aspect ratios involved. This yields large models and long simulation times. The approach avoids this problem by considering heat transport between fluid and the soil through pipes and grout via thermal resistances. Therefore, the simulation time can be significantly reduced. The coupling with SHEMAT is realized by introducing an effective heat generation. Due to this connection, it is possible to consider heterogeneous geological models, as well as the influence of groundwater flow. This is particularly interesting when studying the long term behavior of a single BHE or a BHE field. Heating and cooling loads can enter the model with an arbitrary interval, e.g. from hourly to monthly values. When dealing with large BHE fields, computing times can be further significantly reduced by focusing on the temperature field around the BHEs, without explicitly modeling inlet and outlet temperatures. This allows to determine the possible migration of cold and warm plumes due to groundwater flow, which is of particular importance in urban areas with a high BHE installation density. The model is validated against the existing BHE modeling codes EWS and EED. A comparison with monitoring data from a deep BHE in Switzerland shows a good agreement.

To this end, we apply a stochastic modelling sequence, a Monte Carlo study, based on (i) creating an ensemble of possible realizations of a reservoir model, (ii) forward simulation of fluid flow and heat transport, and (iii) constraining post-processing using observed state variables. To generate the ensemble, we use the stochastic algorithm of Sequential Gaussian Simulation and test its potential fitting rock properties, such as thermal conductivity and permeability, of a synthetic reference model and—performing a corresponding forward simulation—state variables such as temperature. The ensemble yields probability distributions of rock properties and state variables at any location inside the reservoir. In addition, we perform a constraining post-processing in order to minimize the uncertainty of the obtained distributions by conditioning the ensemble to observed state variables, in this case temperature. This constraining post-processing works particularly well on systems dominated by fluid flow. The stochastic modelling sequence is applied to a large, steady-state 3-D heat flow model of a reservoir in The Hague, Netherlands. The spatial thermal conductivity distribution is simulated stochastically based on available logging data. Errors of bottom-hole temperatures provide thresholds for the constraining technique performed afterwards. This reduce the temperature uncertainty for the proposed target location significantly from 25 to 12 K (full distribution width) in a depth of 2300 m. Assuming a Gaussian shape of the temperature distribution, the standard deviation is 1.8 K. To allow a more comprehensive approach to quantify uncertainty, we also implement the stochastic simulation of boundary conditions and demonstrate this for the basal specific heat flow in the reservoir of The Hague. As expected, this results in a larger distribution width and hence, a larger, but more realistic uncertainty estimate. However, applying the constraining post-processing the uncertainty is again reduced to the level of the post-processing without stochastic boundary simulation. Thus, constraining post-processing is a suitable tool for reducing uncertainty estimates by observed state variables.}, language = {en} } @article{RathMottaghy2007, author = {Rath, V. and Mottaghy, Darius}, title = {Smooth inversion for ground surface temperature histories: estimating the optimum regularization parameter by generalized cross-validation}, series = {Geophysical Journal International}, volume = {171}, journal = {Geophysical Journal International}, number = {3}, issn = {1365-246X}, doi = {10.1111/j.1365-246X.2007.03587.x}, pages = {1440 -- 1448}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{KrebsbachSchillerBrunneretal.2006, author = {Krebsbach, M. and Schiller, C. and Brunner, D. and G{\"u}nther, G. and Hegglin, M.

When humans participate in a meeting with the help of video conferencing tools, it is crucial that they are able to follow the conversation both with acoustic and visual input. To this end, we design and implement a video conferencing tool robot that uses binaural sound source localization as its main source to autonomously orient towards the currently talking speaker. To increase robustness of the acoustic cue against noise we supplement the sound localization with a source detection stage. Also, we include a simple onset detector to retain fast response times. Since we only use two microphones, we are confronted with ambiguities on whether a source is in front or behind the device. We resolve these ambiguities with the help of face detection and additional moves. We tailor the system to our target scenarios in experiments with a four minute scripted conversation. In these experiments we evaluate the influence of different system settings on the responsiveness and accuracy of the device.}, language = {en} } @article{FateriGebhardt2015, author = {Fateri, Miranda and Gebhardt, Andreas}, title = {Additive manufactured mechanical disentanglement lock}, series = {RTejournal - Forum f{\"u}r Rapid Technologie}, volume = {12}, journal = {RTejournal - Forum f{\"u}r Rapid Technologie}, publisher = {Fachhochschule Aachen}, address = {Aachen}, issn = {1614-0923}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0009-2-42147}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GrossmannGabrielliHerdrichetal.2015, author = {Großmann, Agnes and Gabrielli, Roland Antonius and Herdrich, Georg and Fasoulas, Stefanos and Schnauffer, Peter and Middendorf, Peter and Fateri, Miranda and Gebhardt, Andreas}, title = {Overview of the MultiRob 3D Lunar Industrial Development Project}, series = {Conference Contribution for the 30th ISTS, Kobe, Japan, 04.07.-10.07.2015}, booktitle = {Conference Contribution for the 30th ISTS, Kobe, Japan, 04.07.-10.07.2015}, pages = {8 S.}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{OberlaenderJildehKirchneretal.2015, author = {Oberl{\"a}nder, Jan and Jildeh, Zaid B. and Kirchner, Patrick and Wendeler, Luisa and Bromm, Alexander and Iken, Heiko and Wagner, Patrick and Keusgen, Michael and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Study of Interdigitated Electrode Arrays Using Experiments and Finite Element Models for the Evaluation of Sterilization Processes}, series = {Sensors}, volume = {15}, journal = {Sensors}, number = {10}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {1424-8220}, doi = {10.3390/s151026115}, pages = {26115 -- 26127}, year = {2015}, abstract = {In this work, a sensor to evaluate sterilization processes with hydrogen peroxide vapor has been characterized.

Especially, when applied in vapour phase, it has shown high potential of microbial inactivation. In addition, it offers a high environmental compatibility compared to other chemical sterilisation agents, as it decomposes into oxygen and water, respectively. Due to a lack in sensory detection possibilities, a continuous monitoring of the H2O2 concentration was recently not available. Instead, the sterilisation efficacy is validated using microbiological tests. However, progresses in the development of calorimetric gas sensors during the last 7 years have made it possible to monitor the H2O2 concentration during operation. This chapter deals with the fundamentals of calorimetric gas sensing with special focus on the detection of gaseous hydrogen peroxide. A sensor principle based on a calorimetric differential set-up is described. Special emphasis is given to the sensor design with respect to the operational requirements under field conditions. The state-of-the-art regarding a sensor set-up for the on-line monitoring and secondly, a miniaturised sensor for in-line monitoring are summarised. Furthermore, alternative detection methods and a novel multi-sensor system for the characterisation of aseptic sterilisation processes are described.}, language = {en} } @article{NachtrodtTietschMostaccietal.2014, author = {Nachtrodt, Frederik and Tietsch, Wolfgang and Mostacci, Domiziano and Scherer, Ulrich W.}, title = {Set-up and first operation of a plasma oven for treatment of low level radioactive wastes}, series = {Nuclear technology and radiation protection}, volume = {29}, journal = {Nuclear technology and radiation protection}, number = {Suppl.}, publisher = {VINČA Institute of Nuclear Sciences}, address = {Belgrad}, issn = {1451-3994}, doi = {10.2298/NTRP140SS47N}, pages = {47 -- 51}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{SrivastavaLahiriMaitietal.2014, author = {Srivastava, A. and Lahiri, S. and Maiti, M. and Knolle, F. and Hoyler, Friedrich and Scherer, Ulrich W. and Schnug, E.

The challenge, however, is to find out a stable and sensitive film architecture that can be incorporated on the sensor's surface. In this paper, we report on the benefits of incorporating a layer-by-layer (LbL) nanofilm of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on capacitive electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor (EIS) field-effect sensors for detecting urea. Three sensor arrangements were studied in order to investigate the adequate film architecture, involving the LbL film with the enzyme urease: (i) urease immobilized directly onto a bare EIS [EIS-urease] sensor; (ii) urease atop the LbL film over the EIS [EIS-(PAMAM/CNT)-urease] sensor; and (iii) urease sandwiched between the LbL film and another CNT layer [EIS-(PAMAM/CNT)-urease-CNT]. The surface morphology of all three urea-based EIS biosensors was investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM), while the biosensing abilities were studied by means of capacitance-voltage (C/V) and dynamic constant-capacitance (ConCap) measureaments at urea concentrations ranging from 0.1 mM to 100 mM. The EIS-urease and EIS-(PAMAM/CNT)-urease sensors showed similar sensitivity (∼18 mV/decade) and a nonregular signal behavior as the urea concentration increased. On the other hand, the EIS-(PAMAM/CNT)-urease-CNT sensor exhibited a superior output signal performance and higher sensitivity of about 33 mV/decade. The presence of the additional CNT layer was decisive to achieve a urea based EIS sensor with enhanced properties. Such sensitive architecture demonstrates that the incorporation of an adequate hybrid enzyme-nanofilm as sensing unit opens new prospects for biosensing applications using the field-effect sensor platform.}, language = {en} } @article{MuribYeapMartensetal.2014, author = {Murib, Mohammed Sharif and Yeap, Weng-Siang and Martens, Daan and Bienstman, Peter and Ceuninck, Ward de and Grinsven, Bart van and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Michiels, Luc and Haenen, Ken and Ameloot, Marcel and Serpeng{\"u}zel, Ali and Wagner, Patrick}, title = {Photonic detection and characterization of DNA using sapphire microspheres}, series = {Journal of biomedical optics}, volume = {19}, journal = {Journal of biomedical optics}, number = {9}, publisher = {SPIE}, address = {Bellingham}, issn = {1560-2281 (E-Journal); 1083-3668 (Print)}, doi = {10.1117/1.JBO.19.9.097006}, pages = {097006}, year = {2014}, abstract = {A microcavity-based deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) optical biosensor is demonstrated for the first time using synthetic sapphire for the optical cavity. Transmitted and elastic scattering intensity at 1510 nm are analyzed from a sapphire microsphere (radius 500  μm, refractive index 1.77) on an optical fiber half coupler. The 0.43 nm angular mode spacing of the resonances correlates well with the optical size of the sapphire sphere. Probe DNA consisting of a 36-mer fragment was covalently immobilized on a sapphire microsphere and hybridized with a 29-mer target DNA. Whispering gallery modes (WGMs) were monitored before the sapphire was functionalized with DNA and after it was functionalized with single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). The shift in WGMs from the surface modification with DNA was measured and correlated well with the estimated thickness of the add-on DNA layer. It is shown that ssDNA is more uniformly oriented on the sapphire surface than dsDNA. In addition, it is shown that functionalization of the sapphire spherical surface with DNA does not affect the quality factor (Q≈104) of the sapphire microspheres. The use of sapphire is especially interesting because this material is chemically resilient, biocompatible, and widely used for medical implants.}, language = {en} } @article{MarxSchenkBehrensetal.2013, author = {Marx, Ulrich and Schenk, Friedrich and Behrens, Jan and Meyr, Ulrike and Wanek, Paul and Zang, Werner and Schmitt, Robert and Br{\"u}stle, Oliver and Zenke, Martin and Klocke, Fritz}, title = {Automatic production of induced pluripotent stem cells}, series = {Procedia CIRP : First CIRP Conference on BioManufacturing}, volume = {Vol. 5}, journal = {Procedia CIRP : First CIRP Conference on BioManufacturing}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {2212-8271}, pages = {2 -- 6}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PfaffVinsonneauBurnham2006, author = {Pfaff, Raphael and Vinsonneau, B. and Burnham, K.

Four generic business models are analysed with regard to the product management function in general and the positioning field for IT-products specifically: off-the-shelf (license), license plus service, project, and system service (incl. cloud computing).}, language = {en} } @article{GuoMiyamotoWagneretal.2014, author = {Guo, Yuanyuan and Miyamoto, Ko-ichiro and Wagner, Torsten and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo}, title = {Device simulation of the light-addressable potentiometric sensor for the investigation of the spatial resolution}, series = {Sensors and actuators B: Chemical}, volume = {204}, journal = {Sensors and actuators B: Chemical}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1873-3077 (E-Journal); 0925-4005 (Print)}, doi = {10.1016/j.snb.2014.08.016}, pages = {659 -- 665}, year = {2014}, abstract = {As a semiconductor-based electrochemical sensor, the light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) can realize two dimensional visualization of (bio-)chemical reactions at the sensor surface addressed by localized illumination. Thanks to this imaging capability, various applications in biochemical and biomedical fields are expected, for which the spatial resolution is critically significant. In this study, therefore, the spatial resolution of the LAPS was investigated in detail based on the device simulation. By calculating the spatiotemporal change of the distributions of electrons and holes inside the semiconductor layer in response to a modulated illumination, the photocurrent response as well as the spatial resolution was obtained as a function of various parameters such as the thickness of the Si substrate, the doping concentration, the wavelength and the intensity of illumination. The simulation results verified that both thinning the semiconductor substrate and increasing the doping concentration could improve the spatial resolution, which were in good agreement with known experimental results and theoretical analysis. More importantly, new findings of interests were also obtained. As for the dependence on the wavelength of illumination, it was found that the known dependence was not always the case. When the Si substrate was thick, a longer wavelength resulted in a higher spatial resolution which was known by experiments. When the Si substrate was thin, however, a longer wavelength of light resulted in a lower spatial resolution. This finding was explained as an effect of raised concentration of carriers, which reduced the thickness of the space charge region. The device simulation was found to be helpful to understand the relationship between the spatial resolution and device parameters, to understand the physics behind it, and to optimize the device structure and measurement conditions for realizing higher performance of chemical imaging systems.}, language = {en} } @article{ReisertGeisslerWeileretal.2015, author = {Reisert, Steffen and Geissler, H. and Weiler, C. and Wagner, P. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Multiple sensor-type system for monitoring the microbicidal effectiveness of aseptic sterilisation processes}, series = {Food control}, volume = {47}, journal = {Food control}, issn = {1873-7129 (E-Journal); 0956-7135 (Print)}, doi = {10.1016/j.foodcont.2014.07.063}, pages = {615 -- 622}, year = {2015}, abstract = {The present work describes a novel multiple sensor-type system for the real-time analysis of aseptic sterilisation processes employing gaseous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a sterilant. The inactivation kinetics of Bacillus atrophaeus by gaseous H2O2 have been investigated by means of a methodical calibration experiment, taking into account the process variables H2O2 concentration, humidity and gas temperature. It has been found that the microbicidal effectiveness at H2O2 concentrations above 2\% v/v is largely determined by the concentration itself, while at lower H2O2 concentrations, the gas temperature and humidity play a leading role. Furthermore, the responses of different types of gas sensors towards the influencing factors of the sterilisation process have been analysed within the same experiment. Based on a correlation established between the inactivation kinetics and the sensor responses, a calorimetric H2O2 sensor and a metal-oxide semiconductor (MOX) sensor have been identified as possible candidates for monitoring the microbicidal effectiveness of aseptic sterilisation processes employing gaseous H2O2. Therefore, two linear models that describe the relationship between sensor response and microbicidal effectiveness have been proposed.}, language = {en} } @article{KhaydukovaZadorozhnayaKirsanovetal.2014, author = {Khaydukova, M.
