With the help of the method "TOR" ("Technical Operations Research"), which was developed at the Chair of Fluid Systems at TU Darmstadt, it is possible to improve the energy efficiency of the whole system by considering all possible design choices programmatically. We show the ability of this systematic design approach with a ventilation system for buildings as a use case example. Based on a Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Program (MINLP) we model the ventilation system. We use binary variables to model the selection of different pipe diameters. Multiple fans are model with the help of scaling laws. The whole system is represented by a graph, where the edges represent the pipes and fans and the nodes represents the source of air for cooling and the sinks, that have to be cooled. At the beginning, the human designer chooses a construction kit of different suitable fans and pipes of different diameters and different load cases. These boundary conditions define a variety of different possible system topologies. It is not possible to consider all topologies by hand. With the help of state of the art solvers, on the other side, it is possible to solve this MINLP. Next to this, we also consider the effects of malfunctions in different components. Therefore, we show a first approach to measure the resilience of the shown example use case. Further, we compare the conventional approach with designs that are more resilient. These more resilient designs are derived by extending the before mentioned model with further constraints, that consider explicitly the resilience of the overall system. We show that it is possible to design resilient systems with this method already in the early design stage and compare the energy efficiency and resilience of these different system designs.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AnicPenavaGuljasetal.2018, author = {Anic, Filip and Penava, Davorin and Guljas, Ivica and Sarhosis, Vasilis and Abrahamczyk, Lars and Butenweg, Christoph}, title = {The Effect of Openings on Out-of-Plane Capacity of Masonry Infilled Reinforced Concrete Frames}, series = {16th European Conference on Earthquake Engineering, Thessaloniki, 18-21 June, 2018}, booktitle = {16th European Conference on Earthquake Engineering, Thessaloniki, 18-21 June, 2018}, pages = {1 -- 11}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BosseDeClercqBarnat2018, author = {Bosse, Elke and De Clercq, Mikael and Barnat, Miriam}, title = {The Role of Diversity for the Transition to Higher Education}, series = {EARLI SIG 4, Giessen}, booktitle = {EARLI SIG 4, Giessen}, pages = {13 Folien}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FerreinSchifferKallweit2018, author = {Ferrein, Alexander and Schiffer, Stefan and Kallweit, Stephan}, title = {The ROSIN Education Concept - Fostering ROS Industrial-Related Robotics Education in Europe}, series = {ROBOT 2017: Third Iberian Robotics Conference}, booktitle = {ROBOT 2017: Third Iberian Robotics Conference}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-70836-2}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-70836-2_31}, pages = {370 -- 381}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{JeanPierrePBaqueBillietal.2018, author = {Jean-Pierre P., de Vera and Baque, Mickael and Billi, Daniela and B{\"o}ttger, Ute and Bulat, Sergey and Czupalla, Markus and Dachwald, Bernd and de la Torre, Rosa and Elsaesser, Andreas and Foucher, Fr{\´e}d{\´e}ric and Korsitzky, Hartmut and Kozyrovska, Natalia and L{\"a}ufer, Andreas and Moeller, Ralf and Olsson-Francis, Karen and Onofri, Silvano and Sommer, Stefan and Wagner, Dirk and Westall, Frances}, title = {The search for life on Mars and in the Solar System - strategies, logistics and infrastructures}, series = {69th International Astronautical Congress (IAC)}, booktitle = {69th International Astronautical Congress (IAC)}, pages = {1 -- 8}, year = {2018}, abstract = {The question "Are we alone in the Universe?" is perhaps the most fundamental one that affects mankind. How can we address the search for life in our Solar System? Mars, Enceladus and Europa are the focus of the search for life outside the terrestrial biosphere. While it is more likely to find remnants of life (fossils of extinct life) on Mars because of its past short time window of the surface habitability, it is probably more likely to find traces of extant life on the icy moons and ocean worlds of Jupiter and Saturn. Nevertheless, even on Mars there could still be a chance to find extant life in niches near to the surface or in just discovered subglacial lakes beneath the South Pole ice cap. Here, the different approaches for the detection of traces of life in the form of biosignatures including pre-biotic molecules will be presented. We will outline the required infrastructure for this enterprise and give examples of future mission concepts to investigate the presence of life on other planets and moons. Finally, we will provide suggestions on methods, techniques, operations and strategies for preparation and realization of future life detection missions.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KoenigVoelkerWolf2018, author = {K{\"o}nig, Johannes Alexander and V{\"o}lker, Veronika and Wolf, Martin}, title = {The user-focused storybuilding framework for competence developing games - a design-framework considering the basics of an educational game's story}, series = {ACHI 2018 : The Eleventh International Conference on Advances in Computer-Human Interactions}, booktitle = {ACHI 2018 : The Eleventh International Conference on Advances in Computer-Human Interactions}, isbn = {978-1-61208-616-3}, pages = {98 -- 106}, year = {2018}, abstract = {During the development of a Competence Developing Game's (CDG) story it is indispensable to understand the target audience.

The Framework and its utilization will be explained, followed by a description of its development and derivation, including an empirical study. In addition, to simplify the Framework use regarding the CDG's target audience, a new concept of Nine Psychographic Player Types will be explained. This concept of Player Types provides an approach to handle the differences in between players during the UFoS Framework use.
