For finding an optimal pump configuration which minimizes not only investment, but life-cycle costs, methods like Technical Operations Research which is based on Mixed-Integer Programming can be applied. However, during the planning phase, the designer is often faced with uncertain input data, e.g. future load demands can only be estimated. In this work, we deal with this uncertainty by developing a chance-constrained two-stage (CCTS) stochastic program. The design and operation of a booster station working under uncertain load demand are optimized to minimize total cost including purchase price, operation cost incurred by energy consumption and penalty cost resulting from water shortage. We find optimized system layouts using a sample average approximation (SAA) algorithm, and analyze the results for different risk levels of water shortage. By adjusting the risk level, the costs and performance range of the system can be balanced, and thus the system's resilience can be engineered}, language = {en} } @article{SukhotinaStreckertBitzetal.2006, author = {Sukhotina, Irina and Streckert, Joachim R. and Bitz, Andreas and Hansen, Volkert W. and Lerchl, Alexander}, title = {1800 MHz electromagnetic field effects on melatonin release from isolated pineal glands}, series = {Journal of Pineal Research}, volume = {40}, journal = {Journal of Pineal Research}, number = {1}, issn = {1600-079X}, doi = {10.1111/j.1600-079X.2005.00284.x}, pages = {86 -- 91}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StoebeHoefkenSchubaetal.2013, author = {St{\"o}be, Rolf and H{\"o}fken, Hans-Wilhelm and Schuba, Marko and Breuer, Michael}, title = {Artificial ageing of mobile devices using a simulated GSM/GPRS network}, series = {Eighth International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES) : 2-6 Sept. 2013, Regensburg}, booktitle = {Eighth International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES) : 2-6 Sept. 2013, Regensburg}, publisher = {IEEE}, pages = {493 -- 497}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StopforthFerreinSteinbauer2015, author = {Stopforth, Riaan and Ferrein, Alexander and Steinbauer, Gerald}, title = {Europe and South African collaboration on the Mechatronics and Robotics systems as part of the SA Robotics Center}, series = {ICRA 2015 Developing Countries Forum}, booktitle = {ICRA 2015 Developing Countries Forum}, pages = {3 S.}, year = {2015}, abstract = {Mechatronics consist of the integration of mechanical engineering, electronic integration and computer science/ engineering.

Industry, and in particular engineers who shape industrial developments, have a special role to play as they are confronted with the responsibility to holistically reflect sustainability in industrial processes. This means that, in addition to the technical specifications, engineers must also question the effects of their own actions on an ecological, economic and social level in order to ensure sustainable action and contribute to the achievement of the SDGs. However, this requires competencies that enable engineers to apply all three pillars of sustainability to their own field of activity and to understand the global impact of industrial processes. In this context, it is relevant to understand how industry already reflects sustainability and to identify competences needed for sustainable development.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StephanHeuermannPrantner2016, author = {Stephan, Achim and Heuermann, Holger and Prantner, Michael}, title = {Cutting human tissue with novel atmospheric-pressure microwave plasma jet}, series = {46th European Microwave Conference (EuMC)}, booktitle = {46th European Microwave Conference (EuMC)}, publisher = {IEEE}, isbn = {978-2-87487-043-9}, doi = {10.1109/EuMC.2016.7824490}, pages = {902 -- 905}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @incollection{StengerAltherrMuelleretal.2018, author = {Stenger, David and Altherr, Lena and M{\"u}ller, Tankred and Pelz, Peter F.}, title = {Product family design optimization using model-based engineering techniques}, series = {Operations Research Proceedings 2017}, booktitle = {Operations Research Proceedings 2017}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-89919-0}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-89920-6_66}, pages = {495 -- 502}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Highly competitive markets paired with tremendous production volumes demand particularly cost efficient products. The usage of common parts and modules across product families can potentially reduce production costs. Yet, increasing commonality typically results in overdesign of individual products. Multi domain virtual prototyping enables designers to evaluate costs and technical feasibility of different single product designs at reasonable computational effort in early design phases. However, savings by platform commonality are hard to quantify and require detailed knowledge of e.g. the production process and the supply chain. Therefore, we present and evaluate a multi-objective metamodel-based optimization algorithm which enables designers to explore the trade-off between high commonality and cost optimal design of single products.}, language = {en} } @incollection{StengerAltherrAbel2019, author = {Stenger, David and Altherr, Lena and Abel, Dirk}, title = {Machine learning and metaheuristics for black-box optimization of product families: a case-study investigating solution quality vs. computational overhead}, series = {Operations Research Proceedings 2018}, booktitle = {Operations Research Proceedings 2018}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-030-18499-5 (Print)}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-18500-8_47}, pages = {379 -- 385}, year = {2019}, abstract = {In product development, numerous design decisions have to be made. Multi-domain virtual prototyping provides a variety of tools to assess technical feasibility of design options, however often requires substantial computational effort for just a single evaluation. A special challenge is therefore the optimal design of product families, which consist of a group of products derived from a common platform. Finding an optimal platform configuration (stating what is shared and what is individually designed for each product) and an optimal design of all products simultaneously leads to a mixed-integer nonlinear black-box optimization model. We present an optimization approach based on metamodels and a metaheuristic. To increase computational efficiency and solution quality, we compare different types of Gaussian process regression metamodels adapted from the domain of machine learning, and combine them with a genetic algorithm. We illustrate our approach on the example of a product family of electrical drives, and investigate the trade-off between solution quality and computational overhead.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StenderRitz2003, author = {Stender, Michael and Ritz, Thomas}, title = {Modeling of business-to-business mobile commerce processes}, series = {Electronic proceedings / ICPR 17, 17th International Conference on Production Research [Blacksburg, Virginia, USA, August 3 - 7, 2003]}, booktitle = {Electronic proceedings / ICPR 17, 17th International Conference on Production Research [Blacksburg, Virginia, USA, August 3 - 7, 2003]}, edition = {CD-ROM-Ausg.}, address = {Blacksburg, Va.}, isbn = {0-9721257-3-6}, year = {2003}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StenderRitz2003, author = {Stender, Michael and Ritz, Thomas}, title = {{\"U}berbetriebliche Ad-hoc-Anwendungsintegration im Mobile Business}, series = {Wirtschaftsinformatik 2003 : Medien, M{\"a}rkte, Mobilit{\"a}t: - Bd. 1}, booktitle = {Wirtschaftsinformatik 2003 : Medien, M{\"a}rkte, Mobilit{\"a}t: - Bd. 1}, editor = {Uhr, Wolfgang}, publisher = {Physica-Verl.}, address = {Heidelberg}, isbn = {3-7908-0111-9}, pages = {103 -- 118}, year = {2003}, language = {de} } @article{SteinbauerFerrein2016, author = {Steinbauer, Gerald and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {20 Years of RoboCup}, series = {KI - K{\"u}nstliche Intelligenz}, volume = {30}, journal = {KI - K{\"u}nstliche Intelligenz}, number = {3-4}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1610-1987}, doi = {10.1007/s13218-016-0442-z}, pages = {221 -- 224}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SteinbauerFerrein2019, author = {Steinbauer, Gerald and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {CogRob 2018 : Cognitive Robotics Workshop.
