A variety of these components were constructed via 3D-printing and analyzed in a wind-tunnel measurement campaign. Both turrets and landing gears were attached to a modular fuselage that supported both isolated components and multiple components at a time. Selected cases were numerically investigated with a Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes approach that showed good accuracy when compared to wind-tunnel data. The drag of main gear struts could be significantly reduced via streamlining their cross-sectional shape and keeping load carrying capabilities similar. The attachment of wheels introduced interference effects that increased strut drag moderately but significantly increased wheel drag compared to isolated cases. Very similar behavior was identified for front landing gears. The drag of an electro-optical and infrared sensor turret was found to be much higher than compared to available data of a clean hemisphere-cylinder combination. This turret drag was merely influenced by geometrical features like sensor surfaces and the rotational mechanism. The new data of this study is used to develop simple drag estimation recommendations for main and front landing gear struts and wheels as well as sensor turrets. These recommendations take geometrical considerations and interference effects into account.}, language = {en} } @article{Wolf2000, author = {Wolf, Martin R.}, title = {Groupware related task design}, series = {ACM SIGGROUP Bulletin. 21 (2000), H. 2}, journal = {ACM SIGGROUP Bulletin. 21 (2000), H. 2}, publisher = {-}, pages = {5 -- 8}, year = {2000}, language = {en} } @article{Ferrein2010, author = {Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {golog.lua: Towards a Non-Prolog Implementation of Golog for Embedded Systems}, pages = {20 -- 28}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{Ferrein2010, author = {Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {golog.lua: Towards a Non-Prolog Implementation of Golog for Embedded Systems}, series = {Cognitive Robotics / Lakemeyer, Gerhard (ed.)}, journal = {Cognitive Robotics / Lakemeyer, Gerhard (ed.)}, pages = {1 -- 15}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{HeinEubanksLingametal.2022, author = {Hein, Andreas M. and Eubanks, T.

We describe flyby, rendezvous and sample return missions to interstellar objects, showing various ways to explore these bodies characterizing their surface, dynamics, structure and composition. Their direct exploration will constrain their formation and history, situating them within the dynamical and chemical evolution of the Galaxy.

However, more reliable path planning algorithms are required until full autonomous UAV operation is possible. This work investigates the algorithm 3DVFH* and analyses its dependency on its cost function weights in 2400 environments. The analysis shows that the 3DVFH* can find a suitable path in every environment. However, a particular type of environment requires a specific choice of cost function weights. For minimal failure, probability interdependencies between the weights of the cost function have to be considered. This dependency reduces the number of control parameters and simplifies the usage of the 3DVFH*. Weights for costs associated with vertical evasion (pitch cost) and vicinity to obstacles (obstacle cost) have the highest influence on the failure probability of the local path planner. Environments with mainly very tall buildings (like large American city centres) require a preference for horizontal avoidance manoeuvres (achieved with high pitch cost weights). In contrast, environments with medium-to-low buildings (like European city centres) benefit from vertical avoidance manoeuvres (achieved with low pitch cost weights). The cost of the vicinity to obstacles also plays an essential role and must be chosen adequately for the environment. Choosing these two weights ideal is sufficient to reduce the failure probability below 10\%.}, language = {en} } @article{EdipGarevskiButenwegetal.2013, author = {Edip, Kemal and Garevski, Mihail and Butenweg, Christoph and Sesov, Vlatko and Cvetanovska, Julijana and Gjorgiev, Igor}, title = {Numerical simulation of geotechnical problems by coupled finite and infinite elements}, series = {Journal of civil engineering and architecture}, volume = {7}, journal = {Journal of civil engineering and architecture}, number = {1}, publisher = {David Publishing}, address = {Libertyville}, issn = {1934-7359 (E-Journal)}, pages = {68 -- 77}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{GoemmelButenwegBolenderetal.2007, author = {G{\"o}mmel, Andreas and Butenweg, Christoph and Bolender, Katrin and Grunendahl, Arno}, title = {A muscle controlled finite-element model of laryngeal abduction and adduction}, series = {Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering}, volume = {Volume 10}, journal = {Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering}, number = {Issue 5}, issn = {1476-8259 (E-Journal);

This brief review highlights the potential links between vitamin D and gut health, emphasizing the role of vitamin D in microbiological and immunological mechanisms of inflammatory bowel diseases. A comprehensive literature search was carried out in PubMed and Google Scholar using combinations of keywords "vitamin D," "intestines," "gut microflora," "bowel inflammation". Only articles published in English and related to the study topic are included in the review. We discuss how vitamin D (a) modulates intestinal microbiome function, (b) controls antimicrobial peptide expression, and (c) has a protective effect on epithelial barriers in the gut mucosa. Vitamin D and its nuclear receptor (VDR) regulate intestinal barrier integrity, and control innate and adaptive immunity in the gut. Metabolites from the gut microbiota may also regulate expression of VDR, while vitamin D may influence the gut microbiota and exert anti-inflammatory and immune-modulating effects. The underlying mechanism of vitamin D in the pathogenesis of bowel diseases is not fully understood, but maintaining an optimal vitamin D status appears to be beneficial for gut health. Future studies will shed light on the molecular mechanisms through which vitamin D and VDR interactions affect intestinal mucosal immunity, pathogen invasion, symbiont colonization, and antimicrobial peptide expression.}, language = {en} } @article{PeloniCeriottiDachwald2016, author = {Peloni, Alessandro and Ceriotti, Matteo and Dachwald, Bernd}, title = {Solar-sail trajectory design for a multiple near-earth-asteroid rendezvous mission}, series = {Journal of Guidance, Control, and Dynamics}, volume = {39}, journal = {Journal of Guidance, Control, and Dynamics}, number = {12}, publisher = {AIAA}, address = {Reston, Va.}, issn = {0731-5090}, doi = {10.2514/1.G000470}, pages = {2712 -- 2724}, year = {2016}, abstract = {The scientific interest for near-Earth asteroids as well as the interest in potentially hazardous asteroids from the perspective of planetary defense led the space community to focus on near-Earth asteroid mission studies.

This work explores the design of a solar-sail spacecraft for such a mission, focusing on the search of possible sequences of encounters and the trajectory optimization. This is done in two sequential steps: a sequence search by means of a simplified trajectory model and a set of heuristic rules based on astrodynamics, and a subsequent optimization phase. A shape-based approach for solar sailing has been developed and is used for the first phase. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through a fully optimized multiple near-Earth asteroid rendezvous mission.

Both in its varied natural habitats and in industrial settings, B. licheniformis cells will be exposed to increases in the external osmolarity, conditions that trigger water efflux, impair turgor, cause the cessation of growth, and negatively affect the productivity of cell factories in biotechnological processes. We have taken here both systems-wide and targeted physiological approaches to unravel the core of the osmostress responses of B. licheniformis. Cells were suddenly subjected to an osmotic upshift of considerable magnitude (with 1 M NaCl), and their transcriptional profile was then recorded in a time-resolved fashion on a genome-wide scale. A bioinformatics cluster analysis was used to group the osmotically up-regulated genes into categories that are functionally associated with the synthesis and import of osmostress-relieving compounds (compatible solutes), the SigB-controlled general stress response, and genes whose functional annotation suggests that salt stress triggers secondary oxidative stress responses in B. licheniformis. The data set focusing on the transcriptional profile of B. licheniformis was enriched by proteomics aimed at identifying those proteins that were accumulated by the cells through increased biosynthesis in response to osmotic stress. Furthermore, these global approaches were augmented by a set of experiments that addressed the synthesis of the compatible solutes proline and glycine betaine and assessed the growth-enhancing effects of various osmoprotectants. Combined, our data provide a blueprint of the cellular adjustment processes of B. licheniformis to both sudden and sustained osmotic stress.}, language = {en} } @article{PogorelovaRogachevAkimbekovetal.2024, author = {Pogorelova, Natalia and Rogachev, Evgeniy and Akimbekov, Nuraly S. and Digel, Ilya}, title = {Effect of dehydration method on the micro- and nanomorphological properties of bacterial cellulose produced by Medusomyces gisevii on different substrates}, series = {Journal of materials science}, volume = {2024}, journal = {Journal of materials science}, publisher = {Springer Science + Business Media}, address = {Dordrecht}, issn = {1573-4803 (Online)}, doi = {10.1007/s10853-024-09596-3}, pages = {13 Seiten}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Many important properties of bacterial cellulose (BC), such as moisture absorption capacity, elasticity and tensile strength, largely depend on its structure.

BC was synthesized using one of two different carbon sources—either glucose or sucrose. Structural differences in the obtained BC films were evaluated using atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction. Macroscopically, the RT samples appeared semi-transparent and smooth, whereas the FD group exhibited an opaque white color and sponge-like structure. SEM examination showed denser packing of fibrils in FD samples while RT-samples displayed smaller average fiber diameter, lower surface roughness and less porosity. AFM confirmed the SEM observations and showed that the FD material exhibited a more branched structure and a higher surface roughness. The samples cultivated in a glucose-containing nutrient medium, generally displayed a straight and ordered shape of fibrils compared to the sucrose-derived BC, characterized by a rougher and wavier structure. The BC films dried under different conditions showed distinctly different crystallinity degrees, whereas the carbon source in the culture medium was found to have a relatively small effect on the BC crystallinity.}, language = {en} } @article{VoigtSchroeterJuergenetal.2013, author = {Voigt, Birgit and Schroeter, Rebecca and J{\"u}rgen, Britta and Albrecht, Dirk and Evers, Stefan and Bongaerts, Johannes and Maurer, Karl-Heinz and Schweder, Thomas and Hecker, Michael}, title = {The response of Bacillus licheniformis to heat and ethanol stress and the role of the SigB regulon}, series = {Proteomics}, volume = {Vol. 13}, journal = {Proteomics}, number = {Iss. 14}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1615-9861 (E-Journal); 1615-9853 (Print)}, pages = {2140 -- 2146}, year = {2013}, language = {en} }
