What all of these applications have in common is that they are based on the unique magnetic relaxation mechanisms of MNP in an alternating magnetic field (AMF). While MFH and MPI are currently the most prominent examples of biomedical applications, here we present results on the relatively new biosensing application of frequency mixing magnetic detection (FMMD) from a simulation perspective. In general, we ask how the key parameters of MNP (core size and magnetic anisotropy) affect the FMMD signal: by varying the core size, we investigate the effect of the magnetic volume per MNP; and by changing the effective magnetic anisotropy, we study the MNPs' flexibility to leave its preferred magnetization direction. From this, we predict the most effective combination of MNP core size and magnetic anisotropy for maximum signal generation.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SirazitdinovaDulzonMueller2015, author = {Sirazitdinova, Y. and Dulzon, A. and M{\"u}ller, Burghard}, title = {Project management practices in engineering university}, series = {21st International Conference for Students and Young Scientists: Modern Technique and Technologies, MTT 2015; National Research Tomsk Polytechnic UniversityTomsk; Russian Federation; 5 October 2015 through 9 October 2015}, booktitle = {21st International Conference for Students and Young Scientists: Modern Technique and Technologies, MTT 2015; National Research Tomsk Polytechnic UniversityTomsk; Russian Federation; 5 October 2015 through 9 October 2015}, doi = {10.1088/1757-899X/93/1/012080}, pages = {4 S.}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SpannhakeSchulzHelwigetal.2006, author = {Spannhake, Jan and Schulz, Olaf and Helwig, Andreas and Krenkow, Angelika and M{\"u}ller, Gerhard and Doll, Theodor}, title = {High-temperature MEMS heater platforms: long-term performance of metal and semiconductor heater materials}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:a96-opus-1513}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Micromachined thermal heater platforms offer low electrical power consumption and high modulation speed, i.e. properties which are advantageous for realizing nondispersive infrared (NDIR) gas- and liquid monitoring systems.

For the calculation of near-globally optimal low-thrust trajectories, we have used a method called Evolutionary Neurocontrol, which is implemented in the low-thrust trajectory optimization software InTrance. The studied solar electric propulsion scenario covers trajectory optimization of the interplanetary transfer including variations of the spacecraft's thrust level, the thrust unit's specific impulse and the solar power generator power level. Additionally developed software extensions enabled trajectory optimization with launcher-provided hyperbolic excess energy, a complex solar power generator model and a variable specific impulse ion engine model. For the investigated mission scenario, Evolutionary Neurocontrol yields good optimization results, which also hold valid for the more elaborate spacecraft models.

There is no way around the problem as yet. Therefore what PFM can contribute to the reliability of steel pressure boundaries is demon­strated with the example of a typical reactor pressure vessel and critically discussed. Although no method is distinguishable that could give exact failure probabilities, PFM has several addi­tional chances. Upper limits for failure probability may be obtained together with trends for design and operating conditions. Further, PFM can identify the most sensitive parameters, improved control of which would increase reliability. Thus PFM should play a vital role in the analysis of steel pressure boundaries despite all shortcomings.}, subject = {Bruchmechanik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StaatBallmann1989, author = {Staat, Manfred and Ballmann, J.}, title = {Fundamental aspects of numerical methods for the propagation of multi-dimensional nonlinear waves in solids}, series = {Nonlinear hyperbolic equations : theory, computations methods, and applications ; proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Nonlinear Hyperbolic Problems, Aachen}, booktitle = {Nonlinear hyperbolic equations : theory, computations methods, and applications ; proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Nonlinear Hyperbolic Problems, Aachen}, pages = {574 -- 588}, year = {1989}, abstract = {The nonlinear scalar constitutive equations of gases lead to a change in sound speed from point to point as would be found in linear inhomogeneous (and time dependent) media.

It is an open question whether the widely used operator splitting techniques achieve a dimensional splitting with physically reasonable results for these multi-dimensional problems. May be this is the main reason why the theoretical and numerical investigations of multi-dimensional wave propagation in nonlinear solids are so far behind gas dynamics.

Based on the idea of averaging spatially the standard strain field of the FEM over so-called smoothing domains SFEM calculates the stiffness matrix for the same number of degrees of freedom (DOFs) as those of the FEM. However, the SFEMs significantly improve accuracy and convergence even for distorted meshes and/or nearly incompressible materials. Numerical results of the SFEMs for a cardiac tissue membrane (thin plate inflation) and an artery (tension of 3D tube) show clearly their advantageous properties in improving accuracy particularly for the distorted meshes and avoiding shear locking effects.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StaatHeitzer1997, author = {Staat, Manfred and Heitzer, Michael}, title = {Limit and shakedown analysis for plastic design}, year = {1997}, abstract = {Limit and shakedown theorems are exact theories of classical plasticity for the direct computation of safety factors or of the load carrying capacity under constant and varying loads.

It is shown that shakedown analysis can make quite stable predictions of admissible load ranges despite the simplicity of the underlying hardening models.

These "paradox" fractures can be explained by a phenomenological extension strain failure criterion. In the past, a simple empirical criterion for fracture initiation in brittle rock has been developed. But this criterion makes unrealistic strength predictions in biaxial compression and tension. A new extension strain criterion overcomes this limitation by adding a weighted principal shear component. The weight is chosen, such that the enriched extension strain criterion represents the same failure surface as the Mohr-Coulomb (MC) criterion. Thus, the MC criterion has been derived as an extension strain criterion predicting failure modes, which are unexpected in the understanding of the failure of cohesive-frictional materials. In progressive damage of rock, the most likely fracture direction is orthogonal to the maximum extension strain. The enriched extension strain criterion is proposed as a threshold surface for crack initiation CI and crack damage CD and as a failure surface at peak P. Examples show that the enriched extension strain criterion predicts much lower volumes of damaged rock mass compared to the simple extension strain criterion.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StaatTranPham2008, author = {Staat, Manfred and Tran, Thanh Ngoc and Pham, Phu Tinh}, title = {Limit and shakedown reliability analysis by nonlinear programming}, year = {2008}, abstract = {7th International Conference on Reliability of Materials and Structures (RELMAS 2008). June 17 - 20, 2008 ; Saint Petersburg, Russia. pp 354-358. Reprint with corrections in red Introduction Analysis of advanced structures working under extreme heavy loading such as nuclear power plants and piping system should take into account the randomness of loading, geometrical and material parameters. The existing reliability are restricted mostly to the elastic working regime, e.g. allowable local stresses. Development of the limit and shakedown reliability-based analysis and design methods, exploiting potential of the shakedown working regime, is highly needed. In this paper the application of a new algorithm of probabilistic limit and shakedown analysis for shell structures is presented, in which the loading and strength of the material as well as the thickness of the shell are considered as random variables. The reliability analysis problems may be efficiently solved by using a system combining the available FE codes, a deterministic limit and shakedown analysis, and the First and Second Order Reliability Methods (FORM/SORM). Non-linear sensitivity analyses are obtained directly from the solution of the deterministic problem without extra computational costs.}, subject = {Finite-Elemente-Methode}, language = {en} }
