This co-operation is sometimes made more difficult by the differences in their disciplinary languages and approaches. Structures are evaluated by architects on the basis of criteria such as spatial impact and usability, while civil engineers analyze them more closely by their bearing and deformation properties, as well as by constructive aspects. This diversity of assessment criteria and approaches is often continued in both academic disciplines in the view on structures. Within the framework of the Exploratory Teaching Space (ETS), a funding program to improve teaching at RWTH Aachen University and to promote new teaching concepts, a project was carried out jointly by the Junior Professorship of Tool-Culture at the Faculty of Architecture and the Institute of Structural Concrete at the Faculty of Civil Engineering. The aim of the project is to present buildings in such a way that the differences in perception between architects and civil engineers are reduced and the common understanding is promoted. The project develops a database, which contains a collection of striking buildings from Aachen and the surrounding area. The buildings are categorized according to terms that come from both disciplinary areas. The collection can be freely explored or crossed through learning trails. The medium of film plays a special role in presenting the buildings. The buildings are assigned to different categories of load bearing structures as linear, planar and spatial structures, and further to different types of material, functional programs and spatial characteristics. Since the buildings are located in the direct vicinity of Aachen, they can be visited by the students. This makes them more sensitive to their environment. Intrinsic motivation, as well as implicit learning is encouraged. The paper will provide a detailed report of the project, its implementation, the feedback of the students and the plans for further development.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StaatTran2022, author = {Staat, Manfred and Tran, Ngoc Trinh}, title = {Strain based brittle failure criteria for rocks}, series = {Proceedings of (NACOME2022) The 11th National Conference on Mechanics, Vol. 1.

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{SpaeteHafnerSchwarzer2000, author = {Sp{\"a}te, Frank and Hafner, B. and Schwarzer, Klemens}, title = {A system for solar process heat for decentralized applications in developing countries}, series = {ISES 1999 Solar World Congress, Jerusalem, Israel, July 4-9, 1999 : conference proceedings / ed.

Thus our developed mission scenario based on the joint NASA/ESA Titan Saturn System Mission baselines solar electric propulsion to improve mission flexibility and transfer time. 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. Compared to Cassini/Huygens, the best found solutions have faster transfer times and a higher mission flexibility in general.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SpohrSchirraHoeflingetal.2013, author = {Spohr, A. and Schirra, Julian and Hoefling, J. and Schedl, A.}, title = {Wing weight estimation methodology for highly non-planar lifting systems during conceptual design}, series = {Deutscher Luft- und Raumfahrtkongress 2013 : 10.9. - 12.9.2013, Stuttgart}, booktitle = {Deutscher Luft- und Raumfahrtkongress 2013 : 10.9. - 12.9.2013, Stuttgart}, organization = {Deutscher Luft- und Raumfahrtkongress <62, 2013, Stuttgart>}, pages = {Publ. online}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SpasovDoeringGriffin2007, author = {Spasov, Yulian and D{\"o}ring, Bernd and Griffin, Allan}, title = {Exploiting the thermal mass in an energy efficient building - a comparison exercise between IES Apache and TRNSYS models}, series = {Clima 2007 WellBeing Indoors: 9th Rehva World Congress, 10-14 June 2007, Helsinki, Finland : proceedings}, booktitle = {Clima 2007 WellBeing Indoors: 9th Rehva World Congress, 10-14 June 2007, Helsinki, Finland : proceedings}, address = {Helsinki}, isbn = {978-952-99898-2-9}, pages = {1 -- 7}, year = {2007}, 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{SimsekKrauseEngelmann2024, author = {Simsek, Beril and Krause, Hans-Joachim and Engelmann, Ulrich M.}, title = {Magnetic biosensing with magnetic nanoparticles: Simulative approach to predict signal intensity in frequency mixing magnetic detection}, series = {YRA MedTech Symposium (2024)}, booktitle = {YRA MedTech Symposium (2024)}, editor = {Digel, Ilya and Staat, Manfred and Trzewik, J{\"u}rgen and Sielemann, Stefanie and Erni, Daniel and Zylka, Waldemar}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Duisburg-Essen}, address = {Duisburg}, organization = {MedTech Symposium}, isbn = {978-3-940402-65-3}, doi = {10.17185/duepublico/81475}, pages = {27 -- 28}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) are investigated with great interest for biomedical applications in diagnostics (e.g. imaging: magnetic particle imaging (MPI)), therapeutics (e.g. hyperthermia: magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH)) and multi-purpose biosensing (e.g. magnetic immunoassays (MIA)). 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{SildatkeKarwanniKraftetal.2020, author = {Sildatke, Michael and Karwanni, Hendrik and Kraft, Bodo and Schmidts, Oliver and Z{\"u}ndorf, Albert}, title = {Automated Software Quality Monitoring in Research Collaboration Projects}, series = {ICSEW'20: Proceedings of the IEEE/ACM 42nd International Conference on Software Engineering Workshops}, booktitle = {ICSEW'20: Proceedings of the IEEE/ACM 42nd International Conference on Software Engineering Workshops}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York, NY}, doi = {10.1145/3387940.3391478}, pages = {603 -- 610}, year = {2020}, abstract = {In collaborative research projects, both researchers and practitioners work together solving business-critical challenges. These projects often deal with ETL processes, in which humans extract information from non-machine-readable documents by hand. AI-based machine learning models can help to solve this problem. Since machine learning approaches are not deterministic, their quality of output may decrease over time. This fact leads to an overall quality loss of the application which embeds machine learning models. Hence, the software qualities in development and production may differ. Machine learning models are black boxes. That makes practitioners skeptical and increases the inhibition threshold for early productive use of research prototypes. Continuous monitoring of software quality in production offers an early response capability on quality loss and encourages the use of machine learning approaches. Furthermore, experts have to ensure that they integrate possible new inputs into the model training as quickly as possible. In this paper, we introduce an architecture pattern with a reference implementation that extends the concept of Metrics Driven Research Collaboration with an automated software quality monitoring in productive use and a possibility to auto-generate new test data coming from processed documents in production. Through automated monitoring of the software quality and auto-generated test data, this approach ensures that the software quality meets and keeps requested thresholds in productive use, even during further continuous deployment and changing input data.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SiekmannMueller2011, author = {Siekmann, Thomas and M{\"u}ller, Karsten}, title = {Adaptive potential of the stormwater management in urban areas faced by the climate change}, series = {12th International Conference on Urban Drainage, Porto Alegre/Brazil, 11-16 September 2011}, booktitle = {12th International Conference on Urban Drainage, Porto Alegre/Brazil, 11-16 September 2011}, pages = {9 S.}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SiegertIdingBaumannetal.2000, author = {Siegert, Petra and Iding, Hans and Baumann, Martin and McLeish, Michael J. and Kenyon, George L. and Pohl, Martina}, title = {Broadening of the substrate spectra of two ThDP-dependent decarboxylases using site-directed-mutagenesis}, series = {Proceedings of the 4th International Congress on Biochemical Engineering : 17 and 18 February 2000, Stuttgart}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 4th International Congress on Biochemical Engineering : 17 and 18 February 2000, Stuttgart}, organization = {International Congress on Biochemical Engineering <4, 2000, Stuttgart>}, isbn = {3-8167-5570-4}, pages = {38 -- 42}, year = {2000}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SiebigterothKraftSchmidtsetal.2019, author = {Siebigteroth, Ines and Kraft, Bodo and Schmidts, Oliver and Z{\"u}ndorf, Albert}, title = {A Study on Improving Corpus Creation by Pair Annotation}, series = {Proceedings of the Poster Session of the 2nd Conference on Language, Data and Knowledge (LDK-PS 2019)}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Poster Session of the 2nd Conference on Language, Data and Knowledge (LDK-PS 2019)}, issn = {1613-0073}, pages = {40 -- 44}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SherelkhanAlibekova2024, author = {Sherelkhan, Dinara and Alibekova, Alina}, title = {EEM spectroscopy characterization of humic substances of biomedical importance}, series = {YRA MedTech Symposium (2024)}, booktitle = {YRA MedTech Symposium (2024)}, editor = {Digel, Ilya and Staat, Manfred and Trzewik, J{\"u}rgen and Sielemann, Stefanie and Erni, Daniel and Zylka, Waldemar}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Duisburg-Essen}, address = {Duisburg}, organization = {MedTech Symposium}, isbn = {978-3-940402-65-3}, doi = {10.17185/duepublico/81475}, pages = {31 -- 32}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Humic substances possess distinctive chemical features enabling their use in many advanced applications, including biomedical fields.

This innovative concept for low-thrust space propulsion works without any propellant and thus provides a wide range of opportunities for highenergy low-cost missions. Offering an efficient way of propulsion, solar sailcraft could close a gap in transportation options for highly demanding exploration missions within our solar system and even beyond. On December 17th, 1999, a significant step was made towards the realization of this technology: a lightweight solar sail structure with an area of 20 m × 20 m was successfully deployed on ground in a large facility at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) at Cologne. The deployment from a package of 60 cm × 60 cm × 65 cm with a total mass of less than 35 kg was achieved using four extremely light-weight carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) booms with a specific mass of 100 g/m. The paper briefly reviews the basic principles of solar sails as well as the technical concept and its realization in the ground demonstration experiment, performed in close cooperation between DLR and ESA. Next possible steps are outlined. They could comprise the in-orbit demonstration of the sail deployment on the upper stage of a low-cost rocket and the verification of the propulsion concept by an autonomous and free flying solar sail in the frame of a scientific mission. It is expected that the present design could be extended to sail sizes of about (40 m)2 up to even (70 m)2 without significant mass penalty. With these areas, the maximum achievable thrust at 1 AU would range between 10 and 40 mN - comparable to some electric thrusters. Such prototype sails with a mass between 50 and 150 kg plus a micro-spacecraft of 50 to 250 kg would have a maximum acceleration in the order of 0.1 mm/s2 at 1 AU, corresponding to a maximum ∆V-capability of about 3 km/s per year.

In Europe, an exploration program, termed AURORA, was established by ESA in 2001 - funded on a voluntary basis by ESA member states - with a clear focus on Mars and the ultimate goal of landing humans on Mars around 2030 in international cooperation. In 2003, a Human Spaceflight Vision Group was appointed by ESA with the task to develop a vision for the role of human spaceflight during the next quarter of the century. The resulting vision focused on a European-led lunar exploration initiative as part of a multi-decade, international effort to strengthen European identity and economy. After a review of the situation in Europe concerning space exploration, the paper outlines an approach for a consistent positioning of exploration within the existing European space programs, identifies destinations, and develops corresponding scenarios for an integrated strategy, starting with robotic missions to the Moon, Mars, and near-Earth asteroids. The interests of the European planetary in-situ science community, which recently met at DLR Cologne, are considered. Potential robotic lunar missions comprise polar landings to search for frozen volatiles and a sample return. For Mars, the implementation of a modest robotic landing mission in 2009 to demonstrate the capability for landing and prepare more ambitious and complex missions is discussed. For near-Earth asteroid exploration, a low-cost in-situ technology demonstration mission could yield important results. All proposed scenarios offer excellent science and could therefore create synergies between ESA's mandatory and optional programs in the area of planetary science and exploration.
