MatDyn. Hanoi, Vietnam, Sept. 24-26, 2007, 8 p. In this paper, a method is introduced to determine the limit load of general shells using the finite element method. The method is based on an upper bound limit and shakedown analysis with elastic-perfectly plastic material model. A non-linear constrained optimisation problem is solved by using Newton's method in conjunction with a penalty method and the Lagrangean dual method.

At the same time prices decline steadily with the latest trend being that operators offer voice services free of charge, the costs of which are covered by a monthly subscription charge. Against this background the paper examines the state of policy and regulatory reform in the telecommunications sector in Germany almost 10 years after the liberalisation of the fixed telecommunications market. Thereby the focus is on the analysis of the competitive conditions that have been established on the German market for voice telephony services. If these retail markets are competitive, there might be a need to remove remaining regulatory provisions. In the new environment of converging markets the future challenge of regulating fixed telecom markets might be to ensure that access to the network and/or services of a potentially dominant provider in a relevant market will satisfy requirements for openness and non-discrimination.}, subject = {Telekommunikationsmarkt}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{TranStaatKreissig2007, author = {Tran, Thanh Ngoc and Staat, Manfred and Kreißig, R.}, title = {Finite element shakedown and limit reliability analysis of thin shells}, year = {2007}, abstract = {A procedure for the evaluation of the failure probability of elastic-plastic thin shell structures is presented.

Tomiyama, Elsevier, Seite 1-22 Current CAD tools are not able to support the conceptual design phase, and none of them provides a consistency analysis for sketches produced by architects. This phase is fundamental and crucial for the whole design and construction process of a building. To give architects a better support, we developed a CAD tool for conceptual design and a knowledge specification tool. The knowledge is specific to one class of buildings and it can be reused. Based on a dynamic and domain-specific knowledge ontology, different types of design rules formalize this knowledge in a graph-based form. An expressive visual language provides a user-friendly, human readable representation. Finally, a consistency analysis tool enables conceptual designs to be checked against this formal conceptual knowledge. In this article, we concentrate on the knowledge specification part. For that, we introduce the concepts and usage of a novel visual language and describe its semantics. To demonstrate the usability of our approach, two graph-based visual tools for knowledge specification and conceptual design are explained.}, subject = {CAD}, language = {en} } @article{ZhubanovaDigelNojimaetal.2007, author = {Zhubanova, Azhar A. and Digel, Ilya and Nojima, H. and Artmann, Gerhard}, title = {The use of bactericidal effects of cluster ions generated by plasma in medical biotechnology}, year = {2007}, abstract = {The most of conventional methods of air purification use the power of a fan to draw in air and pass it through a filter. The problem of bacterial contamination of inner parts of such a type of air conditioners in some cases draws attention towards alternative air-cleaning systems. Some manufacturers offer to use the ozone's bactericidal and deodorizing effects, but the wide spreading of such systems is restricted by the fact that toxic effects of ozone in respect of human beings are well known. In 2000 Sharp Inc. introduced "Plasma Cluster Ions (PCI)" air purification technology, which uses plasma discharge to generate cluster ions (I 0-14 ). This technology has been developed for those customers that are conscious about health and hygiene. In our experiments, we focused on some principal aspects of plasma-generated ions application - time-dependency and irreversibility of bactericidal action, spatial and kinetic characteristics of emitted cluster particles, their chemical targets in the microbial cells.}, subject = {Clusterion}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{StadlerEmbsZerlinetal.2007, author = {Stadler, Andreas M. and Embs, Jan P. and Zerlin, Kay and Digel, Ilya and Artmann, Gerhard and Zaccai, Joe and B{\"u}ldt, Georg}, title = {Temperature transitions of hemoglobin and cytosolic water diffusion in human red blood cells : [poster]}, year = {2007}, abstract = {Background Hemoglobin interactions in red blood cells Hemoglobin dynamics in human red blood cells Diffusion of H2O in red blood cells}, subject = {Erythrozyt}, language = {en} } @article{FoersterLepsaFreundt2007, author = {F{\"o}rster, Arnold and Lepsa, M.

Such an approach could be mandatory for future combined PET and MRI scanners, which probably do not include a transmission facility. T1-weighted MR images were segmented into brain tissue, bone, soft tissue, and sinus; attenuation coefficients corresponding to elemental composition and density as well as to 511 keV photon energy were respectively assigned. Attenuation maps containing up to four compartments were created and forward projected into sinograms with attenuation factors which then were used for AC during reconstruction of FDG-PET data. The commonly used AC based on a radioactive (68Ge) transmission scan served as reference. The reconstructed radioactivity values obtained with the MRI-based AC were about 20\% lower than those obtained with PET-based AC if the skull was not taken into account. Considering the skull the difference was still about 10\%. Our investigations demonstrate the feasibility of a MRI-based AC, but revealed also the necessity of a satisfying delineation of bone thickness which tends to be underestimated in our first approach of T1-weighted MR image segmentation.}, language = {en} } @article{DachwaldOhndorf2007, author = {Dachwald, Bernd and Ohndorf, A.}, title = {1st ACT Global Trajectory Optimisation Competition : Results found at DLR}, series = {Acta Astronautica. 61 (2007), H. 9}, journal = {Acta Astronautica. 61 (2007), H. 9}, isbn = {0094-5765}, pages = {742 -- 752}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{WagnerMolinaBisellietal.2007, author = {Wagner, Torsten and Molina, R. and Biselli, Manfred and Canzoneri, Michele and Schnitzler, Thomas and Yoshinobu, Tatsuo and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {A light-addressable potentiometric sensor system for fast, simultaneous and spatial detection of the metabolic activity of biological cells}, series = {Transducers '07 Eurosensors XXI : digest of technical papers ; the14th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems, June 10-14, 2007, Lyon, France / Gilles Delapierre (Ed.)}, journal = {Transducers '07 Eurosensors XXI : digest of technical papers ; the14th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems, June 10-14, 2007, Lyon, France / Gilles Delapierre (Ed.)}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway}, isbn = {1-4244-0841-5}, pages = {1107 -- 1110}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{ChristiaensAbouzarPoghossianetal.2007, author = {Christiaens, P. and Abouzar, Maryam H. and Poghossian, Arshak and Wagner, Torsten and Bijnens, N. and Williams, O.
