In this study, the kinetic frictional forces at the implant-antler interface were measured experimentally using an optomechanical setup and a stepping motor controller under different axial loads and sliding velocities. The corresponding mean values of the static and kinetic frictional coefficients were within the range of 0.5-0.7 and 0.3-0.5, respectively. An increase in the frictional forces with increasing applied axial loads was registered.

We assessed the effects of temperature on the growth rates of all three species with the objective of developing a model with four differential equations based on the experimental data. The following hypotheses were tested at a theoretical level: Firstly, temperature changes can affect the dynamic behavior of a system by temperature-dependent parameters and interactions and secondly, food web response to temperature cannot be derived from the single species temperature response. The main outcome of the study is that temperature changes affect the parameter range where coexistence is possible within all three species.

Preserving this biodiversity is a great challenge as habitats and environments underlying tremendous changes like climate change and the loss of natural habitats, which are mainly due to anthropogenic influences. The coexistence of numerous species even in homogeneous environments is a stunning feature of natural communities and has been summarized under the term 'paradox of plankton'. Up to now, there are several mechanisms discussed, which may contribute to local and global diversity of organisms. Several interspecific trade offs have been identified maintaining the coexistence of species like their abilities regarding competition and predator avoidance, their capability to disperse in space and time, and their ability to exploit variable resources. Further, micro-evolutionary dynamics supporting the coexistence of species have been added to our knowledge, and deriving from theoretical deterministic models, non-linear dynamics which describe the temporal fluctuation of abundances of organisms. Whereas competition and predation seem to be clue structural elements within interacting organisms, the intrinsic dynamic behavior - by means of temporal changes in abundance - plays an important role regarding coexistence within a community. The present work sheds light on different factors affecting the coexistence of species using experimental microbial model systems consisting of a bacterivorous ciliate as the predator and two bacteria strains as prey organism. Additionally, another experimental setup consisting of two up to five bacteria species competing for one limiting resource was investigated. Highly controllable chemostat systems were established to exclude extrinsic disturbances. According to theoretical analyses I was able to show - experimentally and theoretically - that phenotypic plasticity of one species within a microbial one-predator-two-prey food web enlarges the range of possible coexistence of all species under different dynamic conditions, compared to a food web without phenotypic plasticity. This was accompanied by non-linear (chaotic) population dynamics within all experimental systems showing phenotypic plasticity. The experiments on the interplay of competition, predation and invasion showed that all aspects have an influence on species coexistence. Under undisturbed controlled conditions all aspects were analyzed in detail and in combination. Populations showed oscillations which were shown by quasi-chaotic attractors in phase space diagrams. Competition experiments with two up to five bacteria species competing for one limiting resource showed that all organisms were able to coexist which was mediated by species oscillations entering a regime of chaos. Besides that fact it was found, that the productivity (biomass) as well as the total cell numbers - under the same nutrition supply - increased by an increasing number of species in the experimental systems. Up to now, the occurrence of non-linear dynamics in well controlled experimental studies has been recognized several times and this phenomenon seemed to be more common in natural systems than generally assumed.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FrotscherRaatschenStaat2012, author = {Frotscher, Ralf and Raatschen, Hans-J{\"u}rgen and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Effectiveness of the edge-based smoothed finite element method applied to soft biological tissues}, series = {ESMC-2012 - 8th European Solid Mechanics Conference, Graz, Austria, July 9-13, 2012}, booktitle = {ESMC-2012 - 8th European Solid Mechanics Conference, Graz, Austria, July 9-13, 2012}, editor = {Holzapfel, Gerhard A.}, publisher = {Verlag d.

The aim of this study is to differentiate date palm tree varieties by analysing leaflet cross sections with technical/optical methods and artificial neural networks (ANN). Results Fluorescence microscopy images of leaflet cross sections have been taken from a set of five date palm tree cultivars (Hewlat al Jouf, Khlas, Nabot Soltan, Shishi, Um Raheem). After features extraction from images, the obtained data have been fed in a multilayer perceptron ANN with backpropagation learning algorithm. Conclusions Overall, an accurate result in prediction and differentiation of date palm tree cultivars was achieved with average prediction in tenfold cross-validation is 89.1\% and reached 100\% in one of the best ANN.}, language = {en} } @article{AndingTabazaStaatetal.2013, author = {Anding, Ralf and Tabaza, Ruth and Staat, Manfred and Trenz, Eva and Lohmann, Philipp and Klinge, Uwe and Kirschner-Hermanns, Ruth}, title = {Introducing a method of in vitro testing of different anchoring systems used for female incontinence and prolapse surgery}, series = {BioMed research international}, volume = {Vol. 2013}, journal = {BioMed research international}, issn = {1110-7251 (E-Journal); 2314-6141 (E-Journal); 1110-7243 (Print); 2314-6133 (Print)}, pages = {Article ID 401417}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FrotscherKochRaatschenetal.2014, author = {Frotscher, Ralf and Koch, Jan-Peter and Raatschen, Hans-J{\"u}rgen and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Evaluation of a computational model for drug action on cardiac tissue}, series = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20 - 25, 2014, Barcelona}, booktitle = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20 - 25, 2014, Barcelona}, editor = {Onate, E.}, organization = {World Congress on Computational Mechanics <11, 2014, Barcelona>}, pages = {1 -- 12}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{JungStaatMueller2014, author = {Jung, Alexander and Staat, Manfred and M{\"u}ller, Wolfram}, title = {Optimization of the flight style in ski jumping}, series = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20 - 25, 2014, Barcelona}, booktitle = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20 - 25, 2014, Barcelona}, editor = {Onate, E.}, organization = {World Congress on Computational Mechanics <11, 2014, Barcelona>}, pages = {799 -- 810}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BhattaraiFrotscherSoraetal.2014, author = {Bhattarai, Aroj and Frotscher, Ralf and Sora, M.-C. and Staat, Manfred}, title = {A 3D finite element model of the female pelvic floor for the reconstruction of urinary incontinence}, series = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20-25, 2014, Barcelona}, booktitle = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20-25, 2014, Barcelona}, editor = {Onate, E.}, organization = {World Congress on Computational Mechanics <11, 2014, Barcelona>}, pages = {1 -- 12}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{TranStaat2014, author = {Tran, Thanh Ngoc and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Uncertain multimode failure and limit analysis of shells}, series = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20-25, 2014, Barcelona}, booktitle = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20-25, 2014, Barcelona}, editor = {Onate, E.}, organization = {World Congress on Computational Mechanics <11, 2014, Barcelona>}, pages = {1 -- 12}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DuongStaat2014, author = {Duong, Minh Tuan and Staat, Manfred}, title = {A face-based smoothed finite element method for hyperelastic models and tissue growth}, series = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20-25, 2014, Barcelona}, booktitle = {11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XI) ; 5th European Conference on Computational Mechanics (ECCM V) ; 6th European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (ECFD VI) ; July 20-25, 2014, Barcelona}, editor = {Onate, E.}, organization = {World Congress on Computational Mechanics <11, 2014, Barcelona>}, pages = {1 -- 12}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{TranStaatStavroulakis2014, author = {Tran, Ngoc Trinh and Staat, Manfred and Stavroulakis, G.

Such carbon nanostructured composites were produced using - raw materials based on the products of agricultural waste, such as grape stones, apricot stones, rice husk. These products have a - wide spectrum of application and can be obtained in large quantities. The Institute of Combustion Problems has carried out the work on synthesis of the nanostructured carbon sorbents for multiple applications including the field of biomedicine. The article presents the data on the synthesis and physico-chemical properties of carbonaceous sorbents using physicochemical methods of investigation: separation and purification of biomolecules; isolation of phytohormone - fusicoccin; adsorbent INGO-1 in the form of an adsorption column for blood detoxification, oral (entero) sorbent - INGO-2; the study of efferent and probiotic properties and sorption activity in regard to the lipopolysaccharide (LPS), new biocomposites - based on carbonized rice husk (CRH) and cellular microorganisms; the use of CRH in wound treatment. A new material for blood detoxication (INGO-1) has been obtained. Adsorption of p-cresyl sulfate and indoxyl sulfate has shown that active carbon adsorbent can remove clinically significant level of p-cresyl sulfate and indoxyl sulfate from human plasma. Enterosorbent INGO-2 possesses high adsorption activity in relation to Gram-negative bacteria and their endotoxins. INGO-2 slows down the growth of conditionally pathogenic microorganisms, without having a negative effect on bifido and lactobacteria. The use of enterosorbent INGO-2 for sorption therapy may provide a solution to a complex problem - detoxication of the digestive tract and normalization of the intestinal micro ecology. The immobilized probiotic called "Riso-lact" was registered at the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan as a biologically active food additive. The developed technology is patented and provides production of the medicine in the form of freeze-dried biomass immobilized in vials.}, language = {en} } @article{PhamStaat2014, author = {Pham, Phu Tinh and Staat, Manfred}, title = {FEM-based shakedown analysis of hardening structures}, series = {Asia Pacific journal on computational engineering}, journal = {Asia Pacific journal on computational engineering}, number = {1}, publisher = {SpringerOpen}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {2196-1166 (E-Journal)}, doi = {10.1186/2196-1166-1-4}, pages = {Article No. 4}, year = {2014}, abstract = {This paper develops a new finite element method (FEM)-based upper bound algorithm for limit and shakedown analysis of hardening structures by a direct plasticity method.
