The BHE with arbitrary length can be either coaxial or double U-shaped. It is particularly suitable for modeling deep BHEs which contain varying pipe diameters and materials. Usually, in numerical simulations, a fine discretization of the BHE assemblage is required, due to the large geometric aspect ratios involved. This yields large models and long simulation times. The approach avoids this problem by considering heat transport between fluid and the soil through pipes and grout via thermal resistances. Therefore, the simulation time can be significantly reduced. The coupling with SHEMAT is realized by introducing an effective heat generation. Due to this connection, it is possible to consider heterogeneous geological models, as well as the influence of groundwater flow. This is particularly interesting when studying the long term behavior of a single BHE or a BHE field. Heating and cooling loads can enter the model with an arbitrary interval, e.g. from hourly to monthly values. When dealing with large BHE fields, computing times can be further significantly reduced by focusing on the temperature field around the BHEs, without explicitly modeling inlet and outlet temperatures. This allows to determine the possible migration of cold and warm plumes due to groundwater flow, which is of particular importance in urban areas with a high BHE installation density. The model is validated against the existing BHE modeling codes EWS and EED. A comparison with monitoring data from a deep BHE in Switzerland shows a good agreement. Synthetic examples demonstrate the field of application of this model.}, language = {en} } @article{KobusBitzUdenetal.2012, author = {Kobus, Thiele and Bitz, Andreas and Uden, Mark J. van and Lagemaat, Miram W. and Rothgang, Eva and Orzada, Stephan and Heerschap, Arend and Scheenen, Tom W.

The sensitivity of a magnetic field strength of 7 T might enable 3D 31P MR spectroscopic imaging with relevant spatial resolution in a clinically acceptable measurement time. To this end, a 31P endorectal coil was developed and combined with an eight-channel 1H body-array coil to relate metabolic information to anatomical location. An extensive safety validation was performed to evaluate the specific absorption rate, the radiofrequency field distribution, and the temperature distribution of both coils. This validation consisted of detailed Finite Integration Technique simulations, confirmed by MR thermometry and Burn:x-wiley:07403194:media:MRM24175:tex2gif-stack-1 measurements in a phantom and in vivo temperature measurements. The safety studies demonstrated that the presence of the 31P endorectal coil had no influence on the specific absorption rate levels and temperature distribution of the external eight-channel 1H array coil. To stay within a 10 g averaged local specific absorption rate of 10 W/kg, a maximum time-averaged input power of 33 W for the 1H array coil was allowed. For transmitting with the 31P endorectal coil, our safety limit of less than 1°C temperature increase in vivo during a 15-min MR spectroscopic imaging experiment was reached at a time-averaged input power of 1.9 W. With this power setting, a second in vivo measurement was performed on a healthy volunteer. Using adiabatic excitation, 3D 31P MR spectroscopic imaging produced spectra from the entire prostate in 18 min with a spatial resolution of 4 cm3. The spectral resolution enabled the separate detection of phosphocholine, phosphoethanolamine, inorganic phosphate, and other metabolites that could play an important role in the characterization of prostate cancer.}, language = {en} } @book{Bialonski2012, author = {Bialonski, Stephan}, title = {Inferring complex networks from time series of dynamical systems: Pitfalls, misinterpretations, and possible solutions}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}ts- und Landesbibliothek Bonn}, address = {Bonn}, pages = {Online-Ausgabe (III, 135 S. : Ill., graph.

The effect of tissue preservation condition is an important factor which should be taken into account for protracted biomechanical tests. In this work, tension tests were conducted for a large number of tissue specimens from twenty pigs divided into two groups of 10. Concretely, the first group was tested in fresh state; the other one was tested after a freeze-thaw cycle which simulates the conservation conditions before biomechanical experiments. A modified Fung model for isotropic behavior was adopted for the curve fitting of each kind of tissues. Experimental results show strong effects of the realistic freeze-thaw cycle on the capsule of elastin-rich spleen but negligible effects on the liver which virtually contains no elastin. This different behavior could be explained by the autolysis of elastin by elastolytic enzymes during the warmer period after thawing. Realistic biomechanical properties of elastin-rich organs can only be expected if really fresh tissue is tested. The observations are supported by tests of intestines.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SauerbornArshadiRohrmoser2012, author = {Sauerborn, Markus and Arshadi, S. and Rohrmoser, R.}, title = {Influence of clouds and aerosols to the haze of the sunshape}, series = {30th ISES Biennial Solar World Congress 2011 : Kassel, Germany, 28 August - 2 September 2011.

The key element of the method is a rotating thin tungsten wire, which intersects the beam transversely on its axis and collects part of the current by itself. The signals, which are registered in the DIABEAM as a voltage, were taken in the form of amplitude. The conversion of the probe current into the distribution along the beam radius was realised using the Abel's method. A voltage-current characteristic was built for the beam current. The local electron density as well as the electron temperature, the floating potential and the plasma potential were measured and calculated by means of this characteristic.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BeckerEggertHeddieretal.2012, author = {Becker, J{\"o}rg and Eggert, Mathias and Heddier, Marcel and Knackstedt, Ralf}, title = {Merging Conceptual Modeling and Law for Legally Compliant Information Systems Design - A Framework-Based Research Agenda}, series = {45th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences 2012}, booktitle = {45th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences 2012}, isbn = {978-0-7695-4525-7}, doi = {10.1109/HICSS.2012.428}, pages = {5241 -- 5248}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{LustfeldPithanReissel2012, author = {Lustfeld, H. and Pithan, C. and Reißel, Martin}, title = {Metallic electrolyte composites in the framework of the brick-layer model}, series = {Journal of the European Ceramic Society}, volume = {32}, journal = {Journal of the European Ceramic Society}, number = {4}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0955-2219}, doi = {10.1016/j.jeurceramsoc.2011.10.017}, pages = {859 -- 864}, year = {2012}, abstract = {It is well known that the already large dielectric constants of some electrolytes like BaTiO₃ can be enhanced further by adding metallic (e.g. Ni, Cu or Ag) nanoparticles. The enhancement can be quite large, a factor of more than 1000 is possible. The consequences for the properties will be discussed in the present paper applying a brick-layer model (BLM) for calculating dc-resistivities of thin layers and a modified one (PBLM) that includes percolation for calculating dielectric properties of these materials. The PBLM results in an at least qualitative description and understanding of the physical phenomena: This model gives an explanation for the steep increase of the dielectric constant below the percolation threshold and why this increase is connected to a dramatic decrease of the breakdown voltage as well as the ability of storing electrical energy.

Because of the differences in the multiplicity and substrate specificity of CYP2D family members among species, it is difficult to predict pathways of human CYP2D6-dependent drug metabolism on the basis of animal studies. To create animal models that reflect the human situation more closely and that allow an in vivo assessment of the consequences of differential CYP2D6 drug metabolism, we have developed a novel straightforward approach to delete the entire murine Cyp2d gene cluster and replace it with allelic variants of human CYP2D6. By using this approach, we have generated mouse lines expressing the two frequent human protein isoforms CYP2D6.1 and CYP2D6.2 and an as yet undescribed variant of this enzyme, as well as a Cyp2d cluster knockout mouse. We demonstrate that the various transgenic mouse lines cover a wide spectrum of different human CYP2D6 metabolizer phenotypes. The novel humanization strategy described here provides a robust approach for the expression of different CYP2D6 allelic variants in transgenic mice and thus can help to evaluate potential CYP2D6-dependent interindividual differences in drug response in the context of personalized medicine.}, language = {en} } @article{ReisgenSchleserMokrovetal.2012, author = {Reisgen, Uwe and Schleser, Markus and Mokrov, Oleg and Zabirov, Alexander and F{\"u}ssel, Uwe and Schnick, Michael and Hertel, Martin and Jaeckel, Sebastian}, title = {Modellierung und Visualisierung der MSG-Lichtbogenprozesse}, series = {Schweissen und Schneiden : Fachzeitschrift f{\"u}r Schweißen und verwandte Verfahren}, volume = {64}, journal = {Schweissen und Schneiden : Fachzeitschrift f{\"u}r Schweißen und verwandte Verfahren}, number = {4}, publisher = {DVS Verlag}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {0036-7184}, pages = {166 -- 174}, year = {2012}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{AlexopoulosRauHoffschmidtetal.2012, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros and Rau, Christoph and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard and Breitbach, Gerd and Latzke, Markus}, title = {Modelling and validation of a transient heat recovery steam generator of the solar tower power plant Juelich}, series = {Eurosun 2012 : Solar energy for a brighter future : conference proceedings : Rijeka, 18.-22.09.2012}, booktitle = {Eurosun 2012 : Solar energy for a brighter future : conference proceedings : Rijeka, 18.-22.09.2012}, address = {Rijeka}, pages = {ID 97}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{ReisgenSchleserMokrovetal.2012, author = {Reisgen, Uwe and Schleser, Markus and Mokrov, Oleg and Zabirov, Alexander and F{\"u}ssel, Uwe and Schnick, Michael and Hertel, Martin and Jaeckel, Sebastian}, title = {Modelling and visualisation of the GMA process}, series = {Welding and Cutting}, volume = {11}, journal = {Welding and Cutting}, number = {4}, publisher = {DVS Verlag}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {1612-3433}, pages = {242 -- 249}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{BohrnStuetzFuchsetal.2012, author = {Bohrn, U. and St{\"u}tz, E. and Fuchs, K. and Fleischer, M. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Wagner, P.}, title = {Monitoring of irritant gas using a whole-cell-based sensor system}, series = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical}, volume = {175}, journal = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0925-4005}, doi = {10.1016/j.snb.2012.05.088}, pages = {208 -- 217}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Cell-based sensors for the detection of gases have long been underrepresented, due to the cellular requirement of being cultured in a liquid environment.

With the development of MiniSlings and special meshes using less alloplastic material anchorage systems become more important to keep devices in place and to put some tension especially on the MiniSlings. To date, there are many different systems of MiniSlings of different companies on the market which differ in the structure of the used meshes and anchors. A new objective measurement method to compare different properties of MiniSling systems (mesh and anchor) is presented in this article. Ballistic gelatine acts as soft tissue surrogate. Significant differences in parameters like pull-out strength of anchors or shrinkage of meshes under loading conditions have been determined. The form and size of the anchors as well as the structural stability of the meshes are decisive for a proper integration. The tested anchorings sytems showed markedly different mechanical function at their respective load bearing capacity. As the stable fixation of the device in tissue is a prerequisite for a permanet reinforcement, the proposed test system permits further optimisation of anchor and mesh devices to improve the success of the surgical treatment}, language = {en} } @article{IkenKirsanovLeginetal.2012, author = {Iken, Heiko and Kirsanov, D. and Legin, A. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Novel Thin-Film Polymeric Materials for the Detection of Heavy Metals}, series = {Procedia Engineering}, journal = {Procedia Engineering}, number = {47}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1877-7058}, doi = {10.1016/j.proeng.2012.09.148}, pages = {322 -- 325}, year = {2012}, abstract = {A variety of transition metals, e.g., copper, zinc, cadmium, lead, etc. are widely used in industry as components for wires, coatings, alloys, batteries, paints and so on.
