The prototype is characterized in numerical simulations and bench measurements, and the feasibility of plaque imaging at 7 T is demonstrated in first in vivo images. Materials and Methods: The RF phased array coil consists of 8 surface loop coils. To allow imaging of both sides of the neck, the RF array is divided into 2 coil clusters, each with 4 overlapping loop elements. For safety validation, numerical computations of the RF field distribution and the corresponding specific absorption rate were performed on the basis of a heterogeneous human body model. To validate the coil model, maps of the transmit B1+ field were compared between simulation and measurement. In vivo images of a healthy volunteer and a patient (ulcerating plaque and a 50\% stenosis of the right internal carotid artery) were acquired using a 3-dimensional FLASH sequence with a high isotropic spatial resolution of 0.54 mm as well as using pulse-triggered proton density (PD)/T2-weighted turbo spin echo sequences. Results: Measurements of the S-parameters yielded a reflection and isolation of the coil elements of better than -18 and -13 dB, respectively. Measurements of the g-factor indicated good image quality for parallel imaging acceleration factors up to 2.4. A similar distribution and a very good match of the absolute values were found between the measured and simulated B1+ transmit RF field for the validation of the coil model. In vivo images revealed good signal excitation of both sides of the neck and a high vessel-to-background image contrast for the noncontrast-enhanced 3-dimensional FLASH sequence. Imaging at 7 T could depict the extent of stenosis, and revealed the disruption and ulcer of the plaque. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that 2 four-channel transmit/receive RF arrays for each side of the neck is a suitable concept for in vivo MRI of the carotid arteries at 7 Tesla. Further studies are needed to explore and exploit the full potential of 7 T high-field MRI for carotid atherosclerotic plaque imaging.}, language = {en} } @article{KrottGerhardsSkorupaetal.2011, author = {Krott, Daniel and Gerhards, Michael and Skorupa, Sascha and Sander, Volker}, title = {NHiLA - Bridging the Gap Between .NET and UNICORE}, series = {UNICORE Summit 2011 : proceedings, 7-8 July 2011, Torun, Poland / Mathilde Romberg ...

Considering distances of 200 AU for a new mission, one needs a spacecraft travelling at a speed of close to 10 AU/yr in order to keep the mission duration in the range of less than 25 yrs, a transfer time postulated by ESA.Two propulsion options for the mission have been proposed and discussed so far: the solar sail propulsion and the ballistic/radioisotope electric propulsion. As a further alternative, we here investigate a combination of solar-electric propulsion and radioisotope-electric propulsion. The solar-electric propulsion stage consists of six 22 cm diameter "RIT-22"ion thrusters working with a high specific impulse of 7377 s corresponding to a positive grid voltage of 5 kV. Solar power of 53 kW BOM is provided by a light-weight solar array. The REP-stage consists of four space-proven 10 cm diameter "RIT-10" ion thrusters that will be operating one after the other for 9 yrs in total. Four advanced radioisotope generators provide 648 W at BOM. The scientific instrument package is oriented at earlier studies. For its mass and electric power requirement 35 kg and 35 W are assessed, respectively. Optimized trajectory calculations, treated in a separate contribution, are based on our "InTrance" method.The program yields a burn out of the REP stage in a distance of 79.6 AU for a usage of 154 kg of Xe propellant. With a C3 = 45,1 (km/s)2 a heliocentric probe velocity of 10 AU/yr is reached at this distance, provided a close Jupiter gravity assist adds a velocity increment of 2.7 AU/yr. A transfer time of 23.8 yrs results for this scenario requiring about 450 kg Xe for the SEP stage, jettisoned at 3 AU. We interpret the SEP/REP propulsion as a competing alternative to solar sail and ballistic/REP propulsion. Omiting a Jupiter fly-by even allows more launch flexibility, leaving the mission duration in the range of the ESA specification.}, language = {en} } @article{LustfeldHirschfeldReisseletal.2011, author = {Lustfeld, H. and Hirschfeld, J.

Methods MALSE comprises a set of reed sensors, which activate in response to their exposure to a magnetic field. The activation/deactivation of reed sensors was examined by moving them in/out of the fringe field generated by 7TMR. Results The consistency with which individual reed sensors would activate at the same field strength was found to be 100\% for the setup used. All of the reed switches investigated required a substantial drop in ambient magnetic field strength before they deactivated. Conclusions MALSE is a simple concept for alerting MRI staff to a ferromagnetic object being brought into fringe magnetic fields which exceeds MALSEs activation magnetic field.

The prediction of reservoir temperature and production behavior is crucial for success of the proposed geothermal doublet. This work presents the results of a study of the important geothermal and geohydrological issues for the doublet design. In the first phase of the study, the influences of the three-dimensional (3D) structures of anticlines and synclines on the temperature field were examined. A comprehensive petrophysical investigation was performed to build a large scale 3D-model of the reservoir. Several bottomhole temperatures (BHTs), as well as petrophysical logs were used to calibrate the model using thermal conductivity measurements on 50 samples from boreholes in different lithological units in the study area. Profiles and cross sections extracted from the calculated temperature field were used to study the temperature in the surrounding areas of the planned doublet. In the second phase of the project, a detailed 3D numerical reservoir model was set up, with the aim of predicting the evolution of the producer and injector temperatures, and the extent of the cooled area around the injector. The temperature model from the first phase provided the boundary conditions for the reservoir model. Hydraulic parameters for the target horizons, such as porosity and permeability, were taken from data available from the nearby exploration wells. The simulation results are encouraging as no significant thermal breakthrough is predicted. For the originally planned location of the producer, the extracted water temperature is predicted to be around 79 °C, with an almost negligible cooling in the first 50 years of production. When the producer is located shallower parts of the reservoir, the yield water temperatures is lower, starting at ≈76 °C and decreasing to ≈74 °C after 50 years of operation. This comparatively larger decrease in temperature with time is caused by the structural feature of the reservoir, namely a higher dip causes the cooler water to easily move downward. In view of the poor reservoir data, the reservoir simulation model is constructed to allow iterative updates using data assimilation during planned drilling, testing, and production phases. Measurements during an 8 h pumping test carried out in late 2010 suggest that a flow rate of 150 m3 h-1 is achievable. Fluid temperatures of 76.5 °C were measured, which is very close to the predicted value.}, language = {en} } @incollection{MufflerPothSiekeretal.2011, author = {Muffler, Kai and Poth, Sabastian and Sieker, Tim and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Ulber, Roland and Sell, Dieter}, title = {Bio-feedstocks}, series = {Comprehensive biotechnology : principles and practices in industry, agcriculture, medicine and the environment.

Our goal was to reach this distance within the 25 years postulated by ESA for such a mission (which is less ambitious than the 15-year goal set by NASA). Contrary to solar sail concepts and combinations of allistic and electrically propelled flight legs, we have investigated whether the set flight time limit could also be kept with a combination of solar-electric propulsion and a second, RTG-powered upper stage. The used ion engine type was the RIT-22 for the first stage and the RIT-10 for the second stage. Trajectory optimization was carried out with the low-thrust optimization program InTrance, which implements the method of Evolutionary Neurocontrol,using Artificial Neural Networks for spacecraft steering and Evolutionary Algorithms to optimize the Neural Networks' parameter set. Based on a parameter space study, in which the number of thrust units, the unit's specific impulse, and the relative size of the solar power generator were varied, we have chosen one configuration as reference. The transfer time of this reference configuration was 29.6 years and the fastest one, which is technically more challenging, still required 28.3 years. As all flight times of this parameter study were longer than 25 years, we further shortened the transfer time by applying a launcher-provided hyperbolic excess energy up to 49 km2/s2. The resulting minimal flight time for the reference configuration was then 27.8 years. The following, more precise optimization to a launch with the European Ariane 5 ECA rocket reduced the transfer time to 27.5 years. This is the fastest mission design of our study that is flexible enough to allow a launch every year. The inclusion of a fly-by at Jupiter finally resulted in a flight time of 23.8 years,which is below the set transfer-time limit. However, compared to the 27.5-year transfer,this mission design has a significantly reduced launch window and mission flexibility if the escape direction is restricted to the heliosphere's "nose".}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{OlaruKowalskiSethietal.2011, author = {Olaru, Alexandra Maria and Kowalski, Julia and Sethi, Vaishali and Bl{\"u}mich, Bernhard}, title = {Fluid Transport in Porous Media probed by Relaxation-Exchange NMR}, series = {2011 Fall Meeting, AGU, San Francisco, Calif., 5-9 Dec.}, booktitle = {2011 Fall Meeting, AGU, San Francisco, Calif., 5-9 Dec.}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{OosterhuisOehlschlaegerBergetal.2011, author = {Oosterhuis, Koen and {\"O}hlschl{\"a}ger, Peter and Berg, Joost H. van den and Toebes, Mireille and Gomez, Raquel and Schumacher, Ton N. and Haanen, John B.}, title = {Preclinical development of highly effective and safe DNA vaccines directed against HPV 16 E6 and E7}, series = {International Journal of Cancer}, volume = {129}, journal = {International Journal of Cancer}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1097-0215}, pages = {397 -- 406}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{OrzadaBitzSchaeferetal.2011, author = {Orzada, Stephan and Bitz, Andreas and Sch{\"a}fer, Lena C. and Ladd, Susanne C. and Ladd, Mark E. and Maderwald, Stefan}, title = {Open design eight-channel transmit/receive coil for high-resolution and real-time ankle imaging at 7 T}, series = {Medical Physics}, volume = {38}, journal = {Medical Physics}, number = {3}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Hoboken}, issn = {2473-4209}, doi = {10.1118/1.3553399}, pages = {1162 -- 1167}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Purpose: At 1.5 T, real-time MRI of joint movement has been shown to be feasible. However, 7 T, provides higher SNR and thus an improved potential for parallel imaging acceleration. The purpose of this work was to build an open, U-shaped eight-channel transmit/receive microstrip coil for 7 T MRI to enable high-resolution and real-time imaging of the moving ankle joint. Methods: A U-shaped eight-channel transmit/receive array for the human ankle was built.urn:x-wiley:00942405:mp3399:equation:mp3399-math-0001-parameters and urn:x-wiley:00942405:mp3399:equation:mp3399-math-0002-factor were measured. SAR calculations of different ankle postures were performed to ensure patient safety. Inhomogeneities in the transmit field consequent to the open design were compensated for by the use of static RF shimming. High-resolution and real-time imaging was performed in human volunteers. Results: The presented array showed good performance with regard to patient comfort and image quality. High acceleration factors of up to 4 are feasible without visible acceleration artifacts. Reasonable image homogeneity was achieved with RF shimming. Conclusions: Open, noncylindrical designs for transmit/receive coils are practical at 7 T and real-time imaging of the moving joint is feasible with the presented coil design.}, language = {en} } @article{PaczkowskiWeissbeckerSchoeningetal.2011, author = {Paczkowski, Sebastian and Weißbecker, Bernhard and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef and Sch{\"u}tz, Stefan}, title = {Biosensors on the Basis of Insect Olfaction}, series = {Insect biotechnology / Andreas Vilcinskas, ed.}, journal = {Insect biotechnology / Andreas Vilcinskas, ed.}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Dordrecht [u.a.]}, isbn = {978-90-481-9640-1}, pages = {225 -- 240}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ParkElDaibButenwegetal.2011, author = {Park, Jin and El-Daib, Khaled and Butenweg, Christoph and Gellert, Christoph}, title = {A novel macroelement approach for masonry walls}, series = {Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Structural Dynamics, EURODYN 2011 : Leuven, Belgium, 4 - 6 July 2011 / Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, ...

The substrate is a fiber fraction obtained by organosolv pre-treatment of beech wood. For the ethanol production, a co-fermentation by two different yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pachysolen tannophilus) was carried out to convert glucose as well as xylose. Two approaches has been followed: 1. A two step process, in which the hydrolysis of the fiber fraction and the fermentation to product are separated from each other. 2. A process, in which the hydrolysis and the fermentation are carried out in one single process step as simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). Following the first approach, a yield of about 0.15 g ethanol per gram substrate can be reached. Based on the SSF, one process step can be saved, and additionally, the gained yield can be raised up to 0.3 g ethanol per gram substrate.}, language = {en} } @article{PreissLinderWendtetal.2011, author = {Preiß, C. and Linder, Peter and Wendt, K. and Krystek, M. and Digel, Ilya and Gossmann, Matthias and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l and Porst, Dariusz and Kayser, Peter and Bassam, Rasha and Artmann, Gerhard}, title = {Engineering technology for plant physiology and plant stress research}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Plant physiology and plant stress: Plant physiology will be much more important for human mankind because of yield and cultivation limits of crops determined by their resistance to stress.

In the present study we applied radio-frequency (RF) signals of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) to full brain exposed male Wistar rats in order to elaborate putative influences on stress hormone release (corticosteron; CORT and adrenocorticotropic hormone; ACTH) and on hippocampal derived synaptic long-term plasticity (LTP) and depression (LTD) as electrophysiological hallmarks for memory storage and memory consolidation. Exposure was computer controlled providing blind conditions. Nominal brain-averaged specific absorption rates (SAR) as a measure of applied mass-related dissipated RF power were 0, 2, and 10 W/kg over a period of 120 min. Comparison of cage exposed animals revealed, regardless of EMF exposure, significantly increased CORT and ACTH levels which corresponded with generally decreased field potential slopes and amplitudes in hippocampal LTP and LTD. Animals following SAR exposure of 2 W/kg (averaged over the whole brain of 2.3 g tissue mass) did not differ from the sham-exposed group in LTP and LTD experiments. In contrast, a significant reduction in LTP and LTD was observed at the high power rate of SAR (10 W/kg). The results demonstrate that a rate of 2 W/kg displays no adverse impact on LTP and LTD, while 10 W/kg leads to significant effects on the electrophysiological parameters, which can be clearly distinguished from the stress derived background. Our findings suggest that UMTS exposure with SAR in the range of 2 W/kg is not harmful to critical markers for memory storage and memory consolidation, however, an influence of UMTS at high energy absorption rates (10 W/kg) cannot be excluded.}, language = {en} } @article{RaabKappelKraemeretal.2011, author = {Raab, Monika and Kappel, Sven and Kr{\"a}mer, Andrea and Sanhaji, Mourad and Matthess, Yves and Kurunci-Csacsko, Elisabeth and Calzada-Wack, Julia and Rathkolb, Birgit and Rosman, Jan and Adler, Thure and Busch, Dirk H. and Esposito, Irene and Fuchs, Helmut and Gailus-Durner, Val{\´e}rie and Klingenspor, Martin and Wolf, Eckhard and S{\"a}nger, Nicole and Prinz, Florian and Hrabe de Angelis, Martin and Seibler, Jost and Yuan, Juping and Bergmann, Martin and Knecht, Rainald and Kreft, Bertolt and Strebhardt, Klaus}, title = {Toxicity modelling of Plk1-targeted therapies in genetically engineered mice and cultured primary mammalian cells}, series = {Nature Communications}, volume = {2}, journal = {Nature Communications}, number = {395}, publisher = {Nature}, address = {London}, issn = {2041-1723}, doi = {10.1038/ncomms1395}, pages = {1 -- 11}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ReindlButenwegKubalski2011, author = {Reindl, Lukas and Butenweg, Christoph and Kubalski, Thomas}, title = {Numerical simulation of unreinforced masonry walls subject to dynamic out-of-plane loading}, series = {COMPDYN 2011 : ECCOMAS Thematic Conference ; Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering ; 25-28 May, 2011, Corfu, Greece / Eds.: M.
