Being a central element of the drive train, they are relevant for the efficiency and durability of motor vehicles. In this work, we present a new approach for gearbox design: Modeling the design problem as a mixed-integer nonlinear program (MINLP) allows us to create gearbox designs from scratch for arbitrary requirements and—given enough time—to compute provably globally optimal designs for a given objective. We show how different degrees of freedom influence the runtime and present an exemplary solution.}, language = {en} } @article{AlexopoulosHoffschmidt2017, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard}, title = {Advances in solar tower technology}, series = {Wiley interdisciplinary reviews : Energy and Environment : WIREs}, volume = {6}, journal = {Wiley interdisciplinary reviews : Energy and Environment : WIREs}, number = {1}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {2041-840X}, doi = {10.1002/wene.217}, pages = {1 -- 19}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{AlbannaLuekeSjapicetal.2017, author = {Albanna, Walid and Lueke, Jan Niklas and Sjapic, Volha and Kotliar, Konstantin and Hescheler, J{\"u}rgen and Clusmann, Hans and Sjapic, Sergej and Alpdogan, Serdan and Schneider, Toni and Schubert, Gerrit Alexander and Neumaier, Felix}, title = {Electroretinographic Assessment of Inner Retinal Signaling in the Isolated and Superfused Murine Retina}, series = {Current Eye Research}, journal = {Current Eye Research}, number = {Article in press}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, address = {London}, issn = {1460-2202}, doi = {10.1080/02713683.2017.1339807}, pages = {1 -- 9}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AbelPerezVianaCiritsisetal.2017, author = {Abel, Alexander and P{\´e}rez-Viana, Daniel and Ciritsis, Bernard and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Prevention of femur neck fractures through femoroplasty}, series = {2nd YRA MedTech Symposium 2017 : June 8th - 9th / 2017 / Hochschule Ruhr-West}, booktitle = {2nd YRA MedTech Symposium 2017 : June 8th - 9th / 2017 / Hochschule Ruhr-West}, editor = {Erni, Daniel and Fischerauer, Alice and Himmel, J{\"o}rg and Seeger, Thomas and Thelen, Klaus}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Duisburg-Essen}, address = {Duisburg}, organization = {MedTech Symposium}, isbn = {978-3-9814801-9-1}, doi = {10.17185/duepublico/43984}, pages = {114 -- 115}, year = {2017}, language = {en} }
