Results ECG was susceptible to severe distortions at 7.0 T. POX and ACT provided waveforms free of interferences from electromagnetic fields or from magneto-hydrodynamic effects. Frequent R-wave mis-registration occurred in ECG-triggered acquisitions with a failure rate of up to 30\% resulting in cardiac motion induced artifacts. ACT and POX triggering produced images free of cardiac motion artefacts. ECG showed a severe jitter in the R-wave detection. POX also showed a trigger jitter of approximately Δt = 72 ms which is equivalent to two cardiac phases. ACT showed a jitter of approximately Δt = 5 ms only. ECG waveforms revealed a standard deviation for the cardiac trigger offset larger than that observed for ACT or POX waveforms. Image quality assessment showed that ACT substantially improved image quality as compared to ECG (image quality score at end-diastole: ECG = 1.7 ± 0.5, ACT = 2.4 ± 0.5, p = 0.04) while the comparison between ECG vs. POX gated acquisitions showed no significant differences in image quality (image quality score: ECG = 1.7 ± 0.5, POX = 2.0 ± 0.5, p = 0.34). Conclusions The applicability of acoustic triggering for cardiac CINE imaging at 7.0 T was demonstrated. ACT's trigger reliability and fidelity are superior to that of ECG and POX.

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. MALSE can easily be attached to ferromagnetic objects within the vicinity of a scanner, thus creating a barrier for hazardous situations induced by ferromagnetic parts which should not enter the vicinity of an MR-system to occur.}, language = {en} } @article{RitzPisarczykSachtlebenetal.2014, author = {Ritz, Thomas and Pisarczyk, Rafael and Sachtleben, Johanna and Leßenich, Nina}, title = {Usability Engineering maßgeschneidert : Modellbaukasten zur Entwicklung gebrauchstauglicher mobiler Software}, series = {Wissenschaft trifft Praxis}, volume = {1}, journal = {Wissenschaft trifft Praxis}, number = {1}, publisher = {Begleitforschung Mittelstand-Digital c/o WIK-Consult GmbH}, address = {Bad Honnef}, issn = {2198-8544 (Print)}, pages = {79 -- 88}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @article{WallenbornRitz2014, author = {Wallenborn, Ramona and Ritz, Thomas}, title = {Mobilit{\"a}t miteinander teilen : st{\"a}dtisches eCarsharing in einer vernetzten Gesellschaft ; [vernetztes Fahren von morgen]}, series = {Neue Mobilit{\"a}t : das Magazin vom Bundesverband eMobilit{\"a}t}, volume = {5}, journal = {Neue Mobilit{\"a}t : das Magazin vom Bundesverband eMobilit{\"a}t}, number = {14 (Herbstausg.)}, publisher = {Bundesverband eMobilit{\"a}t BEM}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {2191-5636}, pages = {92 -- 95}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @article{DieringerRenzLindeletal.2011, author = {Dieringer, Matthias A. and Renz, Wolfgang and Lindel, Tomasz D. and Seifert, Frank and Frauenrath, Tobias and von Knobelsdorf-Brenkenhoff, Florian and Waiczies, Helmar and Hoffmann, Werner and Rieger, Jan and Pfeiffer, Harald and Ittermann, Bernd and Schulz-Menger, Jeanette and Niendorf, Thoralf}, title = {Design and application of a four-channel transmit/receive surface coil for functional cardiac imaging at 7T}, series = {Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging}, volume = {33}, journal = {Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging}, number = {3}, publisher = {Wiley-Liss}, address = {New York}, issn = {1522-2586}, doi = {10.1002/jmri.22451}, pages = {736 -- 741}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Purpose To design and evaluate a four-channel cardiac transceiver coil array for functional cardiac imaging at 7T.

Materials and Methods: The MHD effect was scrutinized using a pulsatile flow phantom at B0 = 7.0 T. MHD effects were examined in vivo in healthy volunteers (n = 10) for B0 ranging from 0.05-7.0 T. Noncontrast-enhanced MR angiography (MRA) of the carotids was performed using a gated steady-state free-precession (SSFP) imaging technique in conjunction with electrocardiogram (ECG) and MHD synchronization. Results: The MHD potential correlates with flow velocities derived from phase contrast MRI. MHD voltages depend on the orientation between B0 and the flow of a conductive fluid. An increase in the interelectrode spacing along the flow increases the MHD potential. In vivo measurement of the MHD effect provides peak voltages of 1.5 mV for surface areas close to the common carotid artery at B0 = 7.0 T. Synchronization of MRI with the cardiac cycle using MHD triggering is feasible. MHD triggered MRA of the carotids at 3.0 T showed an overall image quality and richness of anatomic detail, which is comparable to ECG-triggered MRAs. Conclusion: This feasibility study demonstrates the use of MHD effects for synchronization of MR acquisitions with the cardiac cycle. J. Magn. Reson.

The array's suitability for accelerated high spatial resolution two-dimensional (2D) FLASH CINE imaging of the heart was examined in a volunteer study. Results Transmission field adjustments and RF characteristics were found to be suitable for the volunteer study. The signal-to-noise intrinsic to 7.0T together with the coil performance afforded a spatial resolution of 1.1 × 1.1 × 2.5 mm3 for 2D CINE FLASH MRI, which is by a factor of 6 superior to standardized CINE protocols used in clinical practice at 1.5T.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) that are labelled with 197m/gHg could be a helpful tool for radiation treatment of glioblastoma multiforme when infused into the surgical cavity after resection to prevent recurrence. To produce such AuNPs, 197m/gHg was embedded into pristine AuNPs. Two different syntheses were tested starting from irradiated gold containing trace amounts of 197m/gHg. When sodium citrate was used as reducing agent, no 197m/gHg labelled AuNPs were formed, but with tannic acid, 197m/gHg labeled AuNPs were produced.

One of the main challenges of this effort is to explain complex robotics contents in a way that pre-school children could follow the basic principles and ideas using examples from their world of experience. What sets apart our effort from other work is that part of the lecturing is actually done by a robot itself and that a quiz at the end of the lesson is done using robots as well. The humanoid robot Pepper from Softbank, which is a great platform for human-robot interaction experiments, was used to present a lecture on robotics by reading out the contents to the children making use of its speech synthesis capability. A quiz in a Runaround-game-show style after the lecture activated the children to recap the contents they acquired about how mobile robots work in principle. In this quiz, two LEGO Mindstorm EV3 robots were used to implement a strongly interactive scenario. Besides the thrill of being exposed to a mobile robot that would also react to the children, they were very excited and at the same time very concentrated. We got very positive feedback from the children as well as from their educators.

To achieve an optimal operating condition, a good characterization of the lamp in terms of radio frequency equivalent circuits under operating conditions is necessary, enabling the design of an efficient matching network. This paper presents the characterization technique for such lamps and presents the design of the required matching network. For the characterization, a high-intensity discharge lamp was driven by a monofrequent large signal at 2.45 GHz, whereas a frequency sweep over 300 MHz was performed across this signal to measure so-called small-signal hot S-parameters using a vector network analyzer. These parameters are then used as an equivalent load in a circuit simulator to design an appropriate matching network. Using the measured data as a black-box model in the simulation results in a quick and efficient method to simulate and design efficient matching networks in spite of the complex plasma behavior.

Compared with other electrodeless lamp systems, no cavity has to be used and a reduction in the input power is achieved. Therefore, this lamp is an alternative to the halogen incandescent lamp for domestic lighting. To serve the demands of domestic lighting, the filling of the lamp is optimized over all other resulting requirements, such as high efficacy at low induced powers and fast startups. A workflow to develop RF-driven plasma applications is presented, which makes use of the hot S-parameter technique. Descriptions of the fitting process inside a circuit and FEM simulator are given. Results of the combined ignition and operation network from simulations and measurements are compared. An initial prototype is built and measurements of the lamp's lighting properties are presented along with an investigation of the efficacy optimizations using large signal amplitude modulation. With this lamp, an efficacy of 135 lmW -1 is achieved.}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannSchiek1997, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Schiek, Burkhard}, title = {Line Network Network (LNN): an alternative in-fixture calibration procedure}, series = {IEEE transactions on microwave theory and techniques : MTT ; a publication of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society. 45 (1997), H. 3}, journal = {IEEE transactions on microwave theory and techniques : MTT ; a publication of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society. 45 (1997), H. 3}, isbn = {0018-9480}, pages = {408 -- 413}, year = {1997}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannPetersSchmitzetal.2005, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Peters, N. and Schmitz, T. and Sadeghfam, Arash}, title = {Concept of Balanced Antennas with Load-Invariant Base Impedance Using a Two Element LC-Coupler.

Over the years, several prototypes for game-based applications have been proposed, that follow different approaches in content selection, presentation, and game mechanics. In this paper, a literature and product review of existing learning games is presented. Based on research papers and accessible applications, an in-depth analysis was conducted, encompassing target groups, educational contexts, learning goals based on Bloom's Revised Taxonomy, and learning content. As a result of this review, we created the publications on games (POG) data set for the domain of anti-phishing education. While there are games that can convey factual and conceptual knowledge, we find that most games are either unavailable, fail to convey procedural knowledge or lack technical depth. Thus, we identify potential areas of improvement for games suitable for end-users in informal learning contexts.}, language = {en} } @article{SchoppRohrbachLangeretal.2024, author = {Schopp, Christoph and Rohrbach, Felix and Langer, Luc and Heuermann, Holger}, title = {Detection of welding wire length by active S11 measurement}, series = {IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science}, journal = {IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science}, number = {Early Access}, publisher = {IEEE}, issn = {0093-3813 (Print)}, doi = {10.1109/TPS.2024.3356659}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2024}, abstract = {A novel method to determine the extruded length of a metallic wire for a directed energy deposition (DED) process using a microwave (MW) plasma jet with a straight-through wire feed is presented. The method is based on the relative comparison of the measured frequency response obtained by the large-signal scattering parameter (Hot-S) technique. In the practical working range, repeatability of less than 6\% for a nonactive plasma and 9\% for the active plasma state is found. Measurements are conducted with a focus on a simple solution to decrease the processing time and reduce the integration time of the process into the existing hardware. It is shown that monitoring a single frequency for magnitude and phase changes is sufficient to achieve good accuracy. A combination of different measurement values to determine the length is possible. The applicability to different diameter of the same material is shown as well as a contact detection of the wire and metallic substrate.}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannSchiek1993, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Schiek, B.}, title = {Procedures for the Determination of the Scattering Parameters for Network Analyzer Calibration}, series = {IEEE transactions on instrumentation and measurement : IM / Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Instrumentation and Measurement Group. 42 (1993), H. 2}, journal = {IEEE transactions on instrumentation and measurement : IM / Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Instrumentation and Measurement Group. 42 (1993), H. 2}, isbn = {0018-9456}, pages = {528 -- 531}, year = {1993}, language = {en} } @article{FerreinBeckLakemeyer2009, author = {Ferrein, Alexander and Beck, Daniel and Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, title = {Landmark-Based Representations for Navigating Holonomic Soccer Robots / Beck, Daniel ; Ferrein, Alexander ; Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, series = {RoboCup 2008 : robot soccer world cup XII / Luca Iocchi ...
