RF simulations using multiring antenna arrays placed behind the bore liner were performed for realistic exposure conditions for body imaging. Simulations were performed for arrays with as few as eight elements and for arrays with high channel counts of up to 48 elements. The B1+ field was evaluated regarding the degrees of freedom for RF shimming in the abdomen. Worst-case specific absorption rate (SARwc ), SAR overestimation in the matrix compression, the number of virtual obser- vation points (VOPs) and SAR efficiency were evaluated. Constrained RF shimming was performed in differently oriented regions of interest in the body, and the devia- tion from a target B1+ field was evaluated. Results show that integrated multiring arrays are able to generate homogeneous B1+ field distributions for large FOVs, espe- cially for coronal/sagittal slices, and thus enable body imaging at 7 T with a clinical workflow; however, a low duty cycle or a high SAR is required to achieve homoge- neous B1+ distributions and to exploit the full potential. In conclusion, integrated arrays allow for high element counts that have high degrees of freedom for the pulse optimization but also produce high SARwc , which reduces the SAR accuracy in the VOP compression for low-SAR protocols, leading to a potential reduction in array performance. Smaller SAR overestimations can increase SAR accuracy, but lead to a high number of VOPs, which increases the computational cost for VOP evaluation and makes online SAR monitoring or pulse optimization challenging. Arrays with interleaved rings showed the best results in the study.}, language = {en} } @article{KowalewskiBragardHueningetal.2023, author = {Kowalewski, Paul and Bragard, Michael and H{\"u}ning, Felix and De Doncker, Rik W.}, title = {An inexpensive Wiegand-sensor-based rotary encoder without rotating magnets for use in electrical drives}, series = {IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement}, volume = {72}, journal = {IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York}, issn = {0018-9456 (Print)}, doi = {10.1109/TIM.2023.3326166}, pages = {10 Seiten}, year = {2023}, abstract = {This paper introduces an inexpensive Wiegand-sensor-based rotary encoder that avoids rotating magnets and is suitable for electrical-drive applications.

These encoders combine the disadvantages of an increased magnet demand and a limited maximal speed due to the centripetal force acting on the rotating magnets. The proposed approach reduces the total demand of permanent magnets drastically. Moreover, the rotating part is manufacturable from a single piece of steel, which makes it very robust and cheap. This work presents the theoretical operating principle of the proposed approach and validates its benefits on a hardware prototype.

The words used to describe teaching goals in CDGs on IT security education do not reflect the whole range of learning outcomes. 2. The word choice is nevertheless different from common language, indicating an intentional use of language. 3. IT security CDGs use different sets of terms to describe learning outcomes, depending on whether they are awareness, training, or education games. The interpretation of the findings is that the reduction to just three types of CDGs reduces the capacity to communicate and think about learning outcomes and consequently reduces the outcomes that are intentionally achieved.}, language = {en} } @article{WolfLuczak1999, author = {Wolf, Martin R. and Luczak, Holger}, title = {Computer Supported Communication and Cooperation - Making Information Aware / Luczak, H. ; Wolf, M.}, series = {Human-computer interaction : proceedings of HCI International '99 (the 8th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction), Munich, Germany, August 22 - 26, 1999}, journal = {Human-computer interaction : proceedings of HCI International '99 (the 8th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction), Munich, Germany, August 22 - 26, 1999}, publisher = {Erlbaum}, address = {Mahwah, NJ}, pages = {298 -- 302}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @article{FerreinDyllaLakemeyeretal.2008, author = {Ferrein, Alexander and Dylla, Frank and Lakemeyer, Gerhard and Murray, Jan}, title = {Approaching a formal soccer theory from behaviour specifications in robotic soccer / Dylla, Frank ; Ferrein, Alexander ; Lakemeyer, Gerhard ; Murray, Jan ; Obst, Oliver ; R{\"o}fer, Thomas ; Schiffer, Stefan ; Stolzenburg, Frieder ; Visser, Ubbo ; Wagner, Tho}, series = {Computers in sport / editors: P Dabnichki}, journal = {Computers in sport / editors: P Dabnichki}, publisher = {WIT Press}, address = {Southampton}, isbn = {978-1-8456-4064-4}, pages = {161 -- 185}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{BooysenRiegerFerrein2011, author = {Booysen, Tracy and Rieger, Michael and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {Towards inexpensive robots for science \& technology teaching and education in Africa}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York}, isbn = {978-1-61284-992-8}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{GspandlPillReipetal.2011, author = {Gspandl, Stephan and Pill, Ingo and Reip, Michael and Steinbauer, Gerald and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {Belief Management for High-Level Robot Programs}, series = {Proceedings of the Twenty-Second International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence [electronic resource] : Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, 16 - 22 July 2011 / sponsored by International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI) and the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI).

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 the best of our knowledge, this is one of only few attempts to use a robot like Pepper not as a tele-teaching tool, but as the teacher itself in order to engage pre-school children with complex robotics contents.}, language = {en} } @article{HoltrupSadeghfamHeuermannetal.2014, author = {Holtrup, S. and Sadeghfam, Arash and Heuermann, Holger and Awakowicz, P.}, title = {Characterization and optimization technique for microwave-driven high-intensity discharge lamps using hot S-parameters}, series = {IEEE transactions on microwave theories and techniques}, volume = {62}, journal = {IEEE transactions on microwave theories and techniques}, number = {10}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York}, issn = {0018-9480}, doi = {10.1109/TMTT.2014.2342652}, pages = {2471 -- 2480}, year = {2014}, abstract = {High-intensity discharge lamps can be driven by radio-frequency signals in the ISM frequency band at 2.45 GHz, using a matching network to transform the impedance of the plasma to the source impedance.

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.

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 ...
