Despite many attempts to develop therapeutic vaccines no candidate has entered late clinical trials. An interesting approach is a DNA based vaccine encompassing the nucleotide sequence of the E6 and E7 viral oncoproteins. Because both proteins are consistently expressed in HPV infected cells they represent excellent targets for immune therapy. Here we report the development of 8 DNA vaccine candidates consisting of differently rearranged HPV-16 E6 and E7 sequences within one molecule providing all naturally occurring epitopes but supposedly lacking transforming activity. The HPV sequences were fused to the J-domain and the SV40 enhancer in order to increase immune responses. We demonstrate that one out of the 8 vaccine candidates induces very strong cellular E6- and E7- specific cellular immune responses in mice and, as shown in regression experiments, efficiently controls growth of HPV 16 positive syngeneic tumors. This data demonstrates the potential of this vaccine candidate to control persistent HPV 16 infection that may lead to malignant disease. It also suggests that different sequence rearrangements influence the immunogenecity by an as yet unknown mechanism.}, language = {en} } @article{AllefeldBialonski2007, author = {Allefeld, Carsten and Bialonski, Stephan}, title = {Detecting synchronization clusters in multivariate time series via coarse-graining of Markov chains}, series = {Physical Review E}, volume = {76}, journal = {Physical Review E}, number = {6}, issn = {2470-0053}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevE.76.066207}, pages = {066207}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AllalBannisterBuismanetal.2022, author = {Allal, D. and Bannister, R. and Buisman, K. and Capriglione, D. and Di Capua, G. and Garc{\´i}a-Patr{\´o}n, M. and Gatzweiler, Thomas and Gellersen, F. and Harzheim, Thomas and Heuermann, Holger and Hoffmann, J. and Izbrodin, A. and Kuhlmann, K. and Lahbacha, K. and Maffucci, A. and Miele, G. and Mubarak, F. and Salter, M. and Pham, T.D. and Sayegh, A. and Singh, D. and Stein, F. and Zeier, M.}, title = {RF measurements for future communication applications: an overview}, series = {2022 IEEE International Symposium on Measurements \& Networking (M\&N)}, booktitle = {2022 IEEE International Symposium on Measurements \& Networking (M\&N)}, publisher = {IEEE}, isbn = {978-1-6654-8362-9}, issn = {2639-5061}, doi = {10.1109/MN55117.2022.9887740}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2022}, abstract = {In this paper research activities developed within the FutureCom project are presented.

The results are well in line with data obtained using a calibrated reference instrument. The new setup holds for conductivity values spanning almost two orders of magnitude (river versus ocean water) without the need for equivalent circuit modelling. Temperature measurements were performed in four-point geometry with an on-chip platinum RTD (resistance temperature detector) in the temperature range between 2 °C and 40 °C, showing no hysteresis effects between warming and cooling cycles. Although the meander was not shielded against the liquid, the temperature calibration provided equivalent results to low conductive Milli-Q and highly conductive ocean water.

A depth image is computed by calculating the distortion of a known infrared light (IR) pattern which is projected into the scene. While these sensors are great devices they have some limitations. The distance they can measure is limited and they suffer from reflection problems on transparent, shiny, or very matte and absorbing objects. If more than one RGB-D camera is used the IR patterns interfere with each other. This results in a massive loss of depth information. In this paper, we present a simple and powerful method to overcome these problems. We propose a stereo RGB-D camera system which uses the pros of RGB-D cameras and combine them with the pros of stereo camera systems. The idea is to utilize the IR images of each two sensors as a stereo pair to generate a depth map. The IR patterns emitted by IR projectors are exploited here to enhance the dense stereo matching even if the observed objects or surfaces are texture-less or transparent. The resulting disparity map is then fused with the depth map offered by the RGB-D sensor to fill the regions and the holes that appear because of interference, or due to transparent or reflective objects. Our results show that the density of depth information is increased especially for transparent, shiny or matte objects.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AlhwarinFerreinScholl2019, author = {Alhwarin, Faraj and Ferrein, Alexander and Scholl, Ingrid}, title = {An Efficient Hashing Algorithm for NN Problem in HD Spaces}, series = {Lecture Notes in Computer Science}, booktitle = {Lecture Notes in Computer Science}, isbn = {978-303005498-4}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-05499-1_6}, pages = {101 -- 115}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AlhwarinFerreinScholl2018, author = {Alhwarin, Faraj and Ferrein, Alexander and Scholl, Ingrid}, title = {CRVM: Circular Random Variable-based Matcher - A Novel Hashing Method for Fast NN Search in High-dimensional Spaces}, series = {Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Applications and Methods, ICPRAM 2018}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Applications and Methods, ICPRAM 2018}, isbn = {978-989-758-276-9}, doi = {10.5220/0006692802140221}, pages = {214 -- 221}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AlhwarinFerreinGebhardtetal.2015, author = {Alhwarin, Faraj and Ferrein, Alexander and Gebhardt, Andreas and Kallweit, Stephan and Scholl, Ingrid and Tedjasukmana, Osmond Sanjaya}, title = {Improving additive manufacturing by image processing and robotic milling}, series = {2015 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), Aug 24-28, 2015 Gothenburg, Sweden}, booktitle = {2015 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), Aug 24-28, 2015 Gothenburg, Sweden}, doi = {10.1109/CoASE.2015.7294217}, pages = {924 -- 929}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AlhaskirTschescheLinkeetal.2023, author = {Alhaskir, Mohamed and Tschesche, Matteo and Linke, Florian and Schriewer, Elisabeth and Weber, Yvonne and Wolking, Stefan and R{\"o}hrig, Rainer and Koch, Henner and Kutafina, Ekaterina}, title = {ECG matching: an approach to synchronize ECG datasets for data quality comparisons}, series = {Proceedings of the 68th Annual Meeting of the German Association of Medical Informatics, Biometry, and Epidemiology e.V.

Comparing recordings of emerging electrocardiography (ECG) systems to a reference ECG system requires accurate synchronization of data from both devices. Current methods can be inefficient and prone to errors. To address this issue, three algorithms are presented to synchronize two ECG time series from different recording systems: Binned R-peak Correlation, R-R Interval Correlation, and Average R-peak Distance. These algorithms reduce ECG data to their cyclic features, mitigating inefficiencies and minimizing discrepancies between different recording systems. We evaluate the performance of these algorithms using high-quality data and then assess their robustness after manipulating the R-peaks. Our results show that R-R Interval Correlation was the most efficient, whereas the Average R-peak Distance and Binned R-peak Correlation were more robust against noisy data.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AlexopoulosRauSattleretal.2011, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros and Rau, Christoph and Sattler, Johannes, Christoph and Kronhardt, Valentina and Hoffschmidt, Bernhard}, title = {Simulation von Solarturmkraftwerken mit offenem volumetrischen Receiver am Standort Italien}, series = {Forschung und Entwicklung f{\"u}r solarthermische Kraftwerke : 14.

A way to solve these problems is the production of biogas. Biogas is a combustible gas consisting of methane, carbon dioxide and small amounts of other gases and trace elements. Production of biogas through anaerobic digestion of animal manure and slurries as well as of a wide range of digestible organic wastes and agricultural residues, converts these substrates into electricity and heat and offers a natural fertiliser for agriculture. The microbiological process of decomposition of organic matter, in the absence of oxygen takes place in reactors, called digesters. Biogas can be used as a fuel in a gas turbine or burner and can be used in a hybrid solar tower system offering a solution for waste treatment of agricultural and animal residues. A solar tower system consists of a heliostat field, which concentrates direct solar irradiation on an open volumetric central receiver. The receiver heats up ambient air to temperatures of around 700°C. The hot air's heat energy is transferred to a steam Rankine cycle in a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). The steam drives a steam turbine, which in turn drives a generator for producing electricity. In order to increase the operational hours of a solar tower power plant, a heat storage system and/ or hybridization may be considered. The advantage of solar-fossil hybrid power plants, compared to solar-only systems, lies in low additional investment costs due to an adaptable solar share and reduced technical and economical risks. On sunny days the hybrid system operates in a solar-only mode with the central receiver and on cloudy days and at night with the gas turbine only. As an alternative to methane gas, environmentally neutral biogas can be used for operating the gas turbine. Hence, the hybrid system is operated to 100\% from renewable energy sources}, language = {en} } @incollection{Alexopoulos2013, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros}, title = {Biomass technology and bio-fuels: Heating/cooling and power}, series = {Renewable energy systems : theory, innovations, and intelligent applications / eds.: Socrates Kaplanis and Eleni Kaplani}, booktitle = {Renewable energy systems : theory, innovations, and intelligent applications / eds.: Socrates Kaplanis and Eleni Kaplani}, publisher = {Nova Science Publ.}, address = {Hauppauge, NY}, isbn = {9781624177415}, pages = {501 -- 523}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{Alexopoulos2015, author = {Alexopoulos, Spiros}, title = {Simulation model for the transient process behaviour of solar aluminium recycling in a rotary kiln}, series = {Applied Thermal Engineering}, volume = {78}, journal = {Applied Thermal Engineering}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1359-4311}, doi = {10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2015.01.007}, pages = {387 -- 396}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{AletseeBaumann1991, author = {Aletsee, Ludwig and Baumann, Marcus}, title = {A laboratory incubator equipped with facilities to automatically simulate natural irradiance}, series = {Boletim do Instituto Oceanogr{\´a}fico / Universidade de S{\~a}o Paulo}, volume = {Vol. 39}, journal = {Boletim do Instituto Oceanogr{\´a}fico / Universidade de S{\~a}o Paulo}, number = {No. 2}, issn = {1982-436X; 0080-6331}, pages = {155 -- 159}, year = {1991}, language = {en} } @article{AlebouyehSamamiPieperBreitbachetal.2014, author = {Alebouyeh Samami, Behzad and Pieper, Martin and Breitbach, Gerd and Hodapp, Josef}, title = {Heat production in the windings of the stators of electric machines under stationary condition}, series = {Heat and mass transfer}, volume = {50}, journal = {Heat and mass transfer}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Heidelberg}, issn = {0947-7411 (Print) ; 1432-1181 (E-Journal)}, doi = {10.1007/s00231-014-1371-8}, pages = {1707 -- 1716}, year = {2014}, abstract = {In electric machines due to high currents and resistive losses (joule heating) heat is produced. To avoid damages by overheating the design of effective cooling systems is required. Therefore the knowledge of heat sources and heat transfer processes is necessary. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate a good and effective calculation method for the temperature analysis based on homogenization techniques. These methods have been applied for the stator windings in a slot of an electric machine consisting of copper wires and resin. The key quantity here is an effective thermal conductivity, which characterizes the heterogeneous wire resin-arrangement inside the stator slot. To illustrate the applicability of the method, the analysis of a simplified, homogenized model is compared with the detailed analysis of temperature behavior inside a slot of an electric machine according to the heat generation. We considered here only the stationary situation. The achieved numerical results are accurate and show that the applied homogenization technique works in practice. Finally the results of simulations for the two cases, the original model of the slot and the homogenized model chosen for the slot (unit cell), are compared to experimental results.}, language = {en} } @book{AlbrechtWilke2017, author = {Albrecht, Stephan and Wilke, Thomas}, title = {Turin : die Erfindung der Hauptstadt ; fr{\"u}hbarocke Stadtplanung der Herz{\"o}ge von Savoyen}, publisher = {Michael Imhof Verlag}, address = {Petersberg}, isbn = {978-3-7319-0484-7}, pages = {208 Seiten : Illustrationen, Pl{\"a}ne, Karten}, year = {2017}, language = {de} } @masterthesis{Albrecht2024, type = {Bachelor Thesis}, author = {Albrecht, Dustin}, title = {„ARRK Journeys" Filmformat-Konzept}, publisher = {FH Aachen}, address = {Aachen}, pages = {26 Seiten}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Das Projekt "ARRK Journeys" entwickelt ein neues Dokumentarfilm-Format, das darauf abzielt, potenzielle Mitarbeiter f{\"u}r die ARRK Engineering GmbH zu gewinnen Das Ziel des Projekts ist es, die Vielfalt an Karrierem{\"o}glichkeiten bei der ARRK Engineering GmbH aufzuzeigen und die Attraktivit{\"a}t des Unternehmens als Arbeitgeber zu betonen.

However, previous techniques to evaluate NVC required invasive procedures. Retinal vessels may represent an alternative option for non-invasive assessment of NVC. Methods A prototype of an adapted retinal vessel analyzer was used to assess retinal vessel diameter in mice. Dynamic vessel analysis (DVA) included an application of monochromatic flicker light impulses in predefined frequencies for evaluating NVC. All retinae were harvested after DVA and electroretinograms were performed. Results A total of 104 retinal scans were conducted in 21 male mice (90 scans). Quantitative arterial recordings were feasible only in a minority of animals, showing an emphasized reaction to flicker light impulses (8 mice; 14 scans). A characteristic venous response to flicker light, however, could observed in the majority of animals. Repeated measurements resulted in a significant decrease of baseline venous diameter (7 mice; 7 scans, p < 0.05). Ex-vivo electroretinograms, performed after in-vivo DVA, demonstrated a significant reduction of transretinal signaling in animals with repeated DVA (n = 6, p < 0.001). Conclusions To the best of our knowledge, this is the first non-invasive study assessing murine retinal vessel response to flicker light with characteristic changes in NVC. The imaging system can be used for basic research and enables the investigation of retinal vessel dimension and function in control mice and genetically modified animals.}, language = {en} } @article{AlbannaConzenWeissetal.2021, author = {Albanna, Walid and Conzen, Catharina and Weiss, Miriam and Seyfried, Katharina and Kotliar, Konstantin and Schmidt, Tobias Philip and Kuerten, David and Hescheler, J{\"u}rgen and Bruecken, Anne and Schmidt-Trucks{\"a}ss, Arno and Neumaier, Felix and Wiesmann, Martin and Clusmann, Hans and Schubert, Gerrit Alexander}, title = {Non-invasive assessment of neurovascular coupling after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a prospective observational trial using retinal vessel analysis}, series = {Frontiers in Neurology}, volume = {12}, journal = {Frontiers in Neurology}, number = {12}, issn = {1664-2295}, doi = {10.3389/fneur.2021.690183}, pages = {1 -- 15}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a common complication after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and can lead to infarction and poor clinical outcome.

Because cerebral and retinal microvasculature are governed by comparable regulatory mechanisms and may be connected by perivascular pathways, retinal vascular changes are increasingly recognized as a potential surrogate for altered NVC in the brain.

Retinal vessels as an embryological part of the intracranial vasculature are easily accessible for analysis and may hold the key to a new and non-invasive monitoring technique. This investigation aims to determine the feasibility of standardized retinal vessel analysis (RVA) in the context of SAH. Methods In a prospective pilot study, we performed RVA in six patients awake and cooperative with SAH in the acute phase (day 2-14) and eight patients at the time of follow-up (mean 4.6±1.7months after SAH), and included 33 age-matched healthy controls. Data was acquired using a manoeuvrable Dynamic Vessel Analyzer (Imedos Systems UG, Jena) for examination of retinal vessel dimension and neurovascular coupling. Results Image quality was satisfactory in the majority of cases (93.3\%). In the acute phase after SAH, retinal arteries were significantly dilated when compared to the control group (124.2±4.3MU vs 110.9±11.4MU, p<0.01), a difference that persisted to a lesser extent in the later stage of the disease (122.7±17.2MU, p<0.05). Testing for neurovascular coupling showed a trend towards impaired primary vasodilation and secondary vasoconstriction (p = 0.08, p = 0.09 resp.) initially and partial recovery at the time of follow-up, indicating a relative improvement in a time-dependent fashion. Conclusion RVA is technically feasible in patients with SAH and can detect fluctuations in vessel diameter and autoregulation even in less severely affected patients. Preliminary data suggests potential for RVA as a new and non-invasive tool for advanced SAH monitoring, but clinical relevance and prognostic value will have to be determined in a larger cohort.}, language = {en} } @misc{AlKaidyTippkoetterUlber2016, author = {Al-Kaidy, Huschyar and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Vorrichtung und Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Kontaktwinkels eines Fl{\"u}ssigk{\"o}rpers mit einer Festk{\"o}rperoberfl{\"a}che}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Kontaktwinkels eines fl{\"u}ssigen oder mit Fl{\"u}ssigkeit gef{\"u}llten K{\"o}rpers.
