  abstract  = {We present an effective and simple multiscale method for equilibrating Kremer Grest model polymer melts of varying stiffness. In our approach, we progressively equilibrate the melt structure above the tube scale, inside the tube and finally at the monomeric scale. We make use of models designed to be computationally effective at each scale. Density fluctuations in the melt structure above the tube scale are minimized through a Monte Carlo simulated annealing of a lattice polymer model. Subsequently the melt structure below the tube scale is equilibrated via the Rouse dynamics of a force-capped Kremer-Grest model that allows chains to partially interpenetrate. Finally the Kremer-Grest force field is introduced to freeze the topological state and enforce correct monomer packing. We generate 15 melts of 500 chains of 10.000 beads for varying chain stiffness as well as a number of melts with 1.000 chains of 15.000 monomers. To validate the equilibration process we study the time evolution of bulk, collective, and single-chain observables at the monomeric, mesoscopic, and macroscopic length scales. Extension of the present method to longer, branched, or polydisperse chains, and/or larger system sizes is straightforward.},

  abstract  = {Rubber materials filled with reinforcing fillers display nonlinear rheological behavior at small strain amplitudes below γ0 < 0.1. Nevertheless, rheological data are analyzed mostly in terms of linear parameters, such as shear moduli (G′, G″), which loose their physical meaning in the nonlinear regime. In this work styrene butadiene rubber filled with carbon black (CB) under large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) is analyzed in terms of the nonlinear parameter I3/1. Three different CB grades are used and the filler load is varied between 0 and 70 phr. It is found that I3/1(φ) is most sensitive to changes of the total accessible filler surface area at low strain amplitudes (γ0 = 0.32). The addition of up to 70 phr CB leads to an increase of I3/1(φ) by a factor of more than ten. The influence of the measurement temperature on I3/1 is pronounced for CB levels above the percolation threshold.},

  abstract  = {Elastomers are exceptional materials owing to their ability to undergo large deformations before failure. However, due to their very low stiffness, they are not always suitable for industrial applications. Addition of filler particles provides reinforcing effects and thus enhances the material properties that render them more versatile for applications like tyres etc. However, deformation behavior of filled polymers is accompanied by several nonlinear effects like Mullins and Payne effect. To this day, the physical and chemical changes resulting in such nonlinear effect remain an active area of research. In this work, we develop a heterogeneous (or multiphase) constitutive model at the mesoscale explicitly considering filler particle aggregates, elastomeric matrix and their mechanical interaction through an approximate interface layer. The developed constitutive model is used to demonstrate cluster breakage, also, as one of the possible sources for Mullins effect observed in non-crystallizing filled elastomers.},

  abstract  = {The enormous diversity of seed traits is an intriguing feature and critical for the overwhelming success of higher plants. In particular, seed mass is generally regarded to be key for seedling development but is mostly approximated by using scanning methods delivering only two-dimensional data, often termed seed size. However, three-dimensional traits, such as the volume or mass of single seeds, are very rarely determined in routine measurements. Here, we introduce a device named phenoSeeder, which enables the handling and phenotyping of individual seeds of very different sizes. The system consists of a pick-and-place robot and a modular setup of sensors that can be versatilely extended. Basic biometric traits detected for individual seeds are two-dimensional data from projections, three-dimensional data from volumetric measures, and mass, from which seed density is also calculated. Each seed is tracked by an identifier and, after phenotyping, can be planted, sorted, or individually stored for further evaluation or processing (e.g. in routine seed-to-plant tracking pipelines). By investigating seeds of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), rapeseed (Brassica napus), and barley (Hordeum vulgare), we observed that, even for apparently round-shaped seeds of rapeseed, correlations between the projected area and the mass of seeds were much weaker than between volume and mass. This indicates that simple projections may not deliver good proxies for seed mass. Although throughput is limited, we expect that automated seed phenotyping on a single-seed basis can contribute valuable information for applications in a wide range of wild or crop species, including seed classification, seed sorting, and assessment of seed quality.},

  abstract  = {F{\"u}r die Verarbeitung von nat{\"u}rlicher Sprache ist ein wichtiger Zwischenschritt das Parsing, bei dem f{\"u}r S{\"a}tze der nat{\"u}rlichen Sprache Ableitungsb{\"a}ume bestimmt werden. Dieses Verfahren ist vergleichbar zum Parsen formaler Sprachen, wie z. B. das Parsen eines Quelltextes. Die Parsing-Methoden der formalen Sprachen, z. B. Bottom-up-Parser, k{\"o}nnen nicht auf das Parsen der nat{\"u}rlichen Sprache {\"u}bertragen werden, da keine Formalisierung der nat{\"u}rlichen Sprachen existiert [3, 12, 23, 30]. In den ersten Programmen, die nat{\"u}rliche Sprache verarbeiten [32, 41], wurde versucht die nat{\"u}rliche Sprache mit festen Regelmengen zu verarbeiten. Dieser Ansatz stieß jedoch schnell an seine Grenzen, da die Regelmenge nicht vollst{\"a}ndig sowie nicht minimal ist und wegen der ben{\"o}tigten Menge an Regeln schwer zu verwalten ist. Die Korpuslinguistik [22] bot die M{\"o}glichkeit, die Regelmenge durch Supervised-Machine-Learning-Verfahren [2] abzul{\"o}sen. Teil der Korpuslinguistik ist es, große Textkorpora zu erstellen und diese mit sprachlichen Strukturen zu annotieren. Zu diesen Strukturen geh{\"o}ren sowohl die Wortarten als auch die Ableitungsb{\"a}ume der S{\"a}tze. Vorteil dieser Methodik ist es, dass repr{\"a}sentative Daten zur Verf{\"u}gung stehen. Diese Daten werden genutzt, um mit Supervised-Machine-Learning-Verfahren die Gesetzm{\"a}ßigkeiten der nat{\"u}rliche Sprachen zu erlernen. Das Maximum-Entropie-Verfahren ist ein Supervised-Machine-Learning-Verfahren, das genutzt wird, um nat{\"u}rliche Sprache zu erlernen. Ratnaparkhi [25] nutzt Maximum-Entropie, um Ableitungsb{\"a}ume f{\"u}r S{\"a}tze der nat{\"u}rlichen Sprache zu erlernen. Dieses Verfahren macht es m{\"o}glich, die nat{\"u}rliche Sprache (abgebildet als Σ∗) trotz einer fehlenden formalen Grammatik zu parsen.},
