The algorithms not only ensure operator safety by monitoring the fuel cell and connected components, but also contribute to extending the health of the fuel cell, its durability and safe operation over its lifetime. While sensors are used to provide peripheral data surrounding the fuel cell, the internal states of the fuel cell cannot be directly measured. To overcome this restriction, Kalman Filter has been implemented as an internal state observer. Other safety conditions are evaluated using real-time data from every connected sensor and corrective actions automatically take place to ensure safety. The algorithms discussed in this paper have been validated thorough Model-in-the-Loop (MiL) tests as well as practical validation at a dedicated test bench.}, language = {en} } @misc{KeimerGirbigMayntzetal.2022, author = {Keimer, Jona and Girbig, Leo and Mayntz, Joscha and Tegtmeyer, Philipp and Wendland, Frederik and Dahman, Peter and Fisher, Alex and Dorrington, Graham}, title = {Flight mission optimization for eco-efficiency in consideration of electric regeneration and atmospheric conditions}, series = {AIAA AVIATION 2022 Forum}, journal = {AIAA AVIATION 2022 Forum}, publisher = {AIAA}, address = {Reston, Va.}, doi = {10.2514/6.2022-4118}, year = {2022}, abstract = {The development and operation of hybrid or purely electrically powered aircraft in regional air mobility is a significant challenge for the entire aviation sector. This technology is expected to lead to substantial advances in flight performance, energy efficiency, reliability, safety, noise reduction, and exhaust emissions. Nevertheless, any consumed energy results in heat or carbon dioxide emissions and limited electric energy storage capabilities suppress commercial use. Therefore, the significant challenges to achieving eco-efficient aviation are increased aircraft efficiency, the development of new energy storage technologies, and the optimization of flight operations. Two major approaches for higher eco-efficiency are identified: The first one, is to take horizontal and vertical atmospheric motion phenomena into account. Where, in particular, atmospheric waves hold exciting potential. The second one is the use of the regeneration ability of electric aircraft. The fusion of both strategies is expected to improve efficiency. The objective is to reduce energy consumption during flight while not neglecting commercial usability and convenient flight characteristics. Therefore, an optimized control problem based on a general aviation class aircraft has to be developed and validated by flight experiments. The formulated approach enables a development of detailed knowledge of the potential and limitations of optimizing flight missions, considering the capability of regeneration and atmospheric influences to increase efficiency and range.}, language = {en} } @misc{BraunKrafftTippkoetter2022, author = {Braun, Lena and Krafft, Simone and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils}, title = {Combined supercritical carbon dioxide extraction and chromatography of the algae fatty linoleic and linolenic acid}, series = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, volume = {94}, journal = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, number = {9}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {0009-286X}, doi = {10.1002/cite.202255308}, pages = {1304}, year = {2022}, abstract = {A method for the integrated extraction and separation of fatty acids from algae using supercritical CO2 is presented. Desmodesmus obliquus and Chlorella sorokiniana were used as algae. First, a method for chromatographic separation of fatty acids of different degrees of saturation was established and optimized. Then, an integrated method for supercritical extraction was developed for both algal species. It was also verified whether prior cell disruption was beneficial for extraction. In developing the method for chromatographic separation, statistical experimental design was used to determine the optimal parameter settings. The methanol content in the mobile phase proved to be the most important parameter for successful separation of the three unsaturated fatty acids oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid. Supercritical extraction with dried algae showed that about four times more fatty acids can be extracted from C. sorokiniana relative to the dry mass used.}, language = {en} } @article{PennerUsherovichNiedermeieretal.2022, author = {Penner, Crystal and Usherovich, Samuel and Niedermeier, Jana and B{\´e}langer-Champagne, Camille and Trinczek, Michael and Paulßen, Elisabeth and Hoehr, Cornelia}, title = {Organic Scintillator-Fibre Sensors for Proton Therapy Dosimetry: SCSF-3HF and EJ-260}, series = {electronics}, volume = {12}, journal = {electronics}, number = {1}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {2079-9292}, doi = {10.3390/electronics12010011}, pages = {12 Seiten}, year = {2022}, abstract = {In proton therapy, the dose from secondary neutrons to the patient can contribute to side effects and the creation of secondary cancer. A simple and fast detection system to distinguish between dose from protons and neutrons both in pretreatment verification as well as potentially in vivo monitoring is needed to minimize dose from secondary neutrons. Two 3 mm long, 1 mm diameter organic scintillators were tested for candidacy to be used in a proton-neutron discrimination detector. The SCSF-3HF (1500) scintillating fibre (Kuraray Co. Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan) and EJ-260 plastic scintillator (Eljen Technology, Sweetwater, TX, USA) were irradiated at the TRIUMF Neutron Facility and the Proton Therapy Research Centre. In the proton beam, we compared the raw Bragg peak and spread-out Bragg peak response to the industry standard Markus chamber detector. Both scintillator sensors exhibited quenching at high LET in the Bragg peak, presenting a peak-to-entrance ratio of 2.59 for the EJ-260 and 2.63 for the SCSF-3HF fibre, compared to 3.70 for the Markus chamber. The SCSF-3HF sensor demonstrated 1.3 times the sensitivity to protons and 3 times the sensitivity to neutrons as compared to the EJ-260 sensor. Combined with our equations relating neutron and proton contributions to dose during proton irradiations, and the application of Birks' quenching correction, these fibres provide valid candidates for inexpensive and replicable proton-neutron discrimination detectors}, language = {en} } @article{Finkenberger2022, author = {Finkenberger, Isabel Maria}, title = {Strukturwandel als transformative Wende}, series = {disP: The Planning Review}, volume = {58}, journal = {disP: The Planning Review}, number = {3}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {0251-3625}, doi = {10.1080/02513625.2022.2158603}, pages = {86 -- 94}, year = {2022}, language = {de} } @article{OjovanSteinmetz2022, author = {Ojovan, Michael I. and Steinmetz, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {Approaches to Disposal of Nuclear Waste}, series = {Energies}, volume = {15}, journal = {Energies}, number = {20}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {1996-1073}, doi = {10.3390/en15207804}, pages = {Artikel 7804}, year = {2022}, abstract = {We present a concise mini overview on the approaches to the disposal of nuclear waste currently used or deployed. The disposal of nuclear waste is the end point of nuclear waste management (NWM) activities and is the emplacement of waste in an appropriate facility without the intention to retrieve it. The IAEA has developed an internationally accepted classification scheme based on the end points of NWM, which is used as guidance. Retention times needed for safe isolation of waste radionuclides are estimated based on the radiotoxicity of nuclear waste. Disposal facilities usually rely on a multi-barrier defence system to isolate the waste from the biosphere, which comprises the natural geological barrier and the engineered barrier system. Disposal facilities could be of a trench type, vaults, tunnels, shafts, boreholes, or mined repositories. A graded approach relates the depth of the disposal facilities' location with the level of hazard. Disposal practices demonstrate the reliability of nuclear waste disposal with minimal expected impacts on the environment and humans.}, language = {en} } @incollection{MoorkampPetersonUibel2022, author = {Moorkamp, Wilfried and Peterson, Leif Arne and Uibel, Thomas}, title = {Nachhaltige Holzbr{\"u}cken f{\"u}r Geh- und Radwege}, series = {Bauphysik Kalender 2022: Holzbau, 22.

The idea was to test the sensors in different typical scenarios that were defined with real-world use cases in mind, in order to find a sensor that meet the requirements of self-driving vehicles. For this, we defined static and dynamic benchmark scenarios. In the static scenarios, both LiDAR and the detection target do not move during the measurement. In dynamic scenarios, the LiDAR sensor was mounted on the vehicle which was driving toward the detection target. We tested all mentioned LiDAR sensors in both scenarios, show the results regarding the detection accuracy of the targets, and discuss their usefulness for deployment in self-driving cars.}, language = {en} } @article{Finkenberger2022, author = {Finkenberger, Isabel Maria}, title = {Transformatives Forschen, Lehren und Handeln im Rheinischen Braunkohlerevier}, series = {Forum Wohnen und Stadtentwicklung}, volume = {2022}, journal = {Forum Wohnen und Stadtentwicklung}, number = {2}, publisher = {vhw}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1439-7242}, pages = {69 -- 72}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Die Institution Hochschule hat das Potenzial, {\"u}ber transformatives Forschen und Lehren und den entsprechenden Wissenstransfer in den lokalen Kontext strategisch-verl{\"a}ssliche Partnerin der Großen Transformation zur Nachhaltigkeit zu werden und bei der Ausbildung von Pionierinnen und Pionieren des Wandels mitzuwirken.
