In this study, a single piezoelectric quartz crystal nanobalance modified with polystyrene was employed to detect benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX compounds). The frequency shift of the QCN sensor was found to be linear against the BTEX compound concentrations in the range about 1-45 mg l-1. The correlation coefficients for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene were 0.991, 0.9977, 0.9946 and 0.9971, respectively. The principal component analysis was also utilized to process the frequency response data of the single piezoelectric crystal at different times, considering to the different adsorption-desorption dynamics of BTEX compounds. Using principal component analysis, it was found that over 90% of the data variance could still be explained by use of two principal components (PC1 and PC2). Subsequently, the successful identification of benzene and toluene was possible through the principal component analysis of the transient responses of the polystyrene modified QCN sensor. The results showed that the polystyrene-modified QCN had favorable identification and quantification performances for the BTEX compounds.

Proceedings of an Advisory Group Meeting held in Jülich, 21-24 November 1994. - Vienna , 1996. - Seite: 43 - 55 IAEA-TECDOC-920 Abstract: It is shown that the difficulty for probabilistic fracture mechanics (PFM) is the general problem of the high reliability of a small population. There is no way around the problem as yet. Therefore what PFM can contribute to the reliability of steel pressure boundaries is demon­strated with the example of a typical reactor pressure vessel and critically discussed. Although no method is distinguishable that could give exact failure probabilities, PFM has several addi­tional chances. Upper limits for failure probability may be obtained together with trends for design and operating conditions. Further, PFM can identify the most sensitive parameters, improved control of which would increase reliability. Thus PFM should play a vital role in the analysis of steel pressure boundaries despite all shortcomings.

These damages (total number approx. 74000 cases), registered by five German insurance companies in 2005 and 2006, were adviced by customers as caused by lightning overvoltages. With the use of stochastical methods it is possible, to reasses the collected data and to distinguish between cases, which are with high probability caused by lightning overvoltages, and those, which are not. If there was an indication for a direct strike, this case was excluded, so the focus was only on indirect lightning flashes, i.e. only flashes to ground near the structure and flashes to or nearby an incoming service line were investigated. The data from the field contain the location of damaged apparatus (residence of the policy holder) and the distances of the nearest cloud-to-ground stroke to the location of the damage registered by the German lightning location network BLIDS at the date of damage. The statistical data along with some complementary numerical simulations allow to verify the correspondence of the Standards rules used for IEC 62305-2 with the field data and to define some correction needs. The results could lead to a better understanding whether a damage reported to an insurance company is really caused by indirect lightning, or not.

Basing on the spectrophotometric measurements of phenylalanine, the concentrations of reagents of the enzymatic reaction (10 mM L-Phe, 0,4 mM NAD+, 2U L-PheDH) were determined. Then, the absorption spectrum of the reaction product, NADH, was monitored (maximum peak at 340 nm). The results obtained by the spectrophotometric method were compared with the results obtained by the colourimetry, using pH indicators. The above-mentioned two methods will be used as references for potentiometric measurements of phenylalanine concentration.

These tools consist of three parts: (a) for elaborating specific conceptual knowledge (knowledge engineer), (b) for working out conceptual design results (architect), and (c) automatic consistency analyses which guarantee that design results are consistent with the underlying specific conceptual knowledge. For the realization of such tools we use a machinery based on graph transformations. In a traditional PROGRES tool specification the conceptual knowledge for a class of buildings is hard-wired within the specification. This is not appropriate for the experimentation platform approach we present in this paper, as objects and relations for conceptual knowledge are due to many changes, implied by evaluation of their use and corresponding improvements. Therefore, we introduce a parametric specification method with the following characteristics: (1) The underlying specific knowledge for a class of buildings is not fixed. Instead, it is built up as a data base by using the knowledge tools. (2) The specification for the architect tools also does not incorporate specific conceptual knowledge. (3) An incremental checker guarantees whether a design result is consistent with the current state of the underlying conceptual knowledge (data base).

Johann Andorfer , Tandler.com GmbH, Buch a. Erlbach. Abstract zum 1. Aachener Softwaretag in der Wasserwirtschaft <1,2007, Aachen>. 2 S. (S. 136-137) Eine nachhaltige Sicherung der Funktionalität und der ökologischen Verträglichkeit eines mittleren bis großen Kanalnetzes erfordert eine umfassende und detaillierte Modellierung in Raum und Zeit. Um den in den Richtlinien geforderten statistischen Anforderungen gerecht zu werden und die jährlichen Häufigkeiten, Mengen und Zeiträume der Belastungen erwartungstreu abschätzen zu können, ist es zielführend und notwendig, lange Zeiträume und die Gesamtheit der Einzugsgebiete möglichst detailliert zu betrachten. Die hydraulische Funktionalität und Sicherheit soll meistens mit Hilfe zeitsymmetrischer (hydrodynamischer) Verfahren nur durch Betrachtung von Modellregen, allenfalls Regenserien, sichergestellt werden. Für die Abschätzung der jährlich zu erwartenden Emissionen in unsere natürlichen Gewässer mit ihren Mengen, Frequenzen und Dauern werden normalerweise Langzeitsimulationen natürlicher Regenreihen über möglichst große Zeiträume mit zeitasymmetrischen (hydrologischen) Verfahren durchgeführt. Die betrachteten Kanalnetze werden zumeist vereinfacht (Grobnetze), um die Rechenzeiten erträglicher zu gestalten. Wünschenswert wäre jedoch eine allen Anforderungen gerecht werdende wirklichkeitsnahe Modellierung des gesamten Kanalnetzes in all seinen Details, Vermaschungen und Wechselwirkungen (Feinnetz) und dessen zeitsymmetrische und damit verlässliche Simulation mit langjährigen Regenreihen. Bereits vor 15 Jahren wurde im Hause Tandler begonnen, die Berechnungssoftware durch Parallelisierung auf symmetrische Multiprozessortechnologien auszurichten. In neuerer Zeit hält diese Technik durch die Mehrkernprozessoren in normalen Notebooks und PCs Einzug in die Ingenieurbüros und Abwasserbetriebe und sorgt schon für wesentliche Einsparungen an Rechenzeit. Doch erst durch die Kombination der Parallelisierung mit dem Prinzip des verteilten Rechnens (d.h. die Einbeziehung mehrerer PCs eines Netzwerkes in die Berechnung) erhält man die Chance ausreichend Rechenkapazität zur Verfügung zu stellen, um nicht nur eine einzelne Langzeitsimulation eines Feinnetzes durchzuführen, sondern sogar mehrere Sanierungsalternativen zu überprüfen. Die zukunftsweisenden Arbeiten von Dipl. Math. R. Tandler auf diesem Gebiet sind Thema dieses Vortrags.

Bis vor kurzem basierte eine erschwingliche Hardware meist auf Mikrocontrollern mit den entsprechenden Leistungseinschränkungen z.B. im Bereich der Bildverarbeitung. Die Wahrnehmung einer 3D-Umgebung und somit die Möglichkeit zur autonomen Navigation wurde mit relativ kostenintensiver Hardware, z.B. Stereo-Vision-Systemen und Laserscannern gelöst. Die zur Auswertung der Sensorik notwendige Rechenleistung stand - entweder aufgrund des Stromverbrauchs oder der Performance meist für mobile Plattformen (lokal) - nicht zur Verfügung. Durch Einsatz von leistungsfähigen Prozessoren aus dem Bereich der Mobilgeräte (Smartphones, Tablets) und neuartigen Sensoren des Consumer-Bereichs, wie der Kinect, können mobile Roboter kostengünstig für den Einsatz in der Lehre aufgebaut werden.
