DEMs can be acquired using topographic maps or remote-sensing technologies, such as photogrammetry or lidar. Depending on the acquisition technique, different spatial resolutions and qualities are achieved. However, there is a lack of studies that investigate the sensitivity of snow avalanche simulation algorithms to the quality and resolution of DEMs. Here, we perform calculations using the numerical avalance dynamics model RAMMS, varying the quality and spatial resolution of the underlying DEMs, while holding the simulation parameters constant. We study both channelized and open-terrain avalanche tracks with variable roughness. To quantify the variance of these simulations, we use well-documented large-scale avalanche events from Davos, Switzerland (winter 2007/08), and from our large-scale avalanche test site, Valĺee de la Sionne (winter 2005/06). We find that the DEM resolution and quality is critical for modeled flow paths, run-out distances, deposits, velocities and impact pressures. Although a spatial resolution of ~25 m is sufficient for large-scale avalanche modeling, the DEM datasets must be checked carefully for anomalies and artifacts before using them for dynamics calculations.

T1 - Renal imaging at 7 Tesla: preliminary results JF - European Radiology N2 - Objective To investigate the feasibility of 7T MR imaging of the kidneys utilising a custom-built 8-channel transmit/receive radiofrequency body coil. Methods In vivo unenhanced MR was performed in 8 healthy volunteers on a 7T whole-body MR system. After B0 shimming the following sequences were obtained: 1) 2D and 3D spoiled gradient-echo sequences (FLASH, VIBE), 2) T1-weighted 2D in and opposed phase 3) True-FISP imaging and 4) a T2-weighted turbo spin echo (TSE) sequence. Visual evaluation of the overall image quality was performed by two radiologists. Results Renal MRI at 7T was feasible in all eight subjects. Best image quality was found using T1-weighted gradient echo MRI, providing high anatomical details and excellent conspicuity of the non-enhanced vasculature. With successful shimming, B1 signal voids could be effectively reduced and/or shifted out of the region of interest in most sequence types. However, T2-weighted TSE imaging remained challenging and strongly impaired because of signal heterogeneities in three volunteers. Conclusion The results demonstrate the feasibility and diagnostic potential of dedicated 7T renal imaging. Further optimisation of imaging sequences and dedicated RF coil concepts are expected to improve the acquisition quality and ultimately provide high clinical diagnostic value.

Ein Ort - tausende von Ideen, Geschichten und Träumen. die Bibliothek des Fachbereichs Design der FH Aachen. Eine scheinbar starre Gestalt und doch in ständigem Wandel. Menschen kommen und gehen; Dinge sind in Bewegung. Ein stiller Fluss von Veränderung, wie in einer eigenständigen Welt. Was macht diesen Ort aus? Was können Zahlen über ihn verraten? Und was befindet sich unter seiner strukturierten Oberfläche? Mit besonderem Blick auf das oft Unbemerkte, ist meine Arbeit eine Hommage an den „Raum 02103“ - an alles was ich dort bereits entdecken durfte und was noch zu entdecken ist. N2 - Room 02103. One place - thousands of ideas, stories and dreams. Source of knowledge and inspiration. My thesis - a book about the design department's library of the FH Aachen. An obviously rigid form, yet constantly changing. People come and go, things are in a movement. A peaceful river of change as in an independent world. What makes this place different? What can any abstract data tell about it? And what is under its structured surface? Focusing on the often unnoticed things, my work is a tribute to the space 02103 - in all I could discover there already and what remains to be revealed.
