Given industrial applications, the costs for the operation and maintenance of a pump system typically far exceed its purchase price. For finding an optimal pump configuration which minimizes not only investment, but life-cycle costs, methods like Technical Operations Research which is based on Mixed-Integer Programming can be applied. However, during the planning phase, the designer is often faced with uncertain input data, e.g. future load demands can only be estimated. In this work, we deal with this uncertainty by developing a chance-constrained two-stage (CCTS) stochastic program. The design and operation of a booster station working under uncertain load demand are optimized to minimize total cost including purchase price, operation cost incurred by energy consumption and penalty cost resulting from water shortage. We find optimized system layouts using a sample average approximation (SAA) algorithm, and analyze the results for different risk levels of water shortage. By adjusting the risk level, the costs and performance range of the system can be balanced, and thus the
system’s resilience can be engineered
Das wahre Gewicht des Smartphones : eine informative Erfahrung zu den ökologischen Auswirkungen
(2022)
Das Smartphone gehört zu den innovativsten Geräten unserer Zeit und befindet sich in einem ständigen Wandel, der nach immer mehr Leistung, größeren Displays und besseren Kameras strebt. Mit neuen Modellen, die jährlich auf den Markt kommen und den Milliarden Smartphones, die verkauft werden, entsteht aber nicht nur ein großer Markt voller Angebote, sondern gleichzeitig große Probleme für unsere Umwelt und letztlich auch für uns. Die Smartphone-Industrie schadet massiv unserem Ökosystem.
Das Ziel der Arbeit ist die Aufklärung über die Auswirkungen der Smartphone-Industrie. Dafür wurden Visualisierung zu Daten und Prozessen gestaltet, die viele Aspekte des Lebenszyklus des Smartphones mit einbeziehen. Die Betrachter:innen sollen so informativ aufgeklärt werden, ihren eigenen Konsum zu dem Thema überdenken und ein Bewusstsein für ihren Elektronikverbrauch entwickeln.
IEC Technical Committee 81 is currently creating the new IEC 62305 series of standards on Lightning Protection. Working Group 9 is responsible for Part 2 of this series, which deals with the assessment and management of risk its CDV (Committee Draft for Voting) stage and has been circulated to National Committees for comment. The paper details the development of the Simplified IEC Risk Assessment Calculator software tool as described in Informative Annex J of IEC62305-2 Ed.1/CDV 2. This tool is intended as a simplified implementation of the more rigorous treatment of risk management found in the written document. It is designed to be relatively intuitive for users who wish to obtain an initial assessment of risk sensitivity, but should not be considered a substitute to a full understanding of the methods provided in the standard when dealing with more complicated structures or those where greater risks to personal or system operation are involved.
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.
The Kremer-Grest (KG) bead-spring model is a near standard in Molecular Dynamic simulations of generic polymer properties. It owes its popularity to its computational efficiency, rather than its ability to represent specific polymer species and conditions. Here we investigate how to adapt the model to match the universal properties of a wide range of chemical polymers species. For this purpose we vary a single parameter originally introduced by Faller and Müller-Plathe, the chain stiffness. Examples include polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, cis-polyisoprene, polydimethylsiloxane, polyethyleneoxide and styrene-butadiene rubber. We do this by matching the number of Kuhn segments per chain and the number of Kuhn segments per cubic Kuhn volume for the polymer species and for the Kremer-Grest model. We also derive mapping relations for converting KG model units back to physical units, in particular we obtain the entanglement time for the KG model as function of stiffness allowing for a time mapping. To test these relations, we generate large equilibrated well entangled polymer melts, and measure the entanglement moduli using a static primitive-path analysis of the entangled melt structure as well as by simulations of step-strain deformation of the model melts. The obtained moduli for our model polymer melts are in good agreement with the experimentally expected moduli.
Der Personalmangel in der Pflege ist vor allem durch die Pandemie in den Fokus der Öffentlichkeit gerückt. Diese Situation wird sich in den nächsten Jahren aufgrund der steigenden Pflegequote in Folge des demografischen Wandels weiter zuspitzen. Das Dokumentieren der durchgeführten Tätigkeiten nimmt dabei viel Zeit in Anspruch, die nicht den Bewohner:innen zugutekommt. Das Dokumentationssystem „Applause“ soll Pflege- und Betreuungskräfte in ihrer Arbeit unterstützen und durch die einfache Nutzerführung den Schulungsaufwand reduzieren. Durch die Integration von modernen medizinischen Sensoren kann innerhalb des Systems der aktuelle Gesundheitsstatus der Bewohner:innen eingesehen werden. Zusätzlich wird die interne sowie externe Kommunikation innerhalb des Dokumentationssystems abgebildet. Bei Letzterer wird mittels einer datenschutzkonformen Software die auf Fax basierende Kommunikation abgelöst.
Sen(se)sation : VR Produktvision mit multisensorischem Einfluss
auf die menschliche Wahrnehmung
(2022)
Das Sen(se)sation VR-Produktkonzept ermöglicht Nutzer*Innen die nahezu vollkommen realistische Darstellung virtuell generierter Welten. Das Konzept ist in genauer Betrachtung des aktuellen Technikstands und der Analyse von Zukunftstrends konzipiert worden und stellt eine Produktvision dar, die in spätestens 5 Jahren problemlos umsetzbar sein wird. Um nicht den Eindruck einer unfundierten Zukunftsvision zu erzeugen, wurde sich bei der Konstruktion der integrierten Features auf aktuell erhältliche Vergleichsprodukte bezogen. Das Sen(se)sation VR System zeigt neue Möglichkeiten die Gestaltungs- und Technikbereich derzeitiger VR Brillen und Controller. Durch die Fokussierung des Produkts auf die Manipulation und Stimulation der fünf Hauptsinne des Menschen wird ein so hoher Grad der Immersion erzeugt, dass die Wahrnehmung von Realität und Virtualität beinah verschwimmen könnte.
The metabolic activity of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells was observed using a light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS). The dependency toward different glucose concentrations (17–200 mM) follows a Michaelis–Menten kinetics trajectory with Kₘ = 32.8 mM, and the obtained Kₘ value in this experiment was compared with that found in literature. In addition, the pH shift induced by glucose metabolism of tumor cells transfected with the HPV-16 genome (C3 cells) was successfully observed. These results indicate the possibility to determine the tumor cells metabolism with a LAPS-based measurement device.
A new microfluidic assembly method for semiconductor-based biosensors using 3D-printing technologies was proposed for a rapid and cost-efficient design of new sensor systems. The microfluidic unit is designed and printed by a 3D-printer in just a few hours and assembled on a light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) chip using a photo resin. The cell growth curves obtained from culturing cells within microfluidics-based LAPS systems were compared with cell growth curves in cell culture flasks to examine biocompatibility of the 3D-printed chips. Furthermore, an optimal cell culturing within microfluidics-based LAPS chips was achieved by adjusting the fetal calf serum concentrations of the cell culture medium, an important factor for the cell proliferation.
The industrial revolution especially in the IR4.0 era have driven many states of the art technologies to be introduced.
The automotive industry as well as many other key industries have also been greatly influenced. The rapid development of automotive industries in Europe have created wide industry gap between European Union (EU) and developing countries such as in South East Asia (SEA). Indulging this situation, FH JOANNEUM, Austria together with European partners from FH Aachen, Germany and Politecnico di Torino, Italy are taking initiative to close down the gap utilizing the Erasmus+ United Capacity Building in Higher Education grant from EU. A consortium was founded to engage with automotive technology transfer using the European framework to Malaysian, Indonesian and Thailand Higher Education Institutions (HEI) as well as automotive industries in respective countries. This could be achieved by establishing Engineering Knowledge Transfer Unit (EKTU) in respective SEA institutions guided by the industry partners in their respective countries. This EKTU could offer updated, innovative and high-quality training courses to increase graduate’s employability in higher education institutions and strengthen relations between HEI and the wider economic and social environment by addressing University-industry cooperation which is the regional priority for Asia. It is expected that, the Capacity Building Initiative would improve the quality of higher education and enhancing its relevance for the labor market and society in the SEA partners. The outcome of this project would greatly benefit the partners in strong and complementary partnership targeting the automotive industry and enhanced larger scale international cooperation between the European and SEA partners. It would also prepare the SEA HEI in sustainable partnership with Automotive industry in the region as a mean of income generation in the future.

Enma ist eine Energiemanagement-Anwendung, die verschiedene Nutzer:innengruppen zusammenführt und damit den Prozess vereinfacht. Die aktuelle Energiekrise betrifft insbesondere Unternehmen, die in der Energieerzeugung tätig sind. Die Digitalisierung wird für Unternehmen in der Zukunft immer wichtiger und sie werden sich ihr nicht entziehen können. Daher benötigen insbesondere Unternehmen, die keinen dedizierten Energiemanager:innen beschäftigen, gezielte Unterstützung von Anwendungen. Auch Vertriebspartner:innen und Hersteller:innen von Produkten wie PV-Anlagen und Stromspeichern, die von solch einer Anwendung profitieren können, wollen ihren Kunden:innen Sicherheit und Unterstützung bieten. Dafür ist eine Anwendung erforderlich, die dies vereint. Das Ziel war es, das Backend von OpenEMS (Energiemanagementsystems) zu nutzen und zusätzlich einen menschenzentrierten und umweltfreundlichen Ansatz zu bieten. Um die Anwendung realistischer zu gestalten, wurde sie in Kooperation mit dem Unternehmen Voltfang entwickelt.
