Der physiologische, symbolische und ganzheitliche K{\"o}rper in der Architektur.}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.659}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20050727-6926}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, year = {2004}, abstract = {Der menschliche K{\"o}rper ist Bezugspunkt von repr{\"a}sentativen Str{\"o}mungen der zeitgen{\"o}ssischen Architektur, so lautet die Hauptthese der Dissertation. Bislang wurde das zeitgen{\"o}ssische architekturimmanente Konzept des K{\"o}rpers gr{\"o}ßtenteils selektiv und anhand wenig repr{\"a}sentativer Beispiele von der Kritik behandelt: Ein auf physiologische Gesichtspunkte reduzierter K{\"o}rper interagiert mit Bauten der klassischen Moderne oder neuen Medientechnologien. Eine umfassende Besch{\"a}ftigung mit theoretischen Konzepten des K{\"o}rpers und mit dem Fallbeispiel der zeitgen{\"o}ssischen Hotel- und Kasinoarchitektur in Las Vegas zeigt, dass der Begriff des K{\"o}rpers komplexer geworden ist, womit der Bezug zum K{\"o}rper weniger augenf{\"a}llig erscheint. Der Ansatz der Ph{\"a}nomenologie, Erkl{\"a}rungsmuster durch eine Hinwendung zum K{\"o}rper zu erhalten wird von verschiedenen Autoren in Frage gestellt. Wenn die Grenzen von K{\"o}rper bzw. Leib und Umwelt nicht mehr zu bestimmen sind, tauge der Begriff nicht als Letztbegr{\"u}ndung. Diese Kritik kann entkr{\"a}ftet werden, wenn auf das Modell der animate form der Philosophin Sheets-Johnstone zur{\"u}ckgegriffen wird. Dieses Konzept f{\"u}hrt {\"u}ber Merleau-Pontys K{\"o}rperbegriff hinaus, der Sheets-Johnstones Aussage nach abstrakt sei. Insbesondere eine Hinwendung zum taktil-kin{\"a}sthetischen K{\"o}rper liefert neue Perspektiven. Damit ist es sinnvoll, Architektur in ihrer Beziehung zum K{\"o}rper zu beurteilen, weil der K{\"o}rper definierbar und eingrenzbar ist. Anhand des Fallbeispiels der Hotel- und Kasinoarchitektur von Las Vegas kann aufzeigt werden, in welcher Weise sich Planer heute auf den K{\"o}rper beziehen. Architektur geht in einem Megamedium auf, umgesetzt mit unterschiedlichen Techniken der Umweltgestaltung. Sowohl die Quantit{\"a}t als auch die Qualit{\"a}t der eingesetzten Reize nimmt zu. Dabei werden vor allem Reize eingesetzt, die tendenziell unbewusst wahrgenommen werden. Neben der Abstimmung auf die Sinne und die physische Beschaffenheit wird die symbolische Pr{\"a}gung des K{\"o}rpers beachtet. W{\"u}nsche und Vorstellungen der Nutzer werden {\"u}ber Zielgruppenanalysen ermittelt und finden ihre Entsprechung in semiotischen Architekturelementen. Diese werden so gestaltet, dass der Nutzer den semiotischen Gehalt zugleich sinnlich erf{\"a}hrt. Dieses Konzept des K{\"o}rpers wird als ganzheitlicher K{\"o}rper bezeichnet. Aufschlussreich ist ein Vergleich mit Vorstellungen des K{\"o}rpers vorausgehender Phasen, so z.B. dem Modell, das sich aus Scott Brown, Venturi und Izenours Buch Learning from Las Vegas ableiten l{\"a}sst, und das sich ebenso aus Texten und Bauten von Zeitgenossen wie Lynch, Norberg-Schulz und Kahn herausarbeiten l{\"a}sst. {\"U}ber die Besch{\"a}ftigung der Architekturtheoretiker mit der Sinneswahrnehmung entsteht ein Bewusstsein f{\"u}r den Einfluss des Symbolischen, das eine subjektive, durch das soziale und kulturelle Umfeld gepr{\"a}gte Wahrnehmung hervorbringt. Der K{\"o}rper ist eingebettet in symbolische Systeme wie Konventionen und Traditionen, die sein Handeln bestimmen. Dahingegen beziehen sich Vertreter der klassischen Moderne haupts{\"a}chlich auf die physiologischen Eigenschaften des K{\"o}rpers, seine Abmessungen und Bewegungsabl{\"a}ufe, wie Texte, Bauten und Menschmodelle z.B. von Meyer, Neutra, Le Corbusier und Neufert zeigen. Es f{\"a}llt auf, dass in Texten {\"u}ber Architektur von Las Vegas h{\"a}ufig Begriffe vorkommen, die zugleich zentrale Termini der Ph{\"a}nomenologie sind, wie Atmosph{\"a}re und der englische Begriff experience. Es zeigt sich, dass sich die Bedeutungen der philosophischen Termini in der Architektur des Fallbeispiel widerspiegelt. Anders als die vorschnelle Etikettierung der Architekturstr{\"o}mung als „Erlebnisarchitektur" suggeriert, bezieht sich der Begriff experience auf eine Ausrichtung an der Erfahrung. Diese ist das Resultat der langfristigen Pr{\"a}gung einer konkreten Nutzergruppe durch den in der Umwelt agierenden und durch seine symbolische Pr{\"a}gung beeinflussten K{\"o}rper. Die Erfahrung impliziert das Erlebnis, als kurzfristige Interaktion von K{\"o}rper und Umwelt. Am Fallbeispiel kann außerdem gezeigt werden, dass Techniken zur Schaffung von Atmosph{\"a}ren eingesetzt werden. In Anlehnung an den Philosophen B{\"o}hme kennzeichnen sich Atmosph{\"a}ren durch eine besondere N{\"a}he von Architektur und K{\"o}rper. Die Tatsache, dass Architekten gezielt Atmosph{\"a}ren schaffen, die gemeinhin nicht der Str{\"o}mung der „Erlebnisarchitekur zugerechnet werden, weist darauf hin, dass sich das Leitbild des ganzheitlichen K{\"o}rpers in unterschiedlichen Kontexten findet. Im Gegensatz zu Thesen Eisenmans oder Jamesons, die eine Entfremdung von K{\"o}rper und Raum bzw. das Ende des anthropozentrischen Weltbilds feststellen, propagieren Planer wie Jerde die Herstellung von Architektur, die Nutzer und Umwelt in einer {\"u}bergeordneten Ganzheit vereint. Ganzheit kann aber trotz feinerer Abstimmung auf den K{\"o}rper nur grenzwertig erreicht werden, da Nutzer nicht vollst{\"a}ndig erfasst werden k{\"o}nnen, sich die Planungen auf bestimmte Zielgruppen beschr{\"a}nken und die Interessen von Planer und Nutzer verschieden sind.}, subject = {K{\"o}rper}, language = {de} } @phdthesis{Lehmkuhl2004, author = {Lehmkuhl, Hansj{\"o}rg}, title = {Zur praktischen Anwendung numerischer Analysemethoden f{\"u}r Stabilit{\"a}tsprobleme}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.676}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20051013-7102}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, year = {2004}, abstract = {In der t{\"a}glichen Ingenieurpraxis werden in zunehmenden Maße numerische Analysen im Rahmen der Finite-Elemente-Methode auch zur Untersuchung stabilit{\"a}tsgef{\"a}hrdeter Strukturen eingesetzt.

Its essence is in recognising user requirements and use cases in the context of the real construction process, identifying the actors and roles for each individual activity and associating these activities with information, communication and standardisation requirements on the basis of a formalised specification, named the Process Matrix. In the paper we outline the history of process matrix development, introduce the basic structure of the matrix and show how it can be further extended and refined. We present also a web-based software implementation of the developed approach, describe how it has been used in ICCI and outline further perspectives.}, subject = {Informationstechnik}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Lehmann2004, author = {Lehmann, Steffen}, title = {Untersuchungen zur Bewertung von Verbundbauteilen aus Brettstapelelementen im Fl{\"a}chenverbund mit mineralischen Deckschichten}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.239}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20041216-2479}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, year = {2004}, abstract = {Zur Verbindung des fl{\"a}chigen Bauteils Brettstapelelement mit mineralischer Deckschicht sind bisher kaum geeignete einfachste Fugenausbildungen untersucht.

Ausgehend von der musterorientierten Perspektive - das heißt Untersuchungsgegenstand sind chronologische Abfolgen von Ortsver{\"a}nderungen und T{\"a}tigkeiten in Form von Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmustern - besteht das Ziel einer m{\"o}glichst realit{\"a}tsnahen Abbildung und Erkl{\"a}rung von individuellen Unterschieden im Raum-Zeit-Verhalten. Neu bzw. kaum etabliert sind in diesem Kontext der eigens konzipierte Multimethodenansatz sowie die Optimal Matching Technik, die erweiterte Abbildungseigenschaften zur Distanzmessung zwischen Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmustern aufweist. Erkannt werden durch jene Methode gleiche T{\"a}tigkeiten bzw. Ortsver{\"a}nderungen, die zeitlich an unterschiedlichen Stellen der zu vergleichenden Muster angeordnet sind sowie identische Subsequenzen. Zielf{\"u}hrend in der Datenanalyse ist nachstehende Abfolge von Verfahren: Die Klassifikation von Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmustern zur Reduktionen deren immenser Komplexit{\"a}t gelingt durch Einsatz der Optimal Matching Technik. Diese quantifiziert (Un-){\"a}hnlichkeiten zwischen Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmustern („Abstandsmessung") unterschiedlicher Personen oder zu vergleichender Zeitabschnitte einer Person. Die dadurch berechnete Distanzmatrix bildet den Ausgangspunkt des clusteranalytischen Fusions-algorithmus, dessen Aufgabe die Zusammenfassung der Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmuster ist (explorative Stufe). Die Anwendung eines multinomialen Logit-Modells erm{\"o}glicht auf Individualebene die Vorhersage der Affinit{\"a}t zu Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmuster-Typen anhand von Merkmalswerten identifizierter Erkl{\"a}rungsgr{\"o}ßen der Personen, des Haushaltes usw. (induktive Stufe). Im Gegensatz zu einschl{\"a}gigen Forschungsarbeiten zeichnet sich die gew{\"a}hlte Untersuchungsstrategie durch die Objektivit{\"a}t des Vorgehens aus, da eine a-priori Bildung von Personen-kategorien nicht notwendig ist. Ebenso grenzt die Ber{\"u}cksichtigung der zuf{\"a}lligen und nicht-erkl{\"a}rbaren Verhaltensvariabilit{\"a}t durch das Wahrscheinlichkeitsprinzip des gew{\"a}hlten Logit-Modells das eigene Vorgehen von anderen Untersuchungen ab. Aufgrund der weitgehend ungekl{\"a}rten Anwendungsgrundlagen der Optimal Matching Technik befasst sich die vorliegende Arbeit zun{\"a}chst mit dessen inhaltlicher Ausrichtung am Untersuchungsgegenstand. Die Anpassung der festzulegenden Aufwandswerte, welche f{\"u}r die ben{\"o}tigten Aktionen angesetzt werden, um ein Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmuster in ein anderes zu transformieren, erfolgt mit Hilfe einer empirisch Absch{\"a}tzung, die weit {\"u}ber ein argumentatives Vorgehen hinausgeht. Der ermittelte Sequenzabstand inkludiert dabei die operationsspezifische Distanz bei {\"U}berg{\"a}ngen zwischen den konstituierenden Zust{\"a}nden der zu vergleichenden Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmuster („Zustands{\"a}hnlichkeit"). Abstandsmaß f{\"u}r die qualitativen Zust{\"a}nde ist dabei die ermittelte Priorit{\"a}t von wege- und t{\"a}tigkeitenbezogenen Handlungen. Die Relevanz einer Ausrichtung belegt auch die durchgef{\"u}hrte Sensitivit{\"a}tsanalyse: Das Ausmaß der Empfindlichkeit der Optimal Matching Technik ist insbesondere gegen{\"u}ber der Festlegung der Aufwandswerte betr{\"a}chtlich. Um die Analysepotenziale des Multimethodenansatzes zu demonstrieren, werden exemplarisch interpersonelle Unterschiede im w{\"o}chentlichen Aktivit{\"a}ten-(Verkehrs-)verhaltens (Datenbasis: deutsches Mobilit{\"a}tspanel) analysiert. Ergebnis der Klassifikation (explorative Analysestufe) ist eine auf den ersten Blick inhaltlich stichhaltige Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmuster-Typologie charakteristischer Wochenabl{\"a}ufe des Aktivit{\"a}ten-(Verkehrs-)verhaltens: Unterschiedliche Arten, zeitlicher Umfang und zeitliche Lage der Haupt-aktivit{\"a}ten, unterschiedliche Verkehrsverhaltensweisen sowie unterschiedliche clusterspezifische Tag zu Tag Rhythmen, Gleichf{\"o}rmigkeiten, Schwankungen usw. des Raum-Zeit-Verhaltens kennzeichnen die Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmuster-Typen. Die Abbildungs-eigenschaften der Optimal-Matching Technik zeichnen sich in den erstellten Clustern nur teilweise ab: W{\"a}hrend die Zustandselementkomposition - augenscheinlich betrachtet - passabel durch die Wege-Aktivit{\"a}tenmuster-Typologie abgebildet wird, bleibt ungewiss, ob und inwieweit dies f{\"u}r die Abfolge{\"a}hnlichkeit gilt.

Im Mittelpunkt dieser regionalwissenschaftlichen Forschungsarbeit stehen r{\"a}umliche Disparit{\"a}ten der Versorgungs- und Angebotssicherung sowie bisher kaum betrachtete r{\"a}umliche Strukturen und Interdependenzen der Pflegebed{\"u}rftigkeit und Pflegeleistungen. Hierzu wurden vom Autor mehrere regional differenzierte Datenerhebungen aller teilstation{\"a}ren und vollstation{\"a}ren pflegebed{\"u}rftigen Menschen und der Pflegeinfrastruktureinrichtungen im Freistaat Th{\"u}ringen durchgef{\"u}hrt.Durch die Integration explorativer Analysemethoden in die empirische Regionalforschung wird die Pflegelandschaft Th{\"u}ringens f{\"u}r den Zeitraum 1994 bis 2000 dokumentiert und anhand eines relationalen Indikatorensystems die Strukturen und r{\"a}umlichen Muster der Pflegebed{\"u}rftigkeit und -infrastruktur, soziodemographischen und raumstrukturellen Einflusskomponenten sowie pflegespezifische Interdependenzen exploriert und analysiert. Ein Ergebnis sind typologische Aussagen zum Alter, zur Pflegeart und -schwere oder Struktur der Pflegeleistungen in einer hochaufl{\"o}senden topologischen Differenzierung nach regionaler Herkunft pflegebed{\"u}rftiger Menschen. So hat die Einf{\"u}hrung der Pflegeversicherung die Situation der meisten pflegebed{\"u}rftigen Menschen in Th{\"u}ringen deutlich verbessert.

The paper proposes a conceptual framework for emergency management in the built environment, using Semantic Grid as an integrating platform for different technologies. The framework supports a distributed network of specialists in built environment, including structural engineers, building technologists, decision analysts etc. It brings together the necessary technology threads, including the Semantic Web (to provide a framework for shared definitions of terms, resources and relationships), Web Services (to provide dynamic discovery and integration) and Grid Computing (for enhanced computational power, high speed access, collaboration and security control) to support rapid formation of virtual teams for disaster management. The proposed framework also make an extensive use of modelling and simulation (both numerical and using visualisations), data mining (to find resources in legacy data sets) and visualisation. It also include a variety of hardware instruments with access to real time data. Furthermore the whole framework is centred on collaborative working by the virtual team.

Regenerative Energiequellen m{\"u}ssen genutzt werden, um den steigenden Energiebedarf zu sichern. Eine interessante M{\"o}glichkeit zur Nutzung der Solarenergie stellt das Aufwindkraftwerk dar.

Die Erw{\"a}rmung beruht vorrangig auf einer chemischen Reaktion, bei der das dem Boden zugemischte Calciumoxid mit Bodenwasser unter Freisetzung von W{\"a}rmeenergie zu Calciumhydroxid reagiert. Hierzu wurden zun{\"a}chst die thermischen Eigenschaften feink{\"o}rniger B{\"o}den und ihre Beeinflussung durch das Herstellen des Bindemittel-Boden-Gemisches in situ untersucht. Weiterhin wurden Untersuchungen zum zeitlichen Verlauf der chemischen Reaktion und zur Gr{\"o}ße der dabei freigesetzten Reaktionsw{\"a}rme vorgenommen. Mit dem Vorhaben, die mit der S{\"a}ulenherstellung einhergehenden Temperaturfeld{\"a}nderungen zu erfassen, wurden danach die thermischen Anfangs- und Randbedingungen des Bodens und der Bodenoberfl{\"a}che untersucht und festgelegt. Anschließend wurden die zeitabh{\"a}ngigen Temperaturfeld{\"a}nderungen auf der Grundlage der W{\"a}rme{\"u}bertragung durch W{\"a}rmeleitung mit Hilfe des Finite-Elemente-Methode Programms Ansys® 6.1 numerisch simuliert. Das Finite-Elemente-Modell wurde durch die Nachrechnung von Feldversuchen verifiziert. Im Rahmen der Finite-Elemente-Berechnungen wurde die infolge der Hydratation des Branntkalkes stattfindende Erw{\"a}rmung des Bindemittel-Boden-Gemisches und des angrenzenden Bodens simuliert und hinsichtlich relevanter Einflussgr{\"o}ßen {\"u}berpr{\"u}ft. Untersucht wurde der Einfluss herstellungsbedingter Faktoren wie Bindemittelkonzentration, S{\"a}ulendurchmesser und S{\"a}ulenanordnung sowie der Einfluss nat{\"u}rlicher Faktoren wie Trockendichte und S{\"a}ttigungsgrad des Bodens. Die mit Hilfe der Finite-Elemente-Methode ermittelten zeitabh{\"a}ngigen, im Boden auftretenden Temperaturgef{\"a}lle bilden die Grundlage f{\"u}r die Untersuchung der thermisch bedingten Wassertransportvorg{\"a}nge in der Stabilisierungss{\"a}ule und deren Umfeld. Zu diesem Zweck wurde die durch die Temperaturfeldbeeinflussung ge{\"a}nderte energetische Situation des Bodenwassers analysiert. Auch nicht-thermische, infolge der S{\"a}ulenherstellung auftretende Effekte wie die durch den >Stopfeffekt< bedingte lokale S{\"a}ttigungs{\"a}nderung und die Beeinflussung des osmotischen Potentials einschließlich der daraus resultierenden Wasserbewegungen wurden ber{\"u}cksichtigt. Alle thermisch verursachten Wasser- und Dampffl{\"u}sse bewirken ein Abstr{\"o}men von Porenwasser aus dem stabilisierten Erdk{\"o}rper in den umliegenden Boden. Baupraktisch bleiben die durch thermische Einfl{\"u}sse hervorgerufenen Wassertransportvorg{\"a}nge aufgrund ihres geringen Betrages jedoch unbedeutend. In abschließenden Temperaturfeldberechnungen wurden die thermischen Bodenkennwerte an die sich zeitlich ver{\"a}ndernde Wassers{\"a}ttigung des Bodens angepasst. Anhand der ermittelten Temperaturverl{\"a}ufe wurde aufgezeigt, dass der Einfluss der S{\"a}ttigungs{\"a}nderung auf die Berechnungsergebnisse sehr gering ist, und damit die Voraussetzung f{\"u}r die vorangegangene entkoppelte Betrachtung des W{\"a}rme- und Massestromes erf{\"u}llt ist. Aufgrund dieser Ergebnisse muss der mehrfach in der Literatur zitierte, auch mit der tiefgr{\"u}ndigen Bodenstabilisierung in Zusammenhang gebrachte, Einfluss der Erw{\"a}rmung auf die Verdunstung des Bodenwassers kritisch betrachtet und in Frage gestellt werden. Voraussetzung hierf{\"u}r ist der Transport von Wasser an die Bodenoberfl{\"a}che. Nennenswerte, auf Temperatureinfl{\"u}ssen beruhende Wasserbewegungen sind, wie die Berechnungsergebnisse gezeigt haben, nicht zu erwarten. Weitere Untersuchungen zur Festigkeitsentwicklung von Branntkalk-Boden-S{\"a}ulen und deren Vorhersage sollten sich daher auf die mechanischen Effekte und auf die mineralogisch-chemischen Prozesse, wie die puzzolanischen Reaktionen, und die M{\"o}glichkeiten ihrer Prognose konzentrieren. Die Berechnungen haben gezeigt, dass die Temperaturentwicklung in der Stabilisierungss{\"a}ule im Wesentlichen durch die Bindemittelkonzentration, und ihr Ausk{\"u}hlungsverhalten vorrangig durch ihre geometrischen Abmessungen bestimmt wird. Diese Sachverhalte sind von den Bodenparametern, der f{\"u}r die Stabilisierung in Frage kommenden B{\"o}den, weitestgehend unabh{\"a}ngig.

Moreover, in many project life-cycle applications, detailed models of objects are not needed. Results of earlier research conducted by the authors demonstrated novel, highly economical methods that reduce data acquisition time and the need for computationally intensive processing.

In this paper, we introduce a system that supports project management tasks on construction sites effectively and efficiently by making integrated product and process models accessible.

Based on this understanding of the information and data collection needs, we developed the navigational model framework and the application Site Data Collection System (SiDaCoS), which implements that framework.

This decision process consists of five basic components: (1) decision stages (locations), (2) system states (ground classes and tunneling methods), (3) alternatives (tunneling methods), (4) ground class transition probabilities, and (5) tunneling cost structure. The paper also presents concepts related to risk preference that are necessary to model the contractor's risk attitude, including the lottery concept, utility theory, and the delta property. The optimality equation is formulated, the model components are defined, and the model is solved by stochastic dynamic programming.

The authors have already proposed intelligent fuzzy optimal active control (IFOAC) systems. IFOAC systems imitate intelligent activities of human brains such as prediction, adaptation, decision-kaking and so on. In IFOAC systems, objective and subjective judgements on the active control can be taken into account. However, IFOAC systems are considered to be suitable for far-field erathquake and control effect becomes small in case of near-field earthqaukes which include a few velosity pules with large amplitudes. To improve control effect in case of near-souece earthquakes, the authors have also proposed hybrid control (HC) systems, in which IFOAC systems and fuzzy control system are combined. In HC systems, the fuzzy control systems are introduced as a reflective fuzzy active control (RFAC) system and imitates spinal reflection of human. In HC systems, active control forces are activated to buildings in accordance with switching rules on active control forces. In this paper, optimizations on fuzzy control rules in RFAC system and switching rules of active control forces in HC system are performed by Parameter-Free Genetic Algorithms (PfGAs). Here, the optimization is performed by using different earthquake inputs.

Planning processes in civil engineering are characterized by some peculiarities so that the sequence of planning tasks needs to be determined for each planning project. Neither the use of optimized partial processes nor the use of lower detailed and optimized processes guarantee an optimal overall planning process. The modeling technique considers these peculiarities. In a first step, it is focused on the logic of the planning process. Algorithms based on the graph theory determine that logic. This approach ensures consistency and logical correctness of the description of a planning process at the early beginning in its preparation phase. Sets of data - the products of engineers like technical drawings, technical models, reports, or specifications - form the core of the presented modeling technique. The production of these sets of data requires time and money. This is expressed by a specific weighting of each set of data in the presented modeling technique. The introduction of these weights allows an efficient progress measurement and controlling of a planning project. For this purpose, a link between the modeling technique used in the preparation phase and the execution phase is necessary so that target and actual values are available for controlling purposes.

Seither werden immer wieder Bausch{\"a}den beschrieben, deren Ursache in der Reaktion von Zuschl{\"a}gen, die „reaktive" Kiesels{\"a}ure enthalten, mit der Porenl{\"o}sung des Betons zu sehen ist. Diese Reaktion wird als Alkali-Kiesels{\"a}ure Reaktion (AKR) bezeichnet. Seit der ersten Ver{\"o}ffentlichung von Stanton {\"u}ber die „alkali-aggregate reaction" an opalhaltigen Zuschl{\"a}gen sind hunderte von Forschungsarbeiten zu diesem Thema durchgef{\"u}hrt und deren Ergebnisse ver{\"o}ffentlicht worden. Trotz eingehender Forschung seit mehr als 8o Jahren ist weder der Mechanismus der AKR vollst{\"a}ndig gekl{\"a}rt noch eine eindeutige Voraussage {\"u}ber die Gef{\"a}hrdung von Bauwerken oder Bauteilen mit potentiell AKR-empfindlichen Zuschl{\"a}gen m{\"o}glich. Das liegt vor allen Dingen daran, das es sich bei der AKR um eine Reaktion handelt, die aus einer komplexen Abfolge chemischer und physikalischer Prozesse besteht, die in ihrer Gesamtheit zu einer Sch{\"a}digung von Beton bzw. Betonbauteilen und Bauwerken f{\"u}hren k{\"o}nnen. Eine geschlossene Beschreibung und Behandlung dieser Reaktion ist nicht m{\"o}glich, solange keine befriedigende Kenntnis {\"u}ber den Ablauf der einzelnen Schritte vorliegt. Dazu bedarf es grunds{\"a}tzlicher Untersuchungen der einzelnen chemischen und physikalischen Reaktionsschritte sowie einer m{\"o}glichst quantitativen Bewertung der verschiedenen Einflussfaktoren. Grunds{\"a}tzlich gibt es weltweit eine ganze Reihe von Richtlinien und Normen , die dazu verhelfen sollen, Sch{\"a}digungen an Bauwerken durch AKR zu verhindern. In Deutschland ist das momentan g{\"u}ltige Regelwerk die sogenannte Alkali-Richtlinie des deutschen Ausschusses f{\"u}r Stahlbeton (DAfStb). Sie dient zur Beurteilung von Zuschlag nach DIN 4226 [6, 7, 8] mit alkaliempfindlichen Bestandteilen. Dabei bezieht sich der Teil 2 der Richtlinie auf Zuschl{\"a}ge mit Opalsandstein, Kieselkreide und Flint aus bestimmten Gewinnungsgebieten. Hier wird eine reine Zuschlagpr{\"u}fung gefordert. Teil 3 der Richtlinie bezieht sich auf pr{\"a}kambrische Grauwacken und andere alkaliempfindliche Gesteine. Gefordert werden hier Pr{\"u}fungen der Zuschl{\"a}ge selbst sowie Pr{\"u}fung an Betonbalken und 30er W{\"u}rfeln in der Nebelkammer. F{\"u}r die meisten in der Richtlinie genannten Zuschl{\"a}ge bilden die Pr{\"u}fungen und Vorschriften eine ausreichende Sicherheit, um eine AKR zu vermeiden. Dennoch treten immer wieder Sch{\"a}den mit Zuschl{\"a}gen auf, die nach der Alkali-Richtlinie als unempfindlich eingestuft werden m{\"u}ssten. Dabei handelt es sich in der Regel um Schadensf{\"a}lle, die erst nach mehreren Jahren mit sp{\"a}t reagierenden AKR-empfindlichen Zuschl{\"a}gen auftreten. Zu diesen Zuschl{\"a}gen, die gegebenenfalls speziell im Nebelkammertest innerhalb von neun Monaten keine signifikante Dehnung (<0,6mm/m) aufweisen, geh{\"o}ren Stressquarze, Kieselkalk, Granit, Porphyr, Kieselschiefer und Grauwacke.

Modern indentation machines have the capability to continuously monitor load and displacement to high precision and accuracy. In recent years, research interests have focussed on methods to extract material properties from indentation load-displacement curves. Analytical methods to interpret the indentation load-displacement curves are difficult to formulate due to material and geometric nonlinearities as well as complex contact interactions. In the present study, an artificial neural network model was constructed for interpretation of indentation load-displacement curves. Large strain-large deformation finite element analyses were first carried out to simulate indentation experiments. The data from finite element analyses were then used to train the artificial neural network model. The artificial neural network model was able to accurately determine the material properties when presented with load-displacement curves which were not used in the training process.

This helps with reasoning and communicates ideas to other members of the team. Sketches are gradually worked up into more formal drawings which are then passed to the other stages of the design process. There are however some problems with basing early ideas on sketching. For example, due to their ad-hoc nature, sketches tend only to be diagrammatic representations and so designers cannot be sure that their ideas are feasible and what is being proposed meets the constraints described in the client brief. This can result in designers wasting time working up ideas which prove to be unsuitable. Also the process of constraint checking is complex and time consuming and so designers tend limit their search of possible options and instead choose satisfying rather than good solutions. This paper describes the INTEGRA project which examines the role of sketching in early conceptual design and how this can be linked to other aspects of the process and particularly automated constraint checking using an IT based approach.
