Battlers are a precarious working class of about 100 million people, who have used their recently increased purchase power to informally solve their private housing demands, planning, building and renovating their homes themselves, with limited technical knowledge and almost no access to formal technicians as for example architects. The result is a mode of housing production, which spreads over the territory in micro-local self-initiatives and informal social practices of construction and management. With the support of a controversial manpower, this practice presents all sorts of technical complications, but at the same time expedient ways of affordability and creative spatial solutions for ordinary constructive problems. Such initiatives have consolidated Brazilian informal settlements and peripheral subdivisions, attending a demand poorly responded by the government. This research recognises the benefits of the self-production, but questions the conditions under which it happens and asks if it really collaborates for a true social rise of those who are engaged in it. With an empirical and qualitative approach and taking dwelling construction processes leaded by battlers as main information sources, the academic work responds if and how the socioeconomic rise of the Brazilian battlers has exactly affected the self-production of dwellings. For that, battlers' self-production of dwellings is analysed and discussed in five main aspects: 1) acquisition of land and real state, 2) building overtime, 3) space and creative power, 4) technical complications and building materials and 5) manpower and know-how.}, subject = {Sozialwohnung}, language = {en} } @article{OuaerHosseiniAmaretal., author = {Ouaer, Hocine and Hosseini, Amir Hossein and Amar, Menad Nait and Ben Seghier, Mohamed El Amine and Ghriga, Mohammed Abdelfetah and Nabipour, Narjes and Andersen, P{\aa}l {\O}steb{\o} and Mosavi, Amir and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin}, title = {Rigorous Connectionist Models to Predict Carbon Dioxide Solubility in Various Ionic Liquids}, series = {Applied Sciences}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Applied Sciences}, number = {Volume 10, Issue 1, 304}, publisher = {MDPI}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.3390/app10010304}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200107-40558}, pages = {18}, abstract = {Estimating the solubility of carbon dioxide in ionic liquids, using reliable models, is of paramount importance from both environmental and economic points of view.

To develop the above techniques, 744 experimental data points derived from the literature including 13 ILs were used (80\% of the points for training and 20\% for validation). Two backpropagation-based methods, namely Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) and Bayesian Regularization (BR), were applied to optimize the MLP algorithm. Various statistical and graphical assessments were applied to check the credibility of the developed techniques. The results were then compared with those calculated using Peng-Robinson (PR) or Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) equations of state (EoS). The highest coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.9965) and the lowest root mean square error (RMSE = 0.0116) were recorded for the MLP-LMA model on the full dataset (with a negligible difference to the MLP-BR model). The comparison of results from this model with the vastly applied thermodynamic equation of state models revealed slightly better performance, but the EoS approaches also performed well with R2 from 0.984 up to 0.996.

The term acoustic monu-memorials was coined in this research to encircle these structures and places. In order to achieve the goal of this research, it was necessary to compile a number of samples, primarily after the digital recording era of captured sound around 1971 to the present. The compilation was relevant because such a compendium was not found in the literature, and to the author's knowledge, a comprehensive investigation of the strategies used in planning acoustic monu-memorials in the urban spaces does not exist. The method used to create such compendium was to send a question to people with different background identities, such as visual and sound artists, musicians, art curators, and heritage scholars among others. This question produced a selection of 51 examples of acoustic monu-memorials located in public spaces. Subsequently, the examples were classified into four major categories according to their form and nature. Additionally, two examples from the main categories were chosen as case studies: The Sinti and Roma Memorial in Berlin, Germany and the Niche monument in Cali, Colombia. These study cases were presented, described, and analysed in detail as they represent the type of what could be defined as an acoustic monu-memorial in general. Lynch's (1960) five elements that help individuals build the image of the city were transferred and used as a tool to help to build this image into acoustic terms. A thorough analysis of the acquired data yielded found the strategies used by the designers to shape, modify, transform, and structure public space. These strategies are entitled Sound Spaces.

This paper investigates the optimum placement and properties of the Tuned Mass Dampers (TMDs) in tall buildings, which are employed to control the vibrations during earthquakes. An algorithm was developed to spend a limited mass either in a single TMD or in multiple TMDs and distribute them optimally over the height of the building. The Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA - II) method was improved by adding multi-variant genetic operators and utilized to simultaneously study the optimum design parameters of the TMDs and the optimum placement. The results showed that under earthquake excitations with noticeable amplitude in higher modes, distributing TMDs over the height of the building is more effective in mitigating the vibrations compared to the use of a single TMD system. From the optimization, it was observed that the locations of the TMDs were related to the stories corresponding to the maximum modal displacements in the lower modes and the stories corresponding to the maximum modal displacements in the modes which were highly activated by the earthquake excitations. It was also noted that the frequency content of the earthquake has significant influence on the optimum location of the TMDs.}, subject = {Schwingungsd{\"a}mpfer}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Schemmann, author = {Schemmann, Christoph}, title = {Optimierung von radialen Verdichterlaufr{\"a}dern unter Ber{\"u}cksichtigung empirischer und analytischer Vorinformationen mittels eines mehrstufigen Sampling Verfahrens}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.3974}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20190910-39748}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {233}, abstract = {Turbomachinery plays an important role in many cases of energy generation or conversion. Therefore, turbomachinery is a promising approaching point for optimization in order to increase the efficiency of energy use. In recent years, the use of automated optimization strategies in combination with numerical simulation has become increasingly popular in many fields of engineering. The complex interactions between fluid and solid mechanics encountered in turbomachines on the one hand and the high computational expense needed to calculate the performance on the other hand, have, however, prevented a widespread use of these techniques in this field of engineering. The objective of this work was the development of a strategy for efficient metamodel based optimization of centrifugal compressor impellers. In this context, the main focus is the reduction of the required numerical expense. The central idea followed in this research was the incorporation of preliminary information acquired from low-fidelity computation methods and empirical correlations into the sampling process to identify promising regions of the parameter space. This information was then used to concentrate the numerically expensive high-fidelity computations of the fluid dynamic and structure mechanic performance of the impeller in these regions while still maintaining a good coverage of the whole parameter space. The development of the optimization strategy can be divided into three main tasks. Firstly, the available preliminary information had to be researched and rated. This research identified loss models based on one dimensional flow physics and empirical correlations as the best suited method to predict the aerodynamic performance. The loss models were calibrated using available performance data to obtain a high prediction quality. As no sufficiently exact models for the prediction of the mechanical loading of the impellercould be identified, a metamodel based on finite element computations was chosen for this estimation. The second task was the development of a sampling method which concentrates samples in regions of the parameter space where high quality designs are predicted by the preliminary information while maintaining a good overall coverage. As available methods like rejection sampling or Markov-chain Monte-Carlo methods did not meet the requirements in terms of sample distribution and input correlation, a new multi-fidelity sampling method called "Filtered Sampling"has been developed. The last task was the development of an automated computational workflow. This workflow encompasses geometry parametrization, geometry generation, grid generation and computation of the aerodynamic performance and the structure mechanic loading. Special emphasis was put into the development of a geometry parametrization strategy based on fluid mechanic considerations to prevent the generation of physically inexpedient designs. Finally, the optimization strategy, which utilizes the previously developed tools, was successfully employed to carry out three optimization tasks. The efficiency of the method was proven by the first and second testcase where an existing compressor design was optimized by the presented method. The results were comparable to optimizations which did not take preliminary information into account, while the required computational expense cloud be halved. In the third testcase, the method was applied to generate a new impeller design. In contrast to the previous examples, this optimization featuredlargervariationsoftheimpellerdesigns. Therefore, theapplicability of the method to parameter spaces with significantly varying designs could be proven, too.}, subject = {Simulation}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchirmerKleinerOsburg, author = {Schirmer, Ulrike and Kleiner, Florian and Osburg, Andrea}, title = {Objektive Oberfl{\"a}chenbewertung von (P)SCC-Sichtbeton mittels automatisierter Analyse von Bilddaten}, series = {Tagung Bauchemie der GDCH-Fachgruppe Bauchemie, 30.

Therefore, the demand for railway transportation is increasing around the world. Constructing railway tracks and related engineering structures in areas with loose or soft cohesive subgrade usually leads to problems, such as excessive settlement, deformation and instability. Several remedies have been proposed to avoid or reduce such problems, including the replacement of soft soil and the construction of piles or stone columns. This thesis aims to expand the geotechnical knowledge of how to improve subgrade ballasted railway tracks, using stone columns and numerical modeling for the railway infrastructure. Three aspects are considered: i) railway track dynamics modeling and validation by field measurements, ii) modeling and parametric studies on stone columns, and iii) studies on the linear and non-linear behavior of stone columns under the dynamic load of trains. The first step of this research was to develop a reliable numerical model of a railway track. The finite element method in a time domain was used for either a 2D plane strain or 3D analysis. Individual methods for modeling a train load in 2D and 3D were implemented and are discussed in this thesis. The developed loading method was validated with three different railway tracks using obtained vibration measurements. Later, these numerical models were used to analyze the influence of stone column length and train speed in the stress field. The performance of the treated ground depends on various parameters, such as the strength of stone columns, spacing, length and diameter of the columns. Therefore, the second step was devoted to a parameter study of stone columns as a unit cell with an axisymmetric condition. The results showed that even short stone columns were effective for settlement reduction, and area of replacement was the main influential parameter in their performance. The third part of this thesis focuses on a hypothetical railway-track response to the passage of various train speeds and the influence of stone-column length. The stress-strain response of subgrade is analyzed under either an elastic-perfectly plastic or advanced constitutive model. The non-linear soil response in the finite element method and the impact of train speed and stone column length on railway tracks are also evaluated. Moreover, the reductions of induced vibration - in both a horizontal and a vertical direction - after improvement are investigated.}, subject = {Eisenbahn}, language = {en} } @article{ShamshirbandJoloudariGhasemiGoletal., author = {Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Joloudari, Javad Hassannataj and GhasemiGol, Mohammad and Saadatfar, Hamid and Mosavi, Amir and Nabipour, Narjes}, title = {FCS-MBFLEACH: Designing an Energy-Aware Fault Detection System for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks}, series = {Mathematics}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Mathematics}, number = {Volume 8, Issue 1, article 28}, publisher = {MDPI}, doi = {10.3390/math8010028}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200107-40541}, pages = {24}, abstract = {Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) include large-scale sensor nodes that are densely distributed over a geographical region that is completely randomized for monitoring, identifying, and analyzing physical events. The crucial challenge in wireless sensor networks is the very high dependence of the sensor nodes on limited battery power to exchange information wirelessly as well as the non-rechargeable battery of the wireless sensor nodes, which makes the management and monitoring of these nodes in terms of abnormal changes very difficult. These anomalies appear under faults, including hardware, software, anomalies, and attacks by raiders, all of which affect the comprehensiveness of the data collected by wireless sensor networks. Hence, a crucial contraption should be taken to detect the early faults in the network, despite the limitations of the sensor nodes. Machine learning methods include solutions that can be used to detect the sensor node faults in the network. The purpose of this study is to use several classification methods to compute the fault detection accuracy with different densities under two scenarios in regions of interest such as MB-FLEACH, one-class support vector machine (SVM), fuzzy one-class, or a combination of SVM and FCS-MBFLEACH methods. It should be noted that in the study so far, no super cluster head (SCH) selection has been performed to detect node faults in the network.

Comparing existing design methodologies for arch-type dams, model-based shape optimization can effectively reduce construction costs and leverage the properties of construction materials. To apply the means of shape optimization, suitable variables need to be chosen to formulate the objective function, which is the volume of the arch dam here. In order to increase the consistency with practical conditions, a great number of geometrical and behavioral constraints are included in the mathematical model. An optimization method, namely Genetic Algorithm is adopted which allows a global search. Traditional optimization techniques are realized based on a deterministic approach, which means that the material properties and loading conditions are assumed to be fixed values. As a result, the real-world structures that are optimized by these approaches suffer from uncertainties that one needs to be aware of. Hence, in any optimization process for arch dams, it is nec- essary to find a methodology that is capable of considering the influences of uncertainties and generating a solution which is robust enough against the uncertainties. The focus of this thesis is the formulation and the numerical method for the optimization of the arch dam under the uncertainties. The two main models, the probabilistic model, and non-probabilistic models are intro- duced and discussed. Classic procedures of probabilistic approaches un- der uncertainties, such as RDO (robust design optimization) and RBDO (reliability-based design optimization), are in general computationally ex- pensive and rely on estimates of the system's response variance and fail- ure probabilities. Instead, the robust optimization (RO) method which is based on the non-probabilistic model, will not follow a full probabilistic approach but works with pre-defined confidence levels. This leads to a bi-level optimization program where the volume of the dam is optimized under the worst combination of the uncertain parameters. By this, robust and reliable designs are obtained and the result is independent of any as- sumptions on stochastic properties of the random variables in the model. The optimization of an arch-type dam is realized here by a robust optimiza- tion method under load uncertainty, where hydraulic and thermal loads are considered. The load uncertainty is modeled as an ellipsoidal expression. Comparing with any traditional deterministic optimization (DO) method, which only concerns the minimum objective value and offers a solution candidate close to limit-states, the RO method provides a robust solution against uncertainties. All the above mentioned methods are applied to the optimization of the arch dam to compare with the optimal design with DO methods. The re- sults are compared and analyzed to discuss the advantages and drawbacks of each method. In order to reduce the computational cost, a ranking strategy and an ap- proximation model are further involved to do a preliminary screening. By means of these, the robust design can generate an improved arch dam structure which ensures both safety and serviceability during its lifetime.}, subject = {Wasserbau}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Tasch, author = {Tasch, Alexander}, title = {Reaktive Cu-Fe-Al-Mn-Oxidkeramiken f{\"u}r die Sauerstoffseparation aus der Luft}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4041}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20191209-40414}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, abstract = {Die Gase Sauerstoff und Stickstoff werden f{\"u}r eine Vielzahl an technischen, industriellen, biologischen und medizinischen Einsatzzwecken ben{\"o}tigt.

Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, keramische Material-Systeme auf Basis chemischer Hochtemperatur-Reaktionen als Reaktive Oxidkeramiken zu entwickeln und diese hinsichtlich eines m{\"o}glichen Einsatzes f{\"u}r die Sauerstoffseparation in neuartigen Luftzerlegungsanlagen zu untersuchen. Derartige Anlagen sollen in ihrem Prinzip an die regenerative Sauerstoffseparation angelehnt sein und in ihren Reaktoren die Reaktiven Oxidkeramiken als Festbett-Material abwechselnd mit Luft be- und Vakuum oder O2-armen Atmosph{\"a}ren entladen. Die Verwendung Reaktiver Oxidkeramiken, welche im Vergleich zu den bisherigen Materialien h{\"o}here Sauerstoffaustauschmengen und -raten bei gleichzeitig hoher Lebensdauer und Korrosionsbest{\"a}ndigkeit sowie relativ einfacher Handhabe aufweisen w{\"u}rden, soll ein Schritt in Richtung einer effizienten alternativen Luftzerlegungstechnologie sein. Mit den Reaktiven Oxidkeramiken in einer Luftzerlegungsanlage sollte es im besten Fall m{\"o}glich sein, in kleinen Anlagen sehr reinen Sauerstoff und zugleich sauerstofffreies Inertgas zu erzeugen sowie eine Sauerstoffan- oder -abreicherung von Luft, Prozess- oder Abgasen zu generieren. Somit bes{\"a}ße eine solche, auf Reaktiven Oxidkeramiken basierende Technologie sehr weit gef{\"a}cherte Einsatzgebiete und demzufolge ein enormes wirtschaftliches Potential.}, subject = {Luftzerlegung}, language = {de} } @article{Vollmer, author = {Vollmer, Lisa}, title = {Der Gentrifizierungsbegriff in wohnungspolitischen Protesten.

These methods allow the usage of conventional single objective optimization algorithms, as scalarization methods reformulate the MOO problem into a single objective optimization problem. The scalarization methods analysed within this thesis are the Weighted Sum (WS), the Epsilon-Constraint (EC), and the MinMax (MM) method. After explaining the approach of each method, the WS, EC and MM are applied, a-posteriori, to three different examples: to the Kursawe function; to the ten bar truss, a common benchmark problem in structural optimization; and to the metamodel of an aero engine exit module. The aim is to evaluate and compare the performance of each scalarization method that is examined within this thesis. The evaluation is conducted using performance metrics, such as the hypervolume and the generational distance, as well as using visual comparison. The application to the three examples gives insight into the advantages and disadvantages of each method, and provides further understanding of an adequate application of the methods concerning high dimensional optimization problems.}, subject = {Mehrkriterielle Optimierung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{VilceanuAbrahamczykMorgenthal, author = {V{\^i}lceanu, Victor and Abrahamczyk, Lars and Morgenthal, Guido}, title = {Nonlinear Analysis of Structures: Wind Induced Vibrations}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4033}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20191122-40337}, pages = {183}, abstract = {The proceedings at hand are the result of the International Master Course Module: "Nonlinear Analysis of Structures: Wind Induced Vibrations" held at the Faculty of Civil Engineering at Bauhaus-University Weimar, Germany in the summer semester 2019 (April - August). This material summarizes the results of the project work done throughout the semester, provides an overview of the topic, as well as impressions from the accompanying programme. Wind Engineering is a particular field of Civil Engineering that evaluates the resistance of structures caused by wind loads. Bridges, high-rise buildings, chimneys and telecommunication towers might be susceptible to wind vibrations due to their increased flexibility, therefore a special design is carried for this aspect. Advancement in technology and scientific studies permit us doing research at small scale for more accurate analyses. Therefore scaled models of real structures are built and tested for various construction scenarios. These models are placed in wind tunnels where experiments are conducted to determine parameters such as: critical wind speeds for bridge decks, static wind coefficients and forces for buildings or bridges. The objective of the course was to offer insight to the students into the assessment of long-span cable-supported bridges and high-rise buildings under wind excitation. The participating students worked in interdisciplinary teams to increase their knowledge in the understanding and influences on the behaviour of wind-sensitive structures.}, subject = {Ingenieurbau}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Voelske, author = {V{\"o}lske, Michael}, title = {Retrieval Enhancements for Task-Based Web Search}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.3942}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20190709-39422}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, abstract = {The task-based view of web search implies that retrieval should take the user perspective into account. Going beyond merely retrieving the most relevant result set for the current query, the retrieval system should aim to surface results that are actually useful to the task that motivated the query. This dissertation explores how retrieval systems can better understand and support their users' tasks from three main angles: First, we study and quantify search engine user behavior during complex writing tasks, and how task success and behavior are associated in such settings. Second, we investigate search engine queries formulated as questions, and explore patterns in a large query log that may help search engines to better support this increasingly prevalent interaction pattern. Third, we propose a novel approach to reranking the search result lists produced by web search engines, taking into account retrieval axioms that formally specify properties of a good ranking.}, subject = {Information Retrieval}, language = {en} }
