A photocatalytic immersion rotary body reactor with a 36-cm disk diameter was used, and was irradiated using UV-A light-emitting diodes. The rotating disks were covered with catalysts based on stainless steel grids coated with titanium dioxide. The dosing of ozone was carried out through the liquid phase via an external enrichment and a supply system transverse to the flow direction. The influence of irradiation power and ozone dose on the degradation rate for photocatalytic ozonation was investigated. In addition, the performance of the individual processes photocatalysis and ozonation were studied. The degradation kinetics of the parent compounds were determined using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. First-order kinetics were determined for photocatalysis and photocatalytic ozonation. A maximum reaction rate of the reactor was determined, which could be achieved by both photocatalysis and photocatalytic ozonation. At a dosage of 0.4 mg /mg DOC, the maximum reaction rate could be achieved using 75\% of the irradiation power used for sole photocatalysis, allowing increases in the energetic efficiency of photocatalytic wastewater treatment processes. The process of photocatalytic ozonation is suitable to remove a wide spectrum of micro-pollutants from wastewater.}, subject = {Abwasserreinigung}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Harirchian, author = {Harirchian, Ehsan}, title = {Improved Rapid Assessment of Earthquake Hazard Safety of Existing Buildings Using a Hierarchical Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Model}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4396}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210326-43963}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {143}, abstract = {Although it is impractical to avert subsequent natural disasters, advances in simulation science and seismological studies make it possible to lessen the catastrophic damage. There currently exists in many urban areas a large number of structures, which are prone to damage by earthquakes. These were constructed without the guidance of a national seismic code, either before it existed or before it was enforced. For instance, in Istanbul, Turkey, as a high seismic area, around 90\% of buildings are substandard, which can be generalized into other earthquakeprone regions in Turkey. The reliability of this building stock resulting from earthquake-induced collapse is currently uncertain. Nonetheless, it is also not feasible to perform a detailed seismic vulnerability analysis on each building as a solution to the scenario, as it will be too complicated and expensive. This indicates the necessity of a reliable, rapid, and computationally easy method for seismic vulnerability assessment, commonly known as Rapid Visual Screening (RVS). In RVS methodology, an observational survey of buildings is performed, and according to the data collected during the visual inspection, a structural score is calculated without performing any structural calculations to determine the expected damage of a building and whether the building needs detailed assessment. Although this method might save time and resources due to the subjective/qualitative judgments of experts who performed the inspection, the evaluation process is dominated by vagueness and uncertainties, where the vagueness can be handled adequately through the fuzzy set theory but do not cover all sort of uncertainties due to its crisp membership functions. In this study, a novel method of rapid visual hazard safety assessment of buildings against earthquake is introduced in which an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system (IT2FLS) is used to cover uncertainties. In addition, the proposed method provides the possibility to evaluate the earthquake risk of the building by considering factors related to the building importance and exposure. A smartphone app prototype of the method has been introduced.

However, it is economically and timely manner not feasible to inspect, repair, and augment every old building on an urban scale.

Given that various models can be used for modelling one physical phenomenon, the role of model comparison and model choice is becoming particularly important. Methods for model comparison and model choice typically used in practical applications nowadays are computationbased, and thus time consuming and computationally costly. Therefore, it is necessary to develop other approaches to working abstractly, i.e., without computations, with mathematical models. An abstract description of mathematical models can be achieved by the help of abstract mathematics, implying formalisation of models and relations between them. In this paper, a category theory-based approach to mathematical modelling is proposed. In this way, mathematical models are formalised in the language of categories, relations between the models are formally defined and several practically relevant properties are introduced on the level of categories. Finally, an illustrative example is presented, underlying how the category-theory based approach can be used in practice.

Protocols for secure authentication and encryption protect our communication with various digital services, from private messaging, online shopping, to bank transactions or exchanging sensitive information. Those high-level protocols can naturally be only as secure as the authentication or encryption schemes underneath. Moreover, on a more detailed level, those schemes can also at best inherit the security of their underlying primitives. While widespread standards in modern symmetric-key cryptography, such as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), have shown to resist analysis until now, closer analysis and design of related primitives can deepen our understanding. The present thesis consists of two parts that portray six contributions: The first part considers block-cipher cryptanalysis of the round-reduced AES, the AES-based tweakable block cipher Kiasu-BC, and TNT. The second part studies the design, analysis, and implementation of provably secure authenticated encryption schemes. In general, cryptanalysis aims at finding distinguishable properties in the output distribution. Block ciphers are a core primitive of symmetric-key cryptography which are useful for the construction of various higher-level schemes, ranging from authentication, encryption, authenticated encryption up to integrity protection. Therefore, their analysis is crucial to secure cryptographic schemes at their lowest level. With rare exceptions, block-cipher cryptanalysis employs a systematic strategy of investigating known attack techniques. Modern proposals are expected to be evaluated against these techniques. The considerable effort for evaluation, however, demands efforts not only from the designers but also from external sources. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is one of the most widespread block ciphers nowadays. Therefore, it is naturally an interesting target for further analysis. Tweakable block ciphers augment the usual inputs of a secret key and a public plaintext by an additional public input called tweak. Among various proposals through the previous decade, this thesis identifies Kiasu-BC as a noteworthy attempt to construct a tweakable block cipher that is very close to the AES. Hence, its analysis intertwines closely with that of the AES and illustrates the impact of the tweak on its security best. Moreover, it revisits a generic tweakable block cipher Tweak-and-Tweak (TNT) and its instantiation based on the round-reduced AES. The first part investigates the security of the AES against several forms of differential cryptanalysis, developing distinguishers on four to six (out of ten) rounds of AES. For Kiasu-BC, it exploits the additional freedom in the tweak to develop two forms of differential-based attacks: rectangles and impossible differentials. The results on Kiasu-BC consider an additional round compared to attacks on the (untweaked) AES. The authors of TNT had provided an initial security analysis that still left a gap between provable guarantees and attacks. Our analysis conducts a considerable step towards closing this gap. For TNT-AES - an instantiation of TNT built upon the AES round function - this thesis further shows how to transform our distinguisher into a key-recovery attack. Many applications require the simultaneous authentication and encryption of transmitted data. Authenticated encryption (AE) schemes provide both properties. Modern AE schemes usually demand a unique public input called nonce that must not repeat. Though, this requirement cannot always be guaranteed in practice. As part of a remedy, misuse-resistant and robust AE tries to reduce the impact of occasional misuses. However, robust AE considers not only the potential reuse of nonces. Common authenticated encryption also demanded that the entire ciphertext would have to be buffered until the authentication tag has been successfully verified. In practice, this approach is difficult to ensure since the setting may lack the resources for buffering the messages. Moreover, robustness guarantees in the case of misuse are valuable features. The second part of this thesis proposes three authenticated encryption schemes: RIV, SIV-x, and DCT. RIV is robust against nonce misuse and the release of unverified plaintexts. Both SIV-x and DCT provide high security independent from nonce repetitions. As the core under SIV-x, this thesis revisits the proof of a highly secure parallel MAC, PMAC-x, revises its details, and proposes SIV-x as a highly secure authenticated encryption scheme. Finally, DCT is a generic approach to have n-bit secure deterministic AE but without the need of expanding the ciphertext-tag string by more than n bits more than the plaintext. From its first part, this thesis aims to extend the understanding of the (1) cryptanalysis of round-reduced AES, as well as the understanding of (2) AES-like tweakable block ciphers. From its second part, it demonstrates how to simply extend known approaches for (3) robust nonce-based as well as (4) highly secure deterministic authenticated encryption.}, subject = {Kryptologie}, language = {en} } @article{RenZhuangOterkusetal., author = {Ren, Huilong and Zhuang, Xiaoying and Oterkus, Erkan and Zhu, Hehua and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Nonlocal strong forms of thin plate, gradient elasticity, magneto-electro-elasticity and phase-field fracture by nonlocal operator method}, series = {Engineering with Computers}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Engineering with Computers}, doi = {10.1007/s00366-021-01502-8}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20211207-45388}, pages = {1 -- 22}, abstract = {The derivation of nonlocal strong forms for many physical problems remains cumbersome in traditional methods.

This study aims to qualitatively investigate the personalized flows using two methods of visualization: (1) schlieren imaging using a large schlieren mirror and (2) thermography using an infrared camera. While the schlieren imaging was used to render the velocity and mass transport of the supplied flow, thermography was implemented to visualize the air temperature distribution induced by the PV. Both studies were conducted using a thermal manikin to simulate an occupant facing a PV outlet. As a reference, the flow supplied by an axial fan and a cased axial fan was visualized with the schlieren system as well and compared to the flow supplied by PV. Schlieren visualization results indicate that the steady, low-turbulence flow supplied by PV was able to penetrate the thermal convective boundary layer encasing the manikin's body, providing clean air for inhalation. Contrarily, the axial fan diffused the supplied air over a large target area with high turbulence intensity; it only disturbed the convective boundary layer rather than destroying it. The cased fan supplied a flow with a reduced target area which allowed supplying more air into the breathing zone compared to the fan. The results of thermography visualization showed that the supplied cool air from PV penetrated the corona-shaped thermal boundary layer. Furthermore, the supplied air cooled the surface temperature of the face, which indicates the large impact of PV on local thermal sensation and comfort.}, subject = {Bildverarbeitung}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Weissker, author = {Weißker, Tim}, title = {Group Navigation in Multi-User Virtual Reality}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4530}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20211124-45305}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {148}, abstract = {Multi-user virtual reality systems enable collocated as well as distributed users to perform collaborative activities in immersive virtual environments. A common activity in this context is to move from one location to the next as a group to explore the environment together. The simplest solution to realize these multi-user navigation processes is to provide each participant with a technique for individual navigation. However, this approach entails some potentially undesirable consequences such as the execution of a similar navigation sequence by each participant, a regular need for coordination within the group, and, related to this, the risk of losing each other during the navigation process. To overcome these issues, this thesis performs research on group navigation techniques that move group members together through a virtual environment. The presented work was guided by four overarching research questions that address the quality requirements for group navigation techniques, the differences between collocated and distributed settings, the scalability of group navigation, and the suitability of individual and group navigation for various scenarios. This thesis approaches these questions by introducing a general conceptual framework as well as the specification of central requirements for the design of group navigation techniques. The design, implementation, and evaluation of corresponding group navigation techniques demonstrate the applicability of the proposed framework. As a first step, this thesis presents ideas for the extension of the short-range teleportation metaphor, also termed jumping, for multiple users. It derives general quality requirements for the comprehensibility of the group jumping process and introduces a corresponding technique for two collocated users. The results of two user studies indicate that sickness symptoms are not affected by user roles during group jumping and confirm improved planning accuracy for the navigator, increased spatial awareness for the passenger, and reduced cognitive load for both user roles. Next, this thesis explores the design space of group navigation techniques in distributed virtual environments. It presents a conceptual framework to systematize the design decisions for group navigation techniques based on Tuckman's model of small-group development and introduces the idea of virtual formation adjustments as part of the navigation process. A quantitative user study demonstrates that the corresponding extension of Multi-Ray Jumping for distributed dyads leads to more efficient travel sequences and reduced workload. The results of a qualitative expert review confirm these findings and provide further insights regarding the complementarity of individual and group navigation in distributed virtual environments. Then, this thesis investigates the navigation of larger groups of distributed users in the context of guided museum tours and establishes three central requirements for (scalable) group navigation techniques. These should foster the awareness of ongoing navigation activities as well as facilitate the predictability of their consequences for all group members (Comprehensibility), assist the group with avoiding collisions in the virtual environment (Obstacle Avoidance), and support placing the group in a meaningful spatial formation for the joint observation and discussion of objects (View Optimization). The work suggests a new technique to address these requirements and reports on its evaluation in an initial usability study with groups of five to ten (partially simulated) users. The results indicate easy learnability for navigators and high comprehensibility for passengers. Moreover, they also provide valuable insights for the development of group navigation techniques for even larger groups. Finally, this thesis embeds the previous contributions in a comprehensive literature overview and emphasizes the need to study larger, more heterogeneous, and more diverse group compositions including the related social factors that affect group dynamics. In summary, the four major research contributions of this thesis are as follows: - the framing of group navigation as a specific instance of Tuckman's model of small-group development - the derivation of central requirements for effective group navigation techniques beyond common quality factors known from single-user navigation - the introduction of virtual formation adjustments during group navigation and their integration into concrete group navigation techniques - evidence that appropriate pre-travel information and virtual formation adjustments lead to more efficient travel sequences for groups and lower workloads for both navigators and passengers Overall, the research of this thesis confirms that group navigation techniques are a valuable addition to the portfolio of interaction techniques in multi-user virtual reality systems. The conceptual framework, the derived quality requirements, and the development of novel group navigation techniques provide effective guidance for application developers and inform future research in this area.}, subject = {Virtuelle Realit{\"a}t}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Berhe, author = {Berhe, Asgedom Haile}, title = {Mitigating Risks of Corruption in Construction: A theoretical rationale for BIM adoption in Ethiopia}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4517}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20211007-45175}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {336}, abstract = {This PhD thesis sets out to investigate the potentials of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to mitigate risks of corruption in the Ethiopian public construction sector. The wide-ranging capabilities and promises of BIM have led to the strong perception among researchers and practitioners that it is an indispensable technology. Consequently, it has become the frequent subject of science and research. Meanwhile, many countries, especially the developed ones, have committed themselves to applying the technology extensively. Increasing productivity is the most common and frequently cited reason for that. However, both technology developers and adopters are oblivious to the potentials of BIM in addressing critical challenges in the construction sector, such as corruption. This particularly would be significant in developing countries like Ethiopia, where its problems and effects are acute. Studies reveal that bribery and corruption have long pervaded the construction industry worldwide. The complex and fragmented nature of the sector provides an environment for corruption. The Ethiopian construction sector is not immune from this epidemic reality. In fact, it is regarded as one of the most vulnerable sectors owing to varying socio-economic and political factors. Since 2015, Ethiopia has started adopting BIM, yet without clear goals and strategies. As a result, the potential of BIM for combating concrete problems of the sector remains untapped. To this end, this dissertation does pioneering work by showing how collaboration and coordination features of the technology contribute to minimizing the opportunities for corruption. Tracing loopholes, otherwise, would remain complex and ineffective in the traditional documentation processes. Proceeding from this anticipation, this thesis brings up two primary questions: what are areas and risks of corruption in case of the Ethiopian public construction projects; and how could BIM be leveraged to mitigate these risks? To tackle these and other secondary questions, the research employs a mixed-method approach. The selected main research strategies are Survey, Grounded Theory (GT) and Archival Study. First, the author disseminates an online questionnaire among Ethiopian construction engineering professionals to pinpoint areas of vulnerability to corruption. 155 responses are compiled and scrutinized quantitatively. Then, a semi-structured in-depth interview is conducted with 20 senior professionals, primarily to comprehend opportunities for and risks of corruption in those identified highly vulnerable project stages and decision points. At the same time, open interviews (consultations) are held with 14 informants to be aware of state of the construction documentation, BIM and loopholes for corruption in the country. Consequently, these qualitative data are analyzed utilizing the principles of GT, heat/risk mapping and Social Network Analysis (SNA). The risk mapping assists the researcher in the course of prioritizing corruption risks; whilst through SNA, methodically, it is feasible to identify key actors/stakeholders in the corruption venture. Based on the generated research data, the author constructs a [substantive] grounded theory around the elements of corruption in the Ethiopian public construction sector. This theory, later, guides the subsequent strategic proposition of BIM. Finally, 85 public construction related cases are also analyzed systematically to substantiate and confirm previous findings. By ways of these multiple research endeavors that is based, first and foremost, on the triangulation of qualitative and quantitative data analysis, the author conveys a number of key findings. First, estimations, tender document preparation and evaluation, construction material as well as quality control and additional work orders are found to be the most vulnerable stages in the design, tendering and construction phases respectively. Second, middle management personnel of contractors and clients, aided by brokers, play most critical roles in corrupt transactions within the prevalent corruption network. Third, grand corruption persists in the sector, attributed to the fact that top management and higher officials entertain their overriding power, supported by the lack of project audits and accountability. Contrarily, individuals at operation level utilize intentional and unintentional 'errors' as an opportunity for corruption. In light of these findings, two conceptual BIM-based risk mitigation strategies are prescribed: active and passive automation of project audits; and the monitoring of project information throughout projects' value chain. These propositions are made in reliance on BIM's present dimensional capabilities and the promises of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD). Moreover, BIM's synchronous potentials with other technologies such as Information and Communication Technology (ICT), and Radio Frequency technologies are topics which received a treatment. All these arguments form the basis for the main thesis of this dissertation, that BIM is able to mitigate corruption risks in the Ethiopian public construction sector. The discourse on the skepticisms about BIM that would stem from the complex nature of corruption and strategic as well as technological limitations of BIM is also illuminated and complemented by this work. Thus, the thesis uncovers possible research gaps and lays the foundation for further studies.}, subject = {Building Information Modeling}, language = {en} } @article{AlkamLahmer, author = {Alkam, Feras and Lahmer, Tom}, title = {A robust method of the status monitoring of catenary poles installed along high-speed electrified train tracks}, series = {Results in Engineering}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Results in Engineering}, number = {volume 12, article 100289}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, doi = {10.1016/j.rineng.2021.100289}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20211011-45212}, pages = {1 -- 8}, abstract = {Electric trains are considered one of the most eco-friendly and safest means of transportation.

It became a must nowadays to develop SHM systems that provide the instantaneous status of catenary poles in- service, making the decision-making processes to keep or repair the damaged poles more feasible. This study develops a data-driven, model-free approach for status monitoring of cantilever structures, focusing on pre-stressed, spun-cast ultrahigh-strength concrete catenary poles installed along high-speed train tracks. The pro-posed approach evaluates multiple damage features in an unfied damage index, which leads to straightforward interpretation and comparison of the output. Besides, it distinguishes between multiple damage scenarios of the poles, either the ones caused by material degradation of the concrete or by the cracks that can be propagated during the life span of the given structure. Moreover, using a logistic function to classify the integrity of structure avoids the expensive learning step in the existing damage detection approaches, namely, using the modern machine and deep learning methods.

The actual damage mechanism is still not completely understood. Two recent damage theories—the glue spall theory and the cryogenic suction theory—offer plausible, but conflicting explanations for the salt frost scaling mechanism. The present study deals with the cryogenic suction theory, which assumes that freezing concrete can take up unfrozen brine from a partly frozen deicing solution during salt frost attack. According to the model hypothesis, the resulting saturation of the concrete surface layer intensifies the ice formation in this layer and causes salt frost scaling. In this study an experimental technique was developed that makes it possible to quantify to which extent brine uptake can increase ice formation in hardened cement paste (used as a model material for concrete). The experiments were carried out with low temperature differential scanning calorimetry, where specimens were subjected to freeze-thaw cycles while being in contact with NaCl brine. Results showed that the ice content in the specimens increased with subsequent freeze-thaw cycles due to the brine uptake at temperatures below 0 °C. The ability of the hardened cement paste to bind chlorides from the absorbed brine at the same time affected the freezing/melting behavior of the pore solution and the magnitude of the ice content.}, subject = {Beton}, language = {en} } @article{SchmitzKraft, author = {Schmitz, Tonia and Kraft, Eckhard}, title = {Pilot scale photobioreactor system for land-based macroalgae cultivation}, series = {Journal of Applied Phycology}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Journal of Applied Phycology}, doi = {10.1007/s10811-021-02617-7}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20211207-45401}, pages = {1 -- 10}, abstract = {Marine macroalgae such as Ulva intestinalis have promising properties as feedstock for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. However, since the quantity and quality of naturally grown algae vary widely, their exploitability is reduced - especially for producers in high-priced markets. Moreover, the expansion of marine or shore-based cultivation systems is unlikely in Europe, since promising sites either lie in fishing zones, recreational areas, or natural reserves. The aim was therefore to develop a closed photobioreactor system enabling full control of abiotic environmental parameters and an effective reconditioning of the cultivation medium in order to produce marine macroalgae at sites distant from the shore. To assess the feasibility and functionality of the chosen technological concept, a prototypal plant has been implemented in central Germany - a site distant from the sea. Using a newly developed, submersible LED light source, cultivation experiments with Ulva intestinalis led to growth rates of 7.72 ± 0.04 \% day-1 in a cultivation cycle of 28 days. Based on the space demand of the production system, this results in fresh mass productivity of 3.0 kg m-2, respectively, of 1.1 kg m-2 per year.

In addition to public health, AMR also poses a major threat to food security and economic development. Current sanitation systems contribute to the emergence and spread of AMR and lack effective AMR mitigation measures. This study assesses source separation of blackwater as a mitigation measure against AMR. A source-separation-modified combined sanitation system with separate collection of blackwater and graywater is conceptually described. Measures taken at the source, such as the separate collection and discharge of material flows, were not considered so far on a load balance basis, i.e., they have not yet been evaluated for their effectiveness. The sanitation system described is compared with a combined system and a separate system regarding AMR emissions by means of simulation. AMR is represented in the simulation model by one proxy parameter each for antibiotics (sulfamethoxa-zole), antibiotic-resistant bacteria (extended-spectrum beta-lactamase E. Coli), and antibiotic re-sistance genes (blaTEM). The simulation results suggest that the source-separation-based sanitation system reduces emissions of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes into the aquatic environment by more than six logarithm steps compared to combined systems. Sulfa-methoxazole emissions can be reduced by 75.5\% by keeping blackwater separate from graywater and treating it sufficiently. In summary, sanitation systems incorporating source separation are, to date, among the most effective means of preventing the emission of AMR into the aquatic envi-ronment.}, subject = {Abwasser}, language = {en} } @article{KrausKlausWittor, author = {Kraus, Matthias and Klaus, Martin and Wittor, Bj{\"o}rn}, title = {Experimental Analyses on the Resistance of Tapped Blind Holes}, series = {ce/papers}, volume = {2021}, journal = {ce/papers}, number = {Volume 4, issue 2-4}, publisher = {Ernst \& Sohn, a Wiley brand}, address = {Berlin}, doi = {10.1002/cepa.1273}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20220112-45553}, pages = {141 -- 147}, abstract = {Bolted connections are commonly used in steel construction. The load-bearing behavior of bolt fittings has extensively been studied in various research activities and the bearing capacity of bolted connections can be assessed well by standard regulations for practical applications. With regard to tensile loading, the nut does not have strong influence on resistances, since the failure occurs in the bolts due to higher material strengths of the nuts. In some applications, so-called "blind holes" are used to connect plated components. In a manner of speaking, the nut is replaced by the "outer" plate with a prefabricated hole and thread, in which the bolt can be screwed and tightened. In such connections, the limit load capacity cannot solely be assessed by the bolt resistance, since the threaded hole in the base material has strong influence on the structural behavior. In this context, the available screw-in depth of the blind hole is of fundamental importance. The German National Annex of EN 1993-1-8 provides information on a necessary depth in order to transfer the full tensile capacity of the bolt. However, some connections do not allow to fabricate such depths. In these cases, the capacity of the connection is unclear and not specified. In this paper, first experiments on corresponding connections with different screw-in depths are presented and compared to limit load capacities according to the standard.}, subject = {Gewinde}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Ren, author = {Ren, Huilong}, title = {Dual-horizon peridynamics and Nonlocal operator method}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4403}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210412-44039}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {223}, abstract = {In the last two decades, Peridynamics (PD) attracts much attention in the field of fracture mechanics. One key feature of PD is the nonlocality, which is quite different from the ideas in conventional methods such as FEM and meshless method. However, conventional PD suffers from problems such as constant horizon, explicit algorithm, hourglass mode. In this thesis, by examining the nonlocality with scrutiny, we proposed several new concepts such as dual-horizon (DH) in PD, dual-support (DS) in smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), nonlocal operators and operator energy functional. The conventional PD (SPH) is incorporated in the DH-PD (DS-SPH), which can adopt an inhomogeneous discretization and inhomogeneous support domains. The DH-PD (DS-SPH) can be viewed as some fundamental improvement on the conventional PD (SPH). Dual formulation of PD and SPH allows h-adaptivity while satisfying the conservations of linear momentum, angular momentum and energy. By developing the concept of nonlocality further, we introduced the nonlocal operator method as a generalization of DH-PD. Combined with energy functional of various physical models, the nonlocal forms based on dual-support concept are derived. In addition, the variation of the energy functional allows implicit formulation of the nonlocal theory. At last, we developed the higher order nonlocal operator method which is capable of solving higher order partial differential equations on arbitrary domain in higher dimensional space. Since the concepts are developed gradually, we described our findings chronologically. In chapter 2, we developed a DH-PD formulation that includes varying horizon sizes and solves the "ghost force" issue. The concept of dual-horizon considers the unbalanced interactions between the particles with different horizon sizes. The present formulation fulfills both the balances of linear momentum and angular momentum exactly with arbitrary particle discretization. All three peridynamic formulations, namely bond based, ordinary state based and non-ordinary state based peridynamics can be implemented within the DH-PD framework. A simple adaptive refinement procedure (h-adaptivity) is proposed reducing the computational cost. Both two- and three- dimensional examples including the Kalthoff-Winkler experiment and plate with branching cracks are tested to demonstrate the capability of the method. In chapter 3, a nonlocal operator method (NOM) based on the variational principle is proposed for the solution of waveguide problem in computational electromagnetic field. Common differential operators as well as the variational forms are defined within the context of nonlocal operators. The present nonlocal formulation allows the assembling of the tangent stiffness matrix with ease, which is necessary for the eigenvalue analysis of the waveguide problem. The present formulation is applied to solve 1D Schrodinger equation, 2D electrostatic problem and the differential electromagnetic vector wave equations based on electric fields. In chapter 4, a general nonlocal operator method is proposed which is applicable for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) of mechanical problems. The nonlocal operator can be regarded as the integral form, ``equivalent'' to the differential form in the sense of a nonlocal interaction model. The variation of a nonlocal operator plays an equivalent role as the derivatives of the shape functions in the meshless methods or those of the finite element method. Based on the variational principle, the residual and the tangent stiffness matrix can be obtained with ease. The nonlocal operator method is enhanced here also with an operator energy functional to satisfy the linear consistency of the field. A highlight of the present method is the functional derived based on the nonlocal operator can convert the construction of residual and stiffness matrix into a series of matrix multiplications using the predefined nonlocal operators. The nonlocal strong forms of different functionals can be obtained easily via the concept of support and dual-support. Several numerical examples of different types of PDEs are presented. In chapter 5, we extended the NOM to higher order scheme by using a higher order Taylor series expansion of the unknown field. Such a higher order scheme improves the original NOM in chapter 3 and chapter 4, which can only achieve one-order convergence. The higher order NOM obtains all partial derivatives with specified maximal order simultaneously without resorting to shape functions. The functional based on the nonlocal operators converts the construction of residual and stiffness matrix into a series of matrix multiplication on the nonlocal operator matrix. Several numerical examples solved by strong form or weak form are presented to show the capabilities of this method. In chapter 6, the NOM proposed as a particle-based method in chapter 3,4,5, has difficulty in imposing accurately the boundary conditions of various orders. In this paper, we converted the particle-based NOM into a scheme with interpolation property. The new scheme describes partial derivatives of various orders at a point by the nodes in the support and takes advantage of the background mesh for numerical integration. The boundary conditions are enforced via the modified variational principle. The particle-based NOM can be viewed a special case of NOM with interpolation property when nodal integration is used. The scheme based on numerical integration greatly improves the stability of the method, as a consequence, the operator energy functional in particle-based NOM is not required. We demonstrated the capabilities of current method by solving the gradient solid problems and comparing the numerical results with the available exact solutions. In chapter 7, we derived the DS-SPH in solid within the framework of variational principle. The tangent stiffness matrix of SPH can be obtained with ease, and can be served as the basis for the present implicit SPH. We proposed an hourglass energy functional, which allows the direct derivation of hourglass force and hourglass tangent stiffness matrix. The dual-support is {involved} in all derivations based on variational principles and is automatically satisfied in the assembling of stiffness matrix. The implementation of stiffness matrix comprises with two steps, the nodal assembly based on deformation gradient and global assembly on all nodes.

In diesem Zusammenhang stellt der Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand eine kritische Gr{\"o}ße dar, da er bei h{\"o}heren Klinkersubstitutionsraten h{\"a}ufig negativ beeinflusst wird. Erschwerend kommt hinzu, dass f{\"u}r klinkerreduzierte Betone nur ein unzureichender Erfahrungsschatz vorliegt. Ein hoher Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand kann daher nicht ausschließlich anhand deskriptiver Vorgaben gew{\"a}hrleistet werden. Demgem{\"a}ß sollte perspektivisch auch f{\"u}r frost-tausalzbeanspruchte Bauteile eine performancebasierte Lebensdauerbetrachtung erfolgen. Eine unverzichtbare Grundlage f{\"u}r das Erreichen dieser Ziele ist ein Verst{\"a}ndnis f{\"u}r die Schadensvorg{\"a}nge beim Frost-Tausalz-Angriff. Der Forschungsstand ist jedoch gepr{\"a}gt von widerspr{\"u}chlichen Schadenstheorien. Somit wurde als Zielstellung f{\"u}r diese Arbeit abgeleitet, die existierenden Schadenstheorien unter Ber{\"u}cksichtigung des aktuellen Wissensstandes zu bewerten und mit eigenen Untersuchungen zu pr{\"u}fen und einzuordnen. Die Sichtung des Forschungsstandes zeigte, dass nur zwei Theorien das Potential haben, den Frost-Tausalz-Angriff umfassend abzubilden - die Glue Spall Theorie und die Cryogenic Suction Theorie. Die Glue Spall Theorie f{\"u}hrt die Entstehung von Abwitterungen auf die mechanische Sch{\"a}digung der Betonoberfl{\"a}che durch eine anhaftende Eisschicht zur{\"u}ck. Dabei sollen nur bei moderaten Tausalzkonzentrationen in der einwirkenden L{\"o}sung kritische Spannungszust{\"a}nde in der Eisschicht auftreten, die eine Sch{\"a}digung der Betonoberfl{\"a}che hervorrufen k{\"o}nnen. In dieser Arbeit konnte jedoch nachgewiesen werden, dass starke Abwitterungen auch bei Tausalz¬konzentrationen auftreten, bei denen eine mechanische Sch{\"a}digung des Betons durch das Eis auszuschließen ist. Damit wurde die fehlende Eignung der Glue Spall Theorie aufgezeigt. Die Cryogenic Suction Theorie fußt auf den eutektischen Eigenschaften von Tausalz-l{\"o}sungen, die im gefrorenen Zustand immer als Mischung auf festem Wassereis und fl{\"u}ssiger, hochkonzentrierter Salzl{\"o}sung bestehen, solange ihre Eutektikumstemperatur nicht unter¬schritten wird. Die fl{\"u}ssige Phase im salzhaltigen Eis stellt f{\"u}r gefrorenen Beton ein bisher nicht ber{\"u}cksichtigtes Fl{\"u}ssigkeitsreservoir dar, welches trotz der hohen Salzkonzentration die Eisbildung in der Betonrandzone verst{\"a}rken und so die Entstehung von Abwitterungen verursachen soll. In dieser Arbeit wurde best{\"a}tigt, dass die Eisbildung im Zementstein beim Gefrieren in hochkonzentrierter Tausalzl{\"o}sung tats{\"a}chlich verst{\"a}rkt wird. Das Ausmaß der zus{\"a}tzlichen Eisbildung wurde dabei auch von der F{\"a}higkeit des Zementsteins zur Bindung von Chloridionen aus der Tausalzl{\"o}sung beeinflusst. Zusammenfassend wurde festgestellt, dass die Cryogenic Suction Theorie eine gute Beschreibung des Frost-Tausalz-Angriffes darstellt, aber um weitere Aspekte erg{\"a}nzt werden muss. Die Ber{\"u}cksichtigung der intensiven S{\"a}ttigung von Beton durch den Prozess der Mikroeislinsenpumpe stellt hier die wichtigste Erweiterung dar.

The goal of the coupled analytical-numerical approach is to obtain the correct solution behaviour near the crack tip by help of the analytical solution constructed by using tools of complex function theory and couple it continuously with the finite element solution in the region far from the singularity. In this way, crack propagation could be modelled without using remeshing. Possible directions of crack growth can be calculated through the minimization of the total energy composed of the potential energy and the dissipated energy based on the energy release rate. Within this setting, an analytical solution of a mixed boundary value problem based on complex analysis and conformal mapping techniques is presented in a circular region containing an arbitrary crack path. More precisely, the linear elastic problem is transformed into a Riemann-Hilbert problem in the unit disk for holomorphic functions. Utilising advantages of the analytical solution in the region near the crack tip, the total energy could be evaluated within short computation times for various crack kink angles and lengths leading to a potentially efficient way of computing the minimization procedure. To this end, the paper presents a general strategy of the new coupled approach for crack propagation modelling.

We also compare the results with graphene monolayer. In our simulations, nanosheets are exposed to a spherical rigid carbon projectile with high initial velocities ranging from 2 to 23 km/s. Results for three different structures are compared to examine the most critical factors in the perforation and resistance force during the impact. To analyze the perforation and impact resistance, kinetic energy and displacement time history of the projectile as well as perforation resistance force of the projectile are investigated. Interestingly, although the elasticity module and tensile strength of the graphene are by almost five times higher than those of MoS2, the results demonstrate that 1T and 2H-MoS2 phases are more resistive to the impact loading and perforation than graphene. For the MoS2nanosheets, we realize that the 2H phase is more resistant to impact loading than the 1T counterpart. Our reactive molecular dynamics results highlight that in addition to the strength and toughness, atomic structure is another crucial factor that can contribute substantially to impact resistance of 2D materials.

El propósito del abordaje se inscribe en conocer y realizar aportes generalizables a la comprensión de las prácticas del habitar como unidad de análisis. En ese marco, el problema de investigación se formula en el siguiente interrogante: ?'cómo se modifican las prácticas del habitar en el marco de las transformaciones urbanas, en un modo de producción capitalista? Se entiende a las prácticas como acciones elementales de las "artes de hacer" que las personas ordinarias ponen en marcha en su vida cotidiana: para circular, cocinar, trabajar, vincularse. También, a través de las mismas resignifican los espacios, les otorgan una valoración (positiva o negativa), se identifican como parte de la identidad y a su vez se reconocen lugares de (des)encuentro y vías de circulación. Para su abordaje se toma como unidad de estudio el caso de barrio G{\"u}emes. El recorte espacial (o físico) del trabajo empírico está localizado en la ciudad de Córdoba, y se sitúa en la periferia del área central. Esta localización permite comprender el surgimiento de las primeras expansiones urbanas como consecuencia del crecimiento demográfico y cómo estas, se transformaron en los primeros barrios. El recorte temporal se encuentra delimitado entre los años 2000 y 2016, respaldado intencionalmente por dos acontecimientos significativos: el censo de población (2001) y la celebración del Bicentenario de la Independencia en Argentina. Los cambios materializados en ciertos espacios urbanos, tanto en ciudades latinoamericanas (Buenos Aires, Salvador de Bahía en Brasil, México Distrito Federal, etc.) como en otras partes del mundo (New Orleans en los Estados Unidos, el distrito de Kreuzberg- Friedrichshain en Berlín, el puerto de Hamburgo en Alemania, etc.) demuestran cómo estos espacios se van transformado acorde al modo de reproducción capitalista. Pues, se trataba de espacios que en algún momento cumplieron funciones económicas-sociales jerarquizadas y luego por la dinámica misma del capitalismo, la sobreacumulación, dejan de ser rentables y pasan a ser espacios "obsoletos". En ese sentido, la omisión de acciones públicas y/o privadas, la desatención y el crecimiento de situaciones sociales conflictivas (delitos, inseguridad, degradación) en estos espacios, funciona como argumento para que los gobiernos locales comiencen a planear el futuro y modernizarlos. De esta manera, se plantean políticas urbanas con el objetivo de impulsar acciones de renovación o rehabilitación para dinamizar económicamente determinados sectores. Dos elementos discursivos aparecen como posibilitadores del proceso de renovación urbana: el turismo y el patrimonio. En ese sentido, bajo la recuperación patrimonial de ciertos lugares se dinamizan los territorios, por lo que el turismo se vuelve una herramienta económica que produce un excedente de plusvalía. La puesta en valor de bienes tangibles e intangibles atrae la afluencia de visitantes y, a la vez, es rentable económicamente. Ahora bien, muchas veces los proyectos tienen en cuenta las variables morfológicas y físicas, dejando en un segundo plano el impacto en el espacio próximo y las relaciones entre los habitantes con su territorio. Actualmente los espacios elegidos por los municipios para la intervención pública y/o privada son los barrios, puesto que son espacios cercanos al centro y considerados estratégicos. Por lo general, el argumento es la necesidad de rehabilitar/renovar zonas poco aprovechadas o degradadas con el objetivo de mejorar la calidad de vida de la población y dinamizar el sector (Brites, 2017; Guevara, 2012). Desde los 2000 el barrio G{\"u}emes asiste a un proceso de crecimiento inusitado. La cantidad de artesanos se disparó y variedad de productos ofrecidos, emergieron los comercios que forman parte de la oferta comercial, gastronómica y cultural del barrio. Hace varios años, presenta nuevos actores económicos que se pueden observar en la apertura de galerías comerciales; ubicadas sobre el eje de las calles Belgrano, Achával Rodríguez, Fructuoso Rivera y la creciente aparición de edificaciones alrededor de la feria artesanal histórica; con la venta y exposición de piezas del arte plástico, gastronomía, negocios de diseñadores cordobeses y hasta la inclusión de la idea del del "desarrollo sustentable" en los techos de las galerías. La modificación del corpus normativo, la aparición de edificación en altura y el boom económico tuvieron como resultado, la valorización del suelo urbano, la retroalimentación en el espacio con el emplazamiento de nuevas actividades comerciales y servicios culturales. A la par, en el espacio barrial se presentan nuevos residentes con otros hábitos y prácticas que ponen en disputa los modos de habitar en el espacio. A riesgo de simplificar, estas transformaciones fueron producto de los cambios políticoideológicos, de los modelos e instrumentos de gestión urbana puestos en juego en los diversos momentos históricos y de las propias prácticas sociales y culturales de los habitantes. De esta manera, se centrará la mirada analítica en las transformaciones de las prácticas del habitar de los pobladores de los Barrios G{\"u}emes, en el marco de la metamorfosis del espacio urbano (atravesado por tendencias de mediatización y mercantilización de la experiencia) que conjugó un proceso de intersección y asociatividad entre políticas públicas y expansión inmobiliaria.}, subject = {Stadtviertel}, language = {es} } @phdthesis{Fauth, author = {Fauth, Judith}, title = {A process-oriented decision model for determining the permitability of construction projects}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4602}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20220309-46020}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {325}, abstract = {In recent years, the discussion of digitalization has arrived in the media, at conferences, and in committees of the construction and real estate industry. While some areas are producing innovations and some contributors can be described as pioneers, other topics still show deficits with regard to digital transformation. The building permit process can also be counted in this category. Regardless of how architects and engineers in planning offices rely on innovative methods, building documents have so far remained in paper form in too many cases, or are printed out after electronic submission to the authority. Existing resources - for example in the form of a building information model, which could provide support in the building permit process - are not being taken advantage of. In order to use digital tools to support decision-making by the building permit authorities, it is necessary to understand the current situation and to question conditions before pursuing the overall automation of internal authority processes as the sole solution. With a substantive-organizational consideration of the relevant areas that influence building permit determination, an improvement of the building permit procedure within authorities is proposed. Complex areas - such as legal situations, the use of technology, as well as the subjective alternative action - are determined and structured. With the development of a model for the determination of building permitability, both an understanding of influencing factors is conveyed and an increase in transparency for all parties involved is created. In addition to an international literature review, an empirical study served as the research method. The empirical study was conducted in the form of qualitative expert interviews in order to determine the current state in the field of building permit procedures. The collected data material was processed and subsequently subjected to a software-supported content analysis. The results were processed, in combination with findings from the literature review, in various analyses to form the basis for a proposed model. The result of the study is a decision model that closes the gap between the current processes within the building authorities and an overall automation of the building permit review process. The model offers support to examiners and applicants in determining building permit eligibility, through its process-oriented structuring of decision-relevant facts.

In this context, the flow around deforming thin bodies is analysed using the two-dimensional and pseudo-three-dimensional implementations of VPM. The structural behaviour is modelled and analysed using the Finite Element Method.

Frequently applied finite elements of two and three-dimensional models evaluate the plasticity at defined nodes using a yield surface, i.e. by a yield condition, hardening rule, and flow rule. Corresponding calculations are connected to a large numerical as well as time-consuming effort and they do not rely on the theoretical background of beam theory, to which the regulations of standards mainly correspond. For that reason, methods using beam elements (one-dimensional) combined with cross-sectional analyses are commonly applied for steel members in terms of plastic zones theories. In these approaches, plasticization is in general assessed by means of axial stress only.

The purpose of this investigation was to boost toughness and to reduce the production cost of the FFF-printed tensile test samples with the desired part thickness. To remove the need for numerous and idle printing samples, the response surface method (RSM) was used. Statistical analysis was performed to deal with this concern by considering extruder temperature (ET), infill percentage (IP), and layer thickness (LT) as controlled factors.

In addition, statistical evaluation of the data is implemented within the tool to reveal whether the imaged area is representative for all clinker phases.}, subject = {Zementklinker}, language = {en} } @article{KleinerRoesslerVogtetal., author = {Kleiner, Florian and R{\"o}ßler, Christiane and Vogt, Franziska and Osburg, Andrea and Ludwig, Horst-Michael}, title = {Reconstruction of calcium silicate hydrates using multiple 2D and 3D imaging techniques: Light microscopy, μ-CT, SEM, FIB-nT combined with EDX}, series = {Journal of Microscopy}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Journal of Microscopy}, publisher = {John Wiley \& Sons Ltd}, address = {Oxford}, doi = {10.1111/jmi.13081}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20220106-45458}, pages = {1 -- 6}, abstract = {This study demonstrates the application and combination of multiple imaging techniques [light microscopy, micro-X-ray computer tomography (μ-CT), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and focussed ion beam - nano-tomography (FIB-nT)] to the analysis of the microstructure of hydrated alite across multiple scales. However, by comparing findings with mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), it becomes obvious that the imaged 3D volumes and 2D images do not sufficiently overlap at certain scales to allow a continuous quantification of the pore size distribution (PSD). This can be overcome by improving the resolution and increasing the measured volume. Furthermore, results show that the fibrous morphology of calcium-silicate-hydrates (C-S-H) phases is preserved during FIB-nT. This is a requirement for characterisation of nano-scale porosity. Finally, it was proven that the combination of FIB-nT with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) data facilitates the phase segmentation of a 11 × 11 × 7.7 μm3 volume of hydrated alite.}, subject = {Zementklinker}, language = {en} } @article{AnicPenavaSarhosisetal., author = {Anic, Filip and Penava, Davorin and Sarhosis, Vasilis and Abrahamczyk, Lars}, title = {Development and Calibration of a 3D Micromodel for Evaluation of Masonry Infilled RC Frame Structural Vulnerability to Earthquakes}, series = {Geosciences}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Geosciences}, number = {Voume 11, issue 11, article 468}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/geosciences11110468}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20211202-45370}, pages = {23}, abstract = {Within the scope of literature, the influence of openings within the infill walls that are bounded by a reinforced concrete frame and excited by seismic drift forces in both in- and out-of-plane direction is still uncharted. Therefore, a 3D micromodel was developed and calibrated thereafter, to gain more insight in the topic. The micromodels were calibrated against their equivalent physical test specimens of in-plane, out-of-plane drift driven tests on frames with and without infill walls and openings, as well as out-of-plane bend test of masonry walls. Micromodels were rectified based on their behavior and damage states. As a result of the calibration process, it was found that micromodels were sensitive and insensitive to various parameters, regarding the model's behavior and computational stability. It was found that, even within the same material model, some parameters had more effects when attributed to concrete rather than on masonry. Generally, the in-plane behavior of infilled frames was found to be largely governed by the interface material model. The out-of-plane masonry wall simulations were governed by the tensile strength of both the interface and masonry material model.

But due to inherent limitations of the acquisition process, the required information is often incomplete or missing altogether. To fill these gaps, citizen observations spread through social media are widely considered to be a promising source of relevant information, and many studies propose new methods to tap this resource. Yet, the overarching question of whether and under which circumstances social media can supply relevant information (both qualitatively and quantitatively) still remains unanswered. To shed some light on this question, we review 37 disaster and incident databases covering 27 incident types, compile a unified overview of the contained data and their collection processes, and identify the missing or incomplete information. The resulting data collection reveals six major use cases for social media analysis in incident data collection: (1) impact assessment and verification of model predictions, (2) narrative generation, (3) recruiting citizen volunteers, (4) supporting weakly institutionalized areas, (5) narrowing surveillance areas, and (6) reporting triggers for periodical surveillance. Furthermore, we discuss the benefits and shortcomings of using social media data for closing information gaps related to incidents and disasters.}, subject = {Katastrophe}, language = {en} } @article{Kleiner, author = {Kleiner, Florian}, title = {Optimization and semi-automatic evaluation of a frosting process for a soda lime silicate glass based on phosphoric acid}, series = {International Journal of Applied Glass Science}, journal = {International Journal of Applied Glass Science}, publisher = {John Wiley \& Sons}, doi = {10.1111/ijag.15866}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210701-44548}, pages = {1 -- 8}, abstract = {Chemical glass frosting processes are widely used to create visual attractive glass surfaces. A commonly used frosting bath mainly contains ammonium bifluoride (NH4HF2) mixed with hydrochloric acid (HCl). The frosting process consists of several baths. Firstly, the preliminary bath to clean the object. Secondly, the frosting bath which etches the rough light scattering structure into the glass surface. Finally, the washing baths to clean the frosted object. This is where the constituents of the preceding steps accumulate and have to be filtered from the sewage. In the present contribution, phosphoric acid (H3PO4) was used as a substitute for HCl to reduce the amount of ammonium (NH4+) and chloride (Cl-) dissolved in the waste water. In combination with magnesium carbonate (MgCO3), it allows the precipitation of ammonium within the sewage as ammonium magnesium phosphate (MgNH4PO4). However, a trivial replacement of HCl by H3PO4 within the frosting process causes extensive frosting errors, such as inhomogeneous size distributions of the structures or domains that are not fully covered by these structures. By modifying the preliminary bath composition, it was possible to improve the frosting result considerably. To determine the optimal composition of the preliminary bath, a semi-automatic evaluation method has been developed. This method renders the objective comparison of the resulting surface quality possible.}, subject = {Silicatglas}, language = {en} } @article{BuschowPosslerScheper, author = {Buschow, Christopher and Possler, Daniel and Scheper, Jule}, title = {Teaching Media Entrepreneurship: How A Start-up Simulation Can Increase Students' Knowledge and Encourage Them to Work in Entrepreneurial Contexts}, series = {Teaching Journalism and Mass Communication}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Teaching Journalism and Mass Communication}, number = {Volume 11, Nr. 1}, publisher = {Small Programs Interest Group}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4462}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210729-44628}, pages = {65 -- 69}, abstract = {Entrepreneurship and start-up activities are seen as a key response to recent upheavals in the media industry: Newly founded ventures can act as important drivers for industry transformation and renewal, pioneering new products, business models, and organizational designs (e.g. Achtenhagen, 2017; Buschow \& Laugemann, 2020). In principle, media students represent a crucial population of nascent entrepreneurs: individuals who will likely become founders of start-ups (Casero-Ripoll{\´e}s et al., 2016). However, their willingness to start a new business is generally considered to be rather low (Goyanes, 2015), and for journalism students, the idea of innovation tends to be conservative, following traditional norms and professional standards (Singer \& Broersma, 2020). In a sample of Spanish journalism students, L{\´o}pez-Meri et al. (2020) found that one of the main barriers to entrepreneurial intentions is that students feel they lack knowledge and training in entrepreneurship. In the last 10 years, a wide variety of entrepreneurship education courses have been set up in media departments of colleges and universities worldwide. These programs have been designed to sensitize and prepare communications, media and journalism students to think and act entrepreneurially (e.g. Caplan et al., 2020; Ferrier, 2013; Ferrier \& Mays, 2017; Hunter \& Nel, 2011). Entrepreneurial competencies and practices not only play a crucial role for start-ups, but, in imes of digital transformation, are increasingly sought after by legacy media companies as well (K{\"u}ng, 2015). At the Department of Journalism and Communication Research, Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media, Germany, we have been addressing these developments with the "Media Entrepreneurship" program. The course, established in 2013, aims to provide fundamental knowledge of entrepreneurship, as well as promoting students' entrepreneurial thinking and behavior. This article presents the pedagogical approach of the program and investigates learning outcomes. By outlining and evaluating the Media Entrepreneurship program, this article aims to promote good practices of entrepreneurship education in communications, media and journalism, and to reflect on the limitations of such programs.}, subject = {Medienwirtschaft}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KleinerRoessler, author = {Kleiner, Florian and R{\"o}ßler, Christiane}, title = {Utilizing Modern FIB/SEM Technology and EDS for 3D Imaging of Hydrated Alite and its Pore Space}, series = {ERICA-CASH II Final Converence}, booktitle = {ERICA-CASH II Final Converence}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4455}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210702-44555}, pages = {2}, abstract = {The exploration of cementitious materials using scanning electron microscopes (SEM) is mainly done using fractured or polished surfaces.

The focused ion beam (FIB) technology can cut a block of material in thin layers of less than 10 nm. This gives us a volume of 1000 μm³ with a voxel resolution of down to 4 x 4 x 10 nm³. The results can be combined with simultaneously acquired EDX data to improve image segmentation. Results of the investigation demonstrate that it is possible to obtain close-to-native 3D-visualisation of the spatial distribution of unreacted C3S, C-S-H and CH.
