Erstens bezeichnet das »Kollektiv« in diesem Sinne vor allem anderen eine Ansammlung von Entit{\"a}ten zu einem als Ganzem operativen, m{\"o}glicherweise sogar handlungs- und reflexionsf{\"a}higen Komplex. Die Operationen werden dabei erstens im »Kollektiv« und durch das »Kollektiv« ausgef{\"u}hrt, gleichzeitig jedoch sind sie es, die das »Kollektiv« {\"u}berhaupt erst aufspannen und relationieren und so zusammenhalten und reproduzieren bzw. variieren. Das Besondere daran ist zweitens - und das unterscheidet den »Kollektiv«-Begriff etwa von demjenigen des Systems -, dass es keine Subsumption der beteiligten Entit{\"a}ten unter das kollektive Gebilde gibt. Die Operationsf{\"a}higkeit und der Zusammenschluss f{\"u}hren weder zu einem Aufgehen des Einzelnen im Ganzen, noch zerf{\"a}llt im R{\"u}ckfall das Ganze in eine bloße Gesamtheit aufsummierbarer Teile und Effekte. Kurz: Das »Kollektiv« kann nicht {\"u}ber die Beziehung von Ganzem und Teil definiert und schon gar nicht nach einer dieser beiden Seiten hin aufgel{\"o}st werden. Drittens, und das ist der vermutlich plakativste Zug des neuen »Kollektiv«-Begriffs, umfasst das »Kollektiv« Entit{\"a}ten v{\"o}llig heterogener Art, genauer: Es bringt solche Gegebenheiten zusammen, die nach klassischer ontologischer Tradition verschiedenen Seinsbezirken zugerechnet worden w{\"a}ren.

Und viertens schließlich ist der »Kollektiv«-Begriff speziell ein Kontrastbegriff , der innerhalb der »neuen Soziologie« der Akteur-Netzwerk-Theorie an die Stelle des Gesellschaftsbegriff s treten soll, eben um dessen humanozentrische Pr{\"a}gung einerseits und seine subsumptive, generalisierende und anti-partikulare Tradition andererseits abzustreifen.}, subject = {Medienwissenschaft}, language = {de} } @periodical{OPUS4-4847, title = {Schwerpunkt Entwerfen}, volume = {2012}, number = {3.2012, Heft 1}, editor = {Engell, Lorenz and Siegert, Bernhard}, publisher = {Felix Meiner Verlag}, address = {Hamburg}, organization = {Internationales Kolleg f{\"u}r Kulturtechnikforschung und Medienphilosophie}, issn = {2366-0767}, doi = {10.28937/ZMK-3-1}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20240507-48473}, pages = {225}, abstract = {Entwerfen ist ein {\"a}usserst unscharfer Begriff.

Jahrhunderts entstanden ist: Entwurf als disegno. Dementsprechend konnte Entwerfen in der kunsthermeneutischen Rezeption schließlich mit dem ›k{\"u}nstlerischen Schaff ensprozess‹ selbst synonym werden. Im Entwerfen meint man der geistigen Verm{\"o}gen und Prozesse im k{\"u}nstlerischen Subjekt habhaft zu werden. An diese Tradition soll hier bewusst nicht angekn{\"u}pft werden.

If the wind speed exceeds the critical flutter speed of the bridge, this constitutes an Ultimate Limit State. The prediction of the flutter boundary therefore requires accurate and robust models. This paper aims at studying various combinations of models to predict the flutter phenomenon. Since flutter is a coupling of aerodynamic forcing with a structural dynamics problem, different types and classes of models can be combined to study the interaction. Here, both numerical approaches and analytical models are utilised and coupled in different ways to assess the prediction quality of the hybrid model. Models for aerodynamic forces employed are the analytical Theodorsen expressions for the motion-enduced aerodynamic forces of a flat plate and Scanlan derivatives as a Meta model. Further, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations using the Vortex Particle Method (VPM) were used to cover numerical models. The structural representations were dimensionally reduced to two degree of freedom section models calibrated from global models as well as a fully three-dimensional Finite Element (FE) model. A two degree of freedom system was analysed analytically as well as numerically. Generally, all models were able to predict the flutter phenomenon and relatively close agreement was found for the particular bridge. In conclusion, the model choice for a given practical analysis scenario will be discussed in the context of the analysis findings.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{Aguinaga, author = {Aguinaga, Jos{\´e} Guillermo De}, title = {Error in prediction due to data type availability in a coupled hydro-mechanical model}, series = {Electronic Journal of Geotechnical Engineering}, journal = {Electronic Journal of Geotechnical Engineering}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.3117}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170413-31170}, pages = {2459 -- 2471}, abstract = {Different types of data provide different type of information. The present research analyzes the error on prediction obtained under different data type availability for calibration. The contribution of different measurement types to model calibration and prognosis are evaluated. A coupled 2D hydro-mechanical model of a water retaining dam is taken as an example. Here, the mean effective stress in the porous skeleton is reduced due to an increase in pore water pressure under drawdown conditions. Relevant model parameters are identified by scaled sensitivities. Then, Particle Swarm Optimization is applied to determine the optimal parameter values and finally, the error in prognosis is determined. We compare the predictions of the optimized models with results from a forward run of the reference model to obtain the actual prediction errors. The analyses presented here were performed calibrating the hydro-mechanical model to 31 data sets of 100 observations of varying data types. The prognosis results improve when using diversified information for calibration. However, when using several types of information, the number of observations has to be increased to be able to cover a representative part of the model domain. For an analysis with constant number of observations, a compromise between data type availability and domain coverage proves to be the best solution. Which type of calibration information contributes to the best prognoses could not be determined in advance. The error in model prognosis does not depend on the error in calibration, but on the parameter error, which unfortunately cannot be determined in inverse problems since we do not know its real value. The best prognoses were obtained independent of calibration fit. However, excellent calibration fits led to an increase in prognosis error variation. In the case of excellent fits; parameters' values came near the limits of reasonable physical values more often. To improve the prognoses reliability, the expected value of the parameters should be considered as prior information on the optimization algorithm.}, subject = {Sensitivit{\"a}tsanalyse}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AhmadZabelKoenke, author = {Ahmad, Sofyan and Zabel, Volkmar and K{\"o}nke, Carsten}, title = {WAVELET-BASED INDICATORS FOR RESPONSE SURFACE MODELS IN DAMAGE IDENTIFICATION OF STRUCTURES}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 04 - 06 2012, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 04 - 06 2012, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2758}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170306-27588}, pages = {14}, abstract = {In this paper, wavelet energy damage indicator is used in response surface methodology to identify the damage in simulated filler beam railway bridge.

It is shown that direct addressing of sparse matrices is possible in general circumstances, circumventing the traditional linear or binary search for introducing (generalized) constituents to a sparse matrix. Nested and arbitrarily interconnected multiple-point constraints are introduced by processing of multiplicative constituents with a built-in topological ordering of the resulting directed graph. A classification of discretization methods is performed and some re-classified problems are described and solved under this proposed perspective. The dependence relations between solution methods, algorithms and constituents becomes apparent. Fracture algorithms can be naturally casted in this framework. Solutions based on control equations are also directly incorporated as equality constraints. We show that arbitrary constituents can be used as long as the resulting directed graph is acyclic. It is also shown that graph partitions and orderings should be performed in the innermost part of the algorithm, a fact with some peculiar consequences. The core of our implicit code is described, specifically new algorithms for direct access of sparse matrices (by means of the clique structure) and general constituent processing. It is demonstrated that the graph structure of the second derivatives of the equality constraints are cliques (or pseudo-elements) and are naturally included as such. A complete algorithm is presented which allows a complete automation of equality constraints, avoiding the need of pre-sorting. Verification applications in four distinct areas are shown: single and multiple rigid body dynamics, solution control and computational fracture.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @masterthesis{Boewe, type = {Bachelor Thesis}, author = {B{\"o}we, Annelie}, title = {Entscheidungsfindung im Herstellungsprozess von Br{\"u}ckenkappen}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.1644}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20120425-16447}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, abstract = {Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde die Entscheidungsfindung im Herstellungsprozess von Br{\"u}ckenkappen untersucht.

Um diese Theorie zu testen, wurde auf den Grundlagen von Arbeiten der Professur Baubetrieb und Bauverfahren der Prozess n{\"a}her analysiert und unterst{\"u}tzend durch eigene Recherchen ein UML-Diagramm erstellt, welches als Aktivit{\"a}tsdiagramm ausgebildet wurde.

Within the electromagnetic wave propagation different parameters are considered that characterize it under various circumstances and of particular importance are the reflectance and transmittance. There are several methods or the analysis of the reflectance and transmittance such as the method of approximation by boundary condition, the plane wave expansion method (PWE), etc., but this work focuses on the WKB and SPPS methods. The implementation of the WKB method is relatively simple but is found to be relatively efficient only when working at high frequencies. The SPPS method (Spectral Parameter Powers Series) based on the theory of pseudoanalytic functions, is used to solve this problem through a new representation for solutions of Sturm Liouville equations and has recently proven to be a powerful tool to solve different boundary value and eigenvalue problems. Moreover, it has a very suitable structure for numerical implementation, which in this case took place in the Matlab software for the valuation of both conventional and turning points profiles.

The resulting "edge-based" smoothed extended finite element method (ESm-XFEM) is tailored to linear elastic fracture mechanics and, in this context, to outperform the standard XFEM. In the XFEM, the displacement-based approximation is enriched by the Heaviside and asymptotic crack tip functions using the framework of partition of unity. This eliminates the need for the mesh alignment with the crack and re-meshing, as the crack evolves. Edge-based smoothing (ES) relies on a generalized smoothing operation over smoothing domains associated with edges of simplex meshes, and produces a softening effect leading to a close-to-exact stiffness, "super-convergence" and "ultra-accurate" solutions. The present method takes advantage of both the ES-FEM and the XFEM. Thanks to the use of strain smoothing, the subdivision of elements intersected by discontinuities and of integrating the (singular) derivatives of the approximation functions is suppressed via transforming interior integration into boundary integration.

Since the analytical methods are not capable of solving many complicated engineering problems, numerical methods have been increasingly adopted. In this paper, a part of isotropic material which contains a crack is considered as a partial model and the proposed model quality is evaluated. EXtended IsoGeometric Analysis (XIGA) is a new developed numerical approach [1, 2] which benefits from advantages of its origins: eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) and IsoGeometric Analysis (IGA). It is capable of simulating crack propagation problems with no remeshing necessity and capturing singular field at the crack tip by using the crack tip enrichment functions. Also, exact representation of geometry is possible using only few elements. XIGA has also been successfully applied for fracture analysis of cracked orthotropic bodies [3] and for simulation of curved cracks [4]. XIGA applies NURBS functions for both geometry description and solution field approximation. The drawback of NURBS functions is that local refinement cannot be defined regarding that it is based on tensorproduct constructs unless multiple patches are used which has also some limitations. In this contribution, the XIGA is further developed to make the local refinement feasible by using Tspline basis functions. Adopting a recovery based error estimator in the proposed approach for evaluation of the model quality and performing the adaptive processes is in progress.

The geometric product is also isomorphic to the matrix product, and many vector transformations such as rotations, axial symmetries and Lorentz transformations can be written in a form isomorphic to a similarity transformation of matrices. We collect the idea that Dirac applied to develop the relativistic electron equation when he took a basis of matrices for the geometric algebra instead of a basis of geometric vectors. Of course, this way of understanding the geometric algebra requires new definitions: the geometric vector space is defined as the algebraic subspace that generates the rest of the matrix algebra by addition and multiplication; isometries are simply defined as the similarity transformations of matrices as shown above, and finally the norm of any element of the geometric algebra is defined as the nth root of the determinant of its representative matrix of order n×n. The main idea of this proposal is an arithmetic point of view consisting of reversing the roles of matrix and geometric algebras in the sense that geometric algebra is a way of accessing, working and understanding the most fundamental conception of matrix algebra as the algebra of transformations of multilinear quantities.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @misc{Grossmann, author = {Großmann, Felix}, title = {Capturing Sheep With Minecraft}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.1753}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20121107-17530}, pages = {24}, abstract = {Capturing Sheep With Minecraft befasst sich mit ausgew{\"a}hlten Problemen der Bauphysik und deren Umsetzung mithilfe des Computerspiels Minecraft.

Of particular concern is the fact that today's megacities are evolving in the developing world without corresponding growth in the economy, infrastructure and other human development indices. As urban population continues to grow in these cities of the Global South, governing institutions are usually unable to keep pace with their social responsibilities, thus, making the issue of urban governance very critical. This is because effective and efficient urban governance is highly essential for the creation, strengthening and sustenance of governing institutions. Lagos, a mega-city of over 15.45 million people and the most populous metropolitan area on the African continent epitomizes the fundamental grave characteristics of the emerging megacities of the Global South, thereby, constituting an apt choice in understanding the emerging megacities of the next generation. Two out of every three Lagos residents live in slums and de-humanizing physical and social conditions. Many of them sleep, work, eat and cook under highway bridges, at the mercy of weather elements. This research, therefore, evaluated urban governance through housing administration in Africa's largest megacity. It examines the extent of housing problems in the city, the causal factors and the culpability of government agencies statutorily responsible for the provision, control and management of housing development in Lagos - the tenth largest city in the world. A representative geographic part of the city which manifests classic characteristics of slum life, listed by Mike Davis as the largest slum in Africa and the 6th largest in the world - Ajegunle - was adopted for case study. The research design combined rigorous literature search (desk research) with quantitative and, especially, qualitative approaches to data collection. The qualitative approach was more intensely adopted because government officials often respond to enquiries with 'official answers and data' which may not be reliable and the study had to rely on keen observation of physical traces, social interaction and personal investigation. The cross-sectional research method was adopted. Information was solicited from house-owners, building industry professionals, sociologists and officials of relevant government agencies, through research tools like questionnaires, interviews, focused group discussions and personal observations. The analysis and discussion of these field data, in conjunction with the information from the desk research gave a better understanding of the status-quo, which informed the recommendations proposed in the dissertation for mitigating the problems. The research discovered that many of the statutory housing agencies have the capacity to effectively discharge their responsibilities. However, it was also shown that corruption and abdication of responsibilities by the staff of these agencies constitute primary causes of the chasm between the anticipated lofty outcome from the laudable building regulations/bye-laws and the appalling reality. It also discovered that lack of political will and apathy on the part of successive Governments of Lagos State to the improvement of housing conditions of the poor masses are major causes of the housing debacle in Lagos. Several germane and realistic recommendations for redressing the situation were subsequently proffered. These include amongst others, the conduction of an accurate census for Lagos, in conjunction with credible international agencies, as a requisite basis for effective planning of any sort. The process of obtaining legal titles for land should also be made less cumbersome, while the housing administration process should be computerized; in order to reduce inter-personal contacts between applicants and government officials to the barest minimum, as a means of curbing the wide spread corruption in the system.}, subject = {Housing}, language = {en} } @article{JiangParkRabczuk, author = {Jiang, Jin-Wu and Park, Harold S. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Enhancing the mass sensitivity of graphene nanoresonators via nonlinear oscillations: The effective strain mechanism}, series = {Nanotechnology}, journal = {Nanotechnology}, abstract = {Enhancing the mass sensitivity of graphene nanoresonators via nonlinear oscillations: The effective strain mechanism}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{JiangWangRabczuk, author = {Jiang, Jin-Wu and Wang, Bing-Shen and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Acoustic and breathing phonon modes in bilayer graphene with Moire-acute patterns}, series = {Applied Physics Letters}, journal = {Applied Physics Letters}, doi = {10.1063/1.4735246}, abstract = {The lattice dynamics properties are investigated for twisting bilayer graphene.

The behaviour of these structures is analytically unknown and is approximated with numerical simulation methods like the Finite Element Method (FEM). Therefore the real structure is transferred into a global model (GM, e.g. concrete bridge) with a wide range of sub models (partial models PM, e.g. material modelling, creep). These partial models are coupled together to predict the behaviour of the observed structure (GM) under different conditions. The engineer needs to decide which models are suitable for computing realistically and efficiently the physical processes determining the structural behaviour. Theoretical knowledge along with the experience from prior design processes will influence this model selection decision. It is thus often a qualitative selection of different models. The goal of this paper is to present a quantitative evaluation of the global model quality according to the simulation of a bridge subject to direct loading (dead load, traffic) and indirect loading (temperature), which induce restraint effects. The model quality can be separately investigated for each partial model and also for the coupled partial models in a global structural model. Probabilistic simulations are necessary for the evaluation of these model qualities by using Uncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis. The method is applied to the simulation of a semi-integral concrete bridge with a monolithic connection between the superstructure and the piers, and elastomeric bearings at the abutments. The results show that the evaluation of global model quality is strongly dependent on the sensitivity of the considered partial models and their related quantitative prediction quality. This method is not only a relative comparison between different models, but also a quantitative representation of model quality using probabilistic simulation methods, which can support the process of model selection for numerical simulations in research and practice.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @article{Kalisch, author = {Kalisch, Dominik}, title = {Wissen wer wo wohnt}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2669}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20160822-26695}, abstract = {In cities people live together in neighbourhoods.

But not all neighbourhoods are identical. The infrastructure mixture varies from neighbourhood to neighbourhood, but different people have different needs which can change e.g. based on the life cycle situation or their affiliation to a specific milieu. We can assume that a person or family tries to settle in a specific neighbourhood that satisfies their needs. So, if the residents are happy with a neighbourhood, we can further assume that this neighbourhood satisfies their needs. The socio-oeconomic panel (SOEP) of the German Institute for Economy (DIW) is a survey that investigates the economic structure of the German population. Every four years one part of this survey includes questions about what infrastructures can be found in the respondents neighbourhood and the satisfaction of the respondent with their neighbourhood. Further, it is possible to add a milieu estimation for each respondent or household. This gives us the possibility to analyse the typical neighbourhoods in German cities as well as the infrastructure profiles of the different milieus. Therefore, we take the environment variables from the dataset and recode them into a binary variable - whether an infrastructure is available or not. According to Faust (2005), these sets can also be understood, as a network of actors in a neighbourhood, which share two, three or more infrastructures. Like these networks, this neighbourhood network can also be visualized as a bipartite affiliation network and therefore analysed using correspondence analysis.

The focus of such research has been to develop solution algorithms and investigate responses or behaviors of interest.

Therefore, this study is an attempt to extend concepts of uncertainty and sensitivity analyses to assess the dynamic response of a coupled model in bridge engineering considering time-dependent vehicular loading. A setting for the sensitivity analysis is proposed, which enables performing the sensitivity analysis considering random stochastic processes. The classical and proposed sensitivity settings are used to identify the relevant input parameters and models that have the most influence on the variance of the dynamic response. The sensitivity analysis exercises the model itself and extracts results without the need for measurements or reference solutions; however, it does not offer a means of ranking the coupled models studied. Therefore, concepts of total uncertainty are employed to rank the coupled models studied according to their fitness in describing the dynamic problem.

The various partial models are combined by coupling several of their components. Due to the large number of available partial models describing similar phenomena, many different model combinations are possible to simulate the same aspects of a structure. The challenging task of an engineer is to select a model combination that ensures a sufficient, reliable prognosis. In order to achieve this reliable prognosis of the overall structural behavior, a high individual quality of the partial models and an adequate coupling of the partial models is required. Several methodologies have been proposed to evaluate the quality of partial models for their intended application, but a detailed study of the coupling quality is still lacking. This paper proposes a new approach to assess the coupling quality of partial models in a quantitative manner. The approach is based on the consistency of the coupled data and applies for uni- and bidirectional coupled partial models. Furthermore, the influence of the coupling quality on the output quantities of the partial models is considered. The functionality of the algorithm and the effect of the coupling quality are demonstrated using an example of coupled partial models in structural engineering.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Keitel, author = {Keitel, Holger}, title = {Bewertungsmethoden f{\"u}r die Prognosequalit{\"a}t von Kriechmodellen des Betons}, publisher = {Verlag der Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, address = {Weimar}, isbn = {978-3-86068-466-5}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.1556}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20120207-15569}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {390}, abstract = {Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die Entwicklung von Methoden, mit denen die Prognosequalit{\"a}t von Kriechmodellen des Betons bestimmt werden kann.

I argue that architecture old and new stems from specific cultural and social forms, and is dictated by processes of remembering and forgetting. It is through interaction (between inhabitant and object) that architecture is given innate meanings within an urban environment that makes its role in the interplay one of investigative interest. To enable the study of this performance, I develop a framework based on various theoretical paradigms to investigate three broad questions: 1) How does one study the performance of memory and forgetting through architecture in dynamic urban landscapes? 2) Is there a way to identify markers and elements within the urban environment that enable such a study? 3) What is the role that urban form plays within this framework and does the transformation of urban form imply the transformation of memory and forgetting? The developed framework is applied to a macro (an urban level study of Bangalore, India) and micro level study (a singular or object level study of Stari Most/ Old Bridge, Mostar, BiH), to analyse the performance of remembering and forgetting in various urban spheres through interaction with architecture and form. By means of observations, archival research, qualitative mapping, drawings and narrative interviews, the study demonstrates that certain sites and characteristics of architecture enable the performance of remembering and the questioning of forgetting by embodying features that support this act. Combining theory and empirical studies this thesis is an attempt to elucidate on the processes through which remembering and forgetting is initiated and experienced through architectural forms. The thesis argues for recognising the potential of architecture as one that embodies and supports the performance of memory and forgetting, by acting as an auratic contact zone.}, subject = {Stadtlandschaft}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KulchytskyyHorokhovGubanovetal., author = {Kulchytskyy, Artem and Horokhov, Yevgen and Gubanov, Vadim and Golikov, Alexandr}, title = {THE INFLUENCE OF THE LOCAL CONCAVITY ON THE FUNCTIONING OF BEARING SHELL OF HIGH-RISE CONSTRUCTION}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 04 - 06 2012, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 04 - 06 2012, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, editor = {G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus and Lahmer, Tom and Werner, Frank}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2770}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170314-27701}, pages = {10}, abstract = {Areas with various defects and damages, which reduce carrying capacity, were examined in a study of metal chimneys.

In order to make reliable prognosis about the serviceability of those structures it is of utmost importance to identify cracks as precisely as possible by non-destructive testing. A novel approach (XIGA), which combines the Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) and the Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) is used for the forward problem, namely the analysis of a cracked material, see [1]. Applying the NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) based approach from IGA together with the XFEM allows to describe effectively arbitrarily shaped cracks and avoids the necessity of remeshing during the crack identification problem. We want to exploit these advantages for the inverse problem of detecting existing cracks by non-destructive testing, see e.g. [2]. The quality of the reconstructed cracks however depends on two major issues, namely the quality of the measured data (measurement error) and the discretization of the crack model. The first one will be taken into account by applying regularizing methods with a posteriori stopping criteria. The second one is critical in the sense that too few degrees of freedom, i.e. the number of control points of the NURBS, do not allow for a precise description of the crack. An increased number of control points, however, increases the number of unknowns in the inverse analysis and intensifies the ill-posedness. The trade-off between accuracy and stability is aimed to be found by applying an inverse multilevel algorithm [3, 4] where the identification is started with short knot vectors which successively will be enlarged during the identification process.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LeMoraisSproessig, author = {Le, Hoai Thu and Morais, Joao and Spr{\"o}ßig, Wolfgang}, title = {ORTHOGONAL DECOMPOSITIONS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 04 - 06 2012, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 04 - 06 2012, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, editor = {G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus and Lahmer, Tom and Werner, Frank}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2772}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170314-27729}, pages = {10}, abstract = {It is well known that complex quaternion analysis plays an important role in the study of higher order boundary value problems of mathematical physics.
