So schlicht erkl{\"a}rt sich die grundlegende und aktuelle Relevanz des Themas der Synchronisierung ebenso wie seine kulturtechnische und medienphilosophische Ausformung. Die aktuelle medientheoretische und medienhistorische Aufmerksamkeit f{\"u}r die Verfertigung der Gegenwart (deren wichtigste Operation diejenige der Synchronisierung ist), wie sie sich auch im Jahresthema 2012/2013 der Forschungen am Internationalen Kolleg f{\"u}r Kulturtechnikforschung und Medienphilosophie (IKKM) niedergeschlagen hat, reagiert auf eine spezifische zeitphilosophische Spannungslage, die sich im Anschluss an die strukturale und poststrukturale sowie die systemtheoretische Differenztheorie einerseits und an eher empirische, ph{\"a}nomenale, aber auch technikhistorisch und -theoretisch relevante Sachverhalte andererseits ergeben hat. Den ersten Pol dieser Spannung bildet die Dekonstruktion der Pr{\"a}senz, etwa, im Sinne Jacques Derridas, der Gleichzeitigkeit von Stimme und Ohr beim Sprechen, oder, im Sinne Deborah Eschs, der Live-{\"U}bertragung des Fernsehens. Den anderen Pol jedoch bilden die dennoch sich behauptenden ph{\"a}nomenalen und funktionalen Gleichzeitigkeitserfahrungen und -effekte. Sie umfassen etwa das Miterleben des Spielzuges im Sport, wie Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht es gefasst hat, und zahlreiche andere {\"a}sthetische, insbesondere erhabene Erfahrungen. Am anderen Ende der Skala geh{\"o}ren aber auch Prozesse wie die technische Einsteuerung und Abstimmung von Taktfrequenzen in Regelkreisen und {\"U}bertragungszusammenh{\"a}ngen zu den g{\"u}ltigen Formen effektiver Gleichzeitigkeit. Auch Verdichtungsvorg{\"a}nge wie die mehr oder weniger instantane, ereignisbezogene wie ereignisf{\"o}rmige Bildung und Aufl{\"o}sung von Publika sind derlei relevante Pr{\"a}senzeffekte.

This study introduces an unconventional approach for structural optimization by utilizing the Energy method with Integral Material Behavior (EIM), based on the Lagrange's principle of minimum potential energy. An automated two-level optimization search process is proposed, which integrates the EIM, as an alternative method for nonlinear structural analysis, and the bilevel optimization. The proposed procedure secures the equilibrium through minimizing the potential energy on one level, and on a higher level, a design objective function. For this, the most robust strategy of bilevel optimization, the nested method is used. The function of the potential energy is investigated along with its instabilities for physical nonlinear analysis through principle examples, by which the advantages and limitations using this method are reviewed. Furthermore, optimization algorithms are discussed. A numerical fully functional code is developed for nonlinear cross section, element and 2D frame analysis, utilizing different finite elements and is verified against existing EIM programs. As a proof of concept, the method is applied on selected examples using this code on cross section and element level. For the former one a comparison is made with standard procedure, by employing the equilibrium equations within the constrains. The validation of the element level was proven by a theoretical solution of an arch bridge and finally, a truss bridge is optimized. Most of the principle examples are chosen to be adequate for the everyday engineering practice, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. This study implies that with further development, this method could become just as competitive as the conventional structural optimization techniques using the Finite Element Method.}, subject = {Strukturoptimierung}, language = {en} } @article{VoelkerMaempelKornadt, author = {V{\"o}lker, Conrad and M{\"a}mpel, Silvio and Kornadt, Oliver}, title = {Measuring the human body's micro-climate using a thermal manikin}, series = {Indoor Air}, journal = {Indoor Air}, number = {24, 6}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.3815}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20181025-38153}, pages = {567 -- 579}, abstract = {The human body is surrounded by a micro-climate which results from its convective release of heat. In this study, the air temperature and flow velocity of this micro-climate were measured in a climate chamber at various room temperatures, using a thermal manikin simulating the heat release of the human being. Different techniques (Particle Streak Tracking, thermography, anemometry, and thermistors) were used for measurement and visualization. The manikin surface temperature was adjusted to the particular indoor climate based on simulations with a thermoregulation model (UCBerkeley Thermal Comfort Model). We found that generally, the micro-climate is thinner at the lower part of the torso, but expands going up. At the head, there is a relatively thick thermal layer, which results in an ascending plume above the head. However, the micro-climate shape strongly depends not only on the body segment, but also on boundary conditions: the higher the temperature difference between the surface temperature of the manikin and the air temperature, the faster the air flow in the micro-climate. Finally, convective heat transfer coefficients strongly increase with falling room temperature, while radiative heat transfer coefficients decrease. The type of body segment strongly influences the convective heat transfer coefficient, while only minimally influencing the radiative heat transfer coefficient.}, subject = {Raumklima}, language =

The phantom node method is used to model the crack in the continuum region and a molecular statics model is used near the crack tip. To ensure self-consistency in the bulk, a virtual atom cluster is used to model the material of the coarse scale. The coupling between the coarse scale and fine scale is realized through ghost atoms. The ghost atom positions are interpolated from the coarse scale solution and enforced as boundary conditions on the fine scale. The fine scale region is adaptively enlarged as the crack propagates and the region behind the crack tip is adaptively coarsened. An energy criterion is used to detect the crack tip location. The triangular lattice in the fine scale region corresponds to the lattice structure of the (111) plane of an FCC crystal. The Lennard-Jones potential is used to model the atom-atom interactions. The method is implemented in two dimensions. The results are compared to pure atomistic simulations; they show excellent agreement.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{NguyenXuanNguyenBordasetal., author = {Nguyen-Xuan, Hung and Nguyen, Hiep Vinh and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Rabczuk, Timon and Duflot, Marc}, title = {A cell-based smoothed finite element method for three dimensional solid structures}, series = {KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering}, journal = {KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering}, doi = {10.1007/s12205-012-1515-7}, pages = {1230 -- 1242}, abstract = {This paper extends further the strain smoothing technique in finite elements to 8-noded hexahedral elements (CS-FEM-H8). The idea behind the present method is similar to the cell-based smoothed 4-noded quadrilateral finite elements (CS-FEM-Q4). In CSFEM, the smoothing domains are created based on elements, and each element can be further subdivided into 1 or several smoothing cells. It is observed that: 1) The CS-FEM using a single smoothing cell can produce higher stress accuracy, but insufficient rank and poor displacement accuracy; 2) The CS-FEM using several smoothing cells has proper rank, good displacement accuracy, but lower stress accuracy, especially for nearly incompressible and bending dominant problems. We therefore propose 1) an extension of strain smoothing to 8-noded hexahedral elements and 2) an alternative CS-FEM form, which associates the single smoothing cell issue with multi-smoothing cell one via a stabilization technique.

Compressed air energy storage (CAES) provides an economic and technical viable solution to this problem by utilizing subsurface rock cavern to store the electricity generated by renewable energy in the form of compressed air. Though CAES has been used for over three decades, it is only restricted to salt rock or aquifers for air tightness reason. In this paper, the technical feasibility of utilizing hard rock for CAES is investigated by using a coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) modelling of nonisothermal gas flow. Governing equations are derived from the rules of energy balance, mass balance, and static equilibrium. Cyclic volumetric mass source and heat source models are applied to simulate the gas injection and production. Evaluation is carried out for intact rock and rock with discrete crack, respectively. In both cases, the heat and pressure losses using air mass control and supplementary air injection are compared.}, subject = {Energiespeicherung}, language = {en} } @article{VoelskeGollubHagenetal., author = {V{\"o}lske, Michael and Gollub, Tim and Hagen, Matthias and Stein, Benno}, title = {A keyquery-based classification system for CORE}, series = {D-Lib Magazine}, journal = {D-Lib Magazine}, doi = {10.1045/november14-voelske}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170426-31662}, abstract = {We apply keyquery-based taxonomy composition to compute a classification system for the CORE dataset, a shared crawl of about 850,000 scientific papers. Keyquery-based taxonomy composition can be understood as a two-phase hierarchical document clustering technique that utilizes search queries as cluster labels: In a first phase, the document collection is indexed by a reference search engine, and the documents are tagged with the search queries they are relevant—for their so-called keyqueries. In a second phase, a hierarchical clustering is formed from the keyqueries within an iterative process. We use the explicit topic model ESA as document retrieval model in order to index the CORE dataset in the reference search engine. Under the ESA retrieval model, documents are represented as vectors of similarities to Wikipedia articles; a methodology proven to be advantageous for text categorization tasks.

This deformation can result in a change of the gap width between the welded parts, which leads to an unstable welding process. Inducing displacements by using a second heat source will compensate for the change in gap width, hence optimizing the welding process. The base material is 1 mm thick austenitic stainless steel 1.4301, which is welded by a CO2 laser. The second heat source is a diode laser. The gap between the welded parts was set between 0.05 mm and 0.1 mm. The influence of the second heat source on the welding process and the welding result is described. The usage of a second heat source allows a higher gap width to be set prior to the welding process.

A wide variety of techniques exists for measuring strain in the tensile test; namely the strain gauge, extensometer, stress and strain determined by machine crosshead motion, Geometric Moire technique, optical strain measurement techniques and others. Each technique has its own advantages and disadvantages. The purpose of this study is to quantitatively compare the strain measurement techniques. To carry out the tensile test experiments for S 235, sixty samples were cut from the web of the I-profile in longitudinal and transverse directions in four different dimensions. The geometry of samples are analysed by 3D scanner and vernier caliper. In addition, the strain values were determined by using strain gauge, extensometer and machine crosshead motion. Three techniques of strain measurement are compared in quantitative manner based on the calculation of mechanical properties (modulus of elasticity, yield strength, tensile strength, percentage elongation at maximum force) of structural steel. A statistical information was used for evaluating the results. It is seen that the extensometer and strain gauge provided reliable data, however the extensometer offers several advantages over the strain gauge and crosshead motion for testing structural steel in tension. Furthermore, estimation of measurement uncertainty is presented for the basic material parameters extracted through strain measurement.}, subject = {Baustahl}, language = {en} } @article{MasoodKharalNasir, author = {Masood, R. and Kharal, M.
