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.

Four cases were studied, involving two different methods of anchoring the prosthesis to the spongy bone and two cases of applied loading. The results revealed that the FG prostheses provoked more SED to the bone. The FG prostheses carried less stress, while more stress was induced to the bone and cement. Meanwhile, less shear interface stress was stimulated to the prosthesis-bone interface in the noncemented FG prostheses. The cement-bone interface carried more stress compared to the prosthesis-cement interface. Stair climbing induced more harmful effects to the implanted femur components compared to the normal walking by causing more stress. Therefore, stress shielding, developed stresses, and interface stresses in the THR components could be adjusted through the controlling stiffness of the FG prosthesis by managing volume fraction gradient exponent.}, subject = {Finite-Elemente-Methode}, language = {en} } @article{BeexKerfridenRabczuketal., author = {Beex, L.A.A. and Kerfriden, Pierre and Rabczuk, Timon and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain}, title = {Quasicontinuum-based multiscale approaches for plate-like beam lattices experiencing in-plane and out-of-plane deformation}, series = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, journal = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, abstract = {Quasicontinuum-based multiscale approaches for plate-like beam lattices experiencing in-plane and out-of-plane deformation}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Buchwald, author = {Buchwald, Anja}, title = {Der Einfluss des Kalziums auf die Kondensation von (Alumo-)Silikaten in alkali-aktivierten Bindern}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2104}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20140124-21046}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {35}, abstract = {Es werden geopolymere und alkali-aktivierte Bindemittel definiert und ihre prinzipiellen technischen und {\"o}kologischen Eigenschaften diskutiert.}, subject = {Bindemittel}, language = {de} } @article{BudarapuGracieBordasetal., author = {Budarapu, Pattabhi Ramaiah and Gracie, Robert and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {An adaptive multiscale method for quasi-static crack growth}, series = {Computational Mechanics}, journal = {Computational Mechanics}, doi = {10.1007/s00466-013-0952-6}, pages = {1129 -- 1148}, abstract = {This paper proposes an adaptive atomistic- continuum numerical method for quasi-static crack growth.

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.

Abandonment that followed the deindustrialization contributed to an estrangement, turning derelict industrial spaces and run-down factories into a ballast to conjure with. At present, industrial heritage management applies flexibility and creativity, partially overcoming the essentially traditional paradigm of heritage preservation. This approach permits sustainable conservation - utilization and integration of disused industrial constructs in the contemporary urban landscape. Being a part of the European cultural stock, industrial heritage is an exciting and unique setting from many perspectives. It is defined and consumed by many markets, ranging from the industrial heritage tourism to the market of special events and festivals. Reused industrial buildings and factories come into view as products of post-industrial societies, fitting to the Western post-industrial (consumer) culture, offering a field of activities that are at an interface between the industrial history and contemporary socio-cultural milieu. Alteration of values, growth of new roles and definitions of industrial heritage, generated by functional restructuring, is a subject which is often left behind the general discussion about sustainable conservation and adaptive reuse of industrial heritage. Yet, in the modified state, industrial heritage is very complex to understand and to define. By conducting a desk and a case study research of former industrial complexes - Leipziger Baumwollspinnerei and Mattatoio di Testaccio, this doctoral thesis aims to identify industrial heritage as a contemporary (post-industrial) concept.

Several experiments indicated that the lack of detailed planning causes about 30\% non-productive time and stacking of trades. However, detailed planning still has not been implemented in practice despite receiving a lot of interest from researchers. The reason is associated with the huge amount and complexity of input data. In order to create a detailed planning, it is time consuming to manually decompose activities, collect and calculate the detailed information in relevant. Moreover, the coordination of detailed activities requires much effort for dealing with their complex constraints.

Hybridtechnologien kommen immer dann zum Einsatz, wenn die ausschließliche Nutzung einer Technologie oder eines Werkstoffs nicht zum gew{\"u}nschten Ergebnis f{\"u}hrt. Dann kann durch Kombination unterschiedlicher Werkstoffe oder Technologien ein System geschaffen werden, das in seiner Konfiguration ein Optimum an Eigenschaften darstellt. Im Bauwesen geht die Entwicklung schon seit jeher in Richtung von immer schlankeren ar-chitektonisch ansprechenden Konstruktionen. In der gegenw{\"a}rtigen Entwicklung erm{\"o}glichen hochtechnologische Kunststoffe und Faserwerkstoffe, wie z. B. Kohlenstofffasern, sehr schlanke, leichte und dennoch hochtragf{\"a}higer Konstruktionen. Der wirtschaftliche Aspekt bei der Entwicklung von Tragsystemen bzw. -strukturen erfordert dabei in fast allen F{\"a}llen eine kosteng{\"u}nstig effiziente Ausbildung und die Optimierung von Trageigenschaften und Kostenfaktoren. Daher besteht oft die Anforderung nach einem Verbundsystem, bei dem unterschiedliche Materialien in der Art miteinander kombiniert werden, dass jeder Werkstoff f{\"u}r eine bestimmte Beanspruchung angeordnet wird und sein Tragf{\"a}higkeitspotenzial optimal aussch{\"o}pft. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit werden an konkreten Beispielen M{\"o}glichkeiten aufge-zeigt, Hochtechnologiewerkstoffe in effizienter Art und Weise zu nutzen. Der Kunststoff-Faser-Verbundwerkstoff stellt eine M{\"o}glichkeit dar, den als solches nur f{\"u}r d{\"u}nnschichtige Klebverbindungen nutzbaren Klebstoff in seinen Anwendungsm{\"o}glichkeiten zu erweitern.

Zus{\"a}tzlich bieten F{\"u}llstoffe eine M{\"o}glichkeit, die Steifigkeit des Klebstoffs zu stei-gern, was f{\"u}r viele mechanischen Beanspruchungen Vorteile mit sich bringt. Die Kombination aus einem partikelgef{\"u}llten und zus{\"a}tzlich faserverst{\"a}rkten Klebstoff f{\"u}hrt zu einem Ver-bundwerkstoff, der f{\"u}r viele unterschiedliche Anwendungen geeignet ist.

With this in mind, the finite element technique was used to build models and generate expansive pressures and damage propagation due to ASR under the influence of thermo-hygrochemoelastic loading. Since ASR initializes in the mesoscopic regions of the concrete, the accumulative effects of its expansion escalates onto the macroscale level with the development of web cracking on the concrete surface, hence solution of the damage model as well as simulation of the ASR phenomenon at both the macroscale and mesoscale levels have been performed. The macroscale model realizes the effects of ASR expansion as a whole and shows how it develops under the influence of moisture, thermal and mechanical loading. Results of the macroscale modeling are smeared throughout the structure and are sufficient to show how damage due to ASR expansion orientates. As opposed to the mesoscale model, the heterogeneity of the model shows us how difference in material properties between aggregates and the cementitious matrix facilitates ASR expansion.

Informal settlements i.e. settlements not built or developed according to the formal regulations have become a solution to many urban dwellers in developing countries. In Tanzania informal settlements accommodate people from low, middle and high income groups. The study explores the nature of potentials and challenges posed by the existence of mixed socio-economic groups in informal settlements, including an assessment of what can be done to optimise utilisation of potentials and mitigation of conflicts. Using a case study strategy, the study was conducted in Dar es Salaam city focusing on Makongo mixed informal settlement. The results show that mixed informal settlements are as a result of several factors including uncoordinated energies of people. The urban development forces that bring change in the development of the city are stronger than the public states capacity to coordinate and manage them. Informal settlements also offer user-friendly land tenure, flexibility in house construction and proximity to livelihoods. Other factors include the nature of socio-economic living patterns and extension of urban boundaries. Community members operate using social norms. Advantages of mixed informal settlements include availability of plots according to needs and affordability while a disadvantage is, people of different socio-economic groups perceive problems differently. For policies to be effective, their formulation should be derived from what is happening on the ground i.e. addressing informal settlements according to their heterogeneity. Moreover, empowered local authorities can assist in implementing national development plans; also actors in land development including government institutions, non-governmental institutions, financial institutions, private sector, professionals, political leaders, research institutions, policy-makers and training institutions need to recognise, understand and respect each other's roles, and pull resources together to minimise problems related to informality in land development; utilise potentials and minimise challenges in mixed informal settlements in Dar es Salaam.

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} } @misc{Kleiner, author = {Kleiner, Florian}, title = {Charakterisierung des Einflusses der W{\"a}rmeleitf{\"a}higkeit von Kompositmaterialien auf die thermochemische W{\"a}rmespeicherung}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4496}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210921-44968}, pages = {86}, abstract = {Mit dem stetigen Steigen des Anteils an erneuerbaren Energien wird der Einsatz von Speichern immer bedeutsamer.

Considering that the hydration of these salts yields MgSO4·7H2O and Na2SO4·10H2O as the reaction products, the maximum overall heat effect can be calculated from the heat of condensation of water vapor (44 kJ mol-1) and the heats of hydration of 75 kJ·mol-1 (for MgSO4·H2O) and 81 kJ mol-1 (for Na2SO4). Based on the densities of the two hydrated phases, this results in the very high theoretical energy densities of 2.3 GJ·m-3 and 2.4 GJ·m-3, respectively, for MgSO4·7H2O and Na2SO4·10H2O. Not only the energy density is important for the dimensioning of a storage system, but also the kinetics of hydration reactions play a major role for the application as storage material. In the present study, hydration reactions under varying climatic conditions were investigated by using water vapor sorption measurements and in-situ Raman microscopy. Using the phase diagrams, it can be clearly shown that the mechanism and the kinetics depend on the climatic conditions.

In this work, the addressed main issues include modeling of the dynamic interaction of the structures, optimization of the parameters of the dampers and comparison of their efficiency. A new approach to optimize multiple tuned mass damper systems on an uncertain model is proposed based on the H-infinity optimization criteria and the DK iteration procedure with norm-bounded uncertainties in frequency domain. The parameters of tuned mass dampers are optimized directly and simultaneously on different modes contributing significantly to the multi-resonant peaks to explore the different possible combinations of parameters. The effectiveness of the present method is also evaluated through comparison with a previous method. In the case of semi-active tuned mass dampers, an optimization algorithm is derived to control the magnetorheological damper in these semi-active damping systems. The use of the proposed algorithm can generate various combinations of control gains and state variables. This can lead to the improvement of the ability of MR dampers to track the desired control forces. An uncertain model to reduce detuning effects is also considered in this work. Next, for fluid viscous dampers, in order to tune the optimal parameters of fluid viscous dampers to the vicinity of the exact values, analytical formulae which can include structural damping are developed based on the perturbation method. The proposed formulae can also be considered as an improvement of the previous analytical formulae, especially for bridge beams with large structural damping. Finally, a new combination of magnetorheological dampers and a double-beam system to improve the performance of the primary structure vibration is proposed. An algorithm to control magnetorheological dampers in this system is developed by using standard linear matrix inequality techniques. Weight functions as a loop shaping procedure are also introduced in the feedback controllers to improve the tracking ability of magnetorheological damping forces. To this end, the effectiveness of magnetorheological dampers controlled by the proposed scheme, along with the effects of the uncertain and time-delay parameters on the models, are evaluated through numerical simulations. Additionally, a comparison of the dampers based on their performance is also considered in this work.}, subject = {High-speed railway bridge}, language = {en} }
