For this purpose, 13 independent variables affecting GES in the study area, namely, altitude, slope, aspect, plan curvature, profile curvature, drainage density, distance from a river, land use, soil, lithology, rainfall, stream power index (SPI), and topographic wetness index (TWI), were prepared. A total of 132 gully erosion locations were identified during field visits. To implement the proposed model, the dataset was divided into the two categories of training (70\%) and testing (30\%). The results indicate that the area under the curve (AUC) value from receiver operating characteristic (ROC) considering the testing datasets of PSO-DLNN is 0.89, which indicates superb accuracy. The rest of the models are associated with optimal accuracy and have similar results to the PSO-DLNN model; the AUC values from ROC of DLNN, SVM, and ANN for the testing datasets are 0.87, 0.85, and 0.84, respectively. The efficiency of the proposed model in terms of prediction of GES was increased. Therefore, it can be concluded that the DLNN model and its ensemble with the PSO algorithm can be used as a novel and practical method to predict gully erosion susceptibility, which can help planners and managers to manage and reduce the risk of this phenomenon.}, subject = {Geoinformatik}, language = {en} } @article{ReichertOlneyLahmer, author = {Reichert, Ina and Olney, Peter and Lahmer, Tom}, title = {Combined approach for optimal sensor placement and experimental verification in the context of tower-like structures}, series = {Journal of Civil Structural Health Monitoring}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Journal of Civil Structural Health Monitoring}, number = {volume 11}, publisher = {Heidelberg}, address = {Springer}, doi = {10.1007/s13349-020-00448-7}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210804-44701}, pages = {223 -- 234}, abstract = {When it comes to monitoring of huge structures, main issues are limited time, high costs and how to deal with the big amount of data.

Having optimal experimental designs at hand before conducting any measurements is leading to a highly informative measurement concept, where the sensor positions are optimized according to minimal errors in the structures' models. For the reduction of computational time a combined approach using Fisher Information Matrix and mean-squared error in a two-step procedure is proposed under the consideration of different error types. The error descriptions contain random/aleatoric and systematic/epistemic portions. Applying this combined approach on a finite element model using artificial acceleration time measurement data with artificially added errors leads to the optimized sensor positions. These findings are compared to results from laboratory experiments on the modeled structure, which is a tower-like structure represented by a hollow pipe as the cantilever beam. Conclusively, the combined approach is leading to a sound experimental design that leads to a good estimate of the structure's behavior and model parameters without the need of preliminary measurements for model updating.}, subject = {Strukturmechanik}, language = {en} } @article{SchirmerOsburg, author = {Schirmer, Ulrike and Osburg, Andrea}, title = {A new method for the quantification of adsorbed styrene acrylate copolymer particles on cementitious surfaces: a critical comparative study}, series = {SN Applied Sciences}, volume = {2020}, journal = {SN Applied Sciences}, number = {Volume 2, article 2061}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Heidelberg}, doi = {10.1007/s42452-020-03825-5}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20210804-44729}, pages = {1 -- 11}, abstract = {The amount of adsorbed styrene acrylate copolymer (SA) particles on cementitious surfaces at the early stage of hydration was quantitatively determined using three different methodological approaches: the depletion method, the visible spectrophotometry (VIS) and the thermo-gravimetry coupled with mass spectrometry (TG-MS). Considering the advantages and disadvantages of each method, including the respectively required sample preparation, the results for four polymer-modified cement pastes, varying in polymer content and cement fineness, were evaluated. To some extent, significant discrepancies in the adsorption degrees were observed. There is a tendency that significantly lower amounts of adsorbed polymers were identified using TG-MS compared to values determined with the depletion method. Spectrophotometrically generated values were ​​lying in between these extremes. This tendency was found for three of the four cement pastes examined and is originated in sample preparation and methodical limitations. The main influencing factor is the falsification of the polymer concentration in the liquid phase during centrifugation. Interactions in the interface between sediment and supernatant are the cause. The newly developed method, using TG-MS for the quantification of SA particles, proved to be suitable for dealing with these revealed issues.

To apply ATOM in buildings, this paper presents a numerical solution to optimize the positions of transducers. This optimization avoids reflection overlaps, leading to distinguishable travel-times in the impulse response reflectogram. To increase the accuracy of the measured temperature within tomographic voxels, an additional function is employed to the proposed numerical method to minimize the number of sound-path-free voxels, ensuring the best sound-ray coverage of the room.

Since the light rays deflect when passing through fluids with different densities, BOS can detect the resulting refractive index gradients as integration along a line of sight. In this paper, the BOS technique is used to yield a two-dimensional visualization of small density gradients. The novelty of the described method is the implementation of a highly sensitive BOS setup to visualize the ascending thermal plume from a heated thermal manikin with temperature differences of minimum 1 K. To guarantee steady boundary conditions, the thermal manikin was seated in a climate laboratory. For the experimental investigations, a high-resolution DLSR camera was used capturing a large field of view with sufficient detail accuracy. Several parameters such as various backgrounds, focal lengths, room air temperatures, and distances between the object of investigation, camera, and structured background were tested to find the most suitable parameters to visualize convective indoor air flow. Besides these measurements, this paper presents the analyzing method using cross-correlation algorithms and finally the results of visualizing the convective indoor air flow with BOS. The highly sensitive BOS setup presented in this article complements the commonly used invasive methods that highly influence weak air flows.}, subject = {Raumklima}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Javanmardi, author = {Javanmardi, Leila}, title = {URBANISM AND DICTATORSHIP.

This thesis is part of a research network at Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar, which studies the 20th century's urbanism under different dictatorships. The network has provided a cross-cultural and cross-border environment and has enabled the author to communicate with other like-minded researchers. The 2015 published book of this group 'Urbanism and Dictatorship: A European Perspective' strengthens the foundation of this research's theoretical and methodological framework. This thesis investigates urban policies and plans leading to the advancement of urbanization and the transformation of urban space in Iran during the second Pahlavi (1941-1979) when the country faced a milestone in its history: Nationalization of the Iranian oil industry. By reflecting the influence of economic and socio-political determinants of the time on urbanism and the urbanization process, this work intends to critically trace the effect of dictatorship on evolved urbanism before and after the oil nationalization in 1951. The research on the second Pahlavi's urbanism has been limitedly addressed and has only recently expanded. Most of the conducted studies date back to less than a decade ago and could not incorporate all the episodes of the second Pahlavi urbanism. These works have often investigated urbanism and architecture by focusing merely on the physical features and urban products in different years regardless of the importance of urbanism as a tool in the service of hegemony. In other words, the majority of the available literature does not intend to address the socio-economic and political roots of urban transformations and by questioning 'what has been built?' investigates the individual urban projects and plans designed by individual designers without interlinking these projects to the state's urban planning program and tracing the beneficiaries of those projects or questioning 'built for whom?' Moreover, some chapters of this modern urbanism have rarely been investigated. For instance, scant research has looked into the works of foreign designers and consultants involved in the projects such as Peter Georg Ahrens or Constantinos A. Doxiadis. Similarly, the urbanism of the first decade of the second Pahlavi, including the government of Mossadegh, has mainly been overlooked. Therefore, by critically analyzing the state's urban planning program and the process of urbanization in Iran during the second Pahlavi, this research aims to bridge the literature gap and to unravel the effect of the power structure on urban planning and products while seeking to find a pattern behind the regime's policies. The main body of this work is concentrated on studying the history of urbanism in Iran, of which collecting data and descriptions played a crucial role. To prevent the limitations associated with singular methods, this research's methodology is based on methodological triangulation (Denzin, 2017). With the triangulation scheme, the data is gathered by combining different qualitative and quantitative methods such as the library, archival and media research, online resources, non-participatory observation, and photography. For the empirical part, the city of Tehran is selected as the case study. Moreover, individual non-structured interviews with the locals were conducted to gain more insights regarding urban projects.}, subject = {Stadtplanung}, language = {en} } @article{SeichterNesslerKnopf, author = {Seichter, Cosima Zita and Neßler, Miriam and Knopf, Paul}, title = {Mapping In-Betweenness.

Many buildings exist amidst the developed metropolitan areas, which are senile and still in service. These buildings were also designed before establishing national seismic codes or without the introduction of construction regulations. In that case, risk reduction is significant for developing alternatives and designing suitable models to enhance the existing structure's performance. Such models will be able to classify risks and casualties related to possible earthquakes through emergency preparation. Thus, it is crucial to recognize structures that are susceptible to earthquake vibrations and need to be prioritized for retrofitting. However, each building's behavior under seismic actions cannot be studied through performing structural analysis, as it might be unrealistic because of the rigorous computations, long period, and substantial expenditure. Therefore, it calls for a simple, reliable, and accurate process known as Rapid Visual Screening (RVS), which serves as a primary screening platform, including an optimum number of seismic parameters and predetermined performance damage conditions for structures. In this study, the damage classification technique was studied, and the efficacy of the Machine Learning (ML) method in damage prediction via a Support Vector Machine (SVM) model was explored. The ML model is trained and tested separately on damage data from four different earthquakes, namely Ecuador, Haiti, Nepal, and South Korea.

In this context, the Smarter Together, a joint research and innovation project funded through the European Union program H2020, was implemented. The project selected three lighthouse cities to test and upscale innovative solutions: Vienna, Munich, and Lyon. This master thesis presents the main characteristics of the mobility stations systems implemented in Vienna and Munich in the scope of the project Smarter Together. Its main goal is to share what can be learned from their experiences while approaching critically the concept of smart cities.

Several methods were combined for the development of this master thesis, such as quantitative secondary data, observational studies, application of survey forms, explorative expert interviews, and literature review. This work has demonstrated that the Smarter Together has a cutting-edge scope and contributed greatly to research and innovation, by creating living laboratories to test the application of technology in the urban environment.

Purely predictive material models are highly desirable to facilitate an optimized design scheme and to significantly reduce time and cost at the design stage, such as experimental characterization. The present study examined the role of three major tasks; a) single-objective optimization, b) sensitivity analyses and c) multi-objective optimization on proposed weave structures for woven fabric composites. For single-objective optimization task, the first goal is to optimize the elastic properties of proposed complex weave structure under unit cells basis based on periodic boundary conditions. We predict the geometric characteristics towards skewness of woven fabric composites via Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) and a parametric study. We also demonstrate the effect of complex weave structures on the fray tendency in woven fabric composites via tightness evaluation. We utilize a procedure which does not require a numerical averaging process for evaluating the elastic properties of woven fabric composites. The fray tendency and skewness of woven fabrics depends upon the behaviour of the floats which is related to the factor of weave. Results of this study may suggest a broader view for further research into the effects of complex weave structures or may provide an alternative to the fray and skewness problems of current weave structure in woven fabric composites. A comprehensive study is developed on the complex weave structure model which adopts the dry woven fabric of the most potential pattern in singleobjective optimization incorporating the uncertainties parameters of woven fabric composites. The comprehensive study covers the regression-based and variance-based sensitivity analyses. The second task goal is to introduce the fabric uncertainties parameters and elaborate how they can be incorporated into finite element models on macroscopic material parameters such as elastic modulus and shear modulus of dry woven fabric subjected to uni-axial and biaxial deformations. Significant correlations in the study, would indicate the need for a thorough investigation of woven fabric composites under uncertainties parameters. The study describes here could serve as an alternative to identify effective material properties without prolonged time consumption and expensive experimental tests. The last part focuses on a hierarchical stochastic multi-scale optimization approach (fine-scale and coarse-scale optimizations) under geometrical uncertainties parameters for hybrid composites considering complex weave structure. The fine-scale optimization is to determine the best lamina pattern that maximizes its macroscopic elastic properties, conducted by EA under the following uncertain mesoscopic parameters: yarn spacing, yarn height, yarn width and misalignment of yarn angle. The coarse-scale optimization has been carried out to optimize the stacking sequences of symmetric hybrid laminated composite plate with uncertain mesoscopic parameters by employing the Ant Colony Algorithm (ACO). The objective functions of the coarse-scale optimization are to minimize the cost (C) and weight (W) of the hybrid laminated composite plate considering the fundamental frequency and the buckling load factor as the design constraints. Based on the uncertainty criteria of the design parameters, the appropriate variation required for the structural design standards can be evaluated using the reliability tool, and then an optimized design decision in consideration of cost can be subsequently determined.}, subject = {Verbundwerkstoff}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Lee, author = {Lee, Sihyo}, title = {The making of totalitarian city in Pyongyang: The spatial transition from free to ideology, and for marketization}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4173}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200526-41731}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {238}, abstract = {Space is a social product and a social producer. The main aim of this thesis is to reveal 'the process of totalitarian city making in Pyongyang', especially in the light of the interaction between the power and urban space. The totalitarian city of Pyongyang was born out of modernization in the process of masses formation. During the growth of colonial capitalism and Christian liberal ideas, Pyongyang was modernized and displayed the characteristics of a modern city with industrialization and urbanization. During the introduction of Japanese colonial capitalism, peasants, women, and slaves became the first masses and urban poor, and they later transformed into the mob; their violence was finally demonstrated during the Anti-Chinese Riot. After the 1945 independence, Kim's regime formed the one-party state with a cry for revolution. They produced an atmosphere of imminent war to instill fear and hatred into the psyche of Pyongyang citizens. The regime eliminated all political opponents in 1967 and finally declared the totalitarian ideology in 1974. During this process, Pyongyang demonstrated two main characteristics of a totalitarian city: the space of terror and of ideology. The space of terror produces the fear of death and the space of ideology controls the thought and life of citizens. After entry to the market, to keep Kim's controlling power, the regime used the strategy of location exchange. The camp, market, and Foreign Currency Shop were effective tools to prepare for executives' gifts. However, the market also produces the desire not only for consumption but also for freedom and truth; it is tearing down the foundation of the totalitarian city of Pyongyang. This research focuses primarily on the interaction between political power and urban space. In the process of making a totalitarian city, the power produced urban space and it influenced the psyche of Pyongyang citizens. Even though this spatial transition has created the totalitarian city and helped maintain political power, it also led and produced intended or unintended social variation in Pyongyang society.}, subject = {Pyongyang}, language = {en} } @article{SadeghzadehMaddahAhmadietal., author = {Sadeghzadeh, Milad and Maddah, Heydar and Ahmadi, Mohammad Hossein and Khadang, Amirhosein and Ghazvini, Mahyar and Mosavi, Amir Hosein and Nabipour, Narjes}, title = {Prediction of Thermo-Physical Properties of TiO2-Al2O3/Water Nanoparticles by Using Artificial Neural Network}, series = {Nanomaterials}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Nanomaterials}, number = {Volume 10, Issue 4, 697}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/nano10040697}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200421-41308}, abstract = {In this paper, an artificial neural network is implemented for the sake of predicting the thermal conductivity ratio of TiO2-Al2O3/water nanofluid. TiO2-Al2O3/water in the role of an innovative type of nanofluid was synthesized by the sol-gel method. The results indicated that 1.5 vol.\% of nanofluids enhanced the thermal conductivity by up to 25\%. It was shown that the heat transfer coefficient was linearly augmented with increasing nanoparticle concentration, but its variation with temperature was nonlinear. It should be noted that the increase in concentration may cause the particles to agglomerate, and then the thermal conductivity is reduced. The increase in temperature also increases the thermal conductivity, due to an increase in the Brownian motion and collision of particles. In this research, for the sake of predicting the thermal conductivity of TiO2-Al2O3/water nanofluid based on volumetric concentration and temperature functions, an artificial neural network is implemented. In this way, for predicting thermal conductivity, SOM (self-organizing map) and BP-LM (Back Propagation-Levenberq-Marquardt) algorithms were used. Based on the results obtained, these algorithms can be considered as an exceptional tool for predicting thermal conductivity. Additionally, the correlation coefficient values were equal to 0.938 and 0.98 when implementing the SOM and BP-LM algorithms, respectively, which is highly acceptable.

To investigate the impact of DPV and the fan on the inhaled air quality, two types of contamination sources were modelled in the domain: an active source and a passive source. Additionally, the influence of the compared systems on thermal comfort was assessed using the coupling of CFD with the comfort model developed by the University of California, Berkeley (UCB model). Results indicated that DPV performed generally better than the desk fan. It provided better thermal comfort and showed a superior performance in removing the exhaled contaminants.

However, like other traditional data mining methods, applying it on big data comes with computational challenges. Indeed, KNN determines the class of a new sample based on the class of its nearest neighbors; however, identifying the neighbors in a large amount of data imposes a large computational cost so that it is no longer applicable by a single computing machine. One of the proposed techniques to make classification methods applicable on large datasets is pruning. LC-KNN is an improved KNN method which first clusters the data into some smaller partitions using the K-means clustering method; and then applies the KNN for each new sample on the partition which its center is the nearest one. However, because the clusters have different shapes and densities, selection of the appropriate cluster is a challenge. In this paper, an approach has been proposed to improve the pruning phase of the LC-KNN method by taking into account these factors. The proposed approach helps to choose a more appropriate cluster of data for looking for the neighbors, thus, increasing the classification accuracy. The performance of the proposed approach is evaluated on different real datasets. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach and its higher classification accuracy and lower time cost in comparison to other recent relevant methods.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{HosseinNezhadShirazi, author = {Hossein Nezhad Shirazi, Ali}, title = {Multi-Scale Modeling of Lithium ion Batteries: a thermal management approach and molecular dynamic studies}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4098}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200214-40986}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, abstract = {Rechargeable lithium ion batteries (LIBs) play a very significant role in power supply and storage. In recent decades, LIBs have caught tremendous attention in mobile communication, portable electronics, and electric vehicles. Furthermore, global warming has become a worldwide issue due to the ongoing production of greenhouse gases. It motivates solutions such as renewable sources of energy. Solar and wind energies are the most important ones in renewable energy sources. By technology progress, they will definitely require batteries to store the produced power to make a balance between power generation and consumption. Nowadays,rechargeable batteries such as LIBs are considered as one of the best solutions. They provide high specific energy and high rate performance while their rate of self-discharge is low. Performance of LIBs can be improved through the modification of battery characteristics. The size of solid particles in electrodes can impact the specific energy and the cyclability of batteries. It can improve the amount of lithium content in the electrode which is a vital parameter in capacity and capability of a battery. There exist diferent sources of heat generation in LIBs such as heat produced during electrochemical reactions, internal resistance in battery. The size of electrode's electroactive particles can directly affect the produced heat in battery. It will be shown that the smaller size of solid particle enhance the thermal characteristics of LIBs. Thermal issues such as overheating, temperature maldistribution in the battery, and thermal runaway have confined applications of LIBs. Such thermal challenges reduce the Life cycle of LIBs. As well, they may lead to dangerous conditions such as fire or even explosion in batteries. However, recent advances in fabrication of advanced materials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes with extraordinary thermal conductivity and electrical properties propose new opportunities to enhance their performance. Since experimental works are expensive, our objective is to use computational methods to investigate the thermal issues in LIBS. Dissipation of the heat produced in the battery can improve the cyclability and specific capacity of LIBs. In real applications, packs of LIB consist several battery cells that are used as the power source. Therefore, it is worth to investigate thermal characteristic of battery packs under their cycles of charging/discharging operations at different applied current rates. To remove the produced heat in batteries, they can be surrounded by materials with high thermal conductivity. Parafin wax absorbs high energy since it has a high latent heat. Absorption high amounts of energy occurs at constant temperature without phase change. As well, thermal conductivity of parafin can be magnified with nano-materials such as graphene, CNT, and fullerene to form a nano-composite medium. Improving the thermal conductivity of LIBs increase the heat dissipation from batteries which is a vital issue in systems of battery thermal management. The application of two-dimensional (2D) materials has been on the rise since exfoliation the graphene from bulk graphite. 2D materials are single-layered in an order of nanosizes which show superior thermal, mechanical, and optoelectronic properties. They are potential candidates for energy storage and supply, particularly in lithium ion batteries as electrode material. The high thermal conductivity of graphene and graphene-like materials can play a significant role in thermal management of batteries. However, defects always exist in nano-materials since there is no ideal fabrication process. One of the most important defects in materials are nano-crack which can dramatically weaken the mechanical properties of the materials. Newly synthesized crystalline carbon nitride with the stoichiometry of C3N have attracted many attentions due to its extraordinary mechanical and thermal properties. The other nano-material is phagraphene which shows anisotropic mechanical characteristics which is ideal in production of nanocomposite. It shows ductile fracture behavior when subjected under uniaxial loadings. It is worth to investigate their thermo-mechanical properties in its pristine and defective states. We hope that the findings of our work not only be useful for both experimental and theoretical researches but also help to design advanced electrodes for LIBs.}, subject = {Akkumulator}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Truemer, author = {Tr{\"u}mer, Andr{\´e}}, title = {Calcinierte Tone als Puzzolane der Zukunft - Von den Rohstoffen bis zur Wirkung im Beton}, isbn = {978-3-00-065011-6}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4096}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200214-40968}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, pages = {222}, abstract = {Vor dem Hintergrund einer stetig wachsenden Nachfrage an Beton wie auch ambitionierter Reduktionsziele beim in der Zementproduktion anfallenden CO2 gelten calcinierte Tone als derzeit aussichtsreichste technische Neuerung im Bereich nachhaltiger Bindemittelkonzepte. Unter Ausnutzung ihrer Puzzolanit{\"a}t soll ein erheblicher Teil der Klinkerkomponente im Zement ersetzt werden, wobei der zu ihrer Aktivierung notwendige Energiebedarf vergleichsweise niedrig ist. Wesentliche Vorteile der Tone sind ihre weltweit nahezu unbegrenzte Verf{\"u}gbarkeit sowie der {\"a}ußerst geringe rohstoffbedingte CO2-Ausstoß w{\"a}hrend der Calcinierung. Schwierigkeiten auf dem Weg der Umsetzung bestehen allerdings in der Vielseitigkeit des Systems, welches durch eine hohe Variet{\"a}t der Rohtone und des daraus folgenden thermischen Verhaltens gekennzeichnet ist. Entsprechend schwierig ist die {\"U}bertragbarkeit von Erfahrungen mit bereits etablierten calcinierten Tonen wie dem Metakaolin, der sich durch hohe Reinheit, einen aufwendigen Aufbereitungsprozess und eine entsprechend hohe Reaktivit{\"a}t auszeichnet. Ziel der Arbeit ist es daher, den bereits erlangten Kenntnisstand auf andere, wirtschaftlich relevante Tone zu erweitern und deren Eignung f{\"u}r die Anwendung im Beton herauszuarbeiten. In einem mehrstufigen Arbeitsprogramm wurde untersucht, inwieweit großtechnisch nutzbare Tone aktivierbar sind und welche Eigenschaften sich daraus f{\"u}r Zement und Beton ergeben. Die dabei festgestellte Reihenfolge Kaolinit > Montmorillonit > Illit beschreibt sowohl die Reaktivit{\"a}t der Brennprodukte als auch umgekehrt die H{\"o}he der optimalen Calciniertemperatur. Auch wandelt sich der Charakter der entstandenen Metaphasen in dieser Abfolge von r{\"o}ntgenamorph und hochreaktiv zu glasig und reaktionstr{\"a}ge. Trotz dieser Einordnung konnte selbst mit dem Illit eine mit Steinkohlenflugasche vergleichbare Puzzolanit{\"a}t festgestellt werden. Dies best{\"a}tigte sich anschließend in Parameterversuchen, bei denen die Einfl{\"u}sse von Rohstoffqualit{\"a}t, Calcinierung, Aufbereitung und Zement hinsichtlich der Reaktivit{\"a}tsausbeute bewertet wurden. Die Bandbreite der erzielbaren Qualit{\"a}ten ist dabei immens und gipfelt nicht zuletzt in stark unterschiedlichen Wirkungen auf die Festbetoneigenschaften. Hier machte sich vor allem die f{\"u}r Puzzolane typische Porenverfeinerung bemerkbar, sodass viele von Transportvorg{\"a}ngen abh{\"a}ngige Schadmechanismen unterdr{\"u}ckt wurden. Andere Schadex-positionen wie der Frostangriff ließen sich durch Zusatzmaßnahmen wie dem Eintrag von Luftporen beherrschen. Zu bem{\"a}ngeln sind vor allem die schlechte Verarbeitbarkeit kaolinitischer Metatone wie auch die f{\"u}r Puzzolane stark ausgepr{\"a}gte Carbonatisierungsneigung. Wesentliches Ergebnis der Arbeit ist, dass auch Tone, die bisher als geringwertig bez{\"u}glich des Aktivierungspotentials galten, nutzbare puzzolanische Eigenschaften entwickeln k{\"o}nnen. So kann selbst ein stark verunreinigter Illit-Ton die Qualit{\"a}t von Flugasche erreichen.

Damit lassen sich gute bis sehr gute Betoneigenschaften erzielen, sodass die Leistungsf{\"a}higkeit etablierter Kompositmaterialien erreicht wird. Somit sind die Voraussetzungen f{\"u}r eine umfangreiche Nutzung der erheblichen Tonmengen im Zement und Beton gegeben.

This work deals with the assessment and development of models for aerodynamic and aeroelastic analyses of long-span bridges. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and semi-analytical aerodynamic models are employed to compute the bridge response due to both turbulent and laminar free-stream. For the assessment of these models, a comparative methodology is developed that consists of two steps, a qualitative and a quantitative one. The first, qualitative, step involves an extension of an existing approach based on Category Theory and its application to the field of bridge aerodynamics. Initially, the approach is extended to consider model comparability and completeness. Then, the complexity of the CFD and twelve semi-analytical models are evaluated based on their mathematical constructions, yielding a diagrammatic representation of model quality. In the second, quantitative, step of the comparative methodology, the discrepancy of a system response quantity for time-dependent aerodynamic models is quantified using comparison metrics for time-histories. Nine metrics are established on a uniform basis to quantify the discrepancies in local and global signal features that are of interest in bridge aerodynamics. These signal features involve quantities such as phase, time-varying frequency and magnitude content, probability density, non-stationarity, and nonlinearity. The two-dimensional (2D) Vortex Particle Method is used for the discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations including a Pseudo-three dimensional (Pseudo-3D) extension within an existing CFD solver. The Pseudo-3D Vortex Method considers the 3D structural behavior for aeroelastic analyses by positioning 2D fluid strips along a line-like structure. A novel turbulent Pseudo-3D Vortex Method is developed by combining the laminar Pseudo-3D VPM and a previously developed 2D method for the generation of free-stream turbulence. Using analytical derivations, it is shown that the fluid velocity correlation is maintained between the CFD strips. Furthermore, a new method is presented for the determination of the complex aerodynamic admittance under deterministic sinusoidal gusts using the Vortex Particle Method. The sinusoidal gusts are simulated by modeling the wakes of flapping airfoils in the CFD domain with inflow vortex particles. Positioning a section downstream yields sinusoidal forces that are used for determining all six components of the complex aerodynamic admittance. A closed-form analytical relation is derived, based on an existing analytical model. With this relation, the inflow particles' strength can be related with the target gust amplitudes a priori. The developed methodologies are combined in a synergistic framework, which is applied to both fundamental examples and practical case studies. Where possible, the results are verified and validated. The outcome of this work is intended to shed some light on the complex wind-bridge interaction and suggest appropriate modeling strategies for an enhanced design.}, subject = {Br{\"u}cke}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Jentzsch, author = {Jentzsch, Sina}, title = {Appell der Dinge.

The occupancy demand has rapidly increased the construction rate, whereas the inadequate design of structures prone to more vulnerability. Buildings constructed before the development of seismic codes have an additional susceptibility to earthquake vibrations. The structural collapse causes an economic loss as well as setbacks for human lives. An application of different theoretical methods to analyze the structural behavior is expensive and time-consuming. Therefore, introducing a rapid vulnerability assessment method to check structural performances is necessary for future developments. The process, as mentioned earlier, is known as Rapid Visual Screening (RVS). This technique has been generated to identify, inventory, and screen structures that are potentially hazardous. Sometimes, poor construction quality does not provide some of the required parameters; in this case, the RVS process turns into a tedious scenario. Hence, to tackle such a situation, multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods for the seismic vulnerability assessment opens a new gateway. The different parameters required by RVS can be taken in MCDM. MCDM evaluates multiple conflicting criteria in decision making in several fields. This paper has aimed to bridge the gap between RVS and MCDM. Furthermore, to define the correlation between these techniques, implementation of the methodologies from Indian, Turkish, and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) codes has been done.

As the use of the Internet in cities becomes more intense and diverse, there is also a restructuring of urban space, which is experienced by groups in society in various ways, according to the specificity of each context. Accordingly, large Internet companies have emerged as new players in the processes of urbanization, either through partnerships with the public administration or through various services offered directly to urban residents. Once these corporations are key actors in the digitalization of urban services, their operations can affect the patterns of urban inequality and generate a series of new struggles over the production of space. Interested in analyzing this phenomena from the perspective of civil society, the present Master Thesis examined a social movement that prevented Google to settle a new startup campus in the district of Kreuzberg, in Berlin. By asking why Google was not welcome in that context, this study also sought to understand how internet, as well as its main operators, has affected everyday life in the city. Thus, besides analyzing the movement, I investigated the particularities of the urban context where it arose and the elements that distinguish the mobilization's opponent. In pursuit of an interdisciplinary approach, I analyzed and discussed the results of empirical research in dialogue with critical theories in the fields of urban studies and the Internet, with emphasis on Castells' definitions of urban social movements and network society (1983, 2009, 2015), Couldry's and Mejias' (2019) idea of data colonialism, Lef{\`e}bvre's (1991, 1996) concepts of abstract space and the right to the city, as well as Zuboff's (2019) theory of surveillance capitalism. The case at hand has exposed that Google plays a prominent role in the way the Internet has been developed and deployed in cities. From the perspective accessed, the current appropriation of Internet technologies has been detrimental to individual autonomy and has contributed to intensifying existing inequalities in the city. The alternative vision to this relies mainly on the promotion of decentralized solidarity networks.}, subject = {Soziale Bewegung}, language = {en} } @article{MosaviShamshirbandEsmaeilbeikietal., author = {Mosavi, Amir and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Esmaeilbeiki, Fatemeh and Zarehaghi, Davoud and Neyshabouri, Mohammadreza and Samadianfard, Saeed and Ghorbani, Mohammad Ali and Nabipour, Narjes and Chau, Kwok-Wing}, title = {Comparative analysis of hybrid models of firefly optimization algorithm with support vector machines and multilayer perceptron for predicting soil temperature at different depths}, series = {Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics}, number = {Volume 14, Issue 1}, doi = {10.1080/19942060.2020.1788644}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200911-42347}, pages = {939 -- 953}, abstract = {This research aims to model soil temperature (ST) using machine learning models of multilayer perceptron (MLP) algorithm and support vector machine (SVM) in hybrid form with the Firefly optimization algorithm, i.e. MLP-FFA and SVM-FFA.

F{\"u}r diesen Zweck wird ein spezielle finite Element (Kopplungselement) verwendet, das die Stetigkeit der L{\"o}sung sowohl mit dem analytischen Element als auch mit den normalen CST Elementen gew{\"a}hrleistet. Die interpolationsbasierte gekoppelte Methode ist zwar f{\"u}r beliebige Knotenanzahl auf dem Interface ΓAD anwendbar, aber es konnte durch die Untersuchung von der Interpolationsmatrix und numerische Simulationen festgestellt werden, dass sie schlecht konditioniert ist. Um das Problem mit den numerischen Instabilit{\"a}ten zu bew{\"a}ltigen, wurde eine approximationsbasierte Kopplungsmethode entwickelt und untersucht. Die Stabilit{\"a}t dieser Methode wurde anschließend anhand der Untersuchung von der Gramschen Matrix des verwendeten Basissystems auf zwei Intervallen [-π,π] und [-2π,2π] beurteilt. Die Gramsche Matrix auf dem Intervall [-2π,2π] hat einen g{\"u}nstigeren Konditionszahl in der Abh{\"a}ngigkeit von der Anzahl der Kopplungsknoten auf dem Interface aufgewiesen. Um die dazu geh{\"o}rigen numerischen Instabilit{\"a}ten ausschließen zu k{\"o}nnen wird das Basissystem mit Hilfe vom Gram-Schmidtschen Orthogonalisierungsverfahren auf beiden Intervallen orthogonalisiert.

Die Methode des konsistentes Sampling, die h{\"a}ufig in der Nachrichtentechnik verwendet wird, wurde zur Realisierung von der approximationsbasierten Kopplung herangezogen. Eine Beschr{\"a}nkung dieser Methode ist es, dass die Anzahl der Sampling-Basisfunktionen muss gleich der Anzahl der Wiederherstellungsbasisfunktionen sein. Das hat dazu gef{\"u}hrt, dass das eingef{\"u}hrt Basissys-tem (mit 2 n Basisfunktionen) nur mit n Basisfunktion verwendet werden kann.

I argue that architectural heritage is a medium where specific cultural and social decisions form its way of presentation, and it reflects the values and interests of the period. By the process of remembering and forgetting, the meanings between inhabitant and object in urban environment are practiced, and the meanings are created. To enable the research in narrative observation, cultural tourism management is chosen as the main research object, which reflects the alteration of interaction between the architectural heritage and urban identity. Identifying the role of heritage management, the definition of social resilience and the prospects of cultural heritage as a means of social resilience are addressed. Case region of the research is East Ger- many, thereby, the study examines the distinct approaches and objectives regarding heritage management under the different political systems along the German reunification process. The framework is based on various theoretical paradigms to investigate the broad research questions: 1) What is the role of historic urban quarters in the revitalisation of East German towns? 2) How was the transition processed by cultural heritage management? 3) How did policy affect residents' lives? The case study is applied to macro level (city level: Gotha and Eisenach) and micro level study (object level: specific heritage sites), to analyse the performance of selective remembering and making tourist destination through giving significance to specific heritage. By means of site observations, archival research, qualitative inter- views, photographs, and discourse analysis on printed tourism materials, the study demonstrates that certain sites and characteristics of the city enable creating and focusing messages, which aids the social resilience. Combining theory and empirical studies this thesis attempts to widen the academic discussion regarding the practice of remembering and forgetting driven by cultural heritage. The thesis argues for cultural heritage tourism as an element of social resilience and one that embraces the historic and cultural identity of the inhabitants.}, subject = {Stadtmarketing}, language = {en} } @article{KargarSamadianfardParsaetal., author = {Kargar, Katayoun and Samadianfard, Saeed and Parsa, Javad and Nabipour, Narjes and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Mosavi, Amir and Chau, Kwok-Wing}, title = {Estimating longitudinal dispersion coefficient in natural streams using empirical models and machine learning algorithms}, series = {Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics}, number = {Volume 14, No. 1}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, doi = {10.1080/19942060.2020.1712260}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200128-40775}, pages = {311 -- 322}, abstract = {The longitudinal dispersion coefficient (LDC) plays an important role in modeling the transport of pollutants and sediment in natural rivers. As a result of transportation processes, the concentration of pollutants changes along the river. Various studies have been conducted to provide simple equations for estimating LDC. In this study, machine learning methods, namely support vector regression, Gaussian process regression, M5 model tree (M5P) and random forest, and multiple linear regression were examined in predicting the LDC in natural streams. Data sets from 60 rivers around the world with different hydraulic and geometric features were gathered to develop models for LDC estimation. Statistical criteria, including correlation coefficient (CC), root mean squared error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE), were used to scrutinize the models. The LDC values estimated by these models were compared with the corresponding results of common empirical models. The Taylor chart was used to evaluate the models and the results showed that among the machine learning models, M5P had superior performance, with CC of 0.823, RMSE of 454.9 and MAE of 380.9. The model of Sahay and Dutta, with CC of 0.795, RMSE of 460.7 and MAE of 306.1, gave more precise results than the other empirical models. The main advantage of M5P models is their ability to provide practical formulae. In conclusion, the results proved that the developed M5P model with simple formulations was superior to other machine learning models and empirical models; therefore, it can be used as a proper tool for estimating the LDC in rivers.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @article{DehghaniSalehiMosavietal., author = {Dehghani, Majid and Salehi, Somayeh and Mosavi, Amir and Nabipour, Narjes and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Ghamisi, Pedram}, title = {Spatial Analysis of Seasonal Precipitation over Iran: Co-Variation with Climate Indices}, series = {ISPRS, International Journal of Geo-Information}, volume = {2020}, journal = {ISPRS, International Journal of Geo-Information}, number = {Volume 9, Issue 2, 73}, publisher = {MDPI}, doi = {10.3390/ijgi9020073}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200128-40740}, pages = {23}, abstract = {Temporary changes in precipitation may lead to sustained and severe drought or massive floods in different parts of the world. Knowing the variation in precipitation can effectively help the water resources decision-makers in water resources management. Large-scale circulation drivers have a considerable impact on precipitation in different parts of the world. In this research, the impact of El Ni{\~n}o-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), and North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on seasonal precipitation over Iran was investigated. For this purpose, 103 synoptic stations with at least 30 years of data were utilized. The Spearman correlation coefficient between the indices in the previous 12 months with seasonal precipitation was calculated, and the meaningful correlations were extracted. Then, the month in which each of these indices has the highest correlation with seasonal precipitation was determined. Finally, the overall amount of increase or decrease in seasonal precipitation due to each of these indices was calculated. Results indicate the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), NAO, and PDO have the most impact on seasonal precipitation, respectively. Additionally, these indices have the highest impact on the precipitation in winter, autumn, spring, and summer, respectively. SOI has a diverse impact on winter precipitation compared to the PDO and NAO, while in the other seasons, each index has its special impact on seasonal precipitation. Generally, all indices in different phases may decrease the seasonal precipitation up to 100\%. However, the seasonal precipitation may increase more than 100\% in different seasons due to the impact of these indices. The results of this study can be used effectively in water resources management and especially in dam operation.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @article{NabipourDehghaniMosavietal., author = {Nabipour, Narjes and Dehghani, Majid and Mosavi, Amir and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin}, title = {Short-Term Hydrological Drought Forecasting Based on Different Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms Hybridized With Artificial Neural Networks}, series = {IEEE Access}, volume = {2020}, journal = {IEEE Access}, number = {volume 8}, publisher = {IEEE}, doi = {10.1109/ACCESS.2020.2964584}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200213-40796}, pages = {15210 -- 15222}, abstract = {Hydrological drought forecasting plays a substantial role in water resources management. Hydrological drought highly affects the water allocation and hydropower generation. In this research, short term hydrological drought forecasted based on the hybridized of novel nature-inspired optimization algorithms and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). For this purpose, the Standardized Hydrological Drought Index (SHDI) and the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) were calculated in one, three, and six aggregated months. Then, three states where proposed for SHDI forecasting, and 36 input-output combinations were extracted based on the cross-correlation analysis. In the next step, newly proposed optimization algorithms, including Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm (GOA), Salp Swarm algorithm (SSA), Biogeography-based optimization (BBO), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) hybridized with the ANN were utilized for SHDI forecasting and the results compared to the conventional ANN. Results indicated that the hybridized model outperformed compared to the conventional ANN. PSO performed better than the other optimization algorithms. The best models forecasted SHDI1 with R2 = 0.68 and RMSE = 0.58, SHDI3 with R 2 = 0.81 and RMSE = 0.45 and SHDI6 with R 2 = 0.82 and RMSE = 0.40.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} }
