Communication and collaboration within an entire system requires reliable and efficient data exchange between the subsystems. Middleware developed within the web evolution during the past years provides reliable and efficient data exchange for web applications, which can be adopted for solving the data exchange problems in distributed engineering applications. This paper presents a generic approach for reliable and efficient data exchange between engineering devices using existing middleware known from web applications. Different existing middleware is examined with respect to the suitability in engineering applications. In this paper, a suitable middleware is shown and a prototype implementation simulating distributed wind farm control is presented and validated using several performance measurements.

Experimental testing of nanomaterials is expensive, timeconsuming,challenging and sometimes unfeasible. Therefore,computational simulations have been employed as alternative method to predict macroscopic material properties. The behavior of polymeric nanocomposites (PNCs) are highly complex. The origins of macroscopic material properties reside in the properties and interactions taking place on finer scales. It is therefore essential to use multiscale modeling strategy to properly account for all large length and time scales associated with these material systems, which across many orders of magnitude. Numerous multiscale models of PNCs have been established, however, most of them connect only two scales. There are a few multiscale models for PNCs bridging four length scales (nano-, micro-, meso- and macro-scales). In addition, nanomaterials are stochastic in nature and the prediction of macroscopic mechanical properties are influenced by many factors such as fine-scale features. The predicted mechanical properties obtained by traditional approaches significantly deviate from the measured values in experiments due to neglecting uncertainty of material features. This discrepancy is indicated that the effective macroscopic properties of materials are highly sensitive to various sources of uncertainty, such as loading and boundary conditions and material characteristics, etc., while very few stochastic multiscale models for PNCs have been developed. Therefore, it is essential to construct PNC models within the framework of stochastic modeling and quantify the stochastic effect of the input parameters on the macroscopic mechanical properties of those materials. This study aims to develop computational models at four length scales (nano-, micro-, meso- and macro-scales) and hierarchical upscaling approaches bridging length scales from nano- to macro-scales. A framework for uncertainty quantification (UQ) applied to predict the mechanical properties of the PNCs in dependence of material features at different scales is studied. Sensitivity and uncertainty analysis are of great helps in quantifying the effect of input parameters, considering both main and interaction effects, on the mechanical properties of the PNCs. To achieve this major goal, the following tasks are carried out: At nano-scale, molecular dynamics (MD) were used to investigate deformation mechanism of glassy amorphous polyethylene (PE) in dependence of temperature and strain rate. Steered molecular dynamics (SMD)were also employed to investigate interfacial characteristic of the PNCs. At mico-scale, we developed an atomistic-based continuum model represented by a representative volume element (RVE) in which the SWNT’s properties and the SWNT/polymer interphase are modeled at nano-scale, the surrounding polymer matrix is modeled by solid elements. Then, a two-parameter model was employed at meso-scale. A hierarchical multiscale approach has been developed to obtain the structure-property relations at one length scale and transfer the effect to the higher length scales. In particular, we homogenized the RVE into an equivalent fiber. The equivalent fiber was then employed in a micromechanical analysis (i.e. Mori-Tanaka model) to predict the effective macroscopic properties of the PNC. Furthermore, an averaging homogenization process was also used to obtain the effective stiffness of the PCN at meso-scale. Stochastic modeling and uncertainty quantification consist of the following ingredients: - Simple random sampling, Latin hypercube sampling, Sobol’ quasirandom sequences, Iman and Conover’s method (inducing correlation in Latin hypercube sampling) are employed to generate independent and dependent sample data, respectively. - Surrogate models, such as polynomial regression, moving least squares (MLS), hybrid method combining polynomial regression and MLS, Kriging regression, and penalized spline regression, are employed as an approximation of a mechanical model. The advantage of the surrogate models is the high computational efficiency and robust as they can be constructed from a limited amount of available data. - Global sensitivity analysis (SA) methods, such as variance-based methods for models with independent and dependent input parameters, Fourier-based techniques for performing variance-based methods and partial derivatives, elementary effects in the context of local SA, are used to quantify the effects of input parameters and their interactions on the mechanical properties of the PNCs. A bootstrap technique is used to assess the robustness of the global SA methods with respect to their performance. In addition, the probability distribution of mechanical properties are determined by using the probability plot method. The upper and lower bounds of the predicted Young’s modulus according to 95 % prediction intervals were provided. The above-mentioned methods study on the behaviour of intact materials. Novel numerical methods such as a node-based smoothed extended finite element method (NS-XFEM) and an edge-based smoothed phantom node method (ES-Phantom node) were developed for fracture problems. These methods can be used to account for crack at macro-scale for future works. The predicted mechanical properties were validated and verified. They show good agreement with previous experimental and simulations results.

While such functions can very well describe problems of a particle with internal SU(2)-symmetries, higher order symmetries are beyond this theory. Although many modifications (such as Yang-Mills theory) were suggested over the years they could not address the principal problem, the need of a n-fold factorization of the d’Alembert operator. In this paper we present the basic tools of a fractional function theory in higher dimensions, for the transport operator (alpha = 1/2 ), by means of a fractional correspondence to the Weyl relations via fractional Riemann-Liouville derivatives. A Fischer decomposition, fractional Euler and Gamma operators, monogenic projection, and basic fractional homogeneous powers are constructed.

One of the crack edges is reinforced by a rigid patch plate on a finite interval adjacent to the crack tip. The crack edges are loaded with specified stresses. The body is stretched at infinity by specified stresses. External forces with a given principal vector and moment act on the patch plate. The problem reduces to a Riemann-Hilbert boundary-value matrix problem with a piecewise-constant coefficient for two complex potentials in the plane case and for one in the antiplane case. The complex potentials are found explicitly using a Gaussian hypergeometric function. The stress state of the body close to the ends of the patch plate, one of which is also simultaneously the crack tip, is investigated. Stress intensity factors near the singular points are determined.

Suitable variables need to be chosen to formulate the objective function, e.g. to minimize the total volume of the arch dam. Additionally a series of constraints are derived and a reasonable and convenient penalty function has been formed, which can easily enforce the characteristics of constraints and optimal design. For the optimization method, a Genetic Algorithm is adopted to perform a global search. Simultaneously, ANSYS is used to do the mechanical analysis under the coupling of thermal and hydraulic loads. One of the constraints of the newly designed dam is to fulfill requirements on the structural safety. Therefore, a reliability analysis is applied to offer a good decision supporting for matters concerning predictions of both safety and service life of the arch dam. By this, the key factors which would influence the stability and safety of arch dam significantly can be acquired, and supply a good way to take preventive measures to prolong ate the service life of an arch dam and enhances the safety of structure.

Towards a spatial dialectic in gated residential developments T1 - Diskurse der Identität auf dem Immobilienmarkt. Eine Untersuchung anhand von Gated Communities in Istanbul. N2 - This research projects deals with the discoursivity of spatial production. By looking at contemporary residential development in the city of Istanbul, I will examine the reciprocity of the material production of space on one hand, and social discourses on the other, in order to make a contribution to how physical space can be used as a source of research in urban studies. In real estate marketing social discourses are used as a source of reference for place branding or identity design. Branding concepts therefore relate to how social groups imagine their position or future position in society, imaginaries that are continuously influenced and changed by social dynamics within the city but also from the outside. How such urban identities are formed and it what way they relate to the urban environment is crucial to a wide spectrum of social and cultural science. The constitutive role urban space attains has been described and analysed in much detail. Such scrutiny however has yet to be applied to the visual and communicative forms of engagement, the build environment partakes in the formation and change of social discourses. N2 - Diese Dissertation setzt sich mit den Mechanismen diskursiver Stadtproduktion auseinander. Anhand einer Analyse aktueller Wohnbauprojekte in Istanbul wird untersucht, wie materielle Stadtproduktion auf der einen Seite und gesellschaftliche Diskurse auf der anderen ineinandergreifen, sich gegenseitig bedingen und beeinflussen. Gesellschaftsdiskurse tauchen im Stadtmarketing als Diskurse urbaner Identität auf. Sie stehen in engem Bezug zu einer idealisierten Vorstellung der eigenen gesellschaftlichen Position, werden aber auch durch Bewertungen von außen geprägt und verändert. Die Formation solcher Identitäten im Bereich des Stadtmarketing sowie ihre räumliche Umsetzung in Prozessen der Stadtproduktion ist von zentralem Interesse in der Stadtsoziologie. Die konstituierende Bedeutung des Raumes ist dabei weitestgehend erforscht worden, nicht jedoch die verändernde Wirkung, die städtischer Raum auf gesellschaftliche Diskurse hat - und umgekehrt. Dieser Komponente soll sich das vorliegende Forschungsvorhaben widmen.

This is not the case with liquid-filled acoustic resonators of non-trivial geometries, where several masses and stiffnesses of the structure and the fluid have to fit together. This creates a scenario of many competing and interacting resonances varying in relative strength and frequency when design parameters change. Hence, the resonator design involves a parameter-tuning problem with many local optima. As its solution evolutionary algorithms (EA) coupled to a forced-harmonic FE simulation are presented. A new hybrid EA is proposed and compared to two state-of-theart EAs based on selected test problems. The motivating background is the search for better resonators suitable for sonofusion experiments where extreme states of matter are sought in collapsing cavitation bubbles.

Beide Faktoren beeinflussen nicht nur den Frischbeton, sondern auch signifikant die Festbetoneigenschaften. Nachteilig wirken sich Fließmittel auf die Festigkeitsentwicklung aus, die z.T. sehr stark verzögert wird. Dies ist vor allem bei Bauteilen, die im Rahmen eines Vorfertigungsprozesses hergestellt werden, ein ökonomischer Nachteil. Die vorliegende Arbeit widmet sich den Ursachen für die Verzögerung der Portlandzementhydratation bei Verwendung von Fließmitteln. Um die komplexen Reaktionen, die während der Portlandzementhydratation auftreten, zu vereinfachen, betrachtet ein überwiegender Teil der Arbeit die Wechselwirkung Fließmittel-Tricalciumsilikat (Abk. Ca3SiO5 oder C3S, Hauptbestandteil von Portlandzementklinker). Die Untersuchungen werden in drei Hauptteilen durchgeführt, wobei Methoden wie u.a. isotherme Wärmeflusskalorimetrie, Elektrische Leitfähigkeit, Elektronenmikroskopie, ICP-OES, TOC als auch Analytische Ultrazentrifugation Anwendung finden. Basierend auf der Wechselwirkung von Kationen mit anionischen Ladungsträgern von Polymeren wird die Interaktion von Calcium mit Fließmitteln im ersten Teil der Arbeit untersucht. Dabei kommt es überwiegend zur Komplexierung von Calciumionen durch die funktionellen Gruppen der Plymere (Carboxyl- bzw. Sulfonguppen), die in zementären Umgebungen sowohl gelöst in der wässrigen Phase als auch als Bestandteil von Partikelgrenzflächen vorhanden sind. Neben diesen Effekten kann auch gezeigt werden, dass Fließmittel die Bildung von nanoskaligen Partikeln hervorrufen, die infolge der sterischen Wirkung von Fließmitteln dispergiert in der wässrigen Phase vorliegen (Clusterbildung). Analog zu neuesten Erkenntnissen aus dem Bereich der Biomineralisation ist daher davon auszugehen, dass diese Nanopartikel durch Agglomeration das Kristallwachtsum beeinflussen. Ausgehend von der Annahme, dass die Auflösungs- und/ oder Fällungskinetik durch die Wirkung von Fließmitteln behindert und damit für den Verzögerungseffekt der Fließmittel während der komplexen Hydratationsreaktion verantwortlich seien können, werden die zugrundeliegenden Vorgänge im zweiten Abschnitt getrennt voneinander untersucht. Es wird anhand von Lösungsuntersuchungen an C-S-H Phasen und Portlandit herausgestellt, dass die Komplexierung von gelösten Calciumionen durch funktionelle Gruppen der Polymere die Löslichkeit von Portlandit erhöht. Im Gegensatz führt die Komplexierung von Calciumionen in der wässrigen Phase zu einer Verringerung der Calciumionenkonzentration in der wässrigen Phase. Diese Effekte werden auf die unterschiedlich starke Adsorptionsneigung der Polymere an C-S-H-Phasen und Portlandit zurückgeführt. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass die Adsorption aufgrund der größeren spezifischen Oberfläche stärker an den C-S-H-Phasen als am Portlandit auftritt. Demnach stellt sich dar, dass die Polymere erst nachdem die funktionellen Gruppen Calciumionen aus der wässrigen Phase komplexiert haben an den C-S-H-Phasen adsorbieren. Weiterhin kann gezeigt werden, dass die freie C3S Auflösungsrate in Anwesenheit von Fließmitteln keinen direkten Zusammenhang zur Verzögerung erkennen lässt. Teilweise kommt es zu einer in Bezug zur Kontrollprobe ohne Fließmittel erhöhten sowie auch verringerten Auflösungsrate. Wird das Komplexierungsvemögen der Fließmittel berücksichtigt, so kann durchaus eine verlangsamte freie Auflösungsrate ermittelt werden. Doch auch Calcit zeigt einen verzögernden Einfluss auf die freie C3S Auflösung, obwohl es den Gesamtprozess der Hydratation signifikant beschleunigt. Somit kann die behinderte Auflösung als mögliche Ursache für die verzögernde Wirkung während der Zementhydratation weder bestätigt noch widerlegt werden. Dieser Punkt sollte in zukünftigen Arbeiten weiter untersucht werden. Im letzten Schritt dieses Untersuchungsabschnitts wird die reine Kristallisation von C-S-H-Phasen und Portlandit untersucht. Es stellt sich heraus, dass Fließmittel insbesondere durch die Wirkung der Komplexierung von Ionen in der wässrigen Phase sowohl die Induktionszeit verlängern als auch die Kristallwachstumsrate verändern. Dies allein kann aber nicht die komplette Verzögerungswirkung erklären. Ein wichtiger Verzögerungsfaktor ist die Adsorption der Polymere an Kristalloberflächen als auch eine fließmittelbedingte Dispergierung von nanoskaligen Einzelpartikeln, die deren Agglomeration zu Kristallen behindert. Im letzten Hauptuntersuchungsabschnitt werden die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse auf die während der Zement- und Tricalciumsilikathydratation parallel ablaufenden Reaktionen analysiert. Dabei wird insbesondere die ionische Zusammensetzung der wässrigen Phase von C3S Pasten und Suspensionen untersucht, um Hinweise für eine kinetische Hemmung der Hydratationsreaktion zu identifizieren. Zusammenfassend wird festgestellt, dass die Ursachen der verzögernden Wirkung von Fließmitteln auf die Hydratation von C3S auf die starke Verzögerung der Kristallisation von Hydratphasen zurückzuführen ist. Dabei kommt den zwei Faktoren Komplexierung von Calciumionen an Oberflächen und Stabilisierung von nanoskaligen Partikeln eine zentrale Bedeutung zu. Diese Effekte können durch die Wirkung als Templat als auch durch Erhöhung der Löslichkeit infolge Komplexierung freier/gelöster Ionen teilkompensiert werden. Dass die Auflösungsreaktion durch die Anwesenheit von Fließmitteln behindert wird, kann nur indirekt anhand der Entwicklung von Ionenkonzentrationen festgestellt werden. Ob dieser Vorgang die Ursache oder die Folge des Lösungs-Fällungs-Mechanismus der Hydratation ist und damit die verzögernde Wirkung durch behinderte Auflösung des Edukts hervorgerufen wird, bleibt Gegenstand weiterer Untersuchungen. Im Rahmen der Arbeit kann auch gezeigt werden, dass Fließmittel chemisch als Inhibitoren wirken indem sie den Frequenzfaktor verringern. Darüber hinaus wird erstmalig eine Methode entwickelt, die die Bestimmung der Ionenkonzentration in Pasten in-situ erlaubt. Mit deren Hilfe wird dargestellt, dass die Entwicklung der Ionenkonzentration als auch die allgemein verwendete Wärmefreisetzungsrate (Kalorimetrie) miteinander korrespondiert. Darüber hinaus erlaubt die entwickelte Methode die weitere Differenzierung der Accelerationsperiode in drei Stadien. Die Kristallisation von C-S-H-Phasen und Portlandit ist für den Beginn der Haupthydratationsperiode entscheidend. N2 - Superplasticizers are utilized both to improve the fluidity during the placement and to reduce the water content of concretes. Both effects have also an impact on the properties of the hardened concrete. As a side effect the presence of superplasticizers affects the strength development of concretes that is strongly retarded. This may lead to an ecomomical drawback of the concrete manufacturing. The present work is aimed at gaining insights on the causes of the retarding effect of superplasticizers on the hydration of Portland cement. In order to simplify the complex interactions occurring during the hydration of Portland cement the majority of the work focuses on the interaction of superplasticizer and tricalcium silicate (Ca3SiO5 or C3S, the main compound of Portland cement clinker). The tests are performed in three main parts accompanied by methods as for example isothermal conduction calorimetry, electrical conductivity, Electron Microscopy, ICP-OES, TOC, as well as Analytical Ultracentrifugation. In the first main part and based on the interaction of cations and anionic charges of polymers, the interactions between calcium ions and superplasticizers are investigated. As a main effect calcium ions are complexed by the functional groups of the polymers (carboxy, sulfonic). Calcium ions may be both dissolved in the aqueous phase and a constitute of particle interfaces. Besides these effects it is furthermore shown that superplasticizers induce the formation of nanoscaled particles which are dispersed in the aqueous phase (cluster formation). Analogous to recent findings in the field of biomineralization, it is reasonable to assume that these nanoparticles influence the crystal growth by their assembly process. Based on the assumption that superplasticizers hinder either or both dissolution and precipitation and by that retard the cement hydration, the impact on separate reactions is investigated. On experiments that address the solubility of C-S-H phases and portlandite, it is shown that complexation of calcium ions in the aqueous phase by functional groups of polymers increases the solubility of portlandite. Contrary, in case of C-S-H solubility the complexation of calcium ions in solution leads to decrease of the calcium ion concentration in the aqueous phase. These effects are explained by differences in adsorption of polymers on C-S-H phases and portlandite. It is proposed that adsorption is stronger on C-S-H phases compared to portlandite due to the increased specific surface area of C-S-H phases. Following that, it is claimed that before polymers are able to adsorb on C-S-H phases the functional groups must be screened by calcium ions in the aqueous phase. It is further shown that data regarding the impact of superplasticizers on the unconstrained dissolution rate of C3S does not provide a clear relation to the overall retarding effect occurring during the hydration of C3S. Both increased and decreased dissolution rate with respect to the reference sample are detected. If the complexation capability of the superplasticizers is considered then also a reduced dissolution rate of C3S is determined. Despite the fact that the global hydration process is accelerated, the addition of calcite leads to a slower dissolution rate. Thus, a hindered unconstrained dissolution of C3S as possibly cause for the retarding effect still remains open for discussion. In the last section of this part, the pure crystallization of hydrate phases (C-S-H phases, portlandite) is fathomed. Results clearly show that superplasticizers prolong the induction time and modify the rate of crystal growth during pure crystallization in particular due to the complexation of ions in solution. But this effect is insufficient to account for the overall retarding effect. Further important factors are the blocking of crystal growth faces by adsorbed polymers and the dispersion of nanoscaled particles which hinders their agglomeration in order to build up crystals. In the last main part of the work, the previously gathered results are utilized in order to investigate hydration kinetics. During hydration, dissolution and precipitation occur in parallel. Thereby, special attention is laid on the ion composition of the aqueous phase of C3S pastes and suspensions in order to determine the rate limiting step. All in all it is concluded that the retarding effect of superplasticizers on the hydration of tricalcium silicate is based on the retardation of crystallization of hydrate phases (C-S-H phases and portlandite). Thereby, the two effects complexation of calcium ions on surfaces and stabilization of nanoscaled particles are of major importance. These mechanisms may partly be compensated by template performance and increase in solubility by complexation of ions in solution. The decreased dissolution rate of C3S by the presence of superplasticizers during the in parallel occuring hydration process can only be assessed indirectly by means of the development of the ion concentrations in the aqueous phase (reaction path). Whether this observation is the cause or the consequence within the dissolution-precipitation process and therefore accounts for the retarding effect remains a topic for further investigations. Besides these results it is shown that superplasticizers can be associated chemically with inhibitors because they reduce the frequency factor to end the induction period. Because the activation energy is widely unaffected it is shown that the basic reaction mechanism sustain. Furthermore, a method was developed which permits for the first time the determination of ion concentrations in the aqueous phase of C3S pastes in-situ. It is shown that during the C3S hydration the ion concentration in the aqueous phase is developed correspondingly to the heat release rate (calorimetry). The method permits the differentiation of the acceleration period in three stages. It is emphasized that crystallization of the product phases of C3S hydration, namely C-S-H phases and portlandite, are responsible for the end of the induction period.

State-of-the-art sensor nodes, collecting structural and environmental data from civil infrastructure systems, are capable of processing and analyzing the data sets directly on-board the nodes. Structural health monitoring (SHM) based on sensor nodes that possess so called “on-chip intelligence” is, in this study, referred to as “intelligent SHM”, and the infrastructure system being equipped with an intelligent SHM system is referred to as “intelligent infrastructure”. Although intelligent SHM will continue to grow, it is not possible, on a well-defined formalism, to digitally represent information about sensors, about the overall SHM system, and about the monitoring strategies being implemented (“monitoring-related information”). Based on a review of available SHM regulations and guidelines as well as existing sensor models and sensor modeling languages, this conceptual paper investigates how to digitally represent monitoring-related information in a semantic model. With the Industry Foundation Classes, there exists an open standard for the digital representation of building information; however, it is not possible to represent monitoring-related information using the IFC object model. This paper proposes a conceptual approach for extending the current IFC object model in order to include monitoring-related information. Taking civil infrastructure systems as an illustrative example, it becomes possible to adequately represent, process, and exchange monitoring-related information throughout the whole life cycle of civil infrastructure systems, which is referred to as monitoring information modeling (MIM). However, since this paper is conceptual, additional research efforts are required to further investigate, implement, and validate the proposed concepts and methods.

Die gezeigten Lösungsansätze bewegen sich dabei im Spannungsfeld von Architektur und Ingenieurbau, denn die gefalteten Bauteile sind nicht nur äußerst tragfähig sondern besitzen auch eine ästhetische Form. Die entwickelten Verfahren und Konstruktionen werden auf einem hohen architektonischen Niveau präsentiert und mit einfachen ingenieurtechnischen Methoden verifiziert. Zur Lösungsfindung werden geometrische Verfahren ebenso angewendet wie konstruktive Faustformeln und Recherchen aus Architektur und Forschung. Der Fokus der Arbeit liegt auf der Untersuchung von Faltungen in Wabenplatten. Während der Auseinandersetzung mit der Thematik erschienen jedoch viele weitere Aspekte als sehr interessant und bearbeitungswürdig. Als theoretische Grundlage dieser Arbeit werden deshalb die geschichtliche Entwicklung und die gesellschaftliche Bedeutung von Papier und Papierwerkstoffen analysiert und deren Produktionsprozesse beleuchtet. Diese Vorgehensweise ermöglicht eine Einordnung des Potentials und der Bedeutung des Werkstoffs Papier. Der Kontext der Arbeit wird dadurch gestärkt und führt zu interessanten zukünftigen Forschungsansätzen. Intensive Untersuchungen widmen sich der geometrischen Bestimmung von Faltungen in Wabenplatten aus Papierwerkstoffen sowie deren Manifestation als konstruktive Bauteile. Auch die statischen Eigenschaften der Elemente und ihr Konstruktionspotential werden erforscht und aufbereitet. Wichtige Impulse aus Forschung und Technik fließen in die Recherche der Arbeit ein und erlauben die Verortung der Ergebnisse im architektonischen Kontext. Versuchsreihen und Materialstudien an Prototypen belegen die Ergebnisse virtueller und rechnerischer Studien. Konzepte zur parametrischen Berechnung und Visualisierung der Forschungsergebnisse werden präsentiert und zeigen zukunftsfähige Planungshilfen für die Industrie auf. Etliche Testreihen zu unterschiedlichsten Abdichtungskonzepten führen zur Realisierung eines sehenswerten Experimentalbaus. Er erlaubt die dauerhafte Untersuchung der entwickelten Bauteile unter realistischen Bedingungen und bestätigt deren Leistungsfähigkeit. Dadurch wird nicht nur ein dauerhaftes Monitoring und eine Evaluierung der Leistungsdaten möglich sondern es wird auch der sichtbare Beweis erbracht, dass mit Papierwerkstoffen effiziente und hochwertige Architekturen zu realisieren sind, welche das enorme gestalterische Potential von gefalteten Wabenplatten ausnutzen.

Ein Ziel der Forschungsarbeit ist die Entwicklung von Modellen zur Allokation und Steuerung von Flächenressourcen in Hochschulen. Ausgehend von Darstellungen und Erfahrungen für die Flächensteuerung aus Unternehmen, anderen Bereichen der öffentlichen Verwaltung und Forschungseinrichtungen wurden mögliche Steuerungsverfahren für Hochschulen untersucht. Es wurde ein Steuerungsmodell für Hochschulen entwickelt, das auf die hochschulinternen und die extern wirksamen Rahmenbedingungen reagiert. Die hochschulinterne Flächenallokation wird zum einen maßgeblich von externen Rahmen-bedingungen und zum zweiten von internen Prozessen, Abläufen und Strukturen beeinflusst. Die Kenntnis dieser Bedingungen wird als Voraussetzung für die Benennung von Erfolgsfak-toren für die Implementation neuer Steuerungsmodelle angenommen. Analysiert wurden daher die liegenschaftspolitischen und die organisatorischen Rahmenbedingungen sowie die steuerungsrelevanten Eigenschaften der Flächen selber. N2 - A main goal of this research project is to develop models for space allocation and management in universities. Based on the experiences of space management in other areas of public administration and research institutions, possible methods for space management in higher education have been analyzed. A management model has been developed which reacts to universities internal and external parameters. Space allocation in higher education is depending on external conditions as well as on internal processes and structures. Knowing those parameters has been assumed to build the foundation to appoint the factors of success for the implementation of new space management models. Therefore parameters of property policy, organization and relevant characteristics of management of Space have been analyzed.

Sie betrachtet ein um 1900 aufkommendes Ausstellungsphänomen in seinen ersten Dekaden; in einer Zeit, in der das Wohnen problematisiert wurde. Der Praxis des Wohnens ist Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts seine Selbstverständlichkeit abgesprochen worden. Die Bau-Ausstellung wird als ein Symptom dieses Verlusts interpretiert und zugleich als Versuch, ihm entgegenzuwirken. Statt sie innerdisziplinär als eine architekturgeschichtliche Episode der Moderne rein positivistisch zu beschreiben, legt die vorliegende Arbeit im Typus der Bau-Ausstellung eine weit reichende Problematik frei, die kulturphilosophische ebenso wie medientheoretische Dimensionen hat: Inwieweit lässt sich das Wohnen überhaupt ausstellen? Wie kann man eine alltägliche Praxis, die kaum eine Definition erlaubt, zeigen? Den Umgang mit dieser Aporie untersucht die Arbeit.

But a haul through history, reviewing its pages and analyzing it, inherently brings up old and new question, like: Is it possible to alter negatively the image of historic buildings and monuments through inadequate lighting to the degree of distorting the perception that people have of the work? and if so, what are the causes that generate it? Do the light designers take into consideration criteria to protect not only historic buildings and monuments, but also the environment? What are the consequences that may generate the inadequate lighting of urban heritage to the environment? What are the factors to consider for a proper illumination of urban heritage? The answers to these questions will help lay the foundation for proper illumination of the urban heritage, avoiding at the maximum the light pollution and the effects that it generates, seeking a balance and harmonious reconciliation between the technology, urban heritage and environment, taking as a framework and the case study the urban heritage of a city from the colonial era in southern Mexico, with pre-Hispanic roots and where today you can still see through its streets and buildings an atmosphere of mysticism reflection of their folklore and traditions, this city is known as Chiapa de Corzo, Chiapas.

In this paper we analyze the stability and accuracy of the metric trifocal tensor for calibrated cameras. Since a minimal parameterization of the metric trifocal tensor is challenging, the additional constraints of the interior orientation are applied to the well-known projective 6-point and 7-point algorithms for three images. The experimental results show that the linear 7-point algorithm fails for some noise-free degenerated cases, whereas the minimal 6-point algorithm seems to be competitive even with realistic noise.

The Product Explorer is a significantly improved interactive Parallel Coordinates display for facilitating the product selection process in cases where many attributes and numerous alternatives have to be considered. A novel visual representation for categorical and ordered data with only few occurring values, the so-called extended areas, in combination with cubic curves for connecting the parallel axes, are crucial for providing an effective overview of the entire dataset and to facilitate the tracing of individual products. The visual query interface supports users in quickly narrowing down the product search to a small subset or even a single product. The scalability of the approach towards a large number of attributes and products is enhanced by the possibility of setting some constraints on final attributes and, therefore, reducing the number of considered attributes and data items. Furthermore, an attribute repository allows users to focus on the most important attributes at first and to bring in additional criteria for product selection later in the decision process. A user study confirmed that the Product Explorer is indeed an excellent tool for its intended purpose for casual users. The Wordgraph is a layered graph visualization for the interactive exploration of search results for complex keywords-in-context queries. The system relies on the Netspeak web service and is designed to support non-native speakers in finding customary phrases. Uncertainties about the commonness of phrases are expressed with the help of wildcard-based queries. The visualization presents the alternatives for the wildcards in a multi-column layout: one column per wildcard with the other query fragments in between. The Wordgraph visualization displays the sorted results for all wildcards at once by appropriately arranging the words of each column. A user study confirmed that this is a significant advantage over simple textual result lists. Furthermore, visual interfaces to filter, navigate, and expand the graph allow interactive refinement and expansion of wildcard-containing queries. Furthermore, this thesis presents an advanced visual analysis tool for assessing and presenting alleged cases of plagiarism and provides a three-level approach for exploring the so-called finding spots in their context. The overview shows the relationship of the entire suspicious document to the set of source documents. An intermediate glyph-based view reveals the structural and textual differences and similarities of a set of finding spots and their corresponding source text fragments. Eventually, the actual fragments of the finding spot can be shown in a side-by-side view with a novel structured wrapping of both the source, as well as the suspicious text. The three different levels of detail are tied together by versatile navigation and selection operations. Reviews with plagiarism experts confirm that this tool can effectively support their workflow and provides a significant improvement over existing static visualizations for assessing and presenting plagiarism cases. The three main contributions of this research have a lot in common aside from being carefully designed and scientifically grounded solutions to real-world decision problems. The first two visualizations facilitate the decision for a single possibility out of many alternatives, whereas the latter ones deal with text at varying levels of detail. All visual representations are clearly structured based on horizontal and vertical layers contained in a single view and they all employ edges for depicting the most important relationships between attributes, words, or different levels of detail. A detailed analysis considering the context of the established decision-making literature reveals that important steps of common decision models are well-supported by the three visualization systems presented in this thesis.

Therefore, most theories in this field, at least implicitly, employ a hierarchical and often dichotomic preconception of the two poles of media-human relations, by analysing the operationalities and ontologies of the human and the media independently from one another. This article deviates from this line of thought by advocating an expanded, symmetrical and relational understanding of the terms media and human, taking them as always already intermingled facets of a broader dynamic configuration. Starting from a consideration of the historically powerful, yet overlooked media of the so-called habitat diorama, the heuristic concept of “anthropomediality” is to be developed. Eventually, this relational approach may open up a new, interesting field for interrogation of (media-)anthropological analysis in general.

It critically discusses the contradictions of the production of residences in Brazil made by an emerging so-cial group, lately called the Brazilian new middle class. For the last ten years, a number of government policies have provoked a general improvement of the purchasing power of the poor. Between those who completely depend on the government to survive and the upper middle class, there is a wide (about 100 million people) and economically stable lower middle group, which has found its own ways of dealing with its demand for housing. The conventional models of planning, building and buying are not suitable for their technical, financial and personal needs. Therefore, they are con-currently planners, constructors and residents, building and renovating their own properties themselves, but still with very limited education and technical knowledge and restricted access to good building materials and constructive ele-ments, formal technicians, architects or engineers. On the one hand, the result is an informal and more or less autono-mous self-production, with all sorts of technical problems and very interesting and creative spatial solutions to every-day domestic situations. On the other hand, the repercussions for urban space are questionable: although basic infrastructure conditions have improved, building densities are high and green areas are few. Lower middle class neigh-bourhoods present a restricted collective everyday life. They look like storage spaces for manpower; people who live to work in order to be able to consume—and build—what they could not before. One question is, to what extent the lat-est economic rise of Brazil has really resulted in social development for lower middle income families in the private sphere regarding their residences, and in the collective sphere, regarding the neighbourhoods they inhabit and the ur-ban space in general.

A sampling based back analysis approach is proposed comprising both the model parameter identification and the assessment of the reliability of identified model parameters. The results obtained in the context of buffer elements indicate that sensitive parameter estimates generally obey the normal distribution. According to the sensitivity of the parameters and the probability distribution of the samples we can provide confidence intervals for the estimated parameters and thus allow a qualitative estimation on the identified parameters which are in future work used as inputs for prognosis computations of buffer elements. These elements play e.g. an important role in the design of nuclear waste repositories.

History and Historiography N2 - Beiträge zum Symposium „Urban design and dictatorship in the 20th century: Italy, Portugal, the Soviet Union, Spain and Germany. History and Historiography“. Weimar, 21.-22. November 2013 N2 - For decades in Germany, historical research on dictatorial urban design in the first half of the 20th century focused on the National Socialist period. Studies on the urban design practices of other dictatorships remained an exception. This has changed. Meanwhile, the urban production practices of the Mussolini, Stalin, Salazar, Hitler and Franco dictatorships have become the subject of comprehensive research projects. Recently, a research group that studies dictatorial urban design in 20th century Europe has emerged at the Bauhaus-Institut für Geschichte und Theorie der Architektur und der Planung. The group is already able to refer to various research results. Part of the research group’s self-conception is the assumption that the urban design practices of the named dictatorships can only be properly understood from a European perspective. The dictatorships influenced one another substantially. Furthermore, the specificities of the practices of each dictatorship can only be discerned if one can compare them to those of the other dictatorships. This approach requires strict adherence to the research methods of planning history and urban design theory. Meanwhile, these methods must be opened to include those of general historical studies. With this symposium, the research group aims to further qualify this European perspective. The aim is to pursue an inventory of the various national historiographies on the topic of “urban design and dictatorship”. This inventory should offer an overview on the general national level of historical research on urban design as well as on the level of particular urban design projects, persons or topics. The symposium took place in Weimar, November 21-22, 2013. It was organized by Harald Bodenschatz, Piero Sassi and Max Welch Guerra and funded by the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service).

Today, construction market demands increasing skill levels. Many jobs that were once considered to be undertaken by low or un-skilled labor, now demand some kind of formal skills. The jobs that require low skilled labor are continually decreasing due to technological advancement and globalization. Jobs that previously required little or no training now require skilful people to perform the tasks appropriately. The study aims at ameliorating employability of less skilled manpower by finding ways to instruct them for performing constructions tasks. A review of exiting task instruction methodologies in construction and the underlying gaps within them warrants an appropriate way to train and instruct low skilled workers for the tasks in construction. The idea is to ensure the required quality of construction with technological and didactic aids seeming particularly purposeful to prepare potential workers for the tasks in construction without exposing them to existing communication barriers. A BIM based technology is considered promising along with the integration of visual directives/animations to elaborate the construction tasks scheduled to be carried on site.

Band 2 N2 - The aim of this study was to investigate the optimization of the strength development of quaternary cements with 50 % clinker by a variation of the particle size distribution of the components GGBFS, fly ash and limestone powder. By balancing the overall PSD of the cement by using unprocessed fly ash and coarse limestone powder in combination with a very fine GGBFS, the water demand of the resulting quaternary cements remained unaltered, while the compressive strength of the cements was increased significantly after 7d, 28 and 56d. As can be expected, the quaternary cement with 30 wt.% of the fine slag exhibited a stronger strength increase (about 18 % after 28 d) than the cements with only 20 wt.% slag (about 10% after 28d).

Initially, this method was used in the shipbuilding industry. Later, it was adapted in the homogeneous calculations of the bar structures. In this method, rigid mass discs serve as an element model. In the flat layout, three generalized coordinates (two translational and one rotational) correspond to each disc. These discs are connected by elastic ties. The genuine idea is to take into account a discrete crack in the Rigid Finite Element Method. It consists in the suitable reduction of the rigidity in rotational ties located in the spots, where cracks occurred. The susceptibility of this tie results from the flexural deformability of the element and the occurrence of the crack. As part of the numerical analyses, the influence of cracks on the total deflection of beams was determined. Furthermore, the results of the calculations were compared to the results of the experiment. Overestimations of the calculated deflections against the measured deflections were found. The article specifies the size of the overestimation and describes its causes.

Band 2 N2 - Gemäß dem Regelwerk für Betonstraßen muss für zweischichtige Betonfahrbahndecken derselbe Zement in Ober- und Unterbeton verwendet werden. Weiterhin ist die Anrechnung von Flugasche auf den w/z-Wert nicht gestattet. Durch eine flexiblere Handhabung der Bindemittel könnten sich Vorteile für die Betonbauweise ergeben. So könnte z.B. der stärker durch Frost beanspruchte Oberbeton mit CEM I hergestellt werden, während Zemente mit höheren Hüttensandgehalten nur im Unterbeton angewendet werden. Im Unterbeton könnten dann Gesteinskörnungen eingesetzt werden, die in einer herkömmlichen CEM I-Rezeptur als AKR-kritisch eingestuft würden. Anhand von AKR-Performance-Prüfungen konnte die hohe Wirksamkeit hüttensandhaltiger Zemente sowie auch von Flugasche auf die AKR-Verminderung aufgezeigt werden. Schon mit einem CEM II/B-S wurden AKR-kritische Rezepturen in den unkritischen Bereich verschoben. Der Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand der Betone wurde bei hohen Gehalten an Hüttensand bzw. Hüttensand + Flugasche verringert, bewegte sich aber in jedem Fall noch im günstigen Bereich. Um eine Beeinträchtigung der baupraktischen Umsetzbarkeit zu vermeiden, sollte sich die Festigkeitsentwicklung von Ober- und Unterbeton im jungen Alter nicht zu stark unterscheiden. Modellberechnungen zur Festlegung einer Mindestfestigkeit für die frühe Belastung sind derzeit noch in Bearbeitung.

By performing equilibrium molecular dynamics (EMD) simulations, we investigated the influence of the average grain size on the thermal conductivity of polycrystalline h-BN films at various temperatures. Using the EMD results, we constructed finite element models of polycrystalline h-BN sheets to probe the thermal conductivity of samples with larger grain sizes. Our multiscale investigations not only provide a general viewpoint regarding the heat conduction in h-BN films but also propose that polycrystalline h-BN sheets present high thermal conductivity comparable to monocrystalline sheets.

Due to the professional background of the authors, this benchmarking strategy is illustrated on a selection of search methods in regard to expected characteristics of geotechnical parameter back calculation problems. Starting from brief introduction into the approach employed, a strategy for optimization algorithm benchmarking is introduced. The benchmarking utilizes statistical tests carried out on well-known test functions superposed with perturbations, both chosen to mimic objective function topologies found for geotechnical objective function topologies. Here, the moved axis parallel hyper-ellipsoid test function and the generalized Ackley test function in conjunction with an adjustable quantity of objective function topology roughness and fraction of failing forward calculations is analyzed. In total, results for 5 optimization algorithms are presented, compared and discussed.

ED - Kornadt, Oliver T1 - Quantifizierung der langfristigen Entwicklung des Nutzungsgrades von Anlagen und Geräten im Wohnungssektor in Deutschland und Bestimmung zukünftiger Energieeinsparpotenziale im Hinblick auf die Klimaschutzziele der Bundesregierung T2 - Bauphysiktage Kaiserslautern 2015, Kaiserslautern, 21-22 Oktober 2015 N2 - Etwa ein Viertel des gesamten Endenergieverbrauchs (26%) in Deutschland entfällt auf den Wohnungssektor, wodurch dieser Sektor einen erheblichen Anteil am möglichen Einsparpotenzial an Energie hat. Im Hinblick auf das Klimaschutzziel der Europäischen Union, die Energieeffizienz im Vergleich zu 1990 um 20% zu erhöhen, stellt sich daher die Frage, welche Einsparpotenziale es im Wohnungssektor tatsächlich gibt und wie diese quantifiziert werden können. In dieser Arbeit wird der Einfluss der Parameter, die den Endenergieverbrauch beeinflussen, mit Hilfe einer Sensitivitätsanalyse bestimmt. Die Ergebnisse der Sensitivitätsanalyse zeigen, dass die einflussreichsten Parameter auf den Endenergieverbrauch der Innentemperaturbedarf, die Länge der Heizperiode, die Außentemperatur (Gradtagzahl) und die Anzahl der Wohnungen sind. Dies sind Variablen, die nicht durch Verordnungen reguliert werden können. Der einzige Parameter, der regulierbar ist und einen bedeutenden Einfluss auf den Endenergieverbrauch hat, ist der Nutzungsgrad der Anlagen/Geräte für Raumwärme, Warmwasser und Kochen (sowie zu einem geringen Teil der Wirkungsgrad der eingesetzten Beleuchtung). Zur Quantifizierung des Energieeinsparpotentials im deutschen Wohnungssektor bezüglich des Nutzungsgrades wurden in dieser Arbeit Daten zur Bestimmung der langfristigen Entwicklung (Zeitraum 1990-2010) des Nutzungsgrades von Anlagen und Geräten analysiert. Mit verschiedenen Angaben aus der Literatur und mit Hilfe von Sättigungskurven wurde die Entwicklung der Nutzugsgrade der Anlagen/Geräte entsprechend der Energiequellen zwischen 1990 und 2010 ermittelt. Die erhaltenden Sättigungskurven ermöglichen die Bestimmung der Entwicklung des Nutzenergieverbrauchs im deutschen Wohnungssektor. Hierbei wurde festgestellt, dass die Differenz zwischen Nutzenergieverbrauch und Endenergieverbrauch einen Rückgang von 12 % im betrachtenden Zeitraum verzeichnete und dass das Energieeinsparpotenzial in Abhängigkeit von der Energiequelle beträchtlich variieren kann (um derzeit mehr als 35%-Punkte). Im Hinblick auf das oben genannte Klimaschutzziel werden in dieser Arbeit verschiedene Entwicklungsszenarien auf Basis des Nutzungsgrades der Anlagen und der Energiequellen analysiert. Hierbei wird deutlich, dass das theoretische Energieeinsparpotenzial im deutschen Wohnungssektor bezüglich des durchschnittlichen Nutzungsgrades nur zwischen 4 und 15 % liegt. Dies bedeutet, dass eine deutliche Reduktion des Endenergiebedarfs im Wohnungssektor nur stattfinden kann, wenn andere Energieeinsparmaßnahmen betrachtet werden. Basierend auf den Ergebnissen der Sensitivitätsanalyse werden hierzu Empfehlungen gegeben.

The sharp growth of this network in the last years instigates the use of methods of analysis and the evaluation of their quality of service in terms of the traffic performance, typically performed through internationally accepted methodologies, namely that presented in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). Lately, the use of microscopic traffic simulation models has been increasingly widespread. These models simulate the individual movement of the vehicles, allowing to perform traffic analysis. The main target of this study was to verify the possibility of using microsimulation as an auxiliary tool in the adaptation of the methodology by HCM 2000 to Portugal. For this purpose, were used the microscopic simulators AIMSUN and VISSIM for the simulation of the traffic circulation in the A5 Portuguese freeway. The results allowed the analysis of the influence of the main geometric and traffic factors involved in the methodology by HCM 2000. In conclusion, the study presents the main advantages and limitations of the microsimulators AIMSUN and VISSIM in modelling the traffic circulation in Portuguese freeways. The main limitation is that these microsimulators are not able to simulate explicitly some of the factors considered in the HCM 2000 methodology, which invalidates their direct use as a tool in the quantification of those effects and, consequently, makes the direct adaptation of this methodology to Portugal impracticable.

The fact that food is, for the most part, produced in the countryside and then transported to the city has a significant influence on this very unbalanced relationship today. The main goal was to show that it is necessary to bring agriculture, urban gardening, the breeding of domestic farm animals, and beekeeping back to the city, which would have a positive affect on both the city and the countryside. All of this is already taking place at the local level, within the neighbourhoods of our cities and through the work of self-organised activities and initiatives, which have been taken up by city residents themselves. One example of this is the community garden, a new model of gardening which offers fertile ground for growing vegetables and to test various forms of co-existence, different ways of designing spaces, the creation of alternative values, and a positive vision for the future of city residents. In 2010, I co-created the community urban garden Beyond a Construction Site, which is the central part of this artistic research. Throughout the entire four-year process of creating this community garden, theory and artistic practice were intertwined, and informed one another. This community garden is an example of a self-organised and self-managed community space located in a residential neighbourhood in the centre of the city of Ljubljana, and as such is a typical example of urbanism from the bottom up. I placed the creation and development of our community garden in a dialogue with the formal way of arranging urban gardening in Ljubljana, a top-down approach, which the city has been carrying out intensively since 2007. I compared the solutions being proposed by the city of Ljubljana for organising urban gardening with the way it is organised in other European cities, the UK, and the USA. I also researched the recent rapid growth of self-organised initiatives which are focused on the local production of food and seek to find more economic and ecologically friendly models to visibly influence the future of cities and the countryside. Here, community gardens play an important role, as in addition to the production of food they are also spaces for the criticism of existing urban policies, a self-organised revitalisation of neglected spaces, and places of resilience, because they differ from that which real estate agencies, large financial companies, and city authorities desire them to be. The community garden Beyond a Construction Site has become living proof that, through a group action, the residents of a neighbourhood can influence existing city policies and the future of both their own neighbourhood and that of the entire city. The initiators of this garden are artists and architects, and we began this community garden in the context of an art festival, which also shows that art can influence the processes of everyday life and help to create much needed spaces within cities to serve various purposes. Our community garden has also shown itself to be an important platform for the exchange of knowledge on organic gardening, ecology in everyday life, and critical architecture, as well as serving to connect related initiatives. Together with these other initiatives we are stronger, and are influencing structural changes within city politics, thereby also co-creating the future of Ljubljana. This community garden is helping us to redefine our relationship with the city and re-awaken the desires and actions of residents connected with realising their fundamental right, the right to the city. My other artworks, which I am presenting in the context of this doctoral thesis, show an optimistic vision for the future of cities. The video animations Back to the City (2011) and The Right Balance (2013), as well as the accompanying collages, visualise a city of the future where urban and rural practices live together side-by-side. This vision is being realised by city residents themselves, with their active participation in the creation of community gardens, growing their own vegetables, urban beekeeping, and by having egg-laying hens in their gardens. My desire was also to present the theoretical concept and scientific research to a non-academic public, and to people without specialised training. Using the method of storytelling I included knowledge from the research into the video animations and collages. In this way my artistic work, with an intentional playfulness, challenges today’s faith in science and theoretical concepts, as well as directing attention to working with common sense, with one’s own hands, and with the earth. This can contribute to a change in the still dominant anthropocentric view of nature, which is an urgently needed change for our future.

This work presents a study on numerical modelling of the behaviour of steel structural elements in case of fire with slender cross-sections. To accurately carry out these analyses it is necessary to take into account those local instability modes, which normally is only possible with shell finite elements. However, aiming at the development of more expeditious methods, particularly important for analysing complete structures in case of fire, recent studies have proposed the use of beam finite elements considering the presence of local buckling through the implementation of a new effective steel constitutive law. The objective of this work is to develop a study to validate this methodology using the program SAFIR. Comparisons are made between the results obtained applying the referred new methodology and finite element analyses using shell elements. The studies were made to laterally restrained beams, unrestrained beams, axially compressed columns and columns subjected to bending plus compression.

The latter, combined with the higher safety factors, often make the reinforcement of the old structures necessary. Most reinforcement methods involve transforming a structural timber member into a composite beam. Composite sections have a long tradition in timber construction. In the early days, multiple timber beams were connected with interlocking tooth and wooden shear connecters, which resulted in an elastic connection. Although historical timber structures are frequently upgraded, no method has yet been established and fully accepted by all stakeholders such as owners, builders, architects, engineers and cultural heritage organisations. Carbon fibre-reinforced polymers (CFRP) have already shown their efficiency in structural reinforcement especially in concrete structures. Moreover, previous studies have shown that CFRP has the potential to meet the expectations of all parties involved. In order to reach the service-limit state, a high amount of carbon fibres has to be used, or considering the cost of reinforcement, prestress has to be applied. However, prestressing often goes hand-in-hand with delaminating issues. The camber method presented here offers an efficient solution for prestressing timber bending members and overcoming the known obstacles. In the method proposed, the timber beam is cambered using an adjustable prop at midspan during the bonding of the CRFP-lamella to the lower side of the bending member. After curing the adhesive, the prop is removed and the prestressed composite beam is ready to be used. The prestress introduced in the system is not constant, but has a triangular shape and peaks at midspan, where it is used the most. The prestress force, which declines towards the end of the beam, leads to a constant shear stress over the whole length of the reinforcement,avoiding a concentrated anchorage zone. An analytical calculation model has been developed to calculate and design prestressed timber- bending members using the camber method. Numerical modelling, using a multi-surface plasticity model for timber, confirmed the results from the analytical model, and clearly reduced delaminating issues, comparing very favourably to traditional prestressing methods. The experimental parametric study, including the determination of the short-term loadbearing capacity of structural-sized beams, showed agreement with the analytical and numerical calculation. The prestressed reinforcement showed a benefit of nearly 50% towards the ultimate-limit state and up to 70% towards the service-limit state. Calculations revealed that the use of high modulus CFRP allows even higher benefits, depending on the configurations and requirements. The long-term design of the prestressed composite beam was investigated by extending the analytical model. The creep of the timber leads to a load transfer from the timber towards the CFRP, and therefore increases the benefit towards the ultimatelimit design. Applying high modulus CFRP-lamellas allows for a complete utilisation of the design capacity of timber and carbon fibre-reinforced polymer. The thorough investigation conducted demonstrated that the camber method is an efficient technique for prestressing and reinforcing timber-bending members. Furthermore, the calculation model presented allows for a safe design and estimation of long-term behaviour. N2 - Die Sanierung von bestehenden Gebäuden bringt häufig eine Erhöhung der Nutz- und Auflasten mit sich. Dies und die von den neuen Normen geforderten höheren Sicherheitsfaktoren erfordern oft eine Verstärkung der bestehenden Tragstruktur. Die meisten Massnahmen verwandeln den Holzbalken in einen Verbundquerschnitt. Zusammengesetzte Querschnitte haben in der Holzkonstruktion eine lange Tradition. Zu Beginn wurden die Konstruktionen durch Verzahnen und / oder durch Hartholzdübel respektive Keile miteinander verbunden. Kohlefaser verstärke Kunststoffe (CFK) haben bereits den Nachweis der Effizienz zur Verstärkung bestehender Strukturen erbracht, dies insbesondere im Betonbau. Verstärkungen im Holzbau werden bereits durchgeführt, jedoch hat sich bis heute noch keine Methode etabliert welche für alle involvierten Parteien wie Bauherr, Bauunternehmung, Architekt Ingenieur und Denkmalpflege zufriedenstellend ist. Verschiedene Untersuchungen zeigten, dass CFK das Potenzial hat diese Ansprüche zu erfüllen. Um mit dem Hochleistungsmaterial CFK auch die Durchbiegung reduzieren zu können ist entweder eine Vorspannung notwendig oder es muss andererseits sehr viel CFK eingesetzt werden, was die Methode unnötig verteuert. Leider kommt eine Vorspannung meist Hand in Hand mit Delaminierungsproblemen. Die Ursache dafür sind konzentrierte Schubspannungen an den Lamellenenden. Hier setzt die in der Dissertation präsentierte Methode zur Vorspannung von Biegebalken an und löst die bekannten Probleme. Die Vorspannung wird durch Überhöhung des zu sanierenden Balkens während der Verklebung mit der Kohlefaserlamelle erzeugt. Dies erfolgt mit Hilfe einer Schalungsstütze in der Mitte des Balkens. Durch das Entfernen der Schalungsstütze wird der verstärkte Balken vorgespannt und kann belastet werden. Das durch die Überhöhung induzierte Biegemoment ist dreieckförmig. Daher ist die Schubspannung in der Klebefuge gleichmässig über die Länge verteilt und auf eine konzentrierte Verankerung der Vorspannkraft wird verzichtet. Die Vorspannkraft ist in der Mitte, wo sie am meisten benötigt wird, am grössten und gegen aussen abnehmend. Ein analytisches Berechnungsmodel zur Berechnung und Dimensionierung von Balken, welche mit der präsentierten Methode vorgespannt sind, wurde entwickelt. Nummerische Modellierungen mit einem nichtlinearen Materialmodell für Holz bestätigten die Resultate der analytischen Berechnungen und das klar reduzierte Risiko gegenüber Delaminierung. Die Laborversuche beinhalteten eine Parameterstudie sowie die Ermittlung der Bruchlast von vorgespannten Holzbalken mit baupraktischen Abmessungen. Die Tragfähigkeit konnte um ca. 50 % gesteigert werden. Der Beitrag zur vebrauchstauglichkeit war, abhängig vom Gefährdungsbild, bis zu 70 %. Berechnungen zeigten, dass bei der Verwendung von hochmoduligen CFK-Lamellen diese Werte je nach Anforderung und Gefährdungsbild noch höher ausfallen. Das Langzeitverhalten des Verbundquerschnittes wurde analytisch untersucht. Durch das Kriechen des Holzes wird es über die Zeit leicht entlastet und der CFK übernimmt mehr Last. Bei hochmoduligen CFK-Lamellen kann die Kapazität von Holz und CFK vollständig ausgenutzt werden. Die ausführlichen Untersuchungen bewiesen die Effizienz der präsentierten Verstärkungsmethode. Mit dem analytischen Berechnungsmodell können verstärkte Balken sicher dimensioniert und das Langzeitverhalten abgeschätzt werden.

The main results show that the RHA is a macro-mesoporous amorphous siliceous material with a very high silica content comparable with SF. The pore size distribution is the most important parameter of RHA besides amorphous silica content. This parameter affects pore volume, specific surface area, and thus the water demand and the pozzolanic reactivity of RHA and its behaviour in SCHPC. The incorporation of RHA decreases filling and passing abilities, but significantly increases plastic viscosity and segregation resistance of SCHPC. Therefore, RHA can be used as a viscosity modifying admixture for SCHPC. The incorporation of RHA increases the superplasticizer adsorption, the superplasticizer saturation dosage, yield stress and plastic viscosity of mortar. Fresh mortar formulated from SCHPC is a shear-thickening material. The incorporation of RHA/SF ecreases the shearthickening degree. The incorporation of RHA/SF increases the degree of cement hydration. SF appears more effective at 3 days possibly due to the better nucleation site effect, whereas RHA dominates at the later ages possibly due to the internal water curing effect. The incorporation of RHA/SF increases the degree of C3S hydration, particularly the C3S hydration rate from 3 to 14 days. The pozzolanic reaction takes place outside and inside RHA particles. The internal pozzolanic eaction products consolidate the pores inside RHA particles rather than contribute to the pore refinement in the cement matrix. In the presence of the high alkali concentration, RHA particles act as microreactive aggregates and react with alkali hydroxide to generate the expansive alkali silica reaction products. Increasing the particle size and temperature increases the alkali silica reactivity of RHA. The mechanism for the successive pozzolanic and alkali silica reactions of RHA is theorized. Additionally, a new simple mix design method is proposed for SCHPC containing various supplementary cementitious materials, i.e. RHA, SF, fly ash and limestone powder.

Since we missed a system that allows to experiment with optimization techniques for the synthesis of spatial configurations, we developed a collection of methods over the past years. This collection is now combined in the presented open source library for computational planning synthesis, called CPlan.

Often these aspects are contradictory and it is not possible to choose one over the other; instead, they each need to be fulfilled as well as possible. In this situation ideal solutions are not always found because they are either not sought or the problems are regarded as being too complex for human capabilities.To improve this situation we propose complementing traditional design approaches with a design synthesis process based on evolutionary many-criteria optimization methods that can fulfill formalizable design requirements. In addition we show how self-organizing maps can be used to visualize many-dimensional solution spaces in an easily analyzable and comprehensible form.The system is presented using an urban planning scenario for the placement of building volumes.

In particular, we analyze the relations between different notions of growth orders and the Taylor coefficients. Our main intention is to look for generalizations of the Lindel¨of-Pringsheim theorem. In contrast to the classical holomorphic and the monogenic setting we only obtain inequality relations in the polymonogenic setting. This is due to the fact that the Almansi-Fischer decomposition of a polymonogenic function consists of different monogenic component functions where each of them can have a totally different kind of asymptotic growth behavior.

The formulation of the problem includes: a condition of equilibrium flow of a deformation process in the reference configuration; an equation of a coupled heat conductivity in a variational form, in which an influence of deformation characteristics of a process on the temperature field is taken into account; tensor-linear constitutive relations for a hypoelastic material; kinematic and evolutional relations; initial and boundary conditions. Based on this formulation several axisymmetric isothermal and coupled problems of finite deformations of isotropic and anisotropic bodies are solved. The solution of coupled thermomechanical problems for a hollow cylinder in case of finite deformation showed an essential influence of coupling on distribution of temperature, stresses and strains. The obtained solutions show the development of stressstrain state and temperature changing in axisymmetric bodies in the case of finite deformations.

On the other hand, advent of powerful computers has led to development of numerous numerical methods to deal with this phenomenon, resulting in a wide variety of methods trying to simulate the behavior of the soil stratum. This survey studies two common approaches to model the soil’s behavior in a system consisting of a structure with two degrees of freedom, representing a two-storey frame structure made of steel, with the column resting on a pile embedded into sand in laboratory scale. The effect of soil simulation technique on the dynamic behavior of the structure is of major interest in the study. Utilized modeling approaches are the so-called Holistic method, and substitution of soil with respective impedance functions.

This chicken-eggproblem is known as simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). Asctec’s quadrotor Pelican is a powerful and flexible research UAS (unmanned aircraft system) which enables the development of new real-time on-board algorithms for SLAM as well as autonomous navigation. The relative UAS pose estimation for SLAM, usually based on low-cost sensors like inertial measurement units (IMU) and barometers, is known to be affected by high drift rates. In order to significantly reduce these effects, we incorporate additional independent pose estimation techniques using exteroceptive sensors. In this article we present first pose estimation results using a stereo camera setup as well as a laser range finder, individually. Even though these methods fail in few certain configurations we demonstrate their effectiveness and value for the reduction of IMU drift rates and give an outlook for further works towards SLAM.

In this study an unconventional approach of structural optimization is presented which utilize the Energy method with Integral Material behaviour (EIM), based on the Lagrange’s principle of minimum potential energy. The equilibrium condition with the EIM, as an alternative method for nonlinear analysis, is secured through minimization of the potential energy as an optimization problem. Imposing this problem as an additional constraint on a higher cost function of a structural property, a bilevel programming problem is formulated. The nested strategy of solution of the bilevel problem is used, treating the energy and the upper objective function as separate optimization problems. Utilizing the convexity of the potential energy, gradient based algorithms are employed for its minimization and the upper cost function is minimized using the gradient free algorithms, due to its unknown properties. Two practical examples are considered in order to prove the efficiency of the method. The first one presents a sizing problem of I steel section within encased composite cross section, utilizing the material nonlinearity. The second one is a discrete shape optimization of a steel truss bridge, which is compared to a previous study based on the Finite Element Method.

The conventional procedure of ground motion selection is based on matching the motion properties, e.g. magnitude, amplitude, fault distance, and fault mechanism. The seismic target spectrum is only used in the scaling process following the random selection process. Therefore, the aim of the paper is to present a procedure to select a sets of ground motions from a built database of ground motions. The selection procedure is based on running an optimization problem using Dijkstra’s algorithm to match the selected set of ground motions to a target response spectrum. The selection and scaling procedure of optimized sets of ground motions is presented by examining the analyses of nonlinear single degree of freedom systems.

T1 - A Stillinger-Weber Potential for Single-Layer Black Phosphorus, and the Importance of Cross-Pucker Interactions for Negative Poisson's Ratio and Edge Stress-Induced Bending JF - Nanoscale N2 - The distinguishing structural feature of single-layered black phosphorus is its puckered structure, which leads to many novel physical properties. In this work, we first present a new parameterization of the Stillinger–Weber potential for single-layered black phosphorus. In doing so, we reveal the importance of a cross-pucker interaction term in capturing its unique mechanical properties, such as a negative Poisson's ratio. In particular, we show that the cross-pucker interaction enables the pucker to act as a re-entrant hinge, which expands in the lateral direction when it is stretched in the longitudinal direction. As a consequence, single-layered black phosphorus has a negative Poisson's ratio in the direction perpendicular to the atomic plane. As an additional demonstration of the impact of the cross-pucker interaction, we show that it is also the key factor that enables capturing the edge stress-induced bending of single-layered black phosphorus that has been reported in ab initio calculations.

The main parts are reproducing kernel triangular B-splines, extended isogeometric analysis for solving weakly discontinuous problems, collocation methods using superconvergent points, and B-spline basis in image registration applications. Each topic is oriented towards application of isogeometric analysis basis functions to ease the process of integrating the modeling and analysis phases of simulation. First, we develop reproducing a kernel triangular B-spline-based FEM for solving PDEs. We review the triangular B-splines and their properties. By definition, the triangular basis function is very flexible in modeling complicated domains. However, instability results when it is applied for analysis. We modify the triangular B-spline by a reproducing kernel technique, calculating a correction term for the triangular kernel function from the chosen surrounding basis. The improved triangular basis is capable to obtain the results with higher accuracy and almost optimal convergence rates. Second, we propose an extended isogeometric analysis for dealing with weakly discontinuous problems such as material interfaces. The original IGA is combined with XFEM-like enrichments which are continuous functions themselves but with discontinuous derivatives. Consequently, the resulting solution space can approximate solutions with weak discontinuities. The method is also applied to curved material interfaces, where the inverse mapping and the curved triangular elements are considered. Third, we develop an IGA collocation method using superconvergent points. The collocation methods are efficient because no numerical integration is needed. In particular when higher polynomial basis applied, the method has a lower computational cost than Galerkin methods. However, the positions of the collocation points are crucial for the accuracy of the method, as they affect the convergent rate significantly. The proposed IGA collocation method uses superconvergent points instead of the traditional Greville abscissae points. The numerical results show the proposed method can have better accuracy and optimal convergence rates, while the traditional IGA collocation has optimal convergence only for even polynomial degrees. Lastly, we propose a novel dynamic multilevel technique for handling image registration. It is application of the B-spline functions in image processing. The procedure considered aims to align a target image from a reference image by a spatial transformation. The method starts with an energy function which is the same as a FEM-based image registration. However, we simplify the solving procedure, working on the energy function directly. We dynamically solve for control points which are coefficients of B-spline basis functions. The new approach is more simple and fast. Moreover, it is also enhanced by a multilevel technique in order to prevent instabilities. The numerical testing consists of two artificial images, four real bio-medical MRI brain and CT heart images, and they show our registration method is accurate, fast and efficient, especially for large deformation problems.

Simulationsergebnisse zur sommerlichen Überhitzung von natürlich belüfteten Gebäuden in Deutschland und Großbritannien zeigen jedoch für einige Wetterstationen weniger Überhitzung für Simulationen mit dem sommer-fokussierten Referenzjahr als für solche mit dem entsprechenden Testreferenzjahr (TRY) für den gleichen Ort. Dies gilt insbesondere dann, wenn einzelne Monate miteinander verglichen werden. Neben der Wahl eines kompletten Halbjahres, das sowohl extrem warme als auch vergleichsweise kühle Monate beinhalten kann, liegt dies vor allem begründet in der fehlenden Berücksichtigung der Solarstrahlung bei der Auswahl eines warmen Referenzjahres, die jedoch eine wichtige Rolle für sommerliche Überhitzungserscheinungen in Gebäuden spielt. Eine verlässliche, allgemein anerkannte Methode zur Erstellung von sommer-fokussierten Referenzjahren erscheint daher auch im Hinblick auf die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen in der Europäischen Union, die Strategien zur natürlichen Belüftung von Neubauten und Sanierungen begünstigen, erforderlich. Diese Arbeit präsentiert einen Ansatz zur Erstellung eines Sommerreferenzjahres (Summer Reference Year – SRY) aus dem TRY eines gegebenen Ortes und langjährigen Klimadaten. Die existierenden TRY-Daten werden hierbei skaliert, um den Bedingungen für Trockentemperatur und Solarstrahlung von nah-extremen Kandidatenjahren zu entsprechen, die separat über einen statistischen Ansatz ausgewählt werden. Anschließend werden Feuchttemperatur, Windgeschwindigkeit und Luftdruck des TRY durch lineare Korrelationen mit der Trockentemperatur angepasst, um die entsprechenden SRY-Daten zu erhalten. Der Vorteil dieser Methode liegt darin, dass das grundlegende Wettermuster des TRY erhalten bleibt und somit eine klare Relation zwischen SRY und TRY besteht, die eine Vergleichbarkeit von Simulationsergebnissen gewährleistet. Über vergleichende Gebäudesimulationen mit dem zugrundeliegenden TRY und langjährigen Klimadatensätzen kann nachgewiesen werden, dass sich das SRY zur Ermittlung sommerlicher Überhitzungserscheinungen in natürlich belüfteten Gebäuden eignet. Weiterhin kann gezeigt werden, dass das SRY im Gegensatz zur direkten Nutzung eines Kandidatenjahres für einen nah-extremen Sommer die Möglichkeit eines monatsscharfen Vergleichs mit dem TRY erlaubt und frei von wenig repräsentativen Besonderheiten ist, die in den entsprechenden Kandidatenjahren vorhanden sein können.

We formulate the problem as a multi-criterial optimization problem, where the compliance is computed for each load case. Then, the Epsilon constraint method (method proposed by Chankong and Haimes, 1971) is adapted. The strategy of this method is based on the concept of minimizing the maximum compliance resulting from the critical load case while the other remaining compliances are considered in the constraints. In each iteration, the compliances of all load cases are computed and only the maximum one is minimized. The topology optimization process is switching from one load to another according to the variation of the resulting compliance. In this work we will motivate and explain the proposed methodology and provide some numerical examples.

Recent studies demonstrate that artificial neural networks can be used to detect sensor faults. In this paper, decentralized artificial neural networks (ANNs) are applied for autonomous sensor fault detection. On each sensor node of a wireless SHM system, an ANN is implemented to measure and to process structural response data. Structural response data is predicted by each sensor node based on correlations between adjacent sensor nodes and on redundancies inherent in the SHM system. Evaluating the deviations (or residuals) between measured and predicted data, sensor faults are autonomously detected by the wireless sensor nodes in a fully decentralized manner. A prototype SHM system implemented in this study, which is capable of decentralized autonomous sensor fault detection, is validated in laboratory experiments through simulated sensor faults. Several topologies and modes of operation of the embedded ANNs are investigated with respect to the dependability and the accuracy of the fault detection approach. In conclusion, the prototype SHM system is able to accurately detect sensor faults, demonstrating that neural networks, processing decentralized structural response data, facilitate autonomous fault detection, thus increasing the dependability and the accuracy of structural health monitoring systems.

The solution strategy is known as Elitist Non-Dominated Sorting Evolution Strategy (ENSES) wherein Evolution Strategies (ES) as Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) in the elitist Non-dominated Sorting Genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) procedure. Evolutionary algorithm seems a compatible approach to resolve multi-objective optimization problems because it is inspired by natural evolution, which closely linked to Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques and elitism has shown an important factor for improving evolutionary multi-objective search. In order to evaluate the notion of performance by ENSES, the well-known study case of sandwich structures are reconsidered. For Case 1, the goals of the multi-objective optimization are minimization of the deflection and the weight of the sandwich structures. The length, the core and skin thicknesses are the design variables of Case 1. For Case 2, the objective functions are the fabrication cost, the beam weight and the end deflection of the sandwich structures. There are four design variables i.e., the weld height, the weld length, the beam depth and the beam width in Case 2. Numerical results are presented in terms of Paretooptimal solutions for both evaluated cases.

Building information models support the representation, storage, and exchange of various information relevant to construction planning. This information can be used for describing, e.g., geometric/physical properties or costs of a building, for creating construction schedules, or for representing other characteristics of construction projects. Based on this information, plans and specifications as well as reports and presentations of a planned building can be created automatically. A fundamental principle of BIM is object parameterization, which allows specifying geometrical, numerical, algebraic and associative dependencies between objects contained in a building information model. In this paper, existing challenges of parametric modeling using the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) as a federated model for integrated planning are shown, and open research questions are discussed.

However, it has to be kept in mind that the accuracy of the obtained parameter is closely related to the chosen experimental setup, such as the number of sensors as well as their location. A well considered position of sensors can increase the quality of the measurement and to reduce the number of monitoring points. This Paper illustrates this concept by means of a loading device that is used to identify the stiffness and permeability of soft clays. With an initial setup of the measurement devices the pore water pressure and the vertical displacements are recorded and used to identify the afore mentioned parameters. Starting from these identified parameters, the optimal measurement setup is investigated with a method based on global sensitivity analysis. This method shows an optimal sensor location assuming three sensors for each measured quantity, and the results are discussed.

The discrete version of the Theorem of Goursat is used to describe the solution of the discrete biharmonic equation by the help of two discrete holomorphic functions. In order to obtain a Taylor expansion of discrete holomorphic functions we introduce a basis of discrete polynomials which fulfill the so-called Appell property with respect to the discrete adjoint Cauchy-Riemann operator. All these steps are very important in the field of fracture mechanics, where stress and displacement fields in the neighborhood of singularities caused by cracks and notches have to be calculated with high accuracy. Using the sum representation of holomorphic functions it seems possible to reproduce the order of singularity and to determine important mechanical characteristics.

As a result, construction schedules become unreliable and deadlines are often not met. While the optimization of construction schedules with respect to costs and makespan has been a matter of research in the past decades, the optimization of the robustness of construction schedules has received little attention. In this paper, the effects of uncertainties inherent to the input data of construction schedules are discussed. Possibilities are investigated to improve the reliability of construction schedules by considering alternative processes for certain tasks and by identifying the combination of processes generating the most robust schedule with respect to the makespan of a construction project.

Hitherto, the main application fields of such materials are repair and restoration of buildings. However, due to the constant increment of service life requirements and the cost efficiency, polymer modified concrete (PCC) is also used for construction purposes. Therefore, there is a demand for studying the mechanical properties of PCC and entitative differences compared to conventional concrete (CC). It is significant to investigate whether all the assumed hypotheses and existing analytical formulations about CC are also valid for PCC. In the present study, analytical models available in the literature are evaluated. These models are used for estimating mechanical properties of concrete. The investigated property in this study is the modulus of elasticity, which is estimated with respect to the value of compressive strength. One existing database was extended and adapted for polymer-modified concrete mixtures along with their experimentally measured mechanical properties. Based on the indexed data a comparison between model predictions and experiments was conducted by calculation of forecast errors.

The Moisil-Theodorescu system (MTS) is a regularity condition for such functions depending on the radius vector r = ix+jy+kz seen as a reduced quaternionic variable. The analogues of the main theorems of complex analysis for the MTS in quaternion forms are established: Cauchy, Cauchy integral formula, Taylor and Laurent series, approximation theorems and Cauchy type integral properties. The analogues of positive powers (inner spherical monogenics) are investigated: the set of recurrence formulas between the inner spherical monogenics and the explicit formulas are established. Some applications of the regular function in the elasticity theory and hydrodynamics are given.

Dieser Vorgang wird in der Wirtschaft Outsourcing genannt und beschränkt sich in der Regel auf Arbeiten, welche nicht zu den Kernkompetenzen eines Unternehmens gehören. Wenn diese Arbeiten durch spezialisierte Unternehmen übernommen werden ergeben sich Potenziale, die weit über eine bloße Kostensenkung hinausgehen. Der Kern dieser Arbeit bezieht sich auf die Auslagerung von sogenannten Nebentätigkeiten im Zusammenhang einer Bauwerksausführung. Dabei werden die arbeitsrechtliche Situation, Machbarkeit und Sinnhaftigkeit analysiert. Das Arbeitsrecht im Baugewerbe ist überaus komplex und von starren Regelungen geprägt. Die für allgemeinverbindlich erklärten Tarifverträge gelten gemeinhin für alle Betriebe, die überwiegend bauliche Tätigkeiten ausüben. Problematisch wird die tarifliche Zuordnung für Betriebe, welche die Nebentätigkeiten übernehmen und für gewöhnlich nicht in den Geltungsbereich der Tarifverträge fallen. Bei der Vergabe von Nebentätigkeiten mit Hilfe von Werk- oder Dienstverträgen bedarf es einer genauen Klärung, ab wann eine unerlaubte Arbeitnehmerüberlassung beginnt. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit soll untersucht werden, inwieweit eine Auslagerung der baulichen Nebentätigkeiten durch eine Werk- oder Dienstvertragsvergabe an die Grenzen der arbeitsrechtlichen Gegebenheiten stößt. Zusätzlich wird eine tarifliche Einordnung der Tätigkeiten vorgenommen.

In the last decade, security issues such as the PS3 jailbreak demonstrate that common security notions are rather restrictive, and it seems that they do not model the real world adequately. As a result, in the first part of this work, we introduce a less restrictive security model that is closer to reality. In this model it turned out that existing (on-line) authenticated encryption schemes cannot longer beconsidered secure, i.e. they can guarantee neither data privacy nor data integrity. Therefore, we present two novel authenticated encryption scheme, namely COFFE and McOE, which are not only secure in the standard model but also reasonably secure in our generalized security model, i.e. both preserve full data inegrity. In addition, McOE preserves a resonable level of data privacy. The second part of this thesis starts with proposing the hash function Twister-Pi, a revised version of the accepted SHA-3 candidate Twister. We not only fixed all known security issues of Twister, but also increased the overall soundness of our hash-function design. Furthermore, we present some fundamental groundwork in the area of password-hashing schemes. This research was mainly inspired by the medial omnipresence of password-leakage incidences. We show that the password-hashing scheme scrypt is vulnerable against cache-timing attacks due to the existence of a password-dependent memory-access pattern. Finally, we introduce Catena the first password-hashing scheme that is both memory-consuming and resistant against cache-timing attacks.

Meanwhile, the urban production practices of the Mussolini, Stalin, Salazar, Hitler and Franco dictatorships have become the subject of comprehensive research projects.

This approach requires strict adherence to the research methods of planning history and urban design theory. Meanwhile, these methods must be opened to include those of general historical studies. With this symposium, the research group aims to further qualify this European perspective. The aim is to pursue an inventory of the various national historiographies on the topic of “urban design and dictatorship”.

The phenomenon often occurs in long and slender vertical structure like high rise building, tower, chimney or bridge pylon, which resulting in unfavorable responses and might lead to the collapse of the structures. The phenomenon appears when frequency of vortex shedding produced in the wake area of body meet the natural frequency of the structure. Even though this phenomenon does not necessarily generate a divergent amplitude response, the structure still may fail due to fatigue damage. To reduce the effect of vortex induced vibration, engineers widely use passive vibration response control system. In this case, the thesis studies the effect of tuned mass damper. The objective of this thesis is to simulate the effect of tuned mass damper in reducing unfavorable responses due to vortex induced vibration and initiated by numerical model validation with respect to wind tunnel test report. The reference structure that being used inside the thesis is Stonecutter Bridge, Hongkong. A numerical solver for computational uid dynamics named VX ow which developed by Morgenthal [6] is utilized for wind and structure simulation. The comparison between numerical model and wind tunnel result shows 10% maximum tip displacement diference in the model of full erection freestanding tower. The tuned mass damper (TMD) model itself built separately in finite element software SOFiSTiK, and the efective damping obtained from this model then applied inside input modal data of VX ow simulation. A single TMD with mass ratio of TMD 0.5% to the mass of first bending frequency, the maximum tip displacement is measured to be average 67% reduced. Considering construction limitation and robustness of TMD, the effects of multiple TMD inside a structure are also studied. An uncoupled procedure of applying aeroelastic loads obtained from VX ow inside finite element software SOFiSTiK is also done to observe the optimum distribution and optimum mass ratio of multiple tuned mass damper. The rest of the properties of TMD are calculated with Den Hartog's formula. The results are as follows: peak displacement in the case of multiple TMD that distributed with polynomial spacing achieve 7.8% more reduction performance than the one that distributed with equal spacing. Optimum mass of tuned mass damper achieved with ratio 1.25% mass of first bending frequency corresponds to across wind direction.

The research should be understood as an experiment to a systematic presentation of the symbolic visual world in Xinjiang and therefore in a broader sense as an experiment to preserve the endangered Xiyu-Cultural Heritage. Due to the profound change in China and the Go-West-Strategy of China’s economic programme an efficient way must be found to bring modernization and tradition in harmony. This study describes, analyses and evaluates exemplarily, how signs and symbols of knowledge and culture have been mixed between eastern and western cultures along the Silk Road in Xinjiang. It displays how they have been transferred and how far the Xiyu-Culture reflects, that Xinjiang was a meeting point of eastern and western cultures. In the process of my research three main questions arose: Firstly, what can the experience model of the ancient Silk Road contribute to the understanding of cultural development in today’s information age? Secondly, what does cultural diversity mean for communication in Xinjiang? Is there an increase of media technology in the field of visual communication because of international influences? Thirdly, how can Xinjiang benefit from the opportunities given by the Go-West-Strategy of China’s economic programme in an increasingly globalized world and find a balance between culture and economic prosperity? Therefore, this study uses a method that integrates a cultural-anthropological perspective. Characteristics of the traditional visual Xiyu-Signs, their significance for the ethnic groups in Xinjiang and cultural exchanges between Europe and Asia are discussed based on a field work, and the particular influence of trade and transport routes is presented. The visual signs of the Xiyu-Culture are shown from the time before the Islamization to today’s Islamic period. The research shows that the signs are not place-bound cultural phenomena or local tradition; they are rather influenced by regional, national and international cultures consciously or unconsciously. They are a result of cultural communication. Finally the signs of Xiyu-Culture of Xinjiang are thoroughly researched with the Go-West-Strategy of the Chinese government. Economic development brings to Xinjiang not only modernization and prosperity, but also a cultural and ecological imbalance. Mankind formed everything into structure, what he perceives around him, with signs. The Xiyu-Signs create a visual structure. The Xiyu-Culture still has influence on the lifestyle of the ethnic groups in Xinjiang. Today, the confrontation between the traditional Xiyu-Culture and economic development has led to a serious conflict in Xinjiang. This study is a critical interpretation of the current situation of Xiyu-Culture and the Chinese economic program in Xinjiang. It also contributes to the analysis of the hitherto insufficiently recognized interactions between history, culture, politics and economics of cultural globalization in Xinjiang. N2 - Kurzfassung Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die traditionellen Xiyü-Zeichen im Visuellen verschiedener Volksgruppen am Beispiel Xinjiangs im Nordwesten Chinas, wo einst die alte Seidenstraße entlangführte. Die Untersuchung versteht sich als ein Versuch der systematischen Darstellung der symbolischen Bildwelt in Xinjiang und damit im weiteren Sinne auch als ein Versuch, das Xiyü-Kulturerbe zu bewahren, das angesichts des tiefgreifenden Wandels in China und der Go-West-Strategie des chinesischen Wirtschaftsprogramms, welches sich auf die weiten Westgebiete Chinas bezieht, in Gefahr geraten ist. Es muss ein Weg gefunden werden, Modernisierung und Tradition in Einklang zu bringen. Diese Studie beschreibt, analysiert und bewertet exemplarisch, wie sich Zeichen und Symbole des Wissens und der Kultur entlang der Seidenstraße in Xinjiang zwischen den östlichen und westlichen Kulturen vermischt haben, wie sie übertragen wurden und inwieweit die Xiyü-Kultur reflektiert, dass Xinjiang ein Treffpunkt zwischen östlichen und westlichen Einflüssen war. In der Annährung an dieses Forschungsziel werden drei Hauptfragen zusammengefasst: Erstens, was kann das Erfahrungsmodell der alten Seidenstraße zum Verständnis der kulturellen Entwicklung im heutigen Informationszeitalter beitragen? Zweitens, was bedeutet Vielfalt für die kulturelle Kommunikation in Xinjiang? Steigen die Medienereignisse der visuellen Kommunikation und die internationalen Einflüsse an? Drittens, wie kann Xinjiang die Chancen der Go-West-Strategie des chinesischen Wirtschaftsprogramms in einer zunehmend globalisierten Welt nutzen und in der zukünftigen weltwirtschaftlichen Entwicklung wieder Vitalität zeigen? Um sich auf diese Weise den Antworten zu nähern, verwendet diese Studie einen Ansatz, der eine kulturanthropologische Perspektive integriert. Auf Grundlage einer Feldstudie werden Eigenschaften der traditionellen visuellen Xiyü-Zeichen, ihre Bedeutung für die ethnischen Volksgruppen Xinjiangs und den kulturellen Austausch zwischen Europa und Asien diskutiert und der besondere Einfluss von Handel und Verkehrswegen aufgezeigt. Die visuellen Zeichenformen der Xiyü-Kultur wurden von der Zeit vor der Islamisierung bis hin zur heutigen islamischen Zeit dargestellt. Die Forschung zeigt, dass die Zeichen kein ortsgebundenes Kulturphänomen oder eine lokale Tradition sind, vielmehr werden sie von regionalen, nationalen und internationalen Kulturkreisen bewusst oder unbewusst beeinflusst. Sie sind ein Ergebnis kultureller Kommunikation. Schließlich setzt sich die Studie mit den Zeichen der Xiyü-Kultur Xinjiangs in Relation mit der Go-West-Strategie der chinesischen Regierung auseinander. Die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung bringt für Xinjiang nicht nur Modernisierung und Wohlstand, sondern auch ein kulturelles und ökologisches Ungleichgewicht. Der Mensch strukturiert alles, was er in seiner Umgebung wahrnimmt, mit Zeichen. Die Xiyü-Zeichen schaffen eine visuelle Strukturierung. Die Xiyü-Kultur hat nach wie vor Einfluss auf die Lebensweise der ethnischen Gruppen in Xinjiang. Heute hat die Konfrontation zwischen der traditionellen Xiyü-Kultur und der wirtschaftlichen Entwicklung zu einem ernsthaften Konflikt in Xinjiang geführt. Diese Studie versteht sich als eine kritische Interpretation der aktuellen Situation der Xiyü-Kultur bzw. des chinesischen Wirtschaftsprogramms in Xinjiang. Sie will darüber hinaus einen Beitrag leisten zur Analyse der bislang nur unzureichend erfassten Wechselwirkungen zwischen Geschichte, Kultur, Politik und Wirtschaft in der kulturellen Globalisierung in Xinjiang.

Resting upon the basis of traditional continent philosophy, this social space theory has adopted the structuration methods, at the same time trying to build certain combination between theoretical frame work establishment and empirical observations. Therefore, the socio-spatial transition study is neither a macro theory of traditional structuralism nor a typology of urban planning theory, or a positivism social geography, but an operative theory on practical purpose. Firstly, what’s distinct from the traditional structuralism is that this study examines the endless transiting structural relations, not macroscopic narrations of absolute definition and structure. In fact, any city and space are always co-existed in their structurational transiting relationship, thus research in transition has become the main body of this study. And case study is a must for research in transition, as part of efforts to apply the structuration concept into practice reason. Secondly, this study first establishes the fundamental structuration concept of socio-spatial transition, which, as an operative tool, is applied to conduct transition analysis on specific case about the City of Beijing. Therefore, as a social space theory, referring to as science, remains criticism of traditional continent philosophy. However, this criticism did not working on the level of ideology or conceptions, but on transiting under structural relations, keeping it from incompetent ideology criticism of continental critical theory. Unfortunately contemporary urban and space development have now gone extremely unbalanced under a background of globalization; yet traditional macro theories are incapable of either producing significant impact on practice or helping people identify practical problems. While facing general issues, particularly the Chinese urban issue category established on a meta-structured city mode, the micro-case study has plunged into dilemma for unknowing either to ask questions or to answer questions. Therefore, this study is set to identify dilemma and find direction for future relevant research. In this dissertation, Beijing is used as a model, and structuration methods as tools. It has extensively analyzed the social-spatial transition of the city space of Beijing, acquiring brand-new knowledge of its urban space development. It is helpful to an in-depth understanding of the city space development not only in Beijing, but also in many other cities that were influenced by the capital model of Beijing. Since the start of reform and opening-up, China has created a unique development mode of the new-styled metropolitan and urbanization in history. This research is expected to analyze or decode what China’s urban development in between communal space and associative space.

In approaching this phenomenon, the research highlights how people interact with their institutional environments. This is also, perhaps centrally, an investigation into the possibility to engage an individual perspective to understand the transformation in urban experience, which is orienting society to new uses and forms of exclusion. Following the perspective deployed by the so-called “sociology of individuals” in French sociology or “reengagement of agency” in the Anglo-Saxon world; I claim that individuals as well as collectives are gaining increasing power to question and re-organize institutions. This re-organization, in the case of socio-urban institutions, is no guarantee for major levels in integration, cohesion, and equality. Unfortunately, social institutions are becoming hard in its exclusionary capabilities under people intervention during the last four decades. I believe that urban sociology is a field of struggle between different perspectives competing to “make sense” of social phenomena in cities. The orientation supported in this research is just one on many and it follows the roots of people and their life experiences within cities and how they influence the processes that shape the city. The last formulation is possibly not the clearest, because as we all know, references to “inhabitants” are presented in every variant of urban sociology. Nevertheless, there are not many variants focusing on peoples’ capability to influence institutional environments and by this way affecting the urban condition in which they find themselves. The particular institution selected for this study is the “School”. This thesis is organized around two parts: part one includes the conceptual framework, methodological approach, and historical contextualization; part two describes three case studies produced to analyse the forms of and the relations between individuals and school institution. Part one starts from a premise: within the context of declining welfare State in the case of industrialized countries, an important part of urban studies focuses on economic and spatial restructuration. Confronted with the same situation, a part of social sciences shifts to the individuals’ agency and social uncertainty. This research is embedded in the last theoretical description presented above, thus, because it tries to observe urban processes from the perspective of the individual and outside of developed economies. In this sense, Latin America represents a fundamental reference because urban conditions are historically marked by weak institutional arrangements to integrating people and large levels of marginality and exclusion among population. In this scenario individuals’ practices around inclusion-exclusion have an essential meaning in everyday life. Part two offers three study cases in which the relation between individuals and school institutions has been analyzed for the Metropolitan area of Santiago de Chile (MAS). Using different methodological resources an exhaustive account on three levels is presented: i) geo-referencing State intervention in public policies connected with neighborhood and schools to understand the form and extent of socio-urban exclusion in MAS, ii) narrative biographies applied to parents with children attending primary school, in order to reconstruct the familiar process of school selection and describing its impacts on the stabilization of school as an exclusionary device, and iii) autoethnography to describe in detail the temporal dimension involved in stabilizing actions which reinforces social mechanisms of urban integration-exclusion during the last three decades in Chile. A key argument advanced by this research proposes that: the way in which the idea of integration is enacted by people in their biographical careers imprints changes on the institutional orientation and by this way, contributes to the reorganization urban life. The high level of social exclusion in Santiago de Chile is not accountable without considering transformation in all socio-urban institutions, especially the school. No family considers social integration with people from a low social, economical or cultural background as relevant orientation for school selection. This particularity of the Chilean social reality is not derivable from any big capitalistic or modernization processes impacting our cities. Within the light of the thesis findings, I conclude that socio-urban institutions logics must be reassessment under the influences of people actions and representations. I also propose a consideration to major complementarities between urban studies and urban-institutions analysis. The school institutions is not just a sectorial field reserved to the researcher in education, on the contrary, it represent a key entrance to address people’s experience in their institutional urban environments. The re-emergence of social and urban movements in 2010, under the “Arab Spring” or the “Chilean Student Movements”, is not only a demonstration in the public space as result of major global trends. These situations are in essence, for this research, individuals gathering together and calling for recognition and autonomy inside institutional environment that tends to reject them. Similar situation was the focus of the Latin American urban sociology research, within the focus on grassroots and urban social movements at the end of the 1960s and beginning of the 1970s. In both cases, socio-urban institutions, unaware of recognition requirements claimed by inhabitants, are not beyond individual or collective reach. My main concern is to show that socio-urban institutions are constantly re-shaped as a result of individual action, what makes the difference, is the spirit that we all, socially, imprint on the logics of our socio-urban institutions, moving them to inclusion or exclusion.
