Architecture as Political Actor N2 - This book on the architecture of Tirana contains findings of the interdisciplinary seminar “TIRANA. Architecture as Political Actor” at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. In photographs, texts and diagrams it shows the approach to an unknown city that was explored following the ideas of the Actor Network Theory (ANT). Thus, the book gives an insight into scientific as well as artistic works, both mirroring the attempt to grasp the role of architecture within political processes in the 20th century and today. In this compilation of the architectural-political networks, an image of the city of Tirana emerges that gives an idea of specific built structures as well as of the architecture as political actor on a meta-level. In doing so, the book itself becomes an actor in the discussion of the relationship of architecture and politics in Albania and an example for the use of ANT as scientific-artistic tool for the research on architectural “things” in the context of a city.

Exploratory research of strategies used to create acoustic experiences of commemoration, remembrance, mourning and memory N2 - This research seeks to make an exploratory study of the strategies used by the creators of monuments, memorials, and commemorative places located in the public spaces that use sound as one of the primary raw material in their design. The term acoustic monu-memorials was coined in this research to encircle these structures and places. In order to achieve the goal of this research, it was necessary to compile a number of samples, primarily after the digital recording era of captured sound around 1971 to the present. The compilation was relevant because such a compendium was not found in the literature, and to the author's knowledge, a comprehensive investigation of the strategies used in planning acoustic monu-memorials in the urban spaces does not exist. The method used to create such compendium was to send a question to people with different background identities, such as visual and sound artists, musicians, art curators, and heritage scholars among others. This question produced a selection of 51 examples of acoustic monu-memorials located in public spaces. Subsequently, the examples were classified into four major categories according to their form and nature. Additionally, two examples from the main categories were chosen as case studies: The Sinti and Roma Memorial in Berlin, Germany and the Niche monument in Cali, Colombia. These study cases were presented, described, and analysed in detail as they represent the type of what could be defined as an acoustic monu-memorial in general. Lynch’s (1960) five elements that help individuals build the image of the city were transferred and used as a tool to help to build this image into acoustic terms. A thorough analysis of the acquired data yielded found the strategies used by the designers to shape, modify, transform, and structure public space. These strategies are entitled Sound Spaces. Moreover, a list entitled Urban Acoustic Commemoration Code was compiled. This list of suggestions addresses urban planners, architects, artists, designers, and general public interested in the aspects involved when creating acoustic commemoration phenomena in public spaces.

This paper presents a software framework for WiFi-based wireless sensor networks composed of low-cost mass market single-board computers. A number of specific system-level software components were developed to enable robust data acquisition, data processing, sensor network communication, and timing with a focus on structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. The framework was validated on Raspberry Pi computers, and its performance was studied in detail. The paper presents several characteristics of the measurement quality such as sampling accuracy and time synchronization and discusses the specific limitations of the system. The implementation includes a complementary smartphone application that is utilized for data acquisition, visualization, and analysis. A prototypical implementation further demonstrates the feasibility of integrating smartphones as data acquisition nodes into the network, utilizing their internal sensors. The measurement system was employed in several monitoring campaigns, three of which are documented in detail. The suitability of the system is evaluated based on comparisons of target quantities with reference measurements. The results indicate that the presented system can robustly achieve a measurement performance commensurate with that required in many typical SHM tasks such as modal identification. As such, it represents a cost-effective alternative to more traditional monitoring solutions.

Die neu entwickelten Verbindungen bestehen bevorzugt aus Stahlteilen mit Gewindeanschluss und werden mit einem Polymerverguss im Holz verankert. Die Kopplungselemente gestatten die einfache montagegerechte Verbindung von Holzbauteilen untereinander oder zu anderen Bauweisen. Sie nehmen die Zug- oder Drucklast axial auf und gewährleisten eine leistungsfähige und schlupf¬freie Verbindung zum Holz. Für den Verguss wird ein mineralisch gefülltes Epoxidharz mit sehr guten Klebeeigenschaften gegenüber Holz und den meisten üblichen Baustoffen verwendet. Im Holz werden für die Verankerung der Kopplungselemente Bohrungen vorgesehen, die sich sowohl aus technologischen Gründen als auch für eine gleichmäßige Spannungsverteilung vorteilhaft erweisen. Der Durchmesser der Bohrung ist gegenüber dem Verbindungselement deutlich größer, wodurch die Verbindungsfläche zum Holz bei konstanter Länge ansteigt. Die Vergrößerung der Fugen zwischen dem Verbindungselement und der Holzwandung von 7 mm auf 17 mm führt bei konstanter Einbindetiefe und gleichem Durchmesser des Verbin¬dungsmittels zu einer Laststeigerung von über 20 %. Die größere Vergussfuge gewährleistet darüber hinaus eine Vergleichmäßigung der Spannungen innerhalb der Verbindung, den Ein¬satz von frei geformten Verbindungselementen und eine Vereinfachung der Herstellung. Die Kopplungselemente sind für den Einsatz in Zug- oder Druckstößen ebenso geeignet wie für biegesteife Anschlüsse axial verbundener Biegeträger oder Rahmenecken. Sie können werkseitig im Holzbauteil vorgesehen oder als direkte Verbindung auf der Baustelle vergossen werden. Für die Baupraxis wird durch den Einsatz des schwindarmen Verguss-materials mit hoher Klebewirkung eine Bandbreite an Anwendungen vom Toleranzausgleich über Schubbewehrung bis zum Druck-, Zug- oder Biegeanschluss geboten. N2 - The development and scientific investigation of connecting structural elements for timber constructions is the focus of this thesis. These consist preferential of a connector with standard threading that is anchored to the timber with a polymer grout. The connector allows a simple assembly-compatible connection of the timber elements to other timber structures or different construction types. The new developed polymer-grouted connecting structural elements carry tensile or compressive axial loads and offer a slip-free connection with a high load capacity. The grout is made of an epoxy resin with mineral filling that ensures a reliable adhesive connection to timber and most common building materials. The connectors are mounted into the timber by drill holes that are advantageous for technological reasons and a consistent stress distribution. The diameter of the hole is considerably larger than the connector. Thereby, the mounting area to the timber is enlarged as well as the load capacity, even at constant length. While enlarging the gap between connector and enveloping timber from 7 mm to 17 mm the load capacity increases by more than 20 %. Within the larger gap, filled with polymer grout, the surface stress distribution is equalized. This allows the usage of free formed connectors and an easier handling. The cast-in connectors can be used for tensile or compression joints as well as for the bending connection of axial mounted beams or frame structures. It is possible to prefabricate the elements or to grout them on site as repair-joints. The stable polymer grout offers a variety of applications with its adhesive and low shrinking properties. In combination with threaded connectors it can be used to equalize tolerances or for tension, compression or shear-connectors and as reinforcement for timber structures.

Traditionell bezeichnet der Begriff Illustration ein Bild, das einen textlich vorangestellten Inhalt noch einmal visuell wiederholt und auf diesem Weg in einem Abbild verdoppelt. Traditionelle Illustration benennt also ein sekundäres, explizit von einem anderen Inhalt abhängiges Bild, das auch weggelassen werden könnte, ohne das Inhalt verloren geht. Genutzt wird dieser traditionelle Illustrationsbegriff heute unter anderem in den Forschungsfeldern der Kunstgeschichte, der Bildwissenschaften und der Literatur­wissenschaften. Aus der Perpektive der Praxis birgt der traditionelle Illustrationsbegriff ein grundsätzliches Problem in sich. Er versucht, mit einer statischen Definition ein äußerst lebendiges visuelles Phänomen unserer heutigen Zeit zu beschreiben. Professionelle Berufszeichner, die sogenannten Illustratorinnen und Illustratoren, kreieren heute Werke, die mit dem traditionellen Illustrations­begriff nicht mehr beschreibbar sind. Mehr noch, der traditionelle Illustrationsbegriff macht blind für diese Entwicklungen, die sich deshalb außerhalb des wissenschaft­lichen Diskurses abspielen. Die vorliegende Arbeit möchte deshalb einen Blick auf den Zustand zeitgenössischer literarischer Buch­illustration werfen, um den Begriff der Illustration in seiner aktuellen Unschärfe zu präzisieren, zu erweitern und somit zu aktualisieren.
