TY - JOUR A1 - Mehling, Simon A1 - Schnabel, Tobias A1 - Londong, Jörg T1 - Photocatalytic ozonation in an immersion rotary body reactor for the removal of micro-pollutants from the effluent of wastewater treatment plants JF - Water Science & Technology N2 - Carrier-bound titanium dioxide catalysts were used in a photocatalytic ozonation reactor for the degradation of micro-pollutants in real wastewater. A photocatalytic immersion rotary body reactor with a 36-cm disk diameter was used, and was irradiated using UV-A light-emitting diodes. The rotating disks were covered with catalysts based on stainless steel grids coated with titanium dioxide. The dosing of ozone was carried out through the liquid phase via an external enrichment and a supply system transverse to the flow direction. The influence of irradiation power and ozone dose on the degradation rate for photocatalytic ozonation was investigated. In addition, the performance of the individual processes photocatalysis and ozonation were studied. The degradation kinetics of the parent compounds were determined using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. First-order kinetics were determined for photocatalysis and photocatalytic ozonation. A maximum reaction rate of the reactor was determined, which could be achieved by both photocatalysis and photocatalytic ozonation. At a dosage of 0.4 mg /mg DOC, the maximum reaction rate could be achieved using 75% of the irradiation power used for sole photocatalysis, allowing increases in the energetic efficiency of photocatalytic wastewater treatment processes. The process of photocatalytic ozonation is suitable to remove a wide spectrum of micro-pollutants from wastewater.

There currently exists in many urban areas a large number of structures, which are prone to damage by earthquakes. These were constructed without the guidance of a national seismic code, either before it existed or before it was enforced. For instance, in Istanbul, Turkey, as a high seismic area, around 90% of buildings are substandard, which can be generalized into other earthquakeprone regions in Turkey. The reliability of this building stock resulting from earthquake-induced collapse is currently uncertain. Nonetheless, it is also not feasible to perform a detailed seismic vulnerability analysis on each building as a solution to the scenario, as it will be too complicated and expensive. This indicates the necessity of a reliable, rapid, and computationally easy method for seismic vulnerability assessment, commonly known as Rapid Visual Screening (RVS). In RVS methodology, an observational survey of buildings is performed, and according to the data collected during the visual inspection, a structural score is calculated without performing any structural calculations to determine the expected damage of a building and whether the building needs detailed assessment. Although this method might save time and resources due to the subjective/qualitative judgments of experts who performed the inspection, the evaluation process is dominated by vagueness and uncertainties, where the vagueness can be handled adequately through the fuzzy set theory but do not cover all sort of uncertainties due to its crisp membership functions. In this study, a novel method of rapid visual hazard safety assessment of buildings against earthquake is introduced in which an interval type-2 fuzzy logic system (IT2FLS) is used to cover uncertainties. In addition, the proposed method provides the possibility to evaluate the earthquake risk of the building by considering factors related to the building importance and exposure. A smartphone app prototype of the method has been introduced. For validation of the proposed method, two case studies have been selected, and the result of the analysis presents the robust efficiency of the proposed method.

This poses not only a threat to the life of people but also affects the socio-economic stability in the affected area. Therefore, it is necessary to assess such buildings’ present vulnerability to make an educated decision regarding risk mitigation by seismic strengthening techniques such as retrofitting. However, it is economically and timely manner not feasible to inspect, repair, and augment every old building on an urban scale. As a result, a reliable rapid screening methods, namely Rapid Visual Screening (RVS), have garnered increasing interest among researchers and decision-makers alike. In this study, the effectiveness of five different Machine Learning (ML) techniques in vulnerability prediction applications have been investigated. The damage data of four different earthquakes from Ecuador, Haiti, Nepal, and South Korea, have been utilized to train and test the developed models. Eight performance modifiers have been implemented as variables with a supervised ML. The investigations on this paper illustrate that the assessed vulnerability classes by ML techniques were very close to the actual damage levels observed in the buildings.

Given that various models can be used for modelling one physical phenomenon, the role of model comparison and model choice is becoming particularly important. Methods for model comparison and model choice typically used in practical applications nowadays are computationbased, and thus time consuming and computationally costly. Therefore, it is necessary to develop other approaches to working abstractly, i.e., without computations, with mathematical models. An abstract description of mathematical models can be achieved by the help of abstract mathematics, implying formalisation of models and relations between them. In this paper, a category theory-based approach to mathematical modelling is proposed. In this way, mathematical models are formalised in the language of categories, relations between the models are formally defined and several practically relevant properties are introduced on the level of categories. Finally, an illustrative example is presented, underlying how the category-theory based approach can be used in practice. Further, all constructions presented in this paper are also discussed from a modelling point of view by making explicit the link to concrete modelling scenarios.

Protocols for secure authentication and encryption protect our communication with various digital services, from private messaging, online shopping, to bank transactions or exchanging sensitive information. Those high-level protocols can naturally be only as secure as the authentication or encryption schemes underneath. Moreover, on a more detailed level, those schemes can also at best inherit the security of their underlying primitives. While widespread standards in modern symmetric-key cryptography, such as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), have shown to resist analysis until now, closer analysis and design of related primitives can deepen our understanding. The present thesis consists of two parts that portray six contributions: The first part considers block-cipher cryptanalysis of the round-reduced AES, the AES-based tweakable block cipher Kiasu-BC, and TNT. The second part studies the design, analysis, and implementation of provably secure authenticated encryption schemes. In general, cryptanalysis aims at finding distinguishable properties in the output distribution. Block ciphers are a core primitive of symmetric-key cryptography which are useful for the construction of various higher-level schemes, ranging from authentication, encryption, authenticated encryption up to integrity protection. Therefore, their analysis is crucial to secure cryptographic schemes at their lowest level. With rare exceptions, block-cipher cryptanalysis employs a systematic strategy of investigating known attack techniques. Modern proposals are expected to be evaluated against these techniques. The considerable effort for evaluation, however, demands efforts not only from the designers but also from external sources. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is one of the most widespread block ciphers nowadays. Therefore, it is naturally an interesting target for further analysis. Tweakable block ciphers augment the usual inputs of a secret key and a public plaintext by an additional public input called tweak. Among various proposals through the previous decade, this thesis identifies Kiasu-BC as a noteworthy attempt to construct a tweakable block cipher that is very close to the AES. Hence, its analysis intertwines closely with that of the AES and illustrates the impact of the tweak on its security best. Moreover, it revisits a generic tweakable block cipher Tweak-and-Tweak (TNT) and its instantiation based on the round-reduced AES. The first part investigates the security of the AES against several forms of differential cryptanalysis, developing distinguishers on four to six (out of ten) rounds of AES. For Kiasu-BC, it exploits the additional freedom in the tweak to develop two forms of differential-based attacks: rectangles and impossible differentials. The results on Kiasu-BC consider an additional round compared to attacks on the (untweaked) AES. The authors of TNT had provided an initial security analysis that still left a gap between provable guarantees and attacks. Our analysis conducts a considerable step towards closing this gap. For TNT-AES - an instantiation of TNT built upon the AES round function - this thesis further shows how to transform our distinguisher into a key-recovery attack. Many applications require the simultaneous authentication and encryption of transmitted data. Authenticated encryption (AE) schemes provide both properties. Modern AE schemes usually demand a unique public input called nonce that must not repeat. Though, this requirement cannot always be guaranteed in practice. As part of a remedy, misuse-resistant and robust AE tries to reduce the impact of occasional misuses. However, robust AE considers not only the potential reuse of nonces. Common authenticated encryption also demanded that the entire ciphertext would have to be buffered until the authentication tag has been successfully verified. In practice, this approach is difficult to ensure since the setting may lack the resources for buffering the messages. Moreover, robustness guarantees in the case of misuse are valuable features. The second part of this thesis proposes three authenticated encryption schemes: RIV, SIV-x, and DCT. RIV is robust against nonce misuse and the release of unverified plaintexts. Both SIV-x and DCT provide high security independent from nonce repetitions. As the core under SIV-x, this thesis revisits the proof of a highly secure parallel MAC, PMAC-x, revises its details, and proposes SIV-x as a highly secure authenticated encryption scheme. Finally, DCT is a generic approach to have n-bit secure deterministic AE but without the need of expanding the ciphertext-tag string by more than n bits more than the plaintext. From its first part, this thesis aims to extend the understanding of the (1) cryptanalysis of round-reduced AES, as well as the understanding of (2) AES-like tweakable block ciphers. From its second part, it demonstrates how to simply extend known approaches for (3) robust nonce-based as well as (4) highly secure deterministic authenticated encryption. N2 - Die moderne Kryptographie hat sich zu einem oft unsichtbaren aber essentiellen Teil unserer alltäglichen Kommunikation entwickelt. Protokolle für sichere Authentisierung und Verschlüsselung schützen uns als Gesellschaft in einer Vielzahl von Lebensbereichen, sei es in Nachrichten oder Online-Einkäufen, bis hin zum Schutz von Banktransaktionen oder behördlicher Kommunikation. In den meisten Fällen ist dabei die Sicherstellung von Authentizität und Verschlüsselung von entscheidender Bedeutung. Wie eine Kette ihre Stärke aus den einzelnen Gliedern bezieht, kann jedes kryptographisches Protokoll jedoch nur so sicher sein wie seine darunterliegenden Verfahren und Primitive. Mit den offenen Nominierungswettbewerben haben sich heutige Standards wie zum Beispiel der Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) für Blockchiffren oder der Galois/Counter Mode für authentisierte Verschlüsselung etabliert. Zudem haben sie durch vergangenen zwei Jahrzehnte an Analyse durch die kryptographische Forschergemeinschaft ein hohes Maß an Vertrauen erhalten. Insbesondere in der symmetrischen Kryptographie, die hohen Wert auf Effizienz der Verfahren legt, werden vorwiegend systematische Analysetechniken eingesetzt. Darum ist der Prozess der Verständnisentwicklung und -gewinnung nie abgeschlossen, sondern Bedarf neuer Blickwinkel und Ideen. Als die Kernkomponenten der täglichen Internetkommunikation sind dabei Blockchiffren und Verfahren zur authentisierten Verschlüsselung dabei von besonderem Interesse. Diese Dissertation gliedert sich in zwei Hauptteile die insgesamt sechs Beiträge beinhalten. Der erste Teil ist der Analyse von AES-basierten (tweakable) Blockchiffren gewidmet. Der zweite Teil stellt neue Konstruktionen für robuste authentisierte Verschlüsselung mit hohen Sicherheitsgarantien vor. Die Kryptanalyse versucht nicht-ideale Eigenschaften in den Ausgaben kryptographischer Systeme zu finden. Blockchiffren als wichtige Grundbausteine der symmetrischen Kryptographie sind hierbei von besonderem Interesse, da sie die Grundlage für die Konstruktion sicherer Verfahren für Authentisierung oder Verschlüsselung darstellen. Diese wiederum schützen in Protokollen in einer Vielzahl von Anwendungen uns in unserem Alltag. Die Analyse von Blockchiffren als Grundoperationen ist daher essentiell um die Sicherheit darauf aufbauender Verfahren verstehen zu können. Der AES ist wahrscheinlich die derzeit am weitesten verbreitete moderne Blockchiffre, was ihn allein bereits zum hochinteressanten Studienobjekt macht. Tweakable Blockchiffren ergänzen ihre klassischen Vorbilder um einen zusätzlichen öffentlichen Input, den Tweak, was insbesondere in der jüngeren Vergangenheit zu effizienteren oder sichereren Verfahren geführt hat. AES-basierte Konstruktionen versuchen von der Vielzahl der existierenden bekannten Eigenschaften des AES und seiner Effizienz zu profitieren. Die Rolle des Tweaks für die Sicherheit ist allerdings nicht völlig verstanden. Ihre Analyse ist daher von besonderem Interesse. Der erste Teil dieser Thesis stellt eine neue Sichtweise der differentiellen Analyse von vier bis sechs Runden AES vor. Im weiteren Verlauf betrachtet sie differentielle Angriffe auf Kiasu-BC, eine Tweakable Blockchiffre auf Basis des AES, die versucht, so nah wie möglich am Design des AES zu bleiben. Somit kann ihre Analyse die durch den Tweak hervorgerufenen Unterschiede genauer beleuchten als das bei dedizierten Konstruktion möglich wäre. Abschließend analysiert der erste Teil Tweak-and-Tweak (TNT), eine generische Transformation einer klassischen in eine tweakable Blockchiffre, sowie ihre Instanz TNT-AES. Durch einen besseren Sicherheitsbeweis von TNT schließt sie die Lücke (mit Ausnahme eines logarithmischen Faktors) zwischen ihrer vorher bewiesenen Sicherheit und bekannten Angriffen. Eine Vielzahl von Anwendungen für Authentisierung oder Verschlüsselung benötigen beide Eigenschaften simultan. Darum sind Verfahren für die Authentisierte Verschlüsselung (AE Schemes) aus dem täglichen Gebrauch nicht mehr wegzudenken. Bis vor einigen Jahren waren die Anforderungen an den Gebrauch von AE Schemes allerdings sehr restriktiv: Moderne AE Schemes erfordern in der Regel für jede zu verschlüsselnde Nachricht einen Input der sich nicht wiederholen darf, eine Nonce. Nonces sind allgemein akzeptiert und sinnvoll - ihre Einmaligkeit kann jedoch nicht über alle Anwendungsumgebungen hinweg garantiert werden. Für viele Konstruktionen bedeutet eine Verletzung der Anforderungen allerdings dass keinerlei Sicherheit mehr gewährleistet werden kann. Robuste AE Schemes wurden eingeführt um den Schaden möglichst auch im Fall von Nonce-Wiederholungen Sicherheit zu garantieren. Derartige Verfahren bedenken darüberhinaus auch den Fall, dass ungültige Klartexte unbeabsichtigt nach außen gelangen, was insbesondere in Umgebungen relevant ist, in denen sie nicht bis zur erfolgreichen Verifikation gespeichert werden können. Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt drei blockchiffrenbasierte Verfahren für misuse-resiliente authentisierte Verschlüsselung vor: RIV, SIV-x und DCT. RIV bietet Robustheit gegen Nonce-Wiederholungen wie auch gegen die Fälle in denen Informationen über ungültige Entschlüsselungen nach außen gelangen. SIV-x und DCT bieten sehr hohe Sicherheitsgarantien ohne auf Nonces angewiesen zu sein, jeweils basierend auf tweakable Blockchiffren. Im ersten Teil möchte die vorliegende Arbeit zum Einen das Verständnis der differentiellen Sicherheit des rundenreduzierten AES hin zu Unterscheidungsangriffen mit extrem kleinen, aber dennoch signifikanten Differenzen ergänzen. Zum Anderen erweitert dieser Teil die Analyse AES-ähnlicher Tweakable Blockchiffren. Der zweite Teil ergänzt zum Einen mit RIV das Portfolio robuster authentisierter Verschlüsselungsverfahren und zeigt wie diese effizient implementiert werden können. Zum Anderen zeigt er mit SIV-x und DCT, wie deterministische authentisierte Verschlüsselung mit hohen Sicherheitsanforderungen mit zwei Iterationen von denen nur eine pseudozufällig sein muss realisiert werden können.

In this paper, we apply the variational principle/weighted residual method based on nonlocal operator method for the derivation of nonlocal forms for elasticity, thin plate, gradient elasticity, electro-magneto-elasticity and phase-field fracture method. The nonlocal governing equations are expressed as an integral form on support and dual-support. The first example shows that the nonlocal elasticity has the same form as dual-horizon non-ordinary state-based peridynamics. The derivation is simple and general and it can convert efficiently many local physical models into their corresponding nonlocal forms. In addition, a criterion based on the instability of the nonlocal gradient is proposed for the fracture modelling in linear elasticity. Several numerical examples are presented to validate nonlocal elasticity and the nonlocal thin plate.

This study aims to qualitatively investigate the personalized flows using two methods of visualization: (1) schlieren imaging using a large schlieren mirror and (2) thermography using an infrared camera. While the schlieren imaging was used to render the velocity and mass transport of the supplied flow, thermography was implemented to visualize the air temperature distribution induced by the PV. Both studies were conducted using a thermal manikin to simulate an occupant facing a PV outlet. As a reference, the flow supplied by an axial fan and a cased axial fan was visualized with the schlieren system as well and compared to the flow supplied by PV. Schlieren visualization results indicate that the steady, low-turbulence flow supplied by PV was able to penetrate the thermal convective boundary layer encasing the manikin's body, providing clean air for inhalation. Contrarily, the axial fan diffused the supplied air over a large target area with high turbulence intensity; it only disturbed the convective boundary layer rather than destroying it. The cased fan supplied a flow with a reduced target area which allowed supplying more air into the breathing zone compared to the fan. The results of thermography visualization showed that the supplied cool air from PV penetrated the corona-shaped thermal boundary layer. Furthermore, the supplied air cooled the surface temperature of the face, which indicates the large impact of PV on local thermal sensation and comfort.

A common activity in this context is to move from one location to the next as a group to explore the environment together. The simplest solution to realize these multi-user navigation processes is to provide each participant with a technique for individual navigation. However, this approach entails some potentially undesirable consequences such as the execution of a similar navigation sequence by each participant, a regular need for coordination within the group, and, related to this, the risk of losing each other during the navigation process. To overcome these issues, this thesis performs research on group navigation techniques that move group members together through a virtual environment. The presented work was guided by four overarching research questions that address the quality requirements for group navigation techniques, the differences between collocated and distributed settings, the scalability of group navigation, and the suitability of individual and group navigation for various scenarios. This thesis approaches these questions by introducing a general conceptual framework as well as the specification of central requirements for the design of group navigation techniques. The design, implementation, and evaluation of corresponding group navigation techniques demonstrate the applicability of the proposed framework. As a first step, this thesis presents ideas for the extension of the short-range teleportation metaphor, also termed jumping, for multiple users. It derives general quality requirements for the comprehensibility of the group jumping process and introduces a corresponding technique for two collocated users. The results of two user studies indicate that sickness symptoms are not affected by user roles during group jumping and confirm improved planning accuracy for the navigator, increased spatial awareness for the passenger, and reduced cognitive load for both user roles. Next, this thesis explores the design space of group navigation techniques in distributed virtual environments. It presents a conceptual framework to systematize the design decisions for group navigation techniques based on Tuckman's model of small-group development and introduces the idea of virtual formation adjustments as part of the navigation process. A quantitative user study demonstrates that the corresponding extension of Multi-Ray Jumping for distributed dyads leads to more efficient travel sequences and reduced workload. The results of a qualitative expert review confirm these findings and provide further insights regarding the complementarity of individual and group navigation in distributed virtual environments. Then, this thesis investigates the navigation of larger groups of distributed users in the context of guided museum tours and establishes three central requirements for (scalable) group navigation techniques. These should foster the awareness of ongoing navigation activities as well as facilitate the predictability of their consequences for all group members (Comprehensibility), assist the group with avoiding collisions in the virtual environment (Obstacle Avoidance), and support placing the group in a meaningful spatial formation for the joint observation and discussion of objects (View Optimization). The work suggests a new technique to address these requirements and reports on its evaluation in an initial usability study with groups of five to ten (partially simulated) users. The results indicate easy learnability for navigators and high comprehensibility for passengers. Moreover, they also provide valuable insights for the development of group navigation techniques for even larger groups. Finally, this thesis embeds the previous contributions in a comprehensive literature overview and emphasizes the need to study larger, more heterogeneous, and more diverse group compositions including the related social factors that affect group dynamics. In summary, the four major research contributions of this thesis are as follows: - the framing of group navigation as a specific instance of Tuckman's model of small-group development - the derivation of central requirements for effective group navigation techniques beyond common quality factors known from single-user navigation - the introduction of virtual formation adjustments during group navigation and their integration into concrete group navigation techniques - evidence that appropriate pre-travel information and virtual formation adjustments lead to more efficient travel sequences for groups and lower workloads for both navigators and passengers Overall, the research of this thesis confirms that group navigation techniques are a valuable addition to the portfolio of interaction techniques in multi-user virtual reality systems. The conceptual framework, the derived quality requirements, and the development of novel group navigation techniques provide effective guidance for application developers and inform future research in this area. N2 - Multi-User-Virtual-Reality-Systeme ermöglichen es lokalen und räumlich getrennten Benutzer*innen, kollaborative Aktivitäten in einer immersiven virtuellen Umgebung auszuüben. Eine grundlegende Aufgabe in diesem Zusammenhang ist die Navigation von einem Ort zum nächsten als Gruppe, um die Umgebung gemeinsam zu erkunden. Die einfachste Lösung zur Realisierung dieser Mehrbenutzer*innen-Navigationsprozesse besteht darin, jedem*jeder Teilnehmer*in eine Technik zur individuellen Navigation zur Verfügung zu stellen. Dieser Ansatz führt jedoch zu einigen potenziell unerwünschten Begleiterscheinungen, wie zum Beispiel der Ausführung einer ähnlichen Navigationssequenz durch jede*n Teilnehmer*in, einem regelmäßigen Koordinationsbedarf innerhalb der Gruppe und damit verbunden der Gefahr, sich während des Navigationsprozesses zu verlieren. Zur Überwindung dieser Problematiken erforscht die vorliegende Arbeit Gruppennavigationstechniken, die alle Gruppenmitglieder gemeinsam durch eine virtuelle Umgebung bewegen. Die vorgestellten Beiträge wurden von vier übergreifenden Forschungsfragen geleitet, welche sich mit Qualitätsanforderungen an Gruppennavigationstechniken, den Unterschieden zwischen lokaler und räumlich getrennter Teilnahme, der Skalierbarkeit von Gruppennavigation und der Eignung von Einzel- und Gruppennavigationstechniken für verschiedene Szenarien befassen. Die vorliegende Arbeit nähert sich diesen Fragen durch die Einführung eines allgemeinen konzeptionellen Frameworks sowie die Spezifikation zentraler Anforderungen an den Entwurf von Gruppennavigationstechniken. Die Entwicklung, Implementierung und Evaluation entsprechender Gruppennavigationstechniken demonstrieren die Anwendbarkeit des vorgeschlagenen Frameworks. In einem ersten Schritt stellt diese Arbeit Ideen zur Erweiterung der Teleportationsmetapher über kurze Distanzen, auch Jumping genannt, für mehrere Benutzer*innen vor. Sie leitet allgemeine Qualitätsanforderungen zur Verständlichkeit des Gruppen-Jumpings ab und präsentiert eine entsprechende Technik für zwei lokale Benutzer*innen. Die Ergebnisse zweier Benutzungsstudien zeigen keine Einflüsse des aktiven oder passiven Jumpings auf Symptome der Simulatorkrankheit und bestätigen eine erhöhte Planungsgenauigkeit für den*die Navigator*in, ein verbessertes räumliches Verständnis für den*die Passagier*in und eine reduzierte kognitive Belastung für beide Rollen. Danach untersucht diese Arbeit den Gestaltungsraum von Gruppennavigationstechniken in verteilten virtuellen Umgebungen. Basierend auf Tuckmans Modell der Kleingruppenentwicklung stellt sie ein konzeptionelles Framework zur Systematisierung der Designentscheidungen für Gruppennavigationstechniken vor und führt die Idee der virtuellen Formationsanpassungen als Teil des Navigationsprozesses ein. Eine quantitative Benutzungsstudie zeigt, dass eine entsprechende Erweiterung des Multi-Ray Jumpings für räumlich getrennte Dyaden zu effizienteren Navigationsabläufen und geringeren wahrgenommenen Arbeitslasten führt. Die Ergebnisse eines qualitativen Expert-Reviews bestätigen diese Erkenntnisse und liefern weitere Einsichten bezüglich der Komplementarität von Einzel- und Gruppennavigation in verteilten virtuellen Umgebungen. Anschließend untersucht diese Arbeit die Navigation größerer Gruppen räumlich getrennter Benutzer*innen im Kontext von Museumsführungen und stellt drei zentrale Anforderungen für (skalierbare) Gruppennavigationstechniken auf. Diese sollen das Bewusstsein für laufende Navigationsaktivitäten fördern sowie die Vorhersehbarkeit ihrer Konsequenzen für alle Gruppenmitglieder erleichtern (Verständlichkeit), der Gruppe bei der Vermeidung von Kollisionen in der virtuellen Umgebung assistieren (Hindernisvermeidung) und die Platzierung der Gruppe in einer sinnvollen räumlichen Formation für die gemeinsame Betrachtung und Diskussion von Objekten unterstützen (Blickoptimierung). Die Arbeit stellt eine neue Technik zur Adressierung dieser Anforderungen vor, welche in einer initialen Usability-Studie mit Gruppen von fünf bis zehn (teilweise simulierten) Benutzer*innen evaluiert wurde. Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine einfache Erlernbarkeit für den*die Navigator*in und eine hohe Verständlichkeit für Passagier*innen. Darüber hinaus liefern sie wertvolle Erkenntnisse zur Entwicklung von Gruppennavigationstechniken für noch größere Gruppenstärken. Abschließend bettet diese Arbeit die bisherigen Beiträge in einen umfassenden Literaturüberblick ein und betont den Bedarf zukünftiger Forschungsarbeiten zu größeren, heterogeneren und diverseren Gruppenkompositionen. Dies beinhaltet ebenfalls die Betrachtung der damit verbundenen sozialen Faktoren sowie deren Einfluss auf die Gruppendynamik. Zusammengefasst lauten die vier wichtigsten Forschungsbeiträge dieser Arbeit wie folgt: - die Einordnung von Gruppennavigationsprozessen als spezifische Instanz von Tuckmans Modell der Kleingruppenentwicklung - die Ableitung zentraler Anforderungen an effektive Gruppennavigationstechniken zusätzlich zu aus Einzelnavigationskontexten bekannten Qualitätsfaktoren - die Einführung von virtuellen Formationsanpassungen als Teil der Gruppennavigation und deren Integration in konkrete Gruppennavigationstechniken - Nachweise, dass geeignet gewählte Vorschaumechanismen sowie virtuelle Formationsanpassungen zu effizienteren Navigationssequenzen für die Gruppe und geringeren wahrgenommenen Arbeitslasten für Navigator*innen und Passagier*innen führen Insgesamt bestätigen die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit, dass Gruppennavigationstechniken eine wertvolle Ergänzung zum Portfolio der Interaktionstechniken in Multi-User-Virtual-Reality-Systemen sind. Das konzeptionelle Framework, die abgeleiteten Qualitätsanforderungen und die Entwicklung entsprechender Gruppennavigationstechniken bilden eine relevante Wissensbasis für Anwendungsentwickler*innen und informieren zukünftige Forschung in diesem Gebiet.

The wide-ranging capabilities and promises of BIM have led to the strong perception among researchers and practitioners that it is an indispensable technology. Consequently, it has become the frequent subject of science and research. Meanwhile, many countries, especially the developed ones, have committed themselves to applying the technology extensively. Increasing productivity is the most common and frequently cited reason for that. However, both technology developers and adopters are oblivious to the potentials of BIM in addressing critical challenges in the construction sector, such as corruption. This particularly would be significant in developing countries like Ethiopia, where its problems and effects are acute. Studies reveal that bribery and corruption have long pervaded the construction industry worldwide. The complex and fragmented nature of the sector provides an environment for corruption. The Ethiopian construction sector is not immune from this epidemic reality. In fact, it is regarded as one of the most vulnerable sectors owing to varying socio-economic and political factors. Since 2015, Ethiopia has started adopting BIM, yet without clear goals and strategies. As a result, the potential of BIM for combating concrete problems of the sector remains untapped. To this end, this dissertation does pioneering work by showing how collaboration and coordination features of the technology contribute to minimizing the opportunities for corruption. Tracing loopholes, otherwise, would remain complex and ineffective in the traditional documentation processes. Proceeding from this anticipation, this thesis brings up two primary questions: what are areas and risks of corruption in case of the Ethiopian public construction projects; and how could BIM be leveraged to mitigate these risks? To tackle these and other secondary questions, the research employs a mixed-method approach. The selected main research strategies are Survey, Grounded Theory (GT) and Archival Study. First, the author disseminates an online questionnaire among Ethiopian construction engineering professionals to pinpoint areas of vulnerability to corruption. 155 responses are compiled and scrutinized quantitatively. Then, a semi-structured in-depth interview is conducted with 20 senior professionals, primarily to comprehend opportunities for and risks of corruption in those identified highly vulnerable project stages and decision points. At the same time, open interviews (consultations) are held with 14 informants to be aware of state of the construction documentation, BIM and loopholes for corruption in the country. Consequently, these qualitative data are analyzed utilizing the principles of GT, heat/risk mapping and Social Network Analysis (SNA). The risk mapping assists the researcher in the course of prioritizing corruption risks; whilst through SNA, methodically, it is feasible to identify key actors/stakeholders in the corruption venture. Based on the generated research data, the author constructs a [substantive] grounded theory around the elements of corruption in the Ethiopian public construction sector. This theory, later, guides the subsequent strategic proposition of BIM. Finally, 85 public construction related cases are also analyzed systematically to substantiate and confirm previous findings. By ways of these multiple research endeavors that is based, first and foremost, on the triangulation of qualitative and quantitative data analysis, the author conveys a number of key findings. First, estimations, tender document preparation and evaluation, construction material as well as quality control and additional work orders are found to be the most vulnerable stages in the design, tendering and construction phases respectively. Second, middle management personnel of contractors and clients, aided by brokers, play most critical roles in corrupt transactions within the prevalent corruption network. Third, grand corruption persists in the sector, attributed to the fact that top management and higher officials entertain their overriding power, supported by the lack of project audits and accountability. Contrarily, individuals at operation level utilize intentional and unintentional 'errors’ as an opportunity for corruption. In light of these findings, two conceptual BIM-based risk mitigation strategies are prescribed: active and passive automation of project audits; and the monitoring of project information throughout projects’ value chain. These propositions are made in reliance on BIM’s present dimensional capabilities and the promises of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD). Moreover, BIM’s synchronous potentials with other technologies such as Information and Communication Technology (ICT), and Radio Frequency technologies are topics which received a treatment. All these arguments form the basis for the main thesis of this dissertation, that BIM is able to mitigate corruption risks in the Ethiopian public construction sector. The discourse on the skepticisms about BIM that would stem from the complex nature of corruption and strategic as well as technological limitations of BIM is also illuminated and complemented by this work. Thus, the thesis uncovers possible research gaps and lays the foundation for further studies.

Catenary poles are used worldwide to support overhead power lines for electric trains. The performance of the catenary poles has an extensive influence on the integrity of the train systems and, consequently, the connected human services. It became a must nowadays to develop SHM systems that provide the instantaneous status of catenary poles in- service, making the decision-making processes to keep or repair the damaged poles more feasible. This study develops a data-driven, model-free approach for status monitoring of cantilever structures, focusing on pre-stressed, spun-cast ultrahigh-strength concrete catenary poles installed along high-speed train tracks. The pro-posed approach evaluates multiple damage features in an unfied damage index, which leads to straightforward interpretation and comparison of the output. Besides, it distinguishes between multiple damage scenarios of the poles, either the ones caused by material degradation of the concrete or by the cracks that can be propagated during the life span of the given structure. Moreover, using a logistic function to classify the integrity of structure avoids the expensive learning step in the existing damage detection approaches, namely, using the modern machine and deep learning methods. The findings of this study look very promising when applied to other types of cantilever structures, such as the poles that support the power transmission lines, antenna masts, chimneys, and wind turbines.

These capsules are embedded in the cementitious matrix during concrete mixing. When the cracks appear, the embedded capsules which are placed along the path of incoming crack are fractured and then release of healing agents in the vicinity of damage. The materials of capsules need to be designed in a way that they should be able to break with small deformation, so the internal fluid can be released to seal the crack. This study focuses on computational modeling of fracture in encapsulation-based selfhealing concrete. The numerical model of 2D and 3D with randomly packed aggreates and capsules have been developed to analyze fracture mechanism that plays a significant role in the fracture probability of capsules and consequently the self-healing process. The capsules are assumed to be made of Poly Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) and the potential cracks are represented by pre-inserted cohesive elements with tension and shear softening laws along the element boundaries of the mortar matrix, aggregates, capsules, and at the interfaces between these phases. The effects of volume fraction, core-wall thickness ratio, and mismatch fracture properties of capsules on the load carrying capacity of self-healing concrete and fracture probability of the capsules are investigated. The output of this study will become valuable tool to assist not only the experimentalists but also the manufacturers in designing an appropriate capsule material for self-healing concrete.

Against the Use of Risk Assessment Algorithms at Sentencing in the US Criminal Justice System JF - Philosophy & Technology N2 - In this article, I show why it is necessary to abolish the use of predictive algorithms in the US criminal justice system at sentencing. After presenting the functioning of these algorithms in their context of emergence, I offer three arguments to demonstrate why their abolition is imperative. First, I show that sentencing based on predictive algorithms induces a process of rewriting the temporality of the judged individual, flattening their life into a present inescapably doomed by its past. Second, I demonstrate that recursive processes, comprising predictive algorithms and the decisions based on their predictions, systematically suppress outliers and progressively transform reality to match predictions. In my third and final argument, I show that decisions made on the basis of predictive algorithms actively perform a biopolitical understanding of justice as management and modulation of risks. In such a framework, justice becomes a means to maintain a perverse social homeostasis that systematically exposes disenfranchised Black and Brown populations to risk.

The actual damage mechanism is still not completely understood. Two recent damage theories—the glue spall theory and the cryogenic suction theory—offer plausible, but conflicting explanations for the salt frost scaling mechanism. The present study deals with the cryogenic suction theory, which assumes that freezing concrete can take up unfrozen brine from a partly frozen deicing solution during salt frost attack. According to the model hypothesis, the resulting saturation of the concrete surface layer intensifies the ice formation in this layer and causes salt frost scaling. In this study an experimental technique was developed that makes it possible to quantify to which extent brine uptake can increase ice formation in hardened cement paste (used as a model material for concrete). The experiments were carried out with low temperature differential scanning calorimetry, where specimens were subjected to freeze–thaw cycles while being in contact with NaCl brine. Results showed that the ice content in the specimens increased with subsequent freeze–thaw cycles due to the brine uptake at temperatures below 0 °C. The ability of the hardened cement paste to bind chlorides from the absorbed brine at the same time affected the freezing/melting behavior of the pore solution and the magnitude of the ice content.

However, since the quantity and quality of naturally grown algae vary widely, their exploitability is reduced – especially for producers in high-priced markets. Moreover, the expansion of marine or shore-based cultivation systems is unlikely in Europe, since promising sites either lie in fishing zones, recreational areas, or natural reserves. The aim was therefore to develop a closed photobioreactor system enabling full control of abiotic environmental parameters and an effective reconditioning of the cultivation medium in order to produce marine macroalgae at sites distant from the shore. To assess the feasibility and functionality of the chosen technological concept, a prototypal plant has been implemented in central Germany – a site distant from the sea. Using a newly developed, submersible LED light source, cultivation experiments with Ulva intestinalis led to growth rates of 7.72 ± 0.04 % day−1 in a cultivation cycle of 28 days. Based on the space demand of the production system, this results in fresh mass productivity of 3.0 kg m−2, respectively, of 1.1 kg m−2 per year. Also considering the ratio of biomass to energy input amounting to 2.76 g kWh−1, significant future improvements of the developed photobioreactor system should include the optimization of growth parameters, and the reduction of the system’s overall energy demand.

This scenario results in a myriad of Apps providing information regarding touristic destinations, including those with a cultural profile, such as those dedicated to UNESCO World Heritage Sites (WHS). However, not all of the Apps have the same efficiency. In order to have a successful app, its development must consider usability aspects and features aligned with reliable content. Despite the guidelines for mobile usability being broadly available, they are generic, and none of them concentrates specifically into cultural heritage places, especially on those placed in an open-air scenario. This research aims to fulfil this literature gap and discusses how to adequate and develop specific guidelines for a better outdoor WHS experience. It uses an empirical approach applied to an open-air WHS city: Weimar and its Bauhaus and Classical Weimar sites. In order to build a new set of guidelines applied for open-air WHS, this research used a systematic approach to compare literature-based guidelines to industry-based ones (based on affordances), extracted from the available Apps dedicated to WHS set in Germany. The instructions compiled from both sources have been comparatively tested by using two built prototypes from the distinctive guidelines, creating a set of recommendations collecting the best approach from both sources, plus suggesting new ones the evaluation. N2 - Der technische Fortschritt und der Zugang dazu bieten ein ertragreiches Szenario für die Innovation und Entwicklung mobiler Anwendungen (Apps). Daraus ist eine Vielzahl von zu Verfügung stehenden Apps entstanden, die Informationen über touristische Reiseziele bereitstellen, insbesondere solche mit einem kulturellen Hintergrund, etwa die, die zum UNESCO Welterbe/Weltkulturebe (auf Englisch WHS – World Heritage Sites, fotan so genannt in dieser Arteit) gehören. Allerdings haben nicht alle Apps die gleiche Effizienz. Um eine erfolgreiche App entwickeln zu können, sollten gleichzeitig die Benutzerfreundlichkeit der Aspekte und Funktionen in Betracht gezogen werden, als auch Zuverlässigkeit ihrer Inhalte. Obwohl die Richtlinien für eine mobile Benutzerfreundlichkeit weit verbreitet sind, sind diese jedoch generisch. Keine Richtlinie ist eindeutig auf Orte des Kulturerbes zugeschnitten, schon gar nicht auf Standorte, die sich im Freien befinden. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, diese Literaturlücke zu schließen und gleichzeitig nahe zu bringen, wie bestimmte Richtlinien angepasst und ausgebaut werden könnten, um bessere WHS-Erlebnisse im Freien zu schaffen. Die Arbeit geht empirisch vor am Beispiel der deutschen Stadt Weimar, die mit ihren Altstadt- und Bauhaus-Standorten als Freiluft-WHS gilt. Deutschland ist das fünftbedeutsamste Land der UNESCO-Liste und bekannt für sein technologisches Profil und der Zugang dazu. Dieses Land als geeignete Umgebung für den empirischen Ansatz zu wählen ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt, um Erfahrungen zu sammeln für innovative Projekte, die mit Apps das Kulturerbe erschließen. Um eine Reihe neuer Richtlinien für Freiluft-WHS (auf Englisch: Open-Air WHS) aufstellen zu können, wurden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit Richtlinien aus akademischen Quellen mit branchenüblichen Richtlinien verglichen, gewonnen aus einer umfangreichen Auszug verfügbarer Apps, die sich den WHS in Deutschland widmen. Im branchenüblichen Ansatz wurden WHS-bezogene Apps ausgewählt, die auf dem deutschen App-Markt erhältlich sind (für iOS- und Android-Geräte). Deren Eigenschaften und Gebrauch wurden aus der Nutzersicht betrachtet. Daraus ließen sich Gemeinsamkeiten ableiten innerhalb der aktuellen Funktionen und Tools, mit denen WHS beworben werden. Die Analyse förderte Richtlinien hervor fand aus der Layout-, Navigations-, Design- und der Inhaltsperspektive. Daraus wurde eine Prototyp-App erstellt, die dem in der Branche verzeichneten Stand der Technik entspricht. Während die Richtlinien aus der Branchenübersicht einen Beobachtungsansatz der Leistungen verfolgten, bezogen die aus der Literaturrecherche gewonnenen Richtlinien einen systematischen Ansatz des akademischen Materials. Der literaturbasierte Ansatz wurde aus Veröffentlichungen zur Benutzerfreundlichkeit mobiler Apps gewonnen, die in Forschungsdatenbanken erhältlich sind. Zusätzlich wurden in führenden Unternehmen für die Entwicklung von mobilen Betriebssystemen (iOS und Android) bereits vorhandene Modelle zur Nutzerfreundlichkeit sowie offizielle Richtlinien einbezogen, die unterschiedliche Ansätze sowie Ansichten für das Design mobiler Schnittstellen verbinden und kombinieren und die für WHS genutzt werden könnten. Unter Rücksichtnahme der Vielfalt der Besucherprofile in Weimar wurden auch Studien über Nutzeroberflächen für ältere Nutzer eingeschlossen. Obwohl die Leitlinien sich nicht auf didaktische Funktionen konzentrieren, wurden auch Studien über das mobile Lernen in der Studie mitaufgenommen, sofern die Nutzeroberfläche Teil des Studienziels war. Diese Entscheidung wurde getroffen, weil die Stadt Weimar auch jugendliche Studenten als Besucher hat, die die historischen Sehenswürdigkeiten der Stadt besuchen und kennenlernen. Allgemein konzentrierte sich diese Ausarbeitung auf klare Anweisungen, die in Richtlinien umgesetzt werden könnten. Die Analyse beschränkte sich jedoch nicht auf die Auswahlliste der Studienobjekte und wurde extrapoliert, unter Berücksichtigung relevanter Referenzen, die in den für die Stichprobe ausgewählten Veröffentlichungen zitiert wurden. Wann immer eine Leitlinie oder Empfehlung gefunden werden konnte, wurde diese, verfahrensgemäß in eine Tabelle eingefügt, einer ähnlichen Struktur folgend zu den aus der Übersicht der App-Industrie gewonnenen Richtlinien. Um den Erkenntnissen der Literaturrecherche zu entsprechen, wurden neue Kategorien hinzugefügt. Im Großen und Ganzen bestätigten einige Richtlinien des literarischen Ansatzes die Anweisungen des branchenorientierten Ansatzes, andere widersprachen diesen. Dadurch konnte ein neuer Satz von Leitlinien entstehen, die gegeneinander getestet wurden. Der Inhalt beider Prototypen (branchen- und literaturbasiert) wurden ausgearbeitet, um das WHS in Weimar anzusprechen. Dabei wurden Inhalte abgerufen, die auf der offiziellen touristischen Website der Stadt und in der größten Kulturstiftung Weimars, der Klassik Stiftung, verfügbar sind. Die Nutzung zweier verschiedener einfache Prototypen bot die Möglichkeit, auch andere Funktionen zu testen wie z. B. verschiedene Arten der Anzeige von Karten und Inhalten. Zur Überprüfung und Gegenüberstellung der verschiedenen Leitlinien, wurden ein aufgabenbasierter Test und eine vergleichende Bewertungsumfrage durchgeführt. Tester aus verschiedenen Altersgruppen führten in beiden Prototypen eine Reihe vordefinierter Aufgaben aus und beantworteten einen Fragebogen, wobei die in beiden Versionen vorgestellten Funktionen und Formate verglichen werden konnten. Die Fragen sollten anhand eine Auswahl vordefinierter Antworten von Nutzern beantwortet werden, ideal für eine statistische Auswertung, insbesondere zum Thema Benutzerzufriedenheit. Auch offene Fragen, zur Leistung persönliche Beiträge der Tester, wurden angeboten. Diese Methode war ausschlaggebend dafür, beide Richtliniensätze (Industrie vs. Literaturrecherche) gegeneinander zu vergleichen und zu analysieren, So konnte ein idealer Ansatz gefunden werden für Richtlinien von Apps, die sich mit Welterbestätten unter freiem Himmel befassen. Auch weitere Empfehlungen, die sich aus der Bewertung ergaben, konnten hinzugefügt werden. Das Ergebnis führt zu einem umfassendem Satz von Richtlinien, die in zukünftigen touristischen Open-Air-Apps angewandt werden können, die sich mit Weltkulturerbestätten befassen.

Windenergieanlagen aus denkmalkundlicher Perspektive N2 - Knapp 30.000 Windenergieanlagen zwischen Nordsee und Alpen lassen unübersehbar erkennen, dass sich unser Energiesystem in einer umfassenden Transformation befindet. Allenthalben erfährt diese Entwicklung eine breite und kontroverse Rezeption und auch in der Denkmalpflege werden Windenergieanlagen aufgrund ihrer mitunter erheblichen Auswirkungen auf die Landschaft noch überwiegend als Störung wahrgenommen. Diese Arbeit nimmt dagegen die historische Entwicklung in den Blick und plädiert dafür, Windenergieanlagen als bedeutendes Kulturerbe zu verstehen. Angesichts des Voranschreitens der Energiewende wird angenommen, dass gerade älteren Modellen als baulichen Zeugnissen umfangreicher energiepolitischer Veränderungen seit den 1970er Jahren eine hohe Bedeutung zugeschrieben werden kann. Daher besteht das Ziel darin, Windenergieanlagen herauszuarbeiten, welche als hervorragende Zeugnisse der Entwicklung der Windenergienutzung in Deutschland zu bewerten sind. Zur Annäherung werden diese zunächst als Untersuchungsgegenstand typologisch abgegrenzt. Eine wesentliche Besonderheit von Windenergieanlagen besteht darin, dass sie im Verhältnis zur eigentlichen Flächenversiegelung durch ihre vertikale Struktur erhebliche visuelle Auswirkungen auf die Landschaft haben. Anschließend wird die Entwicklung der Windenergienutzung seit den 1970er Jahren genauer betrachtet, welche insgesamt nicht linear verlief und von vielen Konflikten gekennzeichnet ist. Diese muss im Kontext eines wachsenden Umweltbewusstseins verstanden werden, das umfangreiche energiepolitische Veränderungen zur Folge hatte. Auf dieser Grundlage werden schließlich in einer denkmalkundlichen Reihenuntersuchung Windenergieanlagen herausgearbeitet, welche in hervorragender Weise von der Entwicklung zeugen. Die Auswahl bleibt allerdings mit sechs Objekten im Verhältnis zum Gesamtbestand von knapp 30.000 Anlagen relativ beschränkt, weil das auf die Abgrenzung von Besonderheiten ausgelegte etablierte Denkmalverständnis bei einem zeitlich so dichten Bestand gleichartiger Bauwerke an eine Grenze kommt. Abschließend werden mögliche Erhaltungsperspektiven sowie denkmaltheoretische und -praktische Schlussfolgerungen diskutiert. Dabei ist unbedingt ein Erhalt am Ursprungsstandort anzustreben, wobei im Einzelfall entschieden werden muss, ob Belange des Funktions- oder Substanzerhaltes höher zu gewichten sind. Die skizzierten Auswahlprobleme regen darüber hinaus zur Diskussion zusätzlicher denkbarer Bewertungskategorien an, wobei sich insbesondere die gesellschaftliche Wahrnehmung und ökologische Werte aufdrängen. Zudem kann für die stärkere Berücksichtigung von Funktionszusammenhängen bei der Betrachtung technischer Infrastruktur in der Denkmalpflege plädiert werden. Insgesamt führt die denkmalkundliche Auseinandersetzung mit Windenergieanlagen damit weit über die Herausarbeitung einzelner Objekte hinaus und macht eindrücklich auf aktuelle Herausforderungen der Denkmalpflege und darüber hinaus aufmerksam.

In addition to public health, AMR also poses a major threat to food security and economic development. Current sanitation systems contribute to the emergence and spread of AMR and lack effective AMR mitigation measures. This study assesses source separation of blackwater as a mitigation measure against AMR. A source-separation-modified combined sanitation system with separate collection of blackwater and graywater is conceptually described. Measures taken at the source, such as the separate collection and discharge of material flows, were not considered so far on a load balance basis, i.e., they have not yet been evaluated for their effectiveness. The sanitation system described is compared with a combined system and a separate system regarding AMR emissions by means of simulation. AMR is represented in the simulation model by one proxy parameter each for antibiotics (sulfamethoxa-zole), antibiotic-resistant bacteria (extended-spectrum beta-lactamase E. Coli), and antibiotic re-sistance genes (blaTEM). The simulation results suggest that the source-separation-based sanitation system reduces emissions of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes into the aquatic environment by more than six logarithm steps compared to combined systems. Sulfa-methoxazole emissions can be reduced by 75.5% by keeping blackwater separate from graywater and treating it sufficiently. In summary, sanitation systems incorporating source separation are, to date, among the most effective means of preventing the emission of AMR into the aquatic envi-ronment.

The load-bearing behavior of bolt fittings has extensively been studied in various research activities and the bearing capacity of bolted connections can be assessed well by standard regulations for practical applications. With regard to tensile loading, the nut does not have strong influence on resistances, since the failure occurs in the bolts due to higher material strengths of the nuts. In some applications, so-called “blind holes” are used to connect plated components. In a manner of speaking, the nut is replaced by the “outer” plate with a prefabricated hole and thread, in which the bolt can be screwed and tightened. In such connections, the limit load capacity cannot solely be assessed by the bolt resistance, since the threaded hole in the base material has strong influence on the structural behavior. In this context, the available screw-in depth of the blind hole is of fundamental importance. The German National Annex of EN 1993-1-8 provides information on a necessary depth in order to transfer the full tensile capacity of the bolt. However, some connections do not allow to fabricate such depths. In these cases, the capacity of the connection is unclear and not specified. In this paper, first experiments on corresponding connections with different screw-in depths are presented and compared to limit load capacities according to the standard.

One key feature of PD is the nonlocality, which is quite different from the ideas in conventional methods such as FEM and meshless method. However, conventional PD suffers from problems such as constant horizon, explicit algorithm, hourglass mode. In this thesis, by examining the nonlocality with scrutiny, we proposed several new concepts such as dual-horizon (DH) in PD, dual-support (DS) in smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), nonlocal operators and operator energy functional. The conventional PD (SPH) is incorporated in the DH-PD (DS-SPH), which can adopt an inhomogeneous discretization and inhomogeneous support domains. The DH-PD (DS-SPH) can be viewed as some fundamental improvement on the conventional PD (SPH). Dual formulation of PD and SPH allows h-adaptivity while satisfying the conservations of linear momentum, angular momentum and energy. By developing the concept of nonlocality further, we introduced the nonlocal operator method as a generalization of DH-PD. Combined with energy functional of various physical models, the nonlocal forms based on dual-support concept are derived. In addition, the variation of the energy functional allows implicit formulation of the nonlocal theory. At last, we developed the higher order nonlocal operator method which is capable of solving higher order partial differential equations on arbitrary domain in higher dimensional space. Since the concepts are developed gradually, we described our findings chronologically. In chapter 2, we developed a DH-PD formulation that includes varying horizon sizes and solves the "ghost force" issue. The concept of dual-horizon considers the unbalanced interactions between the particles with different horizon sizes. The present formulation fulfills both the balances of linear momentum and angular momentum exactly with arbitrary particle discretization. All three peridynamic formulations, namely bond based, ordinary state based and non-ordinary state based peridynamics can be implemented within the DH-PD framework. A simple adaptive refinement procedure (h-adaptivity) is proposed reducing the computational cost. Both two- and three- dimensional examples including the Kalthoff-Winkler experiment and plate with branching cracks are tested to demonstrate the capability of the method. In chapter 3, a nonlocal operator method (NOM) based on the variational principle is proposed for the solution of waveguide problem in computational electromagnetic field. Common differential operators as well as the variational forms are defined within the context of nonlocal operators. The present nonlocal formulation allows the assembling of the tangent stiffness matrix with ease, which is necessary for the eigenvalue analysis of the waveguide problem. The present formulation is applied to solve 1D Schrodinger equation, 2D electrostatic problem and the differential electromagnetic vector wave equations based on electric fields. In chapter 4, a general nonlocal operator method is proposed which is applicable for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) of mechanical problems. The nonlocal operator can be regarded as the integral form, ``equivalent'' to the differential form in the sense of a nonlocal interaction model. The variation of a nonlocal operator plays an equivalent role as the derivatives of the shape functions in the meshless methods or those of the finite element method. Based on the variational principle, the residual and the tangent stiffness matrix can be obtained with ease. The nonlocal operator method is enhanced here also with an operator energy functional to satisfy the linear consistency of the field. A highlight of the present method is the functional derived based on the nonlocal operator can convert the construction of residual and stiffness matrix into a series of matrix multiplications using the predefined nonlocal operators. The nonlocal strong forms of different functionals can be obtained easily via the concept of support and dual-support. Several numerical examples of different types of PDEs are presented. In chapter 5, we extended the NOM to higher order scheme by using a higher order Taylor series expansion of the unknown field. Such a higher order scheme improves the original NOM in chapter 3 and chapter 4, which can only achieve one-order convergence. The higher order NOM obtains all partial derivatives with specified maximal order simultaneously without resorting to shape functions. The functional based on the nonlocal operators converts the construction of residual and stiffness matrix into a series of matrix multiplication on the nonlocal operator matrix. Several numerical examples solved by strong form or weak form are presented to show the capabilities of this method. In chapter 6, the NOM proposed as a particle-based method in chapter 3,4,5, has difficulty in imposing accurately the boundary conditions of various orders. In this paper, we converted the particle-based NOM into a scheme with interpolation property. The new scheme describes partial derivatives of various orders at a point by the nodes in the support and takes advantage of the background mesh for numerical integration. The boundary conditions are enforced via the modified variational principle. The particle-based NOM can be viewed a special case of NOM with interpolation property when nodal integration is used. The scheme based on numerical integration greatly improves the stability of the method, as a consequence, the operator energy functional in particle-based NOM is not required. We demonstrated the capabilities of current method by solving the gradient solid problems and comparing the numerical results with the available exact solutions. In chapter 7, we derived the DS-SPH in solid within the framework of variational principle. The tangent stiffness matrix of SPH can be obtained with ease, and can be served as the basis for the present implicit SPH. We proposed an hourglass energy functional, which allows the direct derivation of hourglass force and hourglass tangent stiffness matrix. The dual-support is {involved} in all derivations based on variational principles and is automatically satisfied in the assembling of stiffness matrix.

Betone angestrebt. Die Reduzierung des Klinkergehaltes darf jedoch nicht zu einer lebensdauerrelevanten Beeinträchtigung der Betondauerhaftigkeit führen. In diesem Zusammenhang stellt der Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand eine kritische Größe dar, da er bei höheren Klinkersubstitutionsraten häufig negativ beeinflusst wird. Erschwerend kommt hinzu, dass für klinkerreduzierte Betone nur ein unzureichender Erfahrungsschatz vorliegt. Ein hoher Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand kann daher nicht ausschließlich anhand deskriptiver Vorgaben gewährleistet werden. Demgemäß sollte perspektivisch auch für frost-tausalzbeanspruchte Bauteile eine performancebasierte Lebensdauerbetrachtung erfolgen. Eine unverzichtbare Grundlage für das Erreichen dieser Ziele ist ein Verständnis für die Schadensvorgänge beim Frost-Tausalz-Angriff. Der Forschungsstand ist jedoch geprägt von widersprüchlichen Schadenstheorien. Somit wurde als Zielstellung für diese Arbeit abgeleitet, die existierenden Schadenstheorien unter Berücksichtigung des aktuellen Wissensstandes zu bewerten und mit eigenen Untersuchungen zu prüfen und einzuordnen. Die Sichtung des Forschungsstandes zeigte, dass nur zwei Theorien das Potential haben, den Frost-Tausalz-Angriff umfassend abzubilden – die Glue Spall Theorie und die Cryogenic Suction Theorie. Die Glue Spall Theorie führt die Entstehung von Abwitterungen auf die mechanische Schädigung der Betonoberfläche durch eine anhaftende Eisschicht zurück. Dabei sollen nur bei moderaten Tausalzkonzentrationen in der einwirkenden Lösung kritische Spannungszustände in der Eisschicht auftreten, die eine Schädigung der Betonoberfläche hervorrufen können. In dieser Arbeit konnte jedoch nachgewiesen werden, dass starke Abwitterungen auch bei Tausalz¬konzentrationen auftreten, bei denen eine mechanische Schädigung des Betons durch das Eis auszuschließen ist. Damit wurde die fehlende Eignung der Glue Spall Theorie aufgezeigt. Die Cryogenic Suction Theorie fußt auf den eutektischen Eigenschaften von Tausalz-lösungen, die im gefrorenen Zustand immer als Mischung auf festem Wassereis und flüssiger, hochkonzentrierter Salzlösung bestehen, solange ihre Eutektikumstemperatur nicht unter¬schritten wird. Die flüssige Phase im salzhaltigen Eis stellt für gefrorenen Beton ein bisher nicht berücksichtigtes Flüssigkeitsreservoir dar, welches trotz der hohen Salzkonzentration die Eisbildung in der Betonrandzone verstärken und so die Entstehung von Abwitterungen verursachen soll. In dieser Arbeit wurde bestätigt, dass die Eisbildung im Zementstein beim Gefrieren in hochkonzentrierter Tausalzlösung tatsächlich verstärkt wird. Das Ausmaß der zusätzlichen Eisbildung wurde dabei auch von der Fähigkeit des Zementsteins zur Bindung von Chloridionen aus der Tausalzlösung beeinflusst. Zusammenfassend wurde festgestellt, dass die Cryogenic Suction Theorie eine gute Beschreibung des Frost-Tausalz-Angriffes darstellt, aber um weitere Aspekte ergänzt werden muss. Die Berücksichtigung der intensiven Sättigung von Beton durch den Prozess der Mikroeislinsenpumpe stellt hier die wichtigste Erweiterung dar. Basierend auf dieser Überlegung wurde eine kombinierte Schadenstheorie aufgestellt. Wichtige Annahmen dieser Theorie konnten experimentell bestätigt werden. Im Ergebnis wurde so die Grundlage für ein tiefergehendes Verständnis des Frost-Tausalz-Angriffes geschaffen. Zudem wurde ein neuer Ansatz identifiziert, um die (potentielle) Verringerung des Frost-Tausalz-Widerstandes klinkerreduzierter Betone zu erklären. N2 - The reduction of the cement clinker content is an important prerequisite for the improvement of the CO2-footprint of concrete. Nevertheless, the durability of such concretes must be sufficient to guarantee a satisfactory service life of structures. Salt frost scaling resistance is a critical factor in this regard, as it is often diminished at increased clinker substitution rates. Furthermore, only insufficient long-term experience for such concretes exists. A high salt frost scaling resistance thus cannot be achieved by applying only descriptive criteria, such as the concrete composition. It is therefore to be expected, that in the long term a performance based service life prediction will replace the descriptive concept. To achieve the important goal of clinker reduction for concretes also in cold and temperate climates it is important to understand the underlying mechanisms for salt frost scaling. However, conflicting damage theories dominate the current State of the Art. It was consequently derived as the goal of this thesis to evaluate existing damage theories and to examine them experimentally. It was found that only two theories have the potential to describe the salt frost attack satisfactorily – the glue spall theory and the cryogenic suction theory. The glue spall theory attributes the surface scaling to the interaction of an external ice layer with the concrete surface. Only when moderate amounts of deicing salt are present in the test solution the resulting mechanical properties of the ice can cause scaling. However, the results in this thesis indicate that severe scaling also occurs at deicing salt levels, at which the ice is much too soft to damage concrete. Thus, the inability of the glue spall theory to account for all aspects of salt frost scaling was shown. The cryogenic suction theory is based on the eutectic behavior of salt solutions, which consist of two phases – water ice and liquid brine – between the freezing point and the eutectic temperature. The liquid brine acts as an additional moisture reservoir, which facilitates the growth of ice lenses in the surface layer of the concrete. The experiments in this thesis confirmed, that the ice formation in hardened cement paste increases due to the suction of brine at sub-zero temperatures. The extent of additional ice formation was influenced mainly by the porosity and by the chloride binding capacity of the hardened cement paste. Consequently, the cryogenic suction theory plausibly describes the actual generation of scaling, but it has to be expanded by some crucial aspects to represent the salt frost scaling attack completely. The most important aspect is the intensive saturation process, which is ascribed to the so-called micro ice lens pump. Therefore a combined damage theory was proposed, which considers multiple saturation processes. Important aspects of this combined theory were confirmed experimentally. As a result, the combined damage theory constitutes a good basis to understand the salt frost scaling attack on concrete on a fundamental level. Furthermore, a new approach was identified, to account for the reduced salt frost scaling resistance of concretes with reduced clinker content.

Während manche Bereiche Neuerungen hervorbringen und einige Akteure als Pioniere zu bezeichnen sind, weisen andere Themen noch Defizite hinsichtlich der digitalen Transformation auf. Zu dieser Kategorie kann auch das Baugenehmigungsverfahren gezählt werden. Unabhängig davon, wie Architekten und Ingenieure in den Planungsbüros auf innovative Methoden setzen, bleiben die Bauvorlagen bisher zuhauf in Papierform oder werden nach der elektronischen Einreichung in der Behörde ausgedruckt. Vorhandene Ressourcen, beispielsweise in Form eines Bauwerksinformationsmodells, die Unterstützung bei der Baugenehmigungsfeststellung bieten können, werden nicht ausgeschöpft. Um mit digitalen Werkzeugen eine Entscheidungshilfe für die Baugenehmigungsbehörden zu erarbeiten, ist es notwendig, den Ist-Zustand zu verstehen und Gegebenheiten zu hinterfragen, bevor eine Gesamtautomatisierung der innerbehördlichen Vorgänge als alleinige Lösung zu verfolgen ist. Mit einer inhaltlich-organisatorischen Betrachtung der relevanten Bereiche, die Einfluss auf die Baugenehmigungsfeststellung nehmen, wird eine Optimierung des Baugenehmigungsverfahrens in den Behörden angestrebt. Es werden die komplexen Bereiche, wie die Gesetzeslage, der Einsatz von Technologie aber auch die subjektiven Handlungsalternativen, ermittelt und strukturiert. Mit der Entwicklung eines Modells zur Feststellung der Baugenehmigungsfähigkeit wird sowohl ein Verständnis für Einflussfaktoren vermittelt als auch eine Transparenzsteigerung für alle Beteiligten geschaffen. Neben einer internationalen Literaturrecherche diente eine empirische Studie als Untersuchungsmethode. Die empirische Studie wurde in Form von qualitativen Experteninterviews durchgeführt, um den Ist-Zustand im Bereich der Baugenehmigungsverfahren festzustellen. Das erhobene Datenmaterial wurde aufbereitet und anschließend einer softwaregestützten Inhaltsanalyse unterzogen. Die Ergebnisse wurden in Kombination mit den Erkenntnissen der Literaturrecherche in verschiedenen Analysen als Modellgrundlage aufgearbeitet. Ergebnis der Untersuchung stellt ein Entscheidungsmodell dar, welches eine Lücke zwischen den gegenwärtigen Abläufen in den Baubehörden und einer Gesamtautomatisierung der Baugenehmigungsprüfung schließt. Die prozessorientierte Strukturierung entscheidungsrelevanter Sachverhalte im Modell ermöglicht eine Unterstützung bei der Baugenehmigungsfeststellung für Prüfer und Antragsteller. Das theoretische Modell konnte in Form einer Webanwendung in die Praxis übertragen werden. N2 - In recent years, the debate on digitization has been a topic of discussion in the media, at conferences and in committees of the construction and real estate industry. While some areas are producing innovations and some actors can be called pioneers, others still have deficits with regard to the digital transformation. The building permit process can also be considered among this category. Regardless of how architects and engineers use innovative methods in the planning offices, building applications are still often in paper form or are printed out after electronic submission to the authorities. Existing resources, for example in the form of a building information model, which can provide support in obtaining building permits, are not being utilized. In order to develop a decision support for the building authorities with digital tools, it is necessary to understand the actual conditions and to question the circumstances before an overall automation of the internal official processes can be pursued as the sole solution. With a content-based organizational view of the relevant components, which take influence on the building permit determination, an optimization of the building permit procedure in the authorities is aimed at. The complex components, such as the legal situation, the use of technology, but also the subjective alternatives for action, have to be determined and structured. The development of a model for determining building permit ability provides both an understanding of influencing factors and an increase in transparency for all parties involved. In addition to an international literature review, an empirical study served as a method of investigation. The empirical study was conducted in the form of qualitative expert interviews to determine the current state in the field of building permit procedures. The collected data material was prepared and subjected to a software-supported content analysis. In combination with the results of the literature review, the results were processed in various analyses as a model basis. The result of the investigation represents a decision model which closes a gap between the current processes at the building authorities and an overall automation of the building permit review. The process-oriented structuring of decision-relevant factors in the model enables support for the reviewers and the applicants during the building permit assessment. The theoretical model could be transferred into practice in the form of a web application.

While this offers numerous environmental advantages, it can have a considerable impact on the hygrothermal performance of the facade as such systems involve bringing large quantities of water onto the facade. As it is difficult to represent complex entities such as plants in the typical simulation tools used for heat and moisture transport, this study suggests a new approach to tackle this challenge by coupling two tools: ENVI-Met and Delphin. ENVI-Met was used to simulate the impact of the plants to determine the local environmental parameters at the living wall. Delphin, on the other hand, was used to conduct the hygrothermal simulations using the local parameters calculated by ENVI-Met. Four wall constructions were investigated in this study: an uninsulated brick wall, a precast concrete plate, a sandy limestone wall, and a double-shell wall. The results showed that the living wall improved the U-value, the exterior surface temperature, and the heat flux through the wall. Moreover, the living wall did not increase the risk of moisture in the wall during winter and eliminated the risk of condensation.

We analyze a dataset of 150 long essays whose authors searched the ClueWeb09 corpus for source material, while all querying, clicking, and writing activity was meticulously recorded. We model the effect of search and writing behavior on essay quality using path analysis. Since the boil-down and build-up writing strategies identified in previous research have been found to affect search behavior, we model each writing strategy separately. Our analysis shows that the search process contributes significantly to essay quality through both direct and mediated effects, while the author's writing strategy moderates this relationship. Our models explain 25–35% of the variation in essay quality through rather simple search and writing process characteristics alone, a fact that has implications on how search engines could personalize result pages for writing tasks. Authors' writing strategies and associated searching patterns differ, producing differences in essay quality. In a nutshell: essay quality improves if search and writing strategies harmonize—build-up writers benefit from focused, in-depth querying, while boil-down writers fare better with a broader and shallower querying strategy.

The goal of the coupled analytical–numerical approach is to obtain the correct solution behaviour near the crack tip by help of the analytical solution constructed by using tools of complex function theory and couple it continuously with the finite element solution in the region far from the singularity. In this way, crack propagation could be modelled without using remeshing. Possible directions of crack growth can be calculated through the minimization of the total energy composed of the potential energy and the dissipated energy based on the energy release rate. Within this setting, an analytical solution of a mixed boundary value problem based on complex analysis and conformal mapping techniques is presented in a circular region containing an arbitrary crack path. More precisely, the linear elastic problem is transformed into a Riemann–Hilbert problem in the unit disk for holomorphic functions. Utilising advantages of the analytical solution in the region near the crack tip, the total energy could be evaluated within short computation times for various crack kink angles and lengths leading to a potentially efficient way of computing the minimization procedure. To this end, the paper presents a general strategy of the new coupled approach for crack propagation modelling. Additionally, we also discuss obstacles in the way of practical realisation of this strategy.

We also compare the results with graphene monolayer. In our simulations, nanosheets are exposed to a spherical rigid carbon projectile with high initial velocities ranging from 2 to 23 km/s. Results for three different structures are compared to examine the most critical factors in the perforation and resistance force during the impact. To analyze the perforation and impact resistance, kinetic energy and displacement time history of the projectile as well as perforation resistance force of the projectile are investigated. Interestingly, although the elasticity module and tensile strength of the graphene are by almost five times higher than those of MoS2, the results demonstrate that 1T and 2H-MoS2 phases are more resistive to the impact loading and perforation than graphene. For the MoS2nanosheets, we realize that the 2H phase is more resistant to impact loading than the 1T counterpart. Our reactive molecular dynamics results highlight that in addition to the strength and toughness, atomic structure is another crucial factor that can contribute substantially to impact resistance of 2D materials. The obtained results can be useful to guide the experimental setups for the nanopore creation in MoS2or other 2D lattices.

N2 - This thesis is exploring the consequences of uranium mining in the area around the former mining region of the Wismut SAG / SDAG in Ronneburg (East Thuringia), East Germany. The topic is viewed from historical, social, cultural-anthropological and artistic aspects and placed in the context of the worldwide requirements of the nuclear industry and the effects of uranium mining and its consequences. The thesis explains how a uranium mining landscape is created and what knowledge is important for an adequate understanding of the phenomenon. It is examined whether art can make a relevant contribution in dealing with the uranium mining landscape. It discusses artworks that have dealt with related topics. In combination of these two main aspects, the thesis investigates the question which factors shape the uranium mining landscape and whether there are meaningful fields of participation for artistic research and which conditions would have to be met for this. The core thesis of the work is that artistic work in the field of uranium mining can make relevant contributions under certain conditions. It also contains field research, interviews and the description and application of a method called "random-structured landscape observation".

This question seems important to ask, considering the conflictual recent past of the country that particularly affected cultural expressions such as music. In these four articles diverse perspectives on Afghan music are explored. From traditional music of the Afghan rubab and its masters up to popular music of the Afghan-German hiphop producer “Farhot”, various insights are given into phenomena yet barely covered in academic works. This collection provides glimpses into the variety of the music of Afghanistan and the Afghan diaspora and help to shape the Western views on the music of the country into more diverse perspectives. We move further away from the bias of the majority of media representations predominantly showing the conflictual sides of Afghanistan, at the same time avoiding a limiting and narrow view on Afghanistan with solely a musical tradition located in the past. These essays go beyond and outline that apart from a rich tradition, there are present forms of musical expression. We move from “Tradition to Television” and beyond, exploring views on the future of music connected to Afghanistan.

The approach is based on an Ayrton-Perry formula adaptation of buckling curves for steel members in compression, which involves the computation of an elastic critical buckling load for considering the instability. NCCI documents offer a simplified formula to determine the critical bending moment for cantilevers beams with symmetric cross-section. Besides the NCCI recommendations, other approaches, e.g. research literature or Finite-Element-Analysis, may be employed to determine critical buckling loads. However, in certain cases they render different results. Present paper summarizes and compares the abovementioned analytical and numerical approaches for determining critical loads and it exemplarily analyses corresponding cantilever beam capacities using numerical approaches based on plastic zones theory (GMNIA).

The study was conducted using a thermal manikin to simulate a seated occupant facing a PV outlet. Air velocity was measured at multiple points in the flow field; the collected velocity values were used to calculate the turbulence intensity. Results indicated that PV was supplying air with low turbulence intensity that was able to penetrate the convective boundary layer of the manikin to supply clean air for inhalation. The convective boundary layer, however, obstructed the supplied flow and reduced its velocity by a total of 0.26 m/s. The PV flow preserved its value until about 10 cm from the face where velocity started to drop. Further investigations were conducted to test a PV diffuser with a relatively large outlet diameter (18 cm). This diffuser was developed using 3d-modelling and 3d-printing. The diffuser successfully distributed the flow over the larger outlet area. However, the supplied velocity and turbulence fields were not uniform across the section.

It employs the relationship between the sound velocities along sound-paths and their related travel-times through measured room-impulse-response (RIR). Thus, the precise travel-time estimation is of critical importance which can be performed by applying an analysis time-window method. In this study, multiple analysis time-windows with different lengths are proposed to overcome the challenge of accurate detection of the travel-times at RIR. Hence, the ATOM-temperatures distribution has been measured at the climate chamber lab of the Bauhaus-University Weimar. As a benchmark, the temperatures of NTC thermistors are compared to the reconstructed temperatures derived from the ATOM technique illustrating this technique can be a reliable substitute for traditional thermal sensors. The numerical results indicate that the selection of an appropriate analysis time-window significantly enhances the accuracy of the reconstructed temperatures distribution.

El Caso de barrio Güemes 2000-2016 T1 - Continuities, tensions and breakdowns in the inhabit practices, in the framework of the transformations of 'traditional' neighborhoods. The case of Güemes neighborhood 2000-2016 N2 - El presente trabajo se inscribe en el campo de los estudios urbanos y plantea como ejes estructurantes la intersección entre las políticas públicas, el barrio y las prácticas del habitar (de Certeau, 1996, 1999; Gravano, 2003) en el marco de las transformaciones del espacio urbano en los barrios pericentrales, también denominados tradicionales de la ciudad de Córdoba, particularmente lo acontecido en Barrio Güemes, durante el periodo 2010-2016. El propósito del abordaje se inscribe en conocer y realizar aportes generalizables a la comprensión de las prácticas del habitar como unidad de análisis. En ese marco, el problema de investigación se formula en el siguiente interrogante: ¿cómo se modifican las prácticas del habitar en el marco de las transformaciones urbanas, en un modo de producción capitalista? Se entiende a las prácticas como acciones elementales de las “artes de hacer” que las personas ordinarias ponen en marcha en su vida cotidiana: para circular, cocinar, trabajar, vincularse. También, a través de las mismas resignifican los espacios, les otorgan una valoración (positiva o negativa), se identifican como parte de la identidad y a su vez se reconocen lugares de (des)encuentro y vías de circulación. Para su abordaje se toma como unidad de estudio el caso de barrio Güemes. El recorte espacial (o físico) del trabajo empírico está localizado en la ciudad de Córdoba, y se sitúa en la periferia del área central. Esta localización permite comprender el surgimiento de las primeras expansiones urbanas como consecuencia del crecimiento demográfico y cómo estas, se transformaron en los primeros barrios. El recorte temporal se encuentra delimitado entre los años 2000 y 2016, respaldado intencionalmente por dos acontecimientos significativos: el censo de población (2001) y la celebración del Bicentenario de la Independencia en Argentina. Los cambios materializados en ciertos espacios urbanos, tanto en ciudades latinoamericanas (Buenos Aires, Salvador de Bahía en Brasil, México Distrito Federal, etc.) como en otras partes del mundo (New Orleans en los Estados Unidos, el distrito de Kreuzberg- Friedrichshain en Berlín, el puerto de Hamburgo en Alemania, etc.) demuestran cómo estos espacios se van transformado acorde al modo de reproducción capitalista. Pues, se trataba de espacios que en algún momento cumplieron funciones económicas-sociales jerarquizadas y luego por la dinámica misma del capitalismo, la sobreacumulación, dejan de ser rentables y pasan a ser espacios “obsoletos”. En ese sentido, la omisión de acciones públicas y/o privadas, la desatención y el crecimiento de situaciones sociales conflictivas (delitos, inseguridad, degradación) en estos espacios, funciona como argumento para que los gobiernos locales comiencen a planear el futuro y modernizarlos. De esta manera, se plantean políticas urbanas con el objetivo de impulsar acciones de renovación o rehabilitación para dinamizar económicamente determinados sectores. Dos elementos discursivos aparecen como posibilitadores del proceso de renovación urbana: el turismo y el patrimonio. En ese sentido, bajo la recuperación patrimonial de ciertos lugares se dinamizan los territorios, por lo que el turismo se vuelve una herramienta económica que produce un excedente de plusvalía. La puesta en valor de bienes tangibles e intangibles atrae la afluencia de visitantes y, a la vez, es rentable económicamente. Ahora bien, muchas veces los proyectos tienen en cuenta las variables morfológicas y físicas, dejando en un segundo plano el impacto en el espacio próximo y las relaciones entre los habitantes con su territorio. Actualmente los espacios elegidos por los municipios para la intervención pública y/o privada son los barrios, puesto que son espacios cercanos al centro y considerados estratégicos. Por lo general, el argumento es la necesidad de rehabilitar/renovar zonas poco aprovechadas o degradadas con el objetivo de mejorar la calidad de vida de la población y dinamizar el sector (Brites, 2017; Guevara, 2012). Desde los 2000 el barrio Güemes asiste a un proceso de crecimiento inusitado. La cantidad de artesanos se disparó y variedad de productos ofrecidos, emergieron los comercios que forman parte de la oferta comercial, gastronómica y cultural del barrio. Hace varios años, presenta nuevos actores económicos que se pueden observar en la apertura de galerías comerciales; ubicadas sobre el eje de las calles Belgrano, Achával Rodríguez, Fructuoso Rivera y la creciente aparición de edificaciones alrededor de la feria artesanal histórica; con la venta y exposición de piezas del arte plástico, gastronomía, negocios de diseñadores cordobeses y hasta la inclusión de la idea del del “desarrollo sustentable” en los techos de las galerías. La modificación del corpus normativo, la aparición de edificación en altura y el boom económico tuvieron como resultado, la valorización del suelo urbano, la retroalimentación en el espacio con el emplazamiento de nuevas actividades comerciales y servicios culturales. A la par, en el espacio barrial se presentan nuevos residentes con otros hábitos y prácticas que ponen en disputa los modos de habitar en el espacio. A riesgo de simplificar, estas transformaciones fueron producto de los cambios políticoideológicos, de los modelos e instrumentos de gestión urbana puestos en juego en los diversos momentos históricos y de las propias prácticas sociales y culturales de los habitantes. De esta manera, se centrará la mirada analítica en las transformaciones de las prácticas del habitar de los pobladores de los Barrios Güemes, en el marco de la metamorfosis del espacio urbano (atravesado por tendencias de mediatización y mercantilización de la experiencia) que conjugó un proceso de intersección y asociatividad entre políticas públicas y expansión inmobiliaria. N2 - This work is part of the field of urban studies and proposes as structuring axes the intersection between public policies, the neighborhood and the inhabit practices (de Certeau, 1996, 1999; Gravano, 2003) in the framework of the transformations of the urban space in the pericentral neighborhoods, also known as traditional neighborhoods in the city of Córdoba, particularly what happened in Barrio Güemes, during the period 2010-2016. The purpose of the approach is inscribed in knowing and making generalizable contributions to the understanding of the inhabit practices as a unit of analysis. In this framework, the research problem is formulated in the following question: how are living practices modified in the framework of urban transformations, in a capitalist mode of production? The practices are understood as elementary actions of the "arts of doing" that ordinary people implement in their daily lives: to circulate, to cook, to work, to connect. Also, through them they resignify the spaces, give them an assessment (positive or negative), identify themselves as part of the identity and, in turn, recognize places of (dis) encounter and circulation path. For this approach, the case of Güemes neighborhood is taken as a unit of study. The spatial (or physical) clipping of the empirical work is located in the city of Córdoba, and is located on the periphery of the central area. This location allows us to understand the emergence of the first urban expansions as a consequence of demographic growth and how these were transformed into the first neighborhoods. The temporary cut is delimited between the years 2000 and 2016, intentionally supported by two significant events: the population census (2001) and the celebration of the Bicentenario de la Independencia de Argentina (Bicentennial of Independence in Argentina). The changes materialized in certain urban spaces, both in Latin American cities (Buenos Aires, Salvador de Bahía in Brazil, Mexico City, etc.) and in other parts of the world (New Orleans in the United States, the district of Kreuzberg-Friedrichshain in Berlin, the port of Hamburg in Germany, etc.) demonstrate how these spaces are transformed according to the capitalist mode of reproduction. Since these were spaces that at some point fulfilled hierarchical economic- social functions and later, due to the very dynamics of capitalism, the over-accumulation, they stopped being profitable and became “obsolete” spaces. In this sense, the omission of public and / or private actions, the neglect and growth of conflictive social situations (crime, insecurity, degradation) in these spaces, works as an argument for local governments to start planning the future and modernizing them. In this way, urban policies are proposed with the aim of promoting renovation or rehabilitation actions to economically boost certain sectors. Two discursive elements appear as enablers of the urban renewal process: tourism and patrimony. In this sense, under the patrimonial recovery of certain places, the territories are made more dynamic, so that tourism becomes an economic tool that produces an excess of surplus value. The punt in value of tangible and intangible assets attracts the influx of visitors and, at the same time, is economically profitable. However, projects often take into account morphological and physical variables, leaving in the background the impact on the nearby space and the relationships between the inhabitants and their territory. Currently the spaces chosen by the municipalities and for public and/or private intervention are the neighborhoods, since they are spaces close to the center and considered strategic. In general, the argument is the need to rehabilitate or renovate little-used or degraded areas in order to improve the quality of life of the population and boost the sector (Brites, 2017; Guevara, 2012). Since the 2000s, the neighborhood has witnessed an unusual growth process. The number of craftsmen skyrocketed and the variety of products offered, the businesses that are part of the commercial, gastronomic and cultural offer of the neighborhood emerged. For several years, it has introduced new economic actors that can be observed in the opening of commercial galleries; located on the axis of the streets Belgrano, Achával Rodríguez, Fructuoso Rivera and the growing appearance of buildings around the historic artisan fair; where it is sold and exhibited different pieces of plastic art, gastronomy, businesses of cordobes designers and even the inclusion of the idea of "sustainable development" in the ceilings of the galleries. The modification of the normative corpus, the appearance of high-rise buildings and the economic boom resulted in: the valorization of urban land, feedback in space with the location of new commercial activities and cultural services. At the same time, new residents appeared in the neighborhood space with other habits and practices that dispute the ways of living in the place. At the risk of simplification, these transformations were the product of the political-ideological changes, of the urban management models and instruments put into play in the various historical moments, and of the inhabitants' own social and cultural practices. In this way, the analytical look will focus on the transformations of the inhabitat practices of the residents of the Güemes neighbourhood, within the framework of the metamorphosis of the urban space (crossed by tendencies of mediatization and commercialization of the experience) that combined a process of intersection and associativity between public policies and real estate expansion.

While some areas are producing innovations and some contributors can be described as pioneers, other topics still show deficits with regard to digital transformation. The building permit process can also be counted in this category. Regardless of how architects and engineers in planning offices rely on innovative methods, building documents have so far remained in paper form in too many cases, or are printed out after electronic submission to the authority. Existing resources – for example in the form of a building information model, which could provide support in the building permit process – are not being taken advantage of. In order to use digital tools to support decision-making by the building permit authorities, it is necessary to understand the current situation and to question conditions before pursuing the overall automation of internal authority processes as the sole solution. With a substantive-organizational consideration of the relevant areas that influence building permit determination, an improvement of the building permit procedure within authorities is proposed. Complex areas – such as legal situations, the use of technology, as well as the subjective alternative action – are determined and structured. With the development of a model for the determination of building permitability, both an understanding of influencing factors is conveyed and an increase in transparency for all parties involved is created. In addition to an international literature review, an empirical study served as the research method. The empirical study was conducted in the form of qualitative expert interviews in order to determine the current state in the field of building permit procedures. The collected data material was processed and subsequently subjected to a software-supported content analysis. The results were processed, in combination with findings from the literature review, in various analyses to form the basis for a proposed model. The result of the study is a decision model that closes the gap between the current processes within the building authorities and an overall automation of the building permit review process. The model offers support to examiners and applicants in determining building permit eligibility, through its process-oriented structuring of decision-relevant facts. The theoretical model could be transferred into practice in the form of a web application.

These methods visualize airflow by visualizing density gradients in transparent media. The playing of professional woodwind and brass instrument players, as well as professional classical trained singers were investigated to estimate the spread distances of the breathing air. For a better comparison and consistent measurement series, a single high note, a single low note, and an extract of a musical piece were investigated. Additionally, anemometry was used to determine the velocity of the spreading breathing air and the extent to which it was quantifiable. The results showed that the ejected airflow from the examined instruments and singers did not exceed a spreading range of 1.2 m into the room. However, differences in the various instruments have to be considered to assess properly the spread of the breathing air. The findings discussed below help to estimate the risk of cross-infection for wind instrument players and singers and to develop efficacious safety precautions, which is essential during critical health periods such as the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Such unstable interaction can be beneficially used for small-scale aeroelastic energy harvesting. Proper understanding and prediction of fluid−structure interactions (FSI) phenomena are therefore crucial in many engineering fields. This research intends to develop coupled FSI models to extend the applicability of Vortex Particle Methods (VPM) for numerically analysing the complex FSI of thin-walled flexible structures under steady and fluctuating incoming flows. In this context, the flow around deforming thin bodies is analysed using the two-dimensional and pseudo-three-dimensional implementations of VPM. The structural behaviour is modelled and analysed using the Finite Element Method. The partitioned coupling approach is considered because of the flexibility of using different mathematical procedures for solving fluid and solid mechanics. The developed coupled models are validated with several benchmark FSI problems in the literature. Finally, the models are applied to several fundamental and application field of FSI problems of different thin-walled flexible structures irrespective of their size.

However, for steel structures, a certain degree of plasticization depending on the member classification may be considered. Corresponding plastic analyses taking material nonlinearities into account are effectively realized using numerical methods. Frequently applied finite elements of two and three-dimensional models evaluate the plasticity at defined nodes using a yield surface, i.e. by a yield condition, hardening rule, and flow rule. Corresponding calculations are connected to a large numerical as well as time-consuming effort and they do not rely on the theoretical background of beam theory, to which the regulations of standards mainly correspond. For that reason, methods using beam elements (one-dimensional) combined with cross-sectional analyses are commonly applied for steel members in terms of plastic zones theories. In these approaches, plasticization is in general assessed by means of axial stress only. In this paper, more precise numerical representation of the combined stress states, i.e. axial and shear stresses, is presented and results of the proposed approach are validated and discussed.

For improvement of the end-use quality, it is of significant importance to enhance the quality of fused filament fabrication (FFF)-printed objects in PLA. The purpose of this investigation was to boost toughness and to reduce the production cost of the FFF-printed tensile test samples with the desired part thickness. To remove the need for numerous and idle printing samples, the response surface method (RSM) was used. Statistical analysis was performed to deal with this concern by considering extruder temperature (ET), infill percentage (IP), and layer thickness (LT) as controlled factors. The artificial intelligence method of artificial neural network (ANN) and ANN-genetic algorithm (ANN-GA) were further developed to estimate the toughness, part thickness, and production-cost-dependent variables. Results were evaluated by correlation coefficient and RMSE values. According to the modeling results, ANN-GA as a hybrid machine learning (ML) technique could enhance the accuracy of modeling by about 7.5, 11.5, and 4.5% for toughness, part thickness, and production cost, respectively, in comparison with those for the single ANN method. On the other hand, the optimization results confirm that the optimized specimen is cost-effective and able to comparatively undergo deformation, which enables the usability of printed PLA objects.

Appropriate characterisation for quality control and decision-making is therefore the critical point to maintain a stable production but also for the development of alternative cements. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in combination with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) delivers spatially resolved phase and chemical information for cement clinker. This data can be used to quantify phase fractions and chemical composition of identified phases. The contribution aims to provide an overview of phase fraction quantification by semi-automatic phase segmentation using high-resolution backscattered electron (BSE) images and lower-resolved EDX element maps. Therefore, a tool for image analysis was developed that uses state-of-the-art algorithms for pixel-wise image segmentation and labelling in combination with a decision tree that allows searching for specific clinker phases. Results show that this tool can be applied to segment sub-micron scale clinker phases and to get a quantification of all phase fractions. In addition, statistical evaluation of the data is implemented within the tool to reveal whether the imaged area is representative for all clinker phases.

However, by comparing findings with mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), it becomes obvious that the imaged 3D volumes and 2D images do not sufficiently overlap at certain scales to allow a continuous quantification of the pore size distribution (PSD). This can be overcome by improving the resolution and increasing the measured volume. Furthermore, results show that the fibrous morphology of calcium-silicate-hydrates (C-S-H) phases is preserved during FIB-nT. This is a requirement for characterisation of nano-scale porosity. Finally, it was proven that the combination of FIB-nT with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) data facilitates the phase segmentation of a 11 × 11 × 7.7 μm3 volume of hydrated alite.

Therefore, a 3D micromodel was developed and calibrated thereafter, to gain more insight in the topic. The micromodels were calibrated against their equivalent physical test specimens of in-plane, out-of-plane drift driven tests on frames with and without infill walls and openings, as well as out-of-plane bend test of masonry walls. Micromodels were rectified based on their behavior and damage states. As a result of the calibration process, it was found that micromodels were sensitive and insensitive to various parameters, regarding the model’s behavior and computational stability. It was found that, even within the same material model, some parameters had more effects when attributed to concrete rather than on masonry. Generally, the in-plane behavior of infilled frames was found to be largely governed by the interface material model. The out-of-plane masonry wall simulations were governed by the tensile strength of both the interface and masonry material model. Yet, the out-of-plane drift driven test was governed by the concrete material properties.

But due to inherent limitations of the acquisition process, the required information is often incomplete or missing altogether. To fill these gaps, citizen observations spread through social media are widely considered to be a promising source of relevant information, and many studies propose new methods to tap this resource. Yet, the overarching question of whether and under which circumstances social media can supply relevant information (both qualitatively and quantitatively) still remains unanswered. To shed some light on this question, we review 37 disaster and incident databases covering 27 incident types, compile a unified overview of the contained data and their collection processes, and identify the missing or incomplete information. The resulting data collection reveals six major use cases for social media analysis in incident data collection: (1) impact assessment and verification of model predictions, (2) narrative generation, (3) recruiting citizen volunteers, (4) supporting weakly institutionalized areas, (5) narrowing surveillance areas, and (6) reporting triggers for periodical surveillance. Furthermore, we discuss the benefits and shortcomings of using social media data for closing information gaps related to incidents and disasters.

A commonly used frosting bath mainly contains ammonium bifluoride (NH4HF2) mixed with hydrochloric acid (HCl). The frosting process consists of several baths. Firstly, the preliminary bath to clean the object. Secondly, the frosting bath which etches the rough light scattering structure into the glass surface. Finally, the washing baths to clean the frosted object. This is where the constituents of the preceding steps accumulate and have to be filtered from the sewage. In the present contribution, phosphoric acid (H3PO4) was used as a substitute for HCl to reduce the amount of ammonium (NH4+) and chloride (Cl−) dissolved in the waste water. In combination with magnesium carbonate (MgCO3), it allows the precipitation of ammonium within the sewage as ammonium magnesium phosphate (MgNH4PO4). However, a trivial replacement of HCl by H3PO4 within the frosting process causes extensive frosting errors, such as inhomogeneous size distributions of the structures or domains that are not fully covered by these structures. By modifying the preliminary bath composition, it was possible to improve the frosting result considerably. To determine the optimal composition of the preliminary bath, a semi-automatic evaluation method has been developed. This method renders the objective comparison of the resulting surface quality possible.

In principle, media students represent a crucial population of nascent entrepreneurs: individuals who will likely become founders of start-ups (Casero-Ripollés et al., 2016). However, their willingness to start a new business is generally considered to be rather low (Goyanes, 2015), and for journalism students, the idea of innovation tends to be conservative, following traditional norms and professional standards (Singer & Broersma, 2020). In a sample of Spanish journalism students, López-Meri et al. (2020) found that one of the main barriers to entrepreneurial intentions is that students feel they lack knowledge and training in entrepreneurship. In the last 10 years, a wide variety of entrepreneurship education courses have been set up in media departments of colleges and universities worldwide. These programs have been designed to sensitize and prepare communications, media and journalism students to think and act entrepreneurially (e.g. Caplan et al., 2020; Ferrier, 2013; Ferrier & Mays, 2017; Hunter & Nel, 2011). Entrepreneurial competencies and practices not only play a crucial role for start-ups, but, in imes of digital transformation, are increasingly sought after by legacy media companies as well (Küng, 2015). At the Department of Journalism and Communication Research, Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media, Germany, we have been addressing these developments with the “Media Entrepreneurship” program. The course, established in 2013, aims to provide fundamental knowledge of entrepreneurship, as well as promoting students‘ entrepreneurial thinking and behavior. This article presents the pedagogical approach of the program and investigates learning outcomes. By outlining and evaluating the Media Entrepreneurship program, this article aims to promote good practices of entrepreneurship education in communications, media and journalism, and to reflect on the limitations of such programs.

This leads to high-resolution 2D-images that can be combined using EDX and EBSD to unveil details of the microstructure and composition of materials. Nevertheless, this does not provide a quantitative insight into the three-dimensional fine structure of for example C-S-H phases. The focused ion beam (FIB) technology can cut a block of material in thin layers of less than 10 nm. This gives us a volume of 1000 μm³ with a voxel resolution of down to 4 x 4 x 10 nm³. The results can be combined with simultaneously acquired EDX data to improve image segmentation. Results of the investigation demonstrate that it is possible to obtain close-to-native 3D-visualisation of the spatial distribution of unreacted C3S, C-S-H and CH. Additionally, an optimized preparation method allows us to quantify the fine structure of C-S-H phases (length, aspect ratio, …) and the pore space.
