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

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

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

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

Such an understanding is critical for engineers and scientists developing new materials with higher strength and toughness, developing robust designs against failure, or for those concerned with an accurate estimate of a component's design life. Defects like cracks and dislocations evolve at nano scales and influence the macroscopic properties such as strength, toughness and ductility of a material. In engineering applications, the global response of the system is often governed by the behaviour at the smaller length scales. Hence, the sub-scale behaviour must be computed accurately for good predictions of the full scale behaviour. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations promise to reveal the fundamental mechanics of material failure by modeling the atom to atom interactions. Since the atomistic dimensions are of the order of Angstroms ( A), approximately 85 billion atoms are required to model a 1 micro- m^3 volume of Copper. Therefore, pure atomistic models are prohibitively expensive with everyday engineering computations involving macroscopic cracks and shear bands, which are much larger than the atomistic length and time scales. To reduce the computational effort, multiscale methods are required, which are able to couple a continuum description of the structure with an atomistic description. In such paradigms, cracks and dislocations are explicitly modeled at the atomistic scale, whilst a self-consistent continuum model elsewhere. Many multiscale methods for fracture are developed for "fictitious" materials based on "simple" potentials such as the Lennard-Jones potential. Moreover, multiscale methods for evolving cracks are rare. Efficient methods to coarse grain the fine scale defects are missing. However, the existing multiscale methods for fracture do not adaptively adjust the fine scale domain as the crack propagates. Most methods, therefore only "enlarge" the fine scale domain and therefore drastically increase computational cost. Adaptive adjustment requires the fine scale domain to be refined and coarsened. One of the major difficulties in multiscale methods for fracture is to up-scale fracture related material information from the fine scale to the coarse scale, in particular for complex crack problems. Most of the existing approaches therefore were applied to examples with comparatively few macroscopic cracks. Key contributions The bridging scale method is enhanced using the phantom node method so that cracks can be modeled at the coarse scale. To ensure self-consistency in the bulk, a virtual atom cluster is devised providing the response of the intact material at the coarse scale. A molecular statics model is employed in the fine scale where crack propagation is modeled by naturally breaking the bonds. The fine scale and coarse scale models are coupled by enforcing the displacement boundary conditions on the ghost atoms. An energy criterion is used to detect the crack tip location. Adaptive refinement and coarsening schemes are developed and implemented during the crack propagation. The results were observed to be in excellent agreement with the pure atomistic simulations. The developed multiscale method is one of the first adaptive multiscale method for fracture. A robust and simple three dimensional coarse graining technique to convert a given atomistic region into an equivalent coarse region, in the context of multiscale fracture has been developed. The developed method is the first of its kind. The developed coarse graining technique can be applied to identify and upscale the defects like: cracks, dislocations and shear bands. The current method has been applied to estimate the equivalent coarse scale models of several complex fracture patterns arrived from the pure atomistic simulations. The upscaled fracture pattern agree well with the actual fracture pattern. The error in the potential energy of the pure atomistic and the coarse grained model was observed to be acceptable. A first novel meshless adaptive multiscale method for fracture has been developed. The phantom node method is replaced by a meshless differential reproducing kernel particle method. The differential reproducing kernel particle method is comparatively more expensive but allows for a more "natural" coupling between the two scales due to the meshless interpolation functions. The higher order continuity is also beneficial. The centro symmetry parameter is used to detect the crack tip location. The developed multiscale method is employed to study the complex crack propagation. Results based on the meshless adaptive multiscale method were observed to be in excellent agreement with the pure atomistic simulations. The developed multiscale methods are applied to study the fracture in practical materials like Graphene and Graphene on Silicon surface. The bond stretching and the bond reorientation were observed to be the net mechanisms of the crack growth in Graphene. The influence of time step on the crack propagation was studied using two different time steps. Pure atomistic simulations of fracture in Graphene on Silicon surface are presented. Details of the three dimensional multiscale method to study the fracture in Graphene on Silicon surface are discussed.

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

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

N2 - A main goal of this research project is to develop models for space allocation and management in universities. Based on the experiences of space management in other areas of public administration and research institutions, possible methods for space management in higher education have been analyzed. A management model has been developed which reacts to universities internal and external parameters. Space allocation in higher education is depending on external conditions as well as on internal processes and structures. Knowing those parameters has been assumed to build the foundation to appoint the factors of success for the implementation of new space management models.

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

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

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

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

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

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

The efficiency and effectiveness of these model is majorly influenced by the cyclic constitutive parameters. Although a lot of research is being carried out on these relatively new models, little or no details exist in literature about the model based identification of the cyclic constitutive parameters. This could be attributed to the difficulties and complexities of the inverse modeling of such complex phenomena. A variety of optimization strategies are available for the solution of the sum of least-squares problems as usually done in the field of model calibration. However for the back analysis (calibration) of the soil response to oscillatory load functions, this paper gives insight into the model calibration challenges and also puts forward a method for the inverse modeling of cyclic loaded foundation response such that high quality solutions are obtained with minimum computational effort. Therefore model responses are produced which adequately describes what would otherwise be experienced in the laboratory or field.

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

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

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

Jahrhunderts oder "Die Schwierigkeit zu wohnen" N2 - Die Bau-Ausstellung zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts oder „Die Schwierigkeit zu wohnen“, so lautet der Titel der Arbeit und legt damit ihren Fokus offen. Sie betrachtet ein um 1900 aufkommendes Ausstellungsphänomen in seinen ersten Dekaden; in einer Zeit, in der das Wohnen problematisiert wurde. Der Praxis des Wohnens ist Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts seine Selbstverständlichkeit abgesprochen worden. Die Bau-Ausstellung wird als ein Symptom dieses Verlusts interpretiert und zugleich als Versuch, ihm entgegenzuwirken. Statt sie innerdisziplinär als eine architekturgeschichtliche Episode der Moderne rein positivistisch zu beschreiben, legt die vorliegende Arbeit im Typus der Bau-Ausstellung eine weit reichende Problematik frei, die kulturphilosophische ebenso wie medientheoretische Dimensionen hat: Inwieweit lässt sich das Wohnen überhaupt ausstellen? Wie kann man eine alltägliche Praxis, die kaum eine Definition erlaubt, zeigen? Den Umgang mit dieser Aporie untersucht die Arbeit.

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

The obtained solutions are expressed in terms of Mittag-Leffer functions. For more details we refer the interested reader to [3] where it is also presented an operational approach based on the two Laplace transform.

ED - Kornadt, Oliver T1 - Entwicklung eines Sommerreferenzjahres zur Bestimmung der sommerlichen Überhitzung von Gebäuden T2 - Bauphysiktage Kaiserslautern 2015, Kaiserslautern, 21-22 Oktober 2015 N2 - Die Ableitung von sommer-fokussierten warmen Referenzjahren aus langjährigen Klimadaten erfolgt in Europa bisher nach unterschiedlichen, länderspezifischen Methoden, die sich in der Regel allein auf die Trockentemperatur beziehen und in der Auswahl eines zusammenhängenden realen Sommerhalbjahres resultieren. Simulationsergebnisse zur sommerlichen Überhitzung von natürlich belüfteten Gebäuden in Deutschland und Großbritannien zeigen jedoch für einige Wetterstationen weniger Überhitzung für Simulationen mit dem sommer-fokussierten Referenzjahr als für solche mit dem entsprechenden Testreferenzjahr (TRY) für den gleichen Ort. Dies gilt insbesondere dann, wenn einzelne Monate miteinander verglichen werden. Neben der Wahl eines kompletten Halbjahres, das sowohl extrem warme als auch vergleichsweise kühle Monate beinhalten kann, liegt dies vor allem begründet in der fehlenden Berücksichtigung der Solarstrahlung bei der Auswahl eines warmen Referenzjahres, die jedoch eine wichtige Rolle für sommerliche Überhitzungserscheinungen in Gebäuden spielt. Eine verlässliche, allgemein anerkannte Methode zur Erstellung von sommer-fokussierten Referenzjahren erscheint daher auch im Hinblick auf die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen in der Europäischen Union, die Strategien zur natürlichen Belüftung von Neubauten und Sanierungen begünstigen, erforderlich. Diese Arbeit präsentiert einen Ansatz zur Erstellung eines Sommerreferenzjahres (Summer Reference Year – SRY) aus dem TRY eines gegebenen Ortes und langjährigen Klimadaten. Die existierenden TRY-Daten werden hierbei skaliert, um den Bedingungen für Trockentemperatur und Solarstrahlung von nah-extremen Kandidatenjahren zu entsprechen, die separat über einen statistischen Ansatz ausgewählt werden. Anschließend werden Feuchttemperatur, Windgeschwindigkeit und Luftdruck des TRY durch lineare Korrelationen mit der Trockentemperatur angepasst, um die entsprechenden SRY-Daten zu erhalten. Der Vorteil dieser Methode liegt darin, dass das grundlegende Wettermuster des TRY erhalten bleibt und somit eine klare Relation zwischen SRY und TRY besteht, die eine Vergleichbarkeit von Simulationsergebnissen gewährleistet. Über vergleichende Gebäudesimulationen mit dem zugrundeliegenden TRY und langjährigen Klimadatensätzen kann nachgewiesen werden, dass sich das SRY zur Ermittlung sommerlicher Überhitzungserscheinungen in natürlich belüfteten Gebäuden eignet. Weiterhin kann gezeigt werden, dass das SRY im Gegensatz zur direkten Nutzung eines Kandidatenjahres für einen nah-extremen Sommer die Möglichkeit eines monatsscharfen Vergleichs mit dem TRY erlaubt und frei von wenig repräsentativen Besonderheiten ist, die in den entsprechenden Kandidatenjahren vorhanden sein können.

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

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

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

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

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