N2 - The electronically virtual reality of monuments is a new, extraordinarily various media-technical phenomenon; it describes the original form of real monuments, it transforms of an abstract description in word and picture in an immaterial reality. The thesis tries to give answers on the following questions: Is the electronically virtual reality a method of the stimulation of the public in dealing with monuments? Is the electronically virtual reality of monuments an immaterial certificate of the history of civilisation in the future? Is the real one and the virtual monument without reservation mutual interchangeable, is the real monument replaceable by the virtual one? The answer of the questions depends on the steps of the perfection of the electronically virtual reality of monuments.

They form the basis for the geometrical models of high-resolution analysis, so called image-based analysis. However especially in 3D, discretizations of these models reach easily the size of 100 Mill. degrees of freedoms and require extensive hardware resources in terms of main memory and computing power to solve the numerical model. Consequently, the focus of this work is to combine and adapt numerical solution methods to reduce the memory demand first and then the computation time and therewith enable an execution of the image-based analysis on modern computer desktops. Hence, the numerical model is a straightforward grid discretization of the voxel-based (pixels with a third dimension) geometry which omits the boundary detection algorithms and allows reduced storage of the finite element data structure and a matrix-free solution algorithm. This in turn reduce the effort of almost all applied grid-based solution techniques and results in memory efficient and numerically stable algorithms for the microstructural models. Two variants of the matrix-free algorithm are presented. The efficient iterative solution method of conjugate gradients is used with matrix-free applicable preconditioners such as the Jacobi and the especially suited multigrid method. The jagged material boundaries of the voxel-based mesh are smoothed through embedded boundary elements which contain different material information at the integration point and are integrated sub-cell wise though without additional boundary detection. The efficiency of the matrix-free methods can be retained. N2 - Moderne bildgebende Verfahren wie Mikro-Computertomographie (μCT), Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) und Rasterelektronenmikroskopie (SEM) liefern nicht-invasiv hochauflösende Bilder der Mikrostruktur von Materialien. Sie bilden die Grundlage der geometrischen Modelle der hochauflösenden bildbasierten Analysis. Allerdings erreichen vor allem in 3D die Diskretisierungen dieser Modelle leicht die Größe von 100 Mill. Freiheitsgraden und erfordern umfangreiche Hardware-Ressourcen in Bezug auf Hauptspeicher und Rechenleistung, um das numerische Modell zu lösen. Der Fokus dieser Arbeit liegt daher darin, numerische Lösungsmethoden zu kombinieren und anzupassen, um den Speicherplatzbedarf und die Rechenzeit zu reduzieren und damit eine Ausführung der bildbasierten Analyse auf modernen Computer-Desktops zu ermöglichen. Daher ist als numerisches Modell eine einfache Gitterdiskretisierung der voxelbasierten (Pixel mit der Tiefe als dritten Dimension) Geometrie gewählt, die die Oberflächenerstellung weglässt und eine reduzierte Speicherung der finiten Elementen und einen matrixfreien Lösungsalgorithmus ermöglicht. Dies wiederum verringert den Aufwand von fast allen angewandten gitterbasierten Lösungsverfahren und führt zu Speichereffizienz und numerisch stabilen Algorithmen für die Mikrostrukturmodelle. Es werden zwei Varianten der Anpassung der matrixfreien Lösung präsentiert, die Element-für-Element Methode und eine Knoten-Kanten-Variante. Die Methode der konjugierten Gradienten in Kombination mit dem Mehrgitterverfahren als sehr effizienten Vorkonditionierer wird für den matrixfreien Lösungsalgorithmus adaptiert. Der stufige Verlauf der Materialgrenzen durch die voxelbasierte Diskretisierung wird durch Elemente geglättet, die am Integrationspunkt unterschiedliche Materialinformationen enthalten und über Teilzellen integriert werden (embedded boundary elements). Die Effizienz der matrixfreien Verfahren bleibt erhalten.

In isogeometric analysis, basis functions used for constructing geometric models in computer-aided design(CAD) are also employed to discretize the partial differential equations(PDEs) for numerical analysis. Non-uniform rational B-Splines(NURBS) are the most commonly used basis functions in CAD. However, they may not be ideal for numerical analysis where local refinement is required. The alternative method GIFT deploys different splines for geometry and numerical analysis. NURBS are utilized for the geometry representation, while for the field solution, PHT/RHT-splines are used. PHT-splines not only inherit the useful properties of B-splines and NURBS, but also possess the capabilities of local refinement and hierarchical structure. The smooth basis function properties of PHT-splines make them suitable for analysis purposes. While most problems considered in isogeometric analysis can be solved efficiently when the solution is smooth, many non-trivial problems have rough solutions. For example, this can be caused by the presence of re-entrant corners in the domain. For such problems, a tensor-product basis (as in the case of NURBS) is less suitable for resolving the singularities that appear since refinement propagates throughout the computational domain. Hierarchical bases and local refinement (as in the case of PHT-splines) allow for a more efficient way to resolve these singularities by adding more degrees of freedom where they are necessary. In order to drive the adaptive refinement, an efficient recovery-based error estimator is proposed in this thesis. The estimator produces a recovery solution which is a more accurate approximation than the computed numerical solution. Several two- and three-dimensional numerical investigations with PHT-splines of higher order and continuity prove that the proposed method is capable of obtaining results with higher accuracy, better convergence, fewer degrees of freedom and less computational cost than NURBS for smooth solution problems. The adaptive GIFT method utilizing PHT-splines with the recovery-based error estimator is used for solutions with discontinuities or singularities where adaptive local refinement in particular domains of interest achieves higher accuracy with fewer degrees of freedom. This method also proves that it can handle complicated multi-patch domains for two- and three-dimensional problems outperforming uniform refinement in terms of degrees of freedom and computational cost.

This work presents paper-laminated sandwich elements with a core of corrugated paperboard that can serve as architectural components with a load-bearing capacity after a linear folding process. Conventional methods either use paper tubes or glued layers of honeycomb panels. In contrast, the folded components are extremely lightweight, provide the material strength exactly where it is statically required and offer many possibilities for design variants. After removing stripes of the paper lamination, the sandwich can be folded in a linear way at this position. Without the resistance of the missing paper, the sandwich core can be easily compressed. The final angle of the folding correlates with the width of the removed paper stripe. As such, this angle can be described by a simple geometric equation. The geometrical basis for the production of folded sandwich elements was established and many profile types were generated such as triangular, square or rectangular shapes. The method allows the easy planning and fast production of components that can be used in the construction sector. A triangle profile was used to create a load-bearing frame as supporting structure for an experimental building. This first permanent building completely made of corrugated cardboard was evaluated in a two-year test to confirm the efficiency of the developed components. In addition to the frame shown in this paper, large-scale sandwich elements with a core of folded components can be used to fabricate lightweight ceilings and large-scale sandwich components. The method enables the efficient production of linearly folded cardboard elements which can replace normal wooden components like beams, pillars or frames and bring a fully recycled material in the context of architectural construction.

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

Besonderes Augenmerk wird auf die Detektion, die Lokalisierung und die Quantifizierung von Systemveränderungen gerichtet. Für diese Ziele werden -basierend auf Schwingungsmessungen- modale Parameter sowie Ein- und Ausgangsgrößen im Frequenzbereich extrahiert. Die in dieser Arbeit entwickelte Adaption des Polyreferenz-Verfahrens beruht auf einer veränderten Bestimmung der Fundamentalmatrix mit Hilfe der verallgemeinerten Singulärwertzerlegung. Eine Vorfilterung, die eine Reduktion der Frequenzanteile im Signal bewirkt, ist dabei Voraussetzung. Diese basiert auf dem Einsatz rekursiver Filtertechiken und der einfachen Singulärwertzerlegung. Als Resultat können modale Parameter auch im Falle, wenn eng benachbarte und verrauschte Signalanteile vorliegen oder nur wenige Mess- und Anregungspunkte zur Verfügung stehen, präzise bestimmt und damit auch sehr geringe Syemveränderungen detektiert werden. Die mit dem adaptierten Polyreferenz-Verfahren extrahierten modalen Parameter werden in der Lokalisierung von Systemveränderungen eingesetzt. Zur Bestimmung modaler Parameter auch an realen Bauwerken wird die Konstruktion eines Impulshammers vorgestellt. Besonderes Gewicht wird dabei auf die Gestaltung des Erregerkraftspektrums gelegt. Die Arbeit enthält eine mögliche Vorgehensweise zum Abgleich von Finite-Elemente Modellen. In vielen praxisnahen Fällen sind weit weniger modale Parameter vorhanden, als freie, zum Abgleich bestimmte Parameter gesucht werden. Das Gleichungssystem ist schlechtgestellt und benötigt eine Regularisierung. Eine andere Möglichkeit zur Korrektur von Rechenmodellen bietet das Projektive Eingangsgrößenverfahren, das auf der Basis unvollständig gemessener Ein- und Ausgangsgrößen arbeitet. In einer Versagenswahrscheinlichkeitsstudie wird die Robustheit des Verfahrens gegenüber! Rauscheinflüssen untersucht N2 - This PhD thesis is related to the field of system identificaton focusing on detection of occurence, localisation and amount assessment of damage. This is done as well by extraction of modal parameters as input- and output residuals from vibration measurements. The presented work describes a developed adaption of the polyreference-procedure. It is based on a determination of the fundamental matrix by using the generalized singular value decomposition. A pre-filtering of the time series which kept the signals in a narrow frequenvy band higly supports this application. Two kinds of filter techniques can be combined: The classical way of recursive filter technique and the tool of the singular value decomposition. Therefore, modal parameters can be determined precisley in different cases if the data are strongly corrupted by noise, only few measuring- and excitation points are available, close-spa! ced frequency parts appear in the signal. This facts allow the detection of small structural changes in dynamic systems. The modal parameters extracted by the adapted polyreference-procedure are applied to localise the damage. For the extraction of modal parameters on real structures the construction of an impact hammer is presented with particular respect to the configuration of the excitation spectra. This work contains a possible way for a finite element model updating. In many relevant cases, if much more free parameters are searched than modal parameters are available, this problem is ill-posed and needs regularisation. The Projective Input Residual Method (PIRM) follows another way to correct computational models. It is operational on the extraction of input- and output residuals. Within a reliability study the robustness of the PIRM against noise influences is investigated.
