In vorliegender Studie werden die Wohnstandortpräferenzen der Sinus-Milieugruppen in Dresden über eine standardisierte Befragung (n=318) untersucht. Es wird unterschieden zwischen handlungsleitenden Wohnstandortpräferenzen, die durch Anhaltspunkte auf der Handlungsebene stärker in Betracht gezogen werden sollten, und Wohnstandortpräferenzen, welche eher orientierenden Charakter haben. Die Wohnstandortpräferenzen werden untersucht anhand der Kategorien Ausstattung/Zustand der Wohnung/des näheren Wohnumfeldes, Versorgungsstruktur, soziales Umfeld, Baustrukturtyp, Ortsgebundenheit sowie des Aspektes des Images eines Stadtviertels. Um die Befragten den Sinus-Milieugruppen zuordnen zu können, wird ein Lebensweltsegment-Modell entwickelt, welches den Anspruch hat, die Sinus-Milieugruppen in der Tendenz abzubilden. Die Studie kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass die Angehörigen der verschiedenen Lebensweltsegmente in jeder Kategorie - wenn auch z.T. auf geringerem Niveau - signifikante Unterschiede in der Bewertung einzelner Wohnstandortpräferenzen aufweisen.
Aktionsräume in Dresden
(2012)
In vorliegender Studie werden die Aktionsräume von Befragten in Dresden über eine standardisierte Befragung (n=360) untersucht. Die den Aktionsräumen zugrundeliegenden Aktivitäten werden unterschieden in Einkaufen für den täglichen Bedarf, Ausgehen (z.B. in Café, Kneipe, Gaststätte), Erholung im Freien (z.B. spazieren gehen, Nutzung von Grünanlagen) und private Geselligkeit (z.B. Feiern, Besuch von Verwandten/Freunden). Der Aktionsradius wird unterschieden in Wohnviertel, Nachbarviertel und sonstiges weiteres Stadtgebiet. Um aus den vier betrachteten Aktivitäten einen umfassenden Kennwert für den durchschnittlichen Aktionsradius eines Befragten zu bilden, wird ein Modell für den Kennwert eines Aktionsradius entwickelt. Die Studie kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass das Alter der Befragten einen signifikanten – wenn auch geringen – Einfluss auf den Aktionsradius hat. Das Haushaltsnettoeinkommen hat einen mit Einschränkung signifikanten, ebenfalls geringen Einfluss auf alltägliche Aktivitäten der Befragten.
We present an extended finite element formulation for dynamic fracture of piezo-electric materials. The method is developed in the context of linear elastic fracture mechanics. It is applied to mode I and mixed mode-fracture for quasi-steady cracks. An implicit time integration scheme is exploited. The results are compared to results obtained with the boundary element method and show excellent agreement.
This paper presents a novel numerical procedure for computing limit and shakedown loads of structures using a node-based smoothed FEM in combination with a primal–dual algorithm. An associated primal–dual form based on the von Mises yield criterion is adopted. The primal-dual algorithm together with a Newton-like iteration are then used to solve this associated primal–dual form to determine simultaneously both approximate upper and quasi-lower bounds of the plastic collapse limit and the shakedown limit. The present formulation uses only linear approximations and its implementation into finite element programs is quite simple. Several numerical examples are given to show the reliability, accuracy, and generality of the present formulation compared with other available methods.
The concept of isogeometric analysis, where functions that are used to describe geometry in CAD software are used to approximate the unknown fields in numerical simulations, has received great attention in recent years. The method has the potential to have profound impact on engineering design, since the task of meshing, which in some cases can add significant overhead, has been circumvented. Much of the research effort has been focused on finite element implementations of the isogeometric concept, but at present, little has been seen on the application to the Boundary Element Method. The current paper proposes an Isogeometric Boundary Element Method (BEM), which we term IGABEM, applied to two-dimensional elastostatic problems using Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS). We find it is a natural fit with the isogeometric concept since both the NURBS approximation and BEM deal with quantities entirely on the boundary. The method is verified against analytical solutions where it is seen that superior accuracies are achieved over a conventional quadratic isoparametric BEM implementation.
Meshfree methods (MMs) such as the element free Galerkin (EFG)method have gained popularity because of some advantages over other numerical methods such as the finite element method (FEM). A group of problems that have attracted a great deal of attention from the EFG method community includes the treatment of large deformations and dealing with strong discontinuities such as cracks. One efficient solution to model cracks is adding special enrichment functions to the standard shape functions such as extended FEM, within the FEM context, and the cracking particles method, based on EFG method. It is well known that explicit time integration in dynamic applications is conditionally stable. Furthermore, in enriched methods, the critical time step may tend to very small values leading to computationally expensive simulations. In this work, we study the stability of enriched MMs and propose two mass-lumping strategies. Then we show that the critical time step for enriched MMs based on lumped mass matrices is of the same order as the critical time step of MMs without enrichment. Moreover, we show that, in contrast to extended FEM, even with a consistent mass matrix, the critical time step does not vanish even when the crack directly crosses a node.
A simple multiscale analysis framework for heterogeneous solids based on a computational homogenization technique is presented. The macroscopic strain is linked kinematically to the boundary displacement of a circular or spherical representative volume which contains the microscopic information of the material. The macroscopic stress is obtained from the energy principle between the macroscopic scale and the microscopic scale. This new method is applied to several standard examples to show its accuracy and consistency of the method proposed.

This paper presents a novel numerical procedure based on the framework of isogeometric analysis for static, free vibration, and buckling analysis of laminated composite plates using the first-order shear deformation theory. The isogeometric approach utilizes non-uniform rational B-splines to implement for the quadratic, cubic, and quartic elements. Shear locking problem still exists in the stiffness formulation, and hence, it can be significantly alleviated by a stabilization technique. Several numerical examples are presented to show the performance of the method, and the results obtained are compared with other available ones.
