Diskrete Arbeitsvorgänge lassen sich mit Hilfe von Petri--Netzen formal beschreiben. Petri--Netze basieren auf der Graphentheorie. Die Elemente zweier Knotenmengen werden Stellen und Transitionen genannt und sind durch gerichtete Kanten miteinander verknüpft. Stellen repräsentieren Bedingungen oder Zustände und Transitionen Ereignisse oder Vorgänge. Durch Petri--Netze ist es möglich nicht nur eine statische Vorgänger--Nachfolger--Struktur abzubilden, vielmehr können ebenso Ereignisse, Alternativen und Nebenläufigkeiten modelliert werden. In diesem Beitrag wird vorgestellt, wie ein Bauablauf gegeben durch ein Vorgangsknoten-Netzplan mit sehr wenigen Schritten auf ein Bedingungs/Ereignis-Netz abgebildet werden kann. Alle notwenigen Teilschritte wie das Bilden von Teilnetzen oder das Vergröbern und Verfeinern von Knoten basieren auf einem mathematisch abgesicherten Fundament. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Formulierungen von Bauabläufen ist die Theorie der Petri-Netze eine allgemeingültige Theorie und kann in vielen Bereichen eingesetzt werden. Die Verwendung einer solchen mathematischen Abstraktion ermöglicht die Wiederverwendung von bereits entwickelten Lösungsansätzen. So können die gewonnenen Erfahrungen auch bei der Modellie-rung von anderen Arbeitsvorgängen verwendet werden.
This study aims at constructing the simulation system of distribution patterns of solar irradiance, sunshine duration and sky factor with the user-friendly interface and sharing this system with users on the Internet. The characteristics of this simulation system are as follows: (1) Web-based user interface, (2) Accessible system through the Internet and (3) Sunlight and skylight simulation based on physically accurate equations with considering various sky conditions and the reflection from the surface of objects. As a case study, impact of the development plans are analyzed and evaluated using this system. Solar irradiance, sunshine duration and sky factor are calculated at the surface of the buildings and open spaces every 10 minutes from 8 to 16 on the winter solstice. The values of these indices are expressed as the ratio to those calculated under the condition with no buildings. In conclusion, this web-based simulation system can be useful for visualizing the sunlight and skylight conditions on outdoor open spaces and the surface of the buildings to evaluate development plans objectively. Users can make access to the system from almost all of the computers connected with the Internet and modify parameters by themselves to get desirable results. Further improvement of the user interface is necessary using more advanced technology of CGI, Java and JavaScript.
Für den Entwurf der i.a. aus langen schmalen Rechtecken bestehenden Schal- bzw. Werkpläne wird eine Entwurfsunterstützung vorgestellt, bei der die Größe der Rechtecke wie immer festgelegt wird, die Lage der Rechtecke aber durch topologische Angaben. Letztere bilden programmtechnisch Bedingungen, wobei zwischen Berühr- und Bündigkeitsbedingen unterschieden wird. Diese Angaben positionieren das neue Rechteck im Bezug zu einem bereits platzierten. Zum Beispiel erlaubt die Angabe, die Säule ist oberhalb des Fundamentes und belastet dieses mittig, eine eindeutige Festlegung der Lage der Säule bei gegebener Lage des Fundamentes und gegebenen Abmessungen beider Rechtecke. Die Formulierung mittels Bedingungen hat den Vorteil daß diese auch bei Änderung von Abmessungen gültig bleiben. Die hier vorgestellte Eingabeart der relativen Positionierung ist eine Erweiterung des Orthomodus, wie er bei Bau-CAD-Programmen stets gefunden wird.
We show a transformation K which allows us to rewrite the Dirac equation in its covariant form in a purely real quaternionic equation. We discuss how this transformation allows us for obtaining a involutive symmetry of the Dirac equation, as well as one simplification of the traditional vector of currents of the Dirac equation in traditional form. We also show the corresponding quaternionic equation for the problem of charge conjugation in the hole theory, and the quaternionic equation of conservation of currents. Finally, we discuss one decomposition of the quaternionic Dirac operator in two Maxwell's operators corresponding to time-harmonic case in homogeneous media, without sources which surprisingly agrees with the well known relation in quantum mechanics between the frequency ù and the impulse p E=p²c²+m²c, where E denotes the energy.
With the aid of factorization of the Schrödinger operator by quaternionic differential operators of first order proposed in recent works by S. Bernstein and K. Gürlebeck we study the system describing forcefree magnetic fields with nonconstant proportionality factor, the static Maxwell system for inhomogeneous media, the Beltrami condition and the Dirac equation with different types of potentials depending on one variable. We obtain integral representations for solutions of these systems.
Computational Steering provides methods for the integration of modeling, simulation, visualization, data analysis and post processing. The user has full control over a running simulation and the possibility to modify objects (geometry and other properties), boundary conditions and other parameters of the system interactively. The objective of such a system is to explore the effects of changes made immediately and thus to optimize the target problem interactively. We present a computational steering based system for fluid flow problems in civil engineering. It is based on three software components as shown in figure 1. The modeler is the CAD-system AutoCAD, which offers a powerful programming interface allowing an efficient access to the geometric data. It also offers convenient manipulators for geometric objects. The simulation kernel is a Lattice-Boltzmann (LB) solver for the Navier-Stokes equations, which is especially suitable for instationary flows in complex geometries. For the visualization and postprocessing we use the software tool AVS, which provides a powerful programming interface and allows the efficient visualization of flow fields. These three components are interconnected through two communication modules and three interfaces as depicted in figure 1. Interface 1 is responsible for the transformation of the modified system for the simulation kernel, interface 2 is responsible for the proper preparation of the simulation data whereas interface 3 transforms the data from the modeler into a format suitable for the visualization system. The whole system is synchronized by the two communication modules.

At present time neuronet's technologies have got a wide application in a different fields of technique. At the same time they give insufficient consideration to using neuron nets in the field of building. Use of approximating neuron nets will allow to definite the deflected mode of constructions elements using noticeably less computing facilities then by using universal methods, finite-element method for instance. Today neuron nets are used for calculation separate elements of building constructions. In this work use of neuron nets for calculation deflected mode of construction which consists of many elements is consider. The main idea of suggested analysis is using neuron nets for calculation internal intensities and transferences pieces of model which are selected by there functional destination. For example, a plate is destine for adoption intensity distributed among area, the purpose of core is taking up surface distributed intensity. Elements involved as intensity converter. Plate serve for intensities dispersion and their transfer. A template is associated with functional destination. A template regards as composition of model elements which has define functional destinations. A single template can incarnate several functional destinations. On receipt values of components transference the estimation of their permissibility is put into practice. In the case of detection a violation of permissible limit, in the component database is making a search for component with analogous functional destination, according to the type of violation. If such component is found than a change a previous component into new one is realized. Thus besides control a condition of construction by components there is a possibility to make a search for decisions of revealed problem....
Cost and Schedule Controlling in Relation to Liquidity Management during Construction Projects
(2004)
The present paper describes a software application which can be used for relating the scheduled events of a construction project with the respective financial parameters, leading to an overall improvement in general controlling and liquidity management. For this purpose, existing construction schedules are taken and details of the assignment are recorded. Thus it becomes possible to assess a future payment status should changes in the designated schedule occur.
The development of a consistent material model for textile reinforced concrete requires the formulation and calibration of several sub-models on different resolution scales. Each of these models represents the material structure at the corresponding scale. While the models at the micro-level are able to capture the fundamental failure and damage mechanisms of the material components (e.g. filament rupture and debonding from the matrix) their computational costs limit their application to the small size representative unit cells of the material structure. On the other hand, the macro-level models provide a sufficient performance at the expense of limited range of applicability. Due to the complex structuring of the textile reinforced concrete at several levels (filament - yarn - textile - matrix) it is a non-trivial task to develop a multiscale model from scratch. It is rather more effective to develop a set of conceptually related sub-models for each structural level covering the selected phenomena of the material behavior. The homogenized effective material properties obtained at the lower level may be verified and validated using experiments and models at the higher level(s). In this paper the development of a consistent material model for textile reinforced concrete is presented. Load carrying and failure mechanisms at the micro, meso and macro scales are described and models with the focus on the specified scales are introduced. The models currently being developed in the framework of the collaborative research center are classified and evaluated with respect to the failure mechanisms being captured. The micromechanical modeling of the yarn and bonding behavior is discussed in detail and the correspondence with the experiments focused on the selected failure and interaction mechanisms is shown. The example of modeling the bond layer demonstrates the application of the presented strategy.

Trotz der langjährigen Erfahrung bei der Anwendung objektorientierter Konzepte bei der Modellierung von Gebäuden ist es bisher nicht gelungen, ein allgemein anerkanntes Gebäudemodell im Rechner abzubilden. Das mag zum einen daran liegen, daß die Standardisierung eines solchen Modells bis heute zu keinem Abschluß gekommen ist. Zum anderen aber scheint vor allem die Problematik der Abbildung eines solchen Gebäudemodells in das Objektmodell einer Programmiersprache bisher unterschätzt worden zu sein. Die erhoffte Durchgängigkeit von objektorientierter Analyse, Entwurf und Programmierung gelingt bei Anwendungen für Entwurfsaufgaben nicht. Das gilt vor allem für Anwendungen, die frühe Entwurfsphasen unterstützen und damit erst zur Definition eines Gebäudemodells beitragen. Im Bereich der Softwareentwicklung wird das Konzept des Objektes als Ordnungsbegriff zur Strukturierung von Softwaremodulen benutzt. Die Übertragung dieser Ordnung in die Welt des Ingenieurs oder Architekten zur Bezeichnung eines konkreten Elements aus einem Modell (Raum 42 aus der Menge aller Räume des Gebäudes Blumenstraße 7) kann daher nur zu begrenzten Erfolgen führen. Aus der Analyse der Widersprüchlichkeit des Objektbegriffs zwischen Softwareentwickler (Programmierer) und Softwareanwender (Ingenieur, Architekt) wird im folgenden ein Laufzeitsystem für dynamische Objektstrukturen entwickelt, das es dem Softwareentwickler erlaubt, sowohl auf die Struktur als auch auf die Ausprägung eines Modells zuzugreifen. Dem Softwareanwender können damit Werkzeuge zur Verfügung gestellt werden, die es ihm gestatten, Gebäudemodelle zu definieren. Das Laufzeitsystem enthält zum einen eine Reihe von Klassen, die es ermöglichen, die Struktur von Anwenderobjekten dynamisch zu beschreiben und zu analysieren. Eine zweite Art von Klassen erlaubt das Erzeugen und Verändern von Anwenderobjekten, die diesen Strukturen entsprechen
Building design, realization, operation and refurbishment have to take into account the environmental impacts as well as the resulting costs over a long period of time. LCA methods had to be developed for buildings because of their complexity, their long life duration and through a large number of actors who are involved. This was realized by integrating life cycle analysis, life cycle costing and building product models in integrated LCA models. However the use of such models leads to difficulties. The principal ones are the uncertainty treatment in LCA models and the lack of experience of practitioners who are not LCA specialists. Answers to these problems are the management of uncertainty and the development of simplified models for building design, construction and operation. This can be achieved with the mean of experimental plans or Monte Carlo simulation. The paper will focus on how these techniques can be used, what are their possibilities and disadvantages, particularly concerning the development of simplified models.
In recent years, the survey is performed for repair, such as a bridge and a building built in past, spending great expense. And it is anxious for the survey technique that doesn’t need cost and time more. Then, we made an idea of the technique of precise 3D model creation by 2D pictures. However, the technique of performing the improvement in accuracy of convergent photographing and automatic acquisition of corresponding points was not established. Therefore, in this research, we try to obtain a semi-automation of corresponding points acquisition from initial corresponding points and the improvement in accuracy of convergent photographing. Moreover, we applied the research to the used house of Japanese real estate, and the applicable field was selected as the high needs of the residence of 3D model. And we developed the system that everyone could create Web / 3D model house by VRML easily without requiring expensive apparatuses or expertise.
The dynamic behaviour of shells, which are widely used in construction and mechanical engineering as critical components of machinery and 3-D structures, under static and dynamic loadings is described by system of deep nonlinear differential equations. Solution of these equations can be received with assistance of technique basing on a modern numerical algorithms and computer modeling.. The system of nonlinear differential equations of vibration of the shells is proposed taking into account the inertia forces in the tangential and normal directions. Its solution is based on combination of parameter prolongation method, finite-difference method and the Newton-Kantorovich iterative algorithm that allows plotting the loading trajectories and determination of bifurcation points on them. Package of Applied Programs >SEVSOR< is a computation means to be used in research of deformation, stability and vibration in thin axically-symmetric shells of complicated shape Input data include information on shell geometry, physical and mechanical properties, bearing conditions, types of loadings and load application. Frame output of motion forms in real time or either in decelerated or accelerated time scales for creating cartoons or video films is used for analysis of the compound dynamic processes in shell-type structures.
In [1] a quaternionic reformulation of the time-harmonic Maxwell equations for chiral media was proposed and used in [2] in order to construct complete systems of quaternionic fundamental solutions convenient for numerical analysis of scattering boundary value problems. In the present contribution we give a quaternionic reformulation of time-dependent Maxwell's equations for chiral media. The Maxwell system is written as a single quaternionic equation. We obtain a fundamental solution of this equation and use it for solving Maxwell's system with sources. This is a joint work with V. V. Kravchenko. [1] Khmelnytskaya, K. V., Kravchenko, V. V. and H.

Im Rahmen eines BMWT-geförderten Projekts entstand innerhalb einer Kooperation der Ritter Energie-und Umwelttechnik mit der Universität Karlsruhe (Fachbereich Bauphysik und Technischer Ausbau) eine bedarfsgeführte Fuzzy-Regelung für eine Lüftungsanlage mit Wärmerückgewinnung. Da bei Niedrigenergie-und Passivhäusern die Wärmeverluste über die Lüftung vergleichsweise hoch sind, besteht hier noch Einsparbedarf.Eine bedarfsgeführte Regelung kann die Lüftungsrate reduzieren, wenn z.B. mehrere Bewohner abwesend sind oder Fensterlüftung betrieben wird und die Luftqualität somit gut genug ist. Ausserdem wird die Lüftung reduziert, wenn die Raumluft in der Heizperiode zu trocken wird. Die sog. Fuzzy-Logik eignet sich gut für solche Regelungsaufgaben, bei denen menschliches Empfinden und Entscheiden nachgebildet werden soll. Fuzzy bedeutet eigentlich >unscharf<, d.h. es wird mit unscharfen Begriffen gearbeitet. Eine typische Anweisung in einer Fuzzy-Regelbasis lautet z.B. >Wenn die Luft trocken ist dann wenig lüften<. Der Prozess, in dem die Zugehörigkeit einer scharfen Messgröße zu den verschiedenen Fuzzy-Sets wie >trocken<, >mittel< und >feucht< bestimmt wird, heisst >Fuzzifizierung<. Das Anwenden der Regeln und das Extrahieren des unscharfen Ergebnisses heisst >Interferenz<. Abschließend wird eine >Defuzzifizierung< vorgenommen, um wieder ein scharfes Ergebnis zu erhalten. Die Fuzzy-Lüftungsregelung hat sich in Feldtests sehr gut bewährt. Simulationsrechnungen mit dem Gebäudesimulationsprogramm >ColSim< haben ausserdem gezeigt, dass im Passivhaus bis zu 16% der für Heizen und Lüften verbrauchten Primärenergie eingespart werden kann, wenn die Fuzzy-Regelung gegen eine konventionelle Drei-Stufen-Regelung auf Stufe >Normal< antritt. Gleichzeitig wird der Wohnkomfort deutlich erhöht, da Luftqualität und Feuchte stets im richtigten Bereich bleiben.
The management of resources is an essential task in each construction company. Today, ERP systems and e-Business systems are available to assist construction companies to efficiently organise the allocation of their personnel and equipment within the company, but they cannot provide the company with the idle resources for every single task that has to be performed during a construction project. Therefore, companies should have an alternative solution to better exploit expensive resources and compensate their fixed costs, but also have them available at the right time for their own business activities. This paper outlines the approach taken by the EU funded project “e-Sharing” (IST-2001-33325) to support resource management between construction companies. It will describe requirements for the management of construction resources, its core features, and the integration approach. Therefore, we will outline the approach of an integrated resource type model supporting the management and classification of construction equipment, construction tasks and qualification profiles. The development is based on a cross-domain analysis and evaluation of existing models. ...
Some key facts about the economic environment of construction industry are explained. It is shown that construction industry is very heterogeneous and has changed drastically during the recent years due to a rapidly moving commercial environment. Two examples of todays’s use of virtual construction tools in construction projects are presented. The first example is the document control for a large international project. The second is the application of 4D modelling in the preconstruction phase of a dam project. It is shown that virtual construction, is a major international trend that currently takes up speed. Some generic industry needs for Research and Development which aims at short and medium term results are presented.
