This paper describes the effectiveness and efficiency of Virtual Reality training during a commissioning process. Therefore, 500 picking orders with more than 2000 part-picking operations with 30 test persons have been conducted and analyzed in the Modellfabrik Bodensee. The study points out the advantages and disadvantages of virtual training in comparison to a real execution of a picking process with and without any training.
The paper investigates an innovative actuator combination based on the magnetic shape memory technology. The actuator is composed of an electromagnet, which is activated to produce motion, and a magnetic shape memory element, which is used passively to yield multistability, i.e. the possibility of holding a position without input power. Based on the experimental open-loop frequency characterization of the actuator, a position controller is developed and tested in several experiments.

Advanced approaches for analysis and form finding of membrane structures with finite elements

Part I deals with material modelling of woven fabric membranes. Due to their structure of crossed yarns embedded in coating, woven fabric membranes are characterised by a highly nonlinear stress-strain behaviour. In order to determine an accurate structural response of membrane structures, a suitable description of the material behaviour is required. A linear elastic orthotropic model approach, which is current practice, only allows a relative coarse approximation of the material behaviour. The present work focuses on two different material approaches: A first approach becomes evident by focusing on the meso-scale. The inhomogeneous, however periodic structure of woven fabrics motivates for microstructural modelling. An established microstructural model is considered and enhanced with regard to the coating stiffness. Secondly, an anisotropic hyperelastic material model for woven fabric membranes is considered. By performing inverse processes of parameter identification, fits of the two different material models w.r.t. measured data from a common biaxial test are shown. The results of the inversely parametrised material models are compared and discussed.
Part II presents an extended approach for a simultaneous form finding and cutting patterning computation of membrane structures. The approach is formulated as an optimisation problem in which both the geometries of the equilibrium and cutting patterning configuration are initially unknown. The design objectives are minimum deviations from prescribed stresses in warp and fill direction along with minimum shear deformation. The equilibrium equations are introduced into the optimisation problem as constraints. Additional design criteria can be formulated (for the geometry of seam lines etc.). Similar to the motivation for the Updated Reference Strategy [4] the described problem is singular in the tangent plane. In both the equilibrium and the cutting patterning configuration finite element nodes can move without changing stresses. Therefore, several approaches are presented to stabilise the algorithm. The overall result of the computation is a stressed equilibrium and an unstressed cutting patterning geometry. The interaction of both configurations is described in Total Lagrangian formulation.
The microstructural model, which is focused in Part I, is applied. Based on this approach, information about fibre orientation as well as the ending of fibres at cutting edges are available. As a result, more accurate results can be computed compared to simpler approaches commonly used in practice.
When designing drying processes for sensitive biological foodstuffs like fruit or vegetables, energy and time efficiency as well as product quality are gaining more and more importance. These all are greatly influenced by the different drying parameters (e.g. air temperature, air velocity and dew point temperature) in the process. In sterilization of food products the cooking value is widely used as a cross-link between these parameters. In a similar way, the so-called cumulated thermal load (CTL) was introduced for drying processes. This was possible because most quality changes mainly depend on drying air temperature and drying time. In a first approach, the CTL was therefore defined as the time integral of the surface temperature of agricultural products. When conducting experiments with mangoes and pineapples, however, it was found that the CTL as it was used had to be adjusted to a more practical form. So the definition of the CTL was improved and the behaviour of the adjusted CTL (CTLad) was investigated in the drying of pineapples and mangoes. On the basis of these experiments and the work that had been done on the cooking value, it was found, that more optimization on the CTLad had to be done to be able to compare a great variety of different products as well as different quality parameters.
The introduction of multiple-level cell (MLC) and triple-level cell (TLC) technologies reduced the reliability of flash memories significantly compared with single-level cell flash. With MLC and TLC flash cells, the error probability varies for the different states. Hence, asymmetric models are required to characterize the flash channel, e.g., the binary asymmetric channel (BAC). This contribution presents a combined channel and source coding approach improving the reliability of MLC and TLC flash memories. With flash memories data compression has to be performed on block level considering short-data blocks. We present a coding scheme suitable for blocks of 1 kB of data. The objective of the data compression algorithm is to reduce the amount of user data such that the redundancy of the error correction coding can be increased in order to improve the reliability of the data storage system. Moreover, data compression can be utilized to exploit the asymmetry of the channel to reduce the error probability. With redundant data, the proposed combined coding scheme results in a significant improvement of the program/erase cycling endurance and the data retention time of flash memories.
