Design of tension components
(2017)
The paper gives an introduction as well as background information on proposed changes and amendments in EN 1993-1-11 “Design of structures with tension components”, implemented during the ongoing revision. Due to some deficits in the currently applicable standard this revision is not only limited to some restructuring and editorial changes, but includes also major technical changes in the following fields: safety concept and structural analysis, actions and loads, robustness and rep-arability, design of tension components and design of clamps and saddles.
Observer-based self sensing for digital (on–off) single-coil solenoid valves is investigated. Self sensing refers to the case where merely the driving signals used to energize the actuator (voltage and coil current) are available to obtain estimates of both the position and velocity. A novel observer approach for estimating the position and velocity from the driving signals is presented, where the dynamics of the mechanical subsystem can be neglected in the model. Both the effect of eddy currents and saturation effects are taken into account in the observer model. Practical experimental results are shown and the new method is compared with a full-order sliding mode observer.
Im Rahmen der Lehrveranstaltung "Nachhaltigkeit im industriellen Umfeld" im Masterstudiengang Umwelt- und Verfahrenstechnik der Hochschulen Konstanz und Ravensburg-Weingarten fand im Dezember 2016 eine studentische Fachkonferenz statt. Die Studierenden entwickelten in Einzelarbeit oder als Zweierteam
Konferenzbeiträge zu folgenden Themen:
- Spannendes aus dem Bereich der Energieerzeugung und der Grauen Energie
- Aspekte der Kreislaufwirtschaft
- Ökosysteme - ihre Belastung und Erhalt
- Spezifische Wirtschaftszweige und Nachhaltigkeit
Die Ergebnisse der studentischen Fachkonferenz zur „Nachhaltigkeit im
industriellen Umfeld“ werden in der vorliegenden Publikation präsentiert.
Die vorausschauende Instandhaltung (engl. Predictive Maintenance) gewinnt für die produzierende Industrie weltweit an Bedeutung, da Produktionsmodernisierungen im Rahmen der Industrie 4.0 sowie die zunehmende Verwendung von heterogenen Sensoreinheiten die Instandhaltungsplanung immer komplexer gestalten. Darüber hinaus ist das Service-Kontingent, welches ein Maschinenbauer seinen Kunden im Bereich der Instandhaltung anbieten kann, durch die Ressource Mensch stark limitiert und nur ortsgebunden einsetzbar. Durch herkömmliche Instandhaltungsprozesse entstehen somit oft hohe Kosten, sowohl für den Maschinenbauer als auch für den Anwender. Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Einblick in aktuelle Forschungen der Sybit GmbH in direkter Zusammenarbeit mit der HTWG Konstanz und renommierten Maschinenbau-Unternehmen. Gemeinsames Ziel ist es, vorhandene Instandhaltungsprozesse durch die Verwendung von Augmented Reality (AR) und weiterführenden Technologien zu unterstützen. Hierbei wird ein Stufenplan erarbeitet und vorgestellt, in dem die notwendigen Erweiterungen auf dem Weg von der Implementierung eines Pilotprojekts bis hin zur vollwertigen Industrie-4.0-Anwendung diskutiert werden. Abschließend wird die plausible Erweiterbarkeit der vorgestellten Entwicklungen erörtert und die Übertragbarkeit der Ergebnisse auf andere Domänen vorgestellt.
The binary asymmetric channel (BAC) is a model for the error characterization of multi-level cell (MLC) flash memories. This contribution presents a joint channel and source coding approach improving the reliability of MLC flash memories. 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 MLC 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 kilobyte of data.
Error correction coding based on soft-input decoding can significantly improve the reliability of flash memories. Such soft-input decoding algorithms require reliability information about the state of the memory cell. This work proposes a channel model for soft-input decoding that considers the asymmetric error characteristic of multi-level cell (MLC) and triple-level cell (TLC) memories. Based on this model, an estimation method for the channel state information is devised which avoids additional pilot data for channel estimation. Furthermore, the proposed method supports page-wise read operations.
Sleep quality and in general, behavior in bed can be detected using a sleep state analysis. These results can help a subject to regulate sleep and recognize different sleeping disorders. In this work, a sensor grid for pressure and movement detection supporting sleep phase analysis is proposed. In comparison to the leading standard measuring system, which is Polysomnography (PSG), the system proposed in this project is a non-invasive sleep monitoring device. For continuous analysis or home use, the PSG or wearable Actigraphy devices tends to be uncomfortable. Besides this fact, they are also very expensive. The system represented in this work classifies respiration and body movement with only one type of sensor and also in a non-invasive way. The sensor used is a pressure sensor. This sensor is low cost and can be used for commercial proposes. The system was tested by carrying out an experiment that recorded the sleep process of a subject. These recordings showed the potential for classification of breathing rate and body movements. Although previous researches show the use of pressure sensors in recognizing posture and breathing, they have been mostly used by positioning the sensors between the mattress and bedsheet. This project however, shows an innovative way to position the sensors under the mattress.
