Public-key cryptographic algorithms are an essential part of todays cyber security, since those are required for key exchange protocols, digital signatures, and authentication. But large scale quantum computers threaten the security of the most widely used public-key cryptosystems. Hence, the National Institute of Standards and Technology ( NIST ) is currently in a standardization process for post-quantum secure public-key cryptography. One type of such systems is based on the NP-complete problem of decoding random linear codes and therefore called code-based cryptography. The best-known code-based cryptographic system is the McEliece system proposed in 1978 by Robert McEliece. It uses a scrambled generator matrix as a public key and the original generator matrix as well as the scrambling as private key. When encrypting a message it is encoded in the public code and a random but correctable error vector is added. Only the legitimate receiver can correct the errors and decrypt the message using the knowledge of the private key generator matrix. The original proposal of the McEliece system was based on binary Goppa codes, which are also considered for standardization. While those codes seem to be a secure choice, the public keys are extremely large, limiting the practicality of those systems. Many different code families were proposed for the McEliece system, but many of them are considered insecure since attacks exist, which use the known code structure to recover the private key. The security of code-based cryptosystems mainly depends on the number of errors added by the sender, which is limited by the error correction capability of the code. Hence, in order to obtain a high security for relatively short codes one needs a high error correction capability. Therefore maximum distance separable ( MDS ) codes were proposed for those systems, since those are optimal for the Hamming distance. In order to increase the error correction capability we propose q -ary codes over different metrics. There are many code families that have a higher minimum distance in some other metric than in the Hamming metric, leading to increased error correction capability over this metric. To make use of this one needs to restrict not only the number of errors but also their value. In this work, we propose the weight-one error channel, which restricts the error values to weight one and can be applied for different metrics. In addition we propose some concatenated code constructions, which make use of this restriction of error values. For each of these constructions we discuss the usability in code-based cryptography and compare them to other state-of-the-art code-based cryptosystems. The proposed code constructions show that restricting the error values allows for significantly lower public key sizes for code-based cryptographic systems. Furthermore, the use of concatenated code constructions allows for low complexity decoding and therefore an efficient cryptosystem.
The intentions of the so-called "More Electrical Aircraft" (MEA) are higher efficiency and lower weight. A main topic here is the application of electrical instead of hydraulical, pneumatical and mechanical systems. The necessary power electronic devices have intermediate DC-links, which are typically supplied by a three-phase system with active B6 and passive B12 rectifiers. A possible alternative is the B6 diode bridge in combination with an active power filter (APF). Due to the parallel arrangement, the APF offers a higher power density and is able to compensate for harmonics from several devices. The use of the diode bridge rectifier alone is not permitted due to the highly distorted phase current. The following investigations are dealing with the development of an active power filter for a three-phase supply with variable frequency from 360 to 800 Hz. All relevant components such as inductors, EMC-filters, power modules and DC-link capacitor are designed. A particular focus is put on the customized power module with SiC-MOSFETs and SiC-diodes, which is characterized electrically and thermally. The maximum supply frequency slope has a value of 50 Hz/ms, which requires a high dynamic and robustness on the control algorithm. Furthermore, the content of 5th and 7th harmonics must be reduced to less than 2 %, which demands a high accuracy. To cope with both requirements, a two-stage filter algorithm is developed and implemented in two independent signal processors. Simulations and laboratory experiments confirm the performance and robustness of the control algorithm. This work comprehensively presents the design of aerospace rectifiers. The results were published in conferences and patents.
Foil-air bearings (FABs) are predominantly used for high-speed, oil-free applications. Offering many advantages such as friction loss at high speeds, stability and price, they lack, however, load capacity as well as start-up and coast-down friction wear resistance.
The friction losses of FABs have been studied experimentally by many authors. In order to predict the friction and, consequently, the lifespan of a FAB, the start-up and coast-down regimes are modelled in such a way that allows for accurate, efficient simulation and later optimisation of lift-off speed and wear characteristics. The proposed simulation method applies the Kirchhoff-Love plate theory to the top foil mapping [20]. This system of differential equations is coupled with the underlying compliant foil to simulate the displacement due to the pressure buildup. Consequently, this coupled system allows for simulation from almost zero rounds per minute (rpm) to full speed. The underlying simulation model uses the finite difference method for spatial discretisation and a temporal explicit Runge-Kutta method.
Difficulties to overcome are the smooth combination of various friction regimes across the sliding surfaces as well as the synchronous coupling of Reynolds, deformation and kinematic equations with highly non-linear terms. Introducing an exponential pressure component based on Greenwood and Tripp’s theory avoids impingement between the rotor and foil.
Formgedächtnislegierungen
(2018)
Formgedächtnislegierungen sind »Legierungen, die nach geeigneter Behandlung aufgrund einer martensitischen Umwandlung ihre Gestalt in Abhängigkeit von der Temperatur ändern«. Derartige Materialien werden in den nächsten Jahrzehnten eine wachsende Rolle in der Technik spielen. Um die Eigenschaften dieser Werkstoffe optimal nutzen zu können, ist es wichtig, den Einfluss des Herstellungs- und Verarbeitungsprozesses auf ihre Anwendung zu kennen.
