Alexander von Humboldt, a German scientist and explorer of the 19th century, viewed the natural world holistically and described the harmony of nature among the diversity of the physical world as a conjoining between all physical disciplines. He noted in his diary: “Everything is interconnectedness.”
The main feature of Humboldt’s pioneering work was later named “Humboldtian science”, meaning the accurate study of interconnected real phenomena in order to find a definite law and a dynamic cause.
Following Humboldt's idea of nature, an Internet edition of his works must preserve the author’s original intention, retain an awareness of all relevant works, and still adhere to the requirements of scholarly edition.
At the present time, however, the highly unconventional form of his publications has undermined the awareness and a comprehensive study of Humboldt’s works.
Digital libraries should supply dynamic links to sources, maps, images, graphs and relevant texts. New forms of interaction and synthesis between humanistic texts and scientific observation need to be created.
Information technology is the only way to do justice to the broad range of visions, descriptions and the idea of nature of Humboldt’s legacy. It finally leads to virtual research environments as an adequate concept to redesign our digital archives, not only for Humboldt’s documents, but for all interconnected data.
This article sets the focus on methods of information technology in the Humboldt Portal, which represents an ongoing research project to develop a virtual research environment on the Internet for the legacy of Alexander von Humboldt. Based on the experiences of developing and providing the Humboldt Digital Library (www.avhumboldt.net) for more than a decade, we defined a working plan to create an Internet portal for comprehensive access to Humboldt’s writings, no matter if documents are provided as PDF files, scan images or XML-TEI documents on external archives (Google Books, Internet Archive, Deutsches Textarchiv, Bibliotheque National de France). Going far beyond services of a digital library we will provide an information network with multimedia assets, which are containing objects like terms, paragraphs, data tables, scan images, or illustrations, together with correlated properties like thematic linkage to other objects, relevant keywords with optional synonyms and dynamic hyperlinks to related translations in different languages. So the Humboldt Portal can contribute to the key question, how to present interconnected data in an appropriate form using information technologies on the Web.
Autonomous humanoid robots require light weight, high torque and high speed actuators to be able to walk and run. For conventional gears with a fixed gear ratio the product of torque and velocity is constant. On the other hand desired motions require maximum torque and speed. In this paper it is shown that with a variable gear ratio it is possible to vary the relation between torque and velocity. This is achieved by introducing systems of rods and levers to move the joints of our humanoid robot ”Sweaty II”. On the basis of a variable gear ratio low speed and high torque can be achieved for those joint angles, which require this motion mode, whereas high speed and low torque can be realized for those joint angles, where it is favorable for the desired motion.
Der hier vorliegende Beitrag beschreibt erste Untersuchungsergebnisse mit der Finite-Elemente-Methode (FEM) zur Entlastung der Kerbspannungen an Getriebewellen mit Durchdringungskerben. Es handelt sich bei den Kerben um eine Umlaufnut mit überlagerter Querbohrung und um einen Wellenabsatz mit überlagerter Querbohrung. Die neu entwickelte Entlastungskerbe erweitert die üblichen Möglichkeiten zur Entlastung von Durchdringungskerben und ermöglicht bedeutende Spannungsreduktionen bis etwa 48% bei Biegung oder Zug/Druck. Die Entlastung bei Torsionsbelastung beträgt maximal etwa 18%. Es wurden Spannungsdiagramme der variierten Entlastungsnutparameter erstellt und Formeln zur näherungsweisen Berechnung der zu erwartenden Spannungen in der Durchdringungskerbe und in der Entlastungsnut ermittelt, zudem werden Empfehlungen zur Gestaltung der Entlastungskerbe gegeben. Dieser Beitrag bietet eine Grundlage zur weiteren Untersuchung zum Thema „räumliche Durchdringungskerben“ und deren Entlastung.
Eye-Tracking-Analyse des Betrachtungsverhaltens bei Micro-Präsentationen in der CAE-Ausbildung
(2015)
Die Zielsetzung des vorliegenden Beitrags ergibt sich aus der persönlichen Motivation der Autoren, das visuelle Verhalten und das Handeln vom jungen Ingenieur beim Micro-Präsentieren technischer Inhalte und Lösungsergebnisse in bildlicher und begrifflicher Form besser zu verstehen und somit effizienter unterstützen zu können. Dabei wurden mehrere Einzelpersonen aus dem Studiengang des Maschinenbaus der Hochschule Offenburg mit Hilfe der Eye-Tracking-Technick beobachtet. Die Probanden befinden sich im 6. Semester, sind im Alter von 21 bis 24 Jahren und zeichnen sich durch einen einheitlichen Ausbildungsstand aus. Die Versuchszeit für die Präsentation der Aufgabe betrug 100 Sekunden. Die Analyse der gewonnenen Daten dieser empirischen Laboruntersuchung erlaubt erste Einblicke in die visuelle Wahrnehmung technischer Objekte beim Vortragen.
Skills, abilities and capability of our freshmen are increasingly heterogeneous, regarding age, attained levels of education and motivational aspects. Additionally, students tend to recoil from subjects dealing with mathematical backgrounds. As a result high, drop-out numbers are a huge problem in technical degree programs.
Since mechanics is based on physics and mathematics our students face enormous difficulties. To deal with them, a form of teaching and learning has been developed that is composed of the following arrangements:
1. Problems and tasks of different levels are solved during lessons. The access to theoretical issues is being developed by or rather as a result of solving these problems. By doing so, especially students with yet insufficient skills are enabled to develop their methodological skills.
2. Challenging students to independently transfer these skills on other problems is helpful. At the end of each lecture two students are selected randomly. Each of them is faced with an exercise they have to solve and present at the beginning of the next lecture. Because of small student numbers, chances are high that every student participates at least once by the end of semester. Surveys show that particularly weaker students benefit from that kind of model learning.
3. We are surrounded by mechanical issues. Given that, students are presented with “every-day-life” problems which students can apply their theoretical knowledge on. The problems are analyzed by groups of students, which leads to an enhanced and reflective perception of each and every one. Some examples are: “A broomstick in equilibrium”, “Sensitive cups”, “Transforming a roman basilica into a gothic cathedral”.
4. All lectures have been filmed by the staff of the Information Center of the Offenburg University during the previous term. Additionally to the notes taken by the students individually during the lectures, these recordings are helpful in the process of preparation and post-processing of the material. The recordings are accessible via the university’s learning management system “Moodle”.
Surveys show that students benefit from the great variety of the provided, interactive learning arrangements. It is interesting to discover that students not only take positive advantages in the lecture “mechanics 1/statics” but tend to transfer these positive experiences on other subjects.
Adsorption of N2 and CO2 on Activated Carbon, AlO(OH) Nanoparticles, and AlO(OH) Hollow Spheres
(2015)
Adsorption behaviors of nitrogen and CO2 on Norit R1 Extra and AlO(OH) nanoparticles and hollow spheres were measured under different temperature and pressure conditions using a magnetic suspension balance. Independent from the substrate investigated, all isotherms increase at lower pressure, reach a maximum, and then decrease with increasing pressure. In addition, selected experimental data were correlated with different model approaches and compared with reliable literature data. In case of CO2 on AlO(OH), capillary condensation was observed at two defined temperatures. The results suggest that the conversion of the liquid into a supercritical adsorbate phase does not take place suddenly.
Phosphate-based inorganic–organic hybrid nanoparticles (IOH-NPs) with the general composition [M]2+[Rfunction(O)PO3]2– (M = ZrO, Mg2O; R = functional organic group) show multipurpose and multifunctional properties. If [Rfunction(O)PO3]2– is a fluorescent dye anion ([RdyeOPO3]2–), the IOH-NPs show blue, green, red, and near-infrared fluorescence. This is shown for [ZrO]2+[PUP]2–, [ZrO]2+[MFP]2–, [ZrO]2+[RRP]2–, and [ZrO]2+[DUT]2– (PUP = phenylumbelliferon phosphate, MFP = methylfluorescein phosphate, RRP = resorufin phosphate, DUT = Dyomics-647 uridine triphosphate). With pharmaceutical agents as functional anions ([RdrugOPO3]2–), drug transport and release of anti-inflammatory ([ZrO]2+[BMP]2–) and antitumor agents ([ZrO]2+[FdUMP]2–) with an up to 80% load of active drug is possible (BMP = betamethason phosphate, FdUMP = 5′-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate). A combination of fluorescent dye and drug anions is possible as well and shown for [ZrO]2+[BMP]2–0.996[DUT]2–0.004. Merging of functional anions, in general, results in [ZrO]2+([RdrugOPO3]1–x[RdyeOPO3]x)2– nanoparticles and is highly relevant for theranostics. Amine-based functional anions in [MgO]2+[RaminePO3]2– IOH-NPs, finally, show CO2 sorption (up to 180 mg g–1) and can be used for CO2/N2 separation (selectivity up to α = 23). This includes aminomethyl phosphonate [AMP]2–, 1-aminoethyl phosphonate [1AEP]2–, 2-aminoethyl phosphonate [2AEP]2–, aminopropyl phosphonate [APP]2–, and aminobutyl phosphonate [ABP]2–. All [M]2+[Rfunction(O)PO3]2– IOH-NPs are prepared via noncomplex synthesis in water, which facilitates practical handling and which is optimal for biomedical application. In sum, all IOH-NPs have very similar chemical compositions but can address a variety of different functions, including fluorescence, drug delivery, and CO2 sorption.
The durability of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) is governed by a nonlinear coupling between system demand, component behavior, and physicochemical degradation mechanisms, occurring on timescales from the sub-second to the thousand-hour. We present a simulation methodology for assessing performance and durability of a PEMFC under automotive driving cycles. The simulation framework consists of (a) a fuel cell car model converting velocity to cell power demand, (b) a 2D multiphysics cell model, (c) a flexible degradation library template that can accommodate physically-based component-wise degradation mechanisms, and (d) a time-upscaling methodology for extrapolating degradation during a representative load cycle to multiple cycles. The computational framework describes three different time scales, (1) sub-second timescale of electrochemistry, (2) minute-timescale of driving cycles, and (3) thousand-hour-timescale of cell ageing. We demonstrate an exemplary PEMFC durability analysis due to membrane degradation under a highly transient loading of the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).
