The idea of this game is to use a flashcard system to create a short story in a foreign language. The story is developed by a group of people by exchanging sentences via a flashcard system. This way, people can learn from each other without fear of making mistakes because the group members are anonymous.
Flashcards are a well known and proven method to learn and memorise. Such a way of learning is perfectly suited for “learning on the way,” but carrying all the flashcards could be awkward. In this scenario, a mobile device (mobile phone) is an adequate solution. The new mobile device operating system Android from Google allows for writing multimedia-enriched applications.
Die Hochschule Offenburg begleitet seit Juli 2006 in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Fraunhofer ISE in Freiburg, die solar unterstützte Klimatisierung der Festo AG & Co. KG in Esslingen im Rahmen des Forschungsvorhabens Solarthermie2000plus. Dabei wurde die bereits bestehende Adsorptionskälteanlage, die bisher mit Gaskesseln und Kompressorenabwärme betrieben wurde, durch eine Solaranlage als dritte Wärmequelle ergänzt.
There are some existing Java benchmarks, application benchmarks as well as micro benchmarks or mixture both of them,such as: Java Grande, Spec98, CaffeMark, HBech, etc. But none of them deal with behaviors of multi tasks operating systems. As a result, the achieved outputs are not satisfied for performance evaluation engineers. Behaviors of multi tasks operating systems are based on a schedule management which is employed in these systems. Different processes can have different priority to share the same resources. The time is measured by estimating from applications started to it is finished does not reflect the real time value which the system need for running those programs. New approach to this problem should be done. Having said that, in this paper we present a new Java benchmark, named FHOJ benchmark, which directly deals with multi tasks behaviors of a system. Our study shows that in some cases, results from FHOJ benchmark are far more reliable in comparison with some existing Java benchmarks.
The developed solution enables the presentation of animations and 3D virtual reality (VR) on mobile devices and is well suited for mobile learning, thus creating new possibilities in the area of e-learning worldwide. Difficult relations in physics as well as intricate experiments in optics can be visualised on mobile devices without need for a personal computer.
Plant oils may be used as a sustainable, nearly CO2neutral fuel for diesel engines. This work investigates experimentally the particulate and gaseous emissions of diesel engines fuelled with different non-esterified, pure plant oils. The data are collected from three engines: a) Common rail 1.7 liter passenger car engine from Opel AG b) 12.8 liter truck engine from VOLVO c) Truck engine from MAN AG.
The emissions of the MAN engine have been used to perform AMES tests to analyze possible health impacts of plant oil operation. Finally, all emission results with plant oils have been compared to traditional gas oils.
Hydrogen chloride and sulphur dioxide are gaseous by-products of chloridization processes that employ thionyl chloride. Absorption would be a feasible method to clean the rich gas stream. Two serial connectable absorption columns were equipped with the latest generation of packings to effect product recovery. Therefore, several tests concerning the baffle properties had to be performed. In the first experimental section, the hydraulic parameters pressure drop and hold-up were investigated. The hold up value range of the new baffles Raschig Super Ring (RSR) and Raschig Super Pak (RSP) was clearly below that of the former installed packing, Raschig Ring (RR). However, due to the low maximal flow rate, the range of stagnation and flooding could not be measured. The maximal measured pressure drop value was, for RR, only 0.3 mbar/m, which is very low compared to the measurement error. Batch experiments, where the waste gases were produced by reaction of thionyl chloride in water, showed that for the steady state determination of the separation steps it is advisable to use just one column in simplex mode with a defined gas supply by a gas cylinder. The HTU determination for RSR and a HCl/H2O system delivered a value of HTUHCl,OG = 0.14 ± 0.01 m with a variation coefficient of 24.2%.
Innovative technologies and concepts will emerge as we move towards a more dynamic, service-based, market-driven infrastructure, where energy efficiency and savings can be facilitated by interactive distribution networks. A new generation of fully interactive Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) infrastructure has to be developed to support the optimal exploitation of the changing, complex business processes and to enable the efficient functioning of the deregulated energy market for the benefit of citizens and businesses. The architecture of such distributed system landscapes must be designed and validated, standards need to be created and widely supported, and comprehensive, reliable IT applications will need to be implemented. The collaboration between a smart house and a smart grid is a promising approach which, with the help of ICT can fully unleash the capabilities of the smart electricity network.
This paper describes the magmaOffenburg 3D simulation team trying to qualify for RoboCup 2009. It focuses on two distinctive features of the team: decisions making using extended behavior networks and its software architecture and implementation in Java to open the simulation for the Java community.
The University for Children is a very successful event aiming to spark children‧s interest in science, in this particular lecture in Optics and Photonics. It is from brain research that we know about the significant dependence of successful learning on the fun factor. Researchers in this field have shown that knowledge acquired with fun is stored for a longer time in the long-term memory and can be used both more efficiently and more creatively [1], [2]. Such an opportunity to inspire the young generation for science must not be wasted. The world of Photonics and Optics provides us with a nearly inexhaustible source of opportunities of this kind.
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Laufzeitmessung mittels Ultraschall, bei dem ein komplexes Sendesignal erzeugt wird, mit dem zumindest ein Ultraschallsender durch Aussenden eines Ultraschallpulses angesteuert wird. Mit zumindest einem Ultraschallempfänger wird der Ultraschallpuls nach Durchlaufen einer Übertragungsstrecke empfangen und in ein komplexes Empfangssignal gewandelt. Das komplexe Empfangssignal wird mit dem komplexen Sendesignal korreliert, um ein komplexes Korrelationssignal zu erhalten. Das Korrelationssignal wird nicht nur nach Betrag, sondern auch nach Phase ausgewertet, um eine Laufzeit des Ultraschalls auf der Übertragungsstrecke zu bestimmen. Auf diese Weise wird zum einen eine höhere Genauigkeit der Laufzeitmessung erreicht, zum anderen beeinflussen andere akustische Laufwege des Ultraschallpulses die Messgenauigkeit nicht, so dass nur geringe Anforderungen an die Qualität der akustischen Übertragungsstrecke gestellt werden müssen.
Im Fahrzeug stehen große Wärmeströme zur Verfügung, die nicht genutzt werden. Die Energie des Abgases weist gegenüber der des Motor/Kühlsystems eine wesentlich höhere Arbeitsfähigkeit auf. Untersuchungen zielen dahin, diese thermische Energie zum Beispiel mithilfe eines thermoelektrischen Generators wieder in das System einzukoppeln und als Energiequelle für Verbraucher zu nutzen.
Vorrichtung und Verfahren zur optischen Messung der Entfernung eines Objekts (DE102007060966A1)
(2009)
Eine Vorrichtung zur optischen Messung der Entfernung eines Objekts weist eine Quelle zur Aussendung optischer Strahlung, die eine eine optische Strahlung transportierende Lichtleitfaser aufweist, ein optisches Element, welches die optische Strahlung fokussiert und auf das Objekt abbildet, und einen Empfänger auf, der die optische Strahlung empfängt und in ein elektrisches Signal zur Weitergabe an eine Steuereinrichtung umwandelt. Die Lichtleitfaser ist mittels einer Verschiebeeinrichtung relativ zu dem optischen Element verschieblich. Ein Abschnitt der Lichtleitfaser führt zu dem Empfänger und ist mittels einer Kopplungseinrichtung mit einem von der Quelle zur Aussendung optischer Strahlung ausgehenden Abschnitt der Lichtleitfaser zu einer einzigen, mittels der Verschiebeeinrichtung verschieblichen Lichtleitfaser gekoppelt.
