Item Open Access A fully coupled thermomechanical 3D model for all phases of friction stir welding(2016) Hoßfeld, MaxAlthough friction stir welding (FSW) has made its way to industrial application particularly in the last years, the FSW process, its influences and their strong interactions among themselves are still not thoroughly understood. The lack of understanding mainly arises from the adverse observability of the actual process with phenomena like material ow and deposition, large material deformations plus their complex thermo-mechanical interactions determining the weld formation and its mechanical properties. A validated numerical process model may be helpful for closing this gap as well as for an isolated assessment of individual influences and phenomena. Hereby such a model will be a valuable assistance for process and especially tool development. In this study a Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) approach with Abaqus V6.14 is used for modeling the whole FSW process within one continuous model. The resolution reached allows not only simulating the joining of two sheets into one and real tooling geometries but also burr and internal void formation. Results for temperature fields, surface and weld formation as well as process forces are shown and validated.Item Open Access Konzept für eine sichere und benutzerfreundliche Authentifizierung für industrielle Produktionsanlagen(Stuttgart : Fraunhofer Verlag, 2020) Borisov, Alexander; Verl, Alexander (Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dr. h.c. mult.)Die Anzahl und die Schwere der Angriffe auf industrielle Komponenten nehmen von Jahr zu Jahr stark zu. Gleichzeitig steigt der Grad der Vernetzung der Anlagen weiter an und vergrößert dadurch nochmals die mögliche Angriffsfläche. Die aktuelle Situation bezüglich IT-Sicherheit in der fertigenden Industrie erfordert eine dringende Verbesserung der vorhandenen IT-Sicherheitsmaßnahmen. Insbesondere weisen die existierenden Authentifizierungsmöglichkeiten in der Industrie mehrere Defizite auf. Die Sicherheit der zurzeit eingesetzten Methoden, ihre Benutzerfreundlichkeit und auch der monetäre Aufwand für den Betrieb sind bei zahlreichen Anwendungen nicht zufriedenstellend. Seitens der Industrie und auch der Forschungsgemeinschaft besteht daher der Bedarf, bessere Authentifizierungsverfahren zu entwickeln. Die Erforschung einer neuen Authentifizierungsmöglichkeit für eine industrielle Anwendung bildet den Hauptteil der vorliegenden Arbeit. Die in dieser Arbeit erarbeitete Authentifizierungsmethode basiert auf der Verwendung von zeitbasierten Einmalschlüsseln, die über eine speziell entwickelte App im Smartphone des Benutzers generiert werden. Dabei findet eine beidseitige und eine Zwei-Faktor-Authentifizierung statt. Die Authentifizierungsinformationen werden zudem über die Verbindung des Smartphones an den Server übertragen. Die Lösung weist somit eine hohe Benutzerfreundlichkeit, starke Sicherheit und geringe Betriebskosten auf. Diese Eigenschaften wurden im Rahmen dieser Arbeit experimentell bestätigt und in einer Benutzerstudie nachgewiesen. Darüber hinaus wurde in der Arbeit gezeigt, wie die entwickelte Authentifizierungslösung in eine IT-Sicherheitsarchitektur eines Werkes integriert werden kann. Die vorliegende Arbeit leistet somit einen Beitrag zur Verbesserung der IT-Sicherheit in der produzierenden Industrie und kann für die Institute der angewandten Forschung sowie auch für die Entwicklungsabteilungen der Industrieunternehmen von Bedeutung sein.Item Open Access A numerical method for the generation of hierarchical Poisson Voronoi microstructures applied in micromechanical finite element simulations : part I: method(2020) Schneider, Y.; Weber, U.; Wasserbäch, W.; Zielke, R.; Schmauder, S.; Tillmann, W.Poisson Voronoi (PV) tessellations as artificial microstructures are widely used in investigations of material deformation behaviors. However, a PV structure usually describes a relative homogeneous field. This work presents a simple numerical method for generating 2D/3D artificial microstructures based on hierarchical PV tessellations. If grains/particles of a phase cover a large size span, the concept of “artificial phases” can be used to create a more realistic size distribution. From case to case, detailed microstructural features cannot be directly achieved by commercial or free softwares, but they are necessary for a deep or thorough study of the material deformation behavior. PV tessellations created in our process can fulfill individual requirements from material designs. Another reason to use PV tessellations is due to the limited experimental data. Concerning the application of PV microstructures, four examples are given. The FE models and results will be presented in consecutive works, i.e. “part II: applications”.Item Open Access Multiphoton quantum interference at ultracompact inverse-designed multiport beam splitter(2025) Huang, Shiang-Yu; Kumar, Shreya; Huster, Jeldrik; Augenstein, Yannick; Rockstuhl, Carsten; Barz, StefanieItem Open Access Low-field chip-based Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization platforms(2026) Yang, Qing; Anders, Jens (Prof. Dr.)Item Open Access Efficient simulation of challenging PDE problems on CPU and GPU clusters(2021) Schirwon, Malte; Göddeke, Dominik (Prof. Dr.)The main contribution of this dissertation is to show how efficient parallelization techniques for numerical simulations of partial differential equations (PDEs) can be developed and which aspects have to be considered in order to obtain the best possible performance. For this purpose, the target platforms range from high-performance workstations to small clusters and up to supercomputers. In particular, we focus on platforms accelerated by graphics cards. We emphasize that the efficient numerical simulation of PDE problems comprises and combines, in novel ways, aspects from numerical analysis, numerical methods (algorithmics, data structures and other areas more related to computer science) and hardware details. Many models in science, engineering and economics are based on systems of PDEs. The choice of modeling techniques, the implementation of numerical solution techniques, as well as the chosen target platform limit the accuracy and the duration of the simulation. Increasing the accuracy and/or reducing the duration of the simulation is usually not possible without efficient software. Based on three application scenarios, we adapt already existing methodologies and algorithms to the target platforms or change the way they are implemented in order to achieve optimal efficiency. As a guiding scheme, we consider the challenging case of unstructured data and schemes. The first application is the wave propagation in optical fibers. We present an MPI-parallel implementation that is particularly suitable for small clusters. %Here, we change the numerical method and the implementation technique to increase efficiency and decrease runtime. The second application scenario is the flow in porous media. Based on both applications, we develop implementation techniques that increase their efficiency. Furthermore, we present an adapted version of a neighborhood algorithm that further increases the efficiency for current graphics cards. The increased efficiency and reduced runtime allows to perform more complex simulations. %For example, higher resolutions can be simulated or more physical parameters can be included. One of theses applications is considered to be the third application, which is seismic wave propagation and waveform inversion. The feasibility of developing efficient implementations for computationally powerful target platforms permits us to consider the inversion of seismic waves in viscoelastic materials. In particular, we present an inversion scheme that also allows us to determine the damping parameters of the viscoelastic material. In addition, regularization methods and a modified solver method are presented, which can be used for a more efficient solution of such problems.Item Open Access Redox-acid/base phase diagrams as an entry to computational redox chemistry(2024) Becker, Patrick M.; Heinze, Katja; Sarkar, Biprajit; Kästner, JohannesThe rapid depletion of fossil fuels and the change from conventional energy supply to so‐called sustainable and renewable energy sources have led to a renaissance of electrochemical, photochemical, and photoelectrochemical methods for chemical synthesis. While drastic experimental improvements have been realized in recent years, systematic computational studies of these types of reactions are, however, rather limited caused by a lack of suitable representations. Herein we present a generalized method to investigate and analyze a chemical system with respect to its redox‐ and acid/base‐properties based on Gibbs free‐energy differences. We represent the results in a clear manner by means of redox-acid/base phase diagrams. Motivated by computational needs, the presented method is a direct link between experimentally measurable values and Gibbs free‐energy profiles, connecting experiment and simulation. Thus, it serves as an entry to systematic computational studies of reactions, which involve a combination of electron transfers and acid/base‐chemical reaction steps, because it enables the representation of both thermodynamic and kinetic properties. The presented method is applied to four exemplary systems: Phenol, dicobaltocenium amine as a proton‐coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactant, and two porphyrin Ni II catalysts for the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER).Item Open Access Leseaktivitäten auf großen, hochauflösenden Displays(2015) Mannweiler, EugenIn der heutigen Wissenschaft- und Geschäftswelt ist das Lesen und Verarbeiten großer Informationsmengen immer wichtiger geworden. Deswegen wird nach Lösungen zur Verbesserung der Informationserfassung und Informationsbearbeitung gesucht. Ein möglicher Ansatz ist der Einsatz großer, hochauflösender Displays. Mit Hilfe dieser Displays gibt es Möglichkeiten größere Informationsmengen auf einmal darstellen zu können. Das kann in paralleler Darstellung mehrerer Texte oder zusätzlicher Informationsebenen resultieren. Desweiteren sollen Alternativen zu herkömmlichen Eingabegeräten, wie Tastatur oder Maus, untersucht werden. Dabei kann der zukünftige Benutzer mit dem System interagieren, indem er Handbewegungen oder den Abstand zum Monitor als Hilfsmittel zur Interaktion nimmt. Die Bewegungen können von einem Bewegungserkennungssystem erfasst werden und die gewünschte Aktion ausführen. So kann der Abstand zwischen dem Benutzer und dem Monitor dazu genutzt werden, um die Schriftgröße zu beeinflussen. In dieser Arbeit wird der Einsatz große, hochauflösender Displays im Zusammenhang mit Textlesen und Textverstehen untersucht. Dabei wird insbesondere auf die verschiedenen Interaktionsmöglichkeiten, die sich aus der Kombination von großen, hochauflösenden Displays und Bewegungserkennungssystem entstehen, eingegangen. Auch die Darstellung des Textes und der Position des Lesers relativ zu den Displays soll auf Vorteile und Nachteile untersucht werden. Diesbezüglich wird eine Studie durchgeführt und ihre Ergebnisse statistisch erfasst und anschließend diskutiert werden.Item Open Access Generic templates for monitoring agents(2018) Weise, MarcThis thesis presents an agent-centric approach for monitoring IT resources, which enables the execution of preprocessing and aggregation steps directly on the target systems in order to limit data transfers to a central server and allow a local event detection and treatment. To keep the agent behavior definition as simple as possible, an extendable template model is introduced which can be used to define Monitoring Pipelines by chaining individual processing steps. Furthermore this work demonstrates how a graphical editor can be implemented which also allows non-experts in the field of monitoring to create and modify Monitoring Templates.Item Open Access Seasonal dynamics of gaseous CO2 concentrations in a karst cave correspond with aqueous concentrations in a stagnant water column(2023) Class, Holger; Keim, Leon; Schirmer, Larissa; Strauch, Bettina; Wendel, Kai; Zimmer, MartinDissolved CO2 in karst water is the key driving force of karstification. Replenishment of CO2 concentrations in karst water occurs by meteoric water that percolates through the vadose zone, where CO2 produced from microbial activity is dissolved. CO2 can thus be transported with the percolating water or in the gas phase due to ventilation in karst systems. We measured seasonally fluctuating CO2 concentrations in the air of a karst cave and their influence on aqueous CO2 concentrations in different depths of a stagnant water column. The observed data were compared to numerical simulations. The data give evidence that density-driven enhanced dissolution of gaseous CO2 at the karst water table is the driving force for a fast increase of aqueous CO2 during periods of high gaseous concentrations in the cave, whereas during periods of lower gaseous concentrations, the decline of aqueous CO2 is limited to shallow water depths in the order of 1 m. This is significant because density-driven CO2 dissolution has not been previously considered relevant for karst hydrology in the literature. Attempts at reproducing the measured aqueous CO2 concentrations with numerical modeling revealed challenges related to computational demands, discretization, and the high sensitivity of the processes to tiny density gradients.
