Grundlegende Steuerungsverfahren im heterogenen Logistiknetz mit Kanban. In vielen Unternehmen werden heterogene verschiedene Steuerungen in einem abgestimmten Konzept kombiniert. Die wesentliche Fragestellung sollte folglich lauten: Warum ist der Ablauf nicht mit einer einfachen Steuerung wie Kanban abzubilden? Nanomeasuring and nanopositioning engineering. The paper describes traceable nanometrology based on a nanopositioning machine with integrated nanoprobes.

The operation of a high-precision long range three-dimensional nanopositioning and nanomeasuring machine NPM-Machine having a resolution of 0,1 nm over the positioning and measuring range of 25 mm x 25 mm x 5 mm is explained. An Abbe offset-free design of three miniature plan mirror interferometers and applying a new concept for compensating systematic errors resulting from mechanical guide systems provide very small uncertainties of measurement.

The machines are operating successfully in several German and foreign research institutes including the Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt PTB , Germany. The integration of several, optical and tactile probe systems and nanotools makes the NPM-Machine suitable for various tasks, such as large-area scanning probe microscopy, mask and wafer inspection, nanostructuring, biotechnology and genetic engineering as well as measuring mechanical precision workpieces, precision treatment and for engineering new material.

Various developed probe systems have been integrated into the NPM-Machine. The measurement results of a focus sensor, metrological AFM, white light sensor, tactile stylus probe and of a 3D-micro-touch-probe are presented. Single beam-, double beam- and triple beam interferometers built in the NPM-Machine for six degrees of freedom measurements are described.

This so-called Planck-Balance PB uses the physical approach of Kibble balances that allow the Planck constant to be derived from the mass. Using the PB no calibrated mass standards are required during weighing processes any longer, because all measurements are traceable via the electrical quantities to the Planck constant, and to the meter and the second. This allows a new approach of balance types after the expected redefinition of the SI-units by the end of In contrast to many scientific oriented developments, the PB is focused on robust and daily use.

Therefore, two balances will be developed, PB2 and PB1, which will allow relative measurement uncertainties comparable to the accuracies of class E2 and E1 weights, respectively, as specified in OIML R Im Allgemeinen lassen sich zwei Hauptziele unterscheiden. Letztere werden in erster Linie dort eingesetzt, wo das Implantat in direktem Kontakt mit Blut ist.

Distortions caused by the neutron spectrum and scattered neutrons are major problems in fast neutron radiography and should be considered for improving the image quality. Good analysis results prove the sound effects of the above two corrections. In the course of setup modifications and re-measuring of several dimensions, the correction factors have been re-evaluated in this work. The correction factors for scatter and attenuation have been recalculated using the Monte Carlo software package EGSnrc, and a new expression has been found for the divergence correction.

Eventually, good agreement between the measurements and numerical simulation of the tunnel design is achieved. Predicting water suppy and actual evapotranspiration of street trees.

It's well known that street trees cool air temperature in summer-time by transpiration and shading and also reduce runoff. However, it's difficult to analyse if trees have water shortage or not. This contribution focus on predicting water supply, actual evapotranspiration, and runoff by using easily available climate data precipiation, potential evapotranspiration and site characteristics water retention, space, sealing degree, groundwater depth.

We report the initial results of a recent bilateral comparison of linewidth or critical dimension CD calibrations on photomask line features between two national metrology institutes NMIs: For the comparison, a chrome on glass CoG photomask was used which has a layout of line features down to nm nominal size.

Different measurement methods were used at both institutes. On the isolated opaque features, we found agreement of the CD measurements at the 3 nm to 5 nm level on most features - usually within the combined expanded uncertainties of the measurements. This is a very good ratio showing that we could attract the young generation. There have been oral and poster presentations.

The experimental results are compared to the semiempirical Hansen-Kocbach-Stolterfoht model as well as to the recently reported method based on the dielectric formalism. The comparison to the latter showed good agreement with experimental data in a broad range of emission angles and energies of secondary electrons. The scaling property of ionization cross sections for tetrahydrofuran was also investigated.

Compared to molecules of different size, the ionization cross sections of tetrahydrofuran were found to scale with the number of valence electrons at large impact parameters.

Reduction of the uncertainty of the PTB vacuum pressure scale by a new large area non-rotating piston gauge. The operational procedure and the uncertainty budget for pressures between 30 Pa and 11 kPa are given.

Comparisons between the FRS5 and a mercury manometer, a rotary piston gauge and a force-balanced piston gauge are described. We show that the reproducibility of the calibration values of capacitance diaphragm gauges is enhanced by a factor of 6 compared with a static expansion primary standard SE2.

Improvements of the SE2 performance by reducing the number of expansions and smaller uncertainties of expansion ratios are discussed. Traceable terahertz power measurement from 1 THz to 5 THz. The Terahertz detector calibration facility is equipped with a standard detector calibrated against a cryogenic radiometer at this frequency. In order to extend this service to a broader spectral range in the THz region a new standard detector was developed.

This detector is based on a commercial thermopile detector. Its absorber was modified and characterized by spectroscopic methods with respect to its absorptance and reflectance from 1 THz to 5 THz and at the wavelength of a helium-neon laser in the visible spectral range. This offers the possibility of tracing back the THz power responsivity scale to the more accurate responsivity scale in the visible spectral range and thereby to reduce the uncertainty of detector calibrations in the THz range significantly.

Motivating first-year university students by interdisciplinary study projects. The didactic concept includes sophisticated task design, individual responsibility and a differentiated support system. Using a self-determination theory framework, this study examined the effects of the projects based on survey findings from two projects with more than students.

The results showed that the projects were successful in fulfilling students' basic psychological needs and in promoting students' academic engagement. Basic psychological needs were found to be significant predictors of academic engagement. These findings suggest that interdisciplinary study projects can potentially contribute to improving higher education as they fulfil students' basic psychological needs for competence, relatedness and autonomy and enhance students' academic engagement.

Measuring and interpreting X-ray fluorescence from planetary surfaces. As part of a comprehensive study of X-ray emission from planetary surfaces and in particular the planet Mercury, we have measured fluorescent radiation from a number of planetary analog rock samples using monochromatized synchrotron radiation provided by the BESSY II electron storage ring.

The experiments were carried out using a purpose built X-ray fluorescence XRF spectrometer chamber developed by the Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt, Germany's national metrology institute. The XRF instrumentation is absolutely calibrated and allows for reference-free quantitation of rock sample composition, taking into account secondary photon- and electron-induced enhancement effects. The fluorescence data, in turn, have been used to validate a planetary fluorescence simulation tool based on the GEANT4 transport code. This simulation can be used as a mission analysis tool to predict the time-dependent orbital XRF spectral distributions from planetary surfaces throughout the mapping phase.

To monitor the stability, two custom-made ultra-precise high-voltage dividers were developed and built in cooperation with the German national metrology institute Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt PTB. Until now, regular absolute calibration of the voltage dividers required bringing the equipment to the specialised metrology laboratory.

This result demonstrates the utility of the calibration method, as well as the long-term stability of the voltage divider. In Anbetracht der langen Historie der Medizintechnik ist sie jedoch eine sehr junge Disziplin. Stereo particle image velocimetry set up for measurements in the wake of scaled wind turbines. The stereo PIV instrumentation was set up to survey the three velocity components on cross-flow planes at different longitudinal locations.

The area of investigation covered the entire extent of the wind turbines wake that was scanned by the use of two separate traversing systems for both the laser and the cameras. Such instrumentation set up enabled to gain rapidly high quality results suitable to characterise the behaviour of the flow field in the wake of the scaled wind turbine. This would be very useful for the evaluation of the performance of wind farm control methodologies based on wake redirection and for the validation of CFD tools.

Determining orbital particle parameters of impacts into germanium using morphology analysis and calibration data from hypervelocity impact experiments in the laboratory. This paper describes the work that is done at the Lehrstuhl fur Raumfahrttechnik lrt at the Technische Universitat Munchen to examine particle impacts into germanium surfaces which were flown on board the LDEF satellite. Besides the description of the processing of the samples, a brief overview of the particle launchers at our institute is given together with descriptions of impact morphology of high- and hypervelocity particles into germanium.

Since germanium is a brittle, almost glass-like material, the impact morphology may also be interesting for anyone dealing with materials such as optics and solar cells. The main focus of our investigations is to learn about the impacting particle's properties, for example mass, velocity and direction.

This is done by examining the morphology, various geometry parameters, crater obliqueness and crater volume. Novel spectrometers for environmental dose rate monitoring.

Novel reference radiation fields for pulsed photon radiation installed at PTB. It has been known for a few years that active electronic dosemeters exhibit considerable deficits or can even fail completely in pulsed fields. Type test requirements for dosemeters exist only for continuous radiation. Owing to the need of a reference field for pulsed photon radiation and accordingly to the upcoming type test requirements for dosemeters in pulsed radiation, the Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt has developed a novel X-ray reference field for pulsed photon radiation in cooperation with a manufacturer.

This reference field, geared to the main applications in the field of medicine, has been well characterised and is now available for research and type testing of dosemeters in pulsed photon radiation. The comparison was made via a calibrated transfer standard measured at each of the NMIs facilities using their laboratory standard during the period May to September The transfer package constructed for this comparison preformed as designed and provided a stable artifact to compare laboratory standards. Overall the participants were found to be statistically equivalent to the key comparison reference value.

Applications of these satellites such as car navigation systems, weather predictions, and, digital maps such as Google Earth or Google Maps play a more and more important role in our daily life. Today, researchers within geodesy, climatology, oceanography, meteorology as well as within Earth system science are all dependent on up-to-date satellite data. Design, development and handling of these missions require experts with knowledge not only in space engineering, but also in the specific applications.

That gives rise to a new kind of engineers - satellite application engineers. The study program for these engineers combines parts of different classical disciplines such as geodesy, aerospace engineering or electronic engineering. It is an international, interdisciplinary Master's program, and is open to students with a BSc in both Science e. Geodesy, Mathematics, Informatics, Geophysics and Engineering e. Aerospace, Electronical and Mechanical Engineering. The program is completely conducted in English. ESPACE benefits from and utilizes its location in Munich with its unique concentration of expertise related to space science and technology.

Immunotoxicity and genotoxicity testing for in-flight experiments under microgravity. Phagocytotic activity is based on the chemotaxis and adhesion, ingestion and phagosome formation. The attachment at the surface of the hemocytes and consequently the uptake of the particles or bacteria can be directly quantified in the format of a fluorescent assay.

Another relevant endpoint of phagocytosis is oxidative burst measured by luminescence. Phagocytosis-related production of ROS will be stimulated with opsonised zymosan. The hemocytes will be stored frozen at oC and reconstituted in-flight for the experiment. The indicator cells are the hemocytes of blue mussels Mytilus edulis. The signals of the immuno cellular responses are translated into luminescence as a rapid optical reporter system.

The samples for genotoxicity will be processed after returning to earth. The immune system of invertebrates has not been studied so far in space. Sonification of acoustic emission data.

Influence of ionospheric disturbances onto long-baseline relative positioning in kinematic mode.

Ionospheric disturbances are fast and random variabilities in the ionosphere and they are difficult to detect and model. Some strong disturbances can cause, among others, interruption of GNSS signal or even lead to loss of signal lock. These phenomena are especially harmful for kinematic real-time applications, where the system availability is one of the most important parameters influencing positioning reliability.

Our investigations were conducted using long time series of GNSS observations gathered at high latitude, where ionospheric disturbances more frequently occur. Selected processing strategy was used to monitor ionospheric signatures in time series of the coordinates. Quality of the data of input and of the processing results were examined and described by a set of proposed parameters.

Variations in the coordinates were compared with available information about the state of ionosphere derived from Neustrelitz TEC Model NTCM and with the time series of raw observations. The paper presents very first results of evaluation of the robustness of positioning algorithms with respect to ionospheric anomalies using the NTCM model and our calculated ionospheric parameters.

Simulation of a GOX-kerosene subscale rocket combustion chamber. The subscale rocket combustion chamber uses GOX and kerosene as propellants which are injected through a single double swirl element. Especially the modeling of the double swirl element and the measured wall roughness were adapted on the LFA hardware.

Also the influences of soot deposition and hot gas radiation on the wall heat flux were analytically and numerically estimated. In context of reviewing the implemented evaporation model in Rocflam-II, the binary diffusion coefficient and its pressure dependency were analyzed. Finally simulations have been performed for different load points with Rocflam-II showing a good agreement compared to test data.

Adaption of an array spectroradiometer for total ozone column retrieval using direct solar irradiance measurements in the UV spectral range. A compact array spectroradiometer that enables precise and robust measurements of solar UV spectral direct irradiance is presented. We show that this instrument can retrieve total ozone column TOC accurately. The internal stray light, which is often the limiting factor for measurements in the UV spectral range and increases the uncertainty for TOC analysis, is physically reduced so that no other stray-light reduction methods, such as mathematical corrections, are necessary.

The results showed deviations of the TOC of less than 1. Final report on the key comparison CCM. Main text To reach the main text of this paper, click on Final Report. Final report on bilateral supplementary comparison APMP. NIM piloted the comparison and provided the transfer standard, which was a piston-cylinder assembly PCA of 1 cm2 nominal effective area built in a hydraulic pressure balance manufactured by Fluke Corporation. The results of the comparison successfully demonstrated that the hydraulic gauge pressure standards of NIM and PTB in the range of 1 MPa to 10 MPa are equivalent within their claimed uncertainties.

This sensitivity was achieved after background levels were reduced significantly. This set consists of two imaging diagnostics with spatial, temporal, and broadband spectral resolution. The design requires a vulnerability approach, because components will operate in a harsh environment induced by neutron fluxes, gamma rays, debris, and shrapnel. Grazing incidence x-ray microscopes are fielded as far as possible away from the target to minimize potential damage and signal noise due to these sources.

These imaging diagnostics incorporate microscopes with large source-to-optic distance and large size gated microchannel plate detectors. Microscopes include optics with grazing incidence mirrors, pinholes, and refractive lenses. Bisher haben wir nur das thermische Verhalten von Stoffen einheitlicher Konsistenz diskutiert. Development and evaluation of thermal model reduction algorithms for spacecraft. This paper is concerned with the topic of the reduction of thermal models of spacecraft. The reduction of thermal models can be divided into the simplification of the geometry model for calculation of external heat flows and radiative couplings and into the reduction of the underlying mathematical model.

For simplification a method has been developed which approximates the reduced geometry model with the help of an optimization algorithm. Different linear and nonlinear model reduction techniques have been evaluated for their applicability in reduction of the mathematical model. Additional model reduction methods have been developed, which account to these constraints. The Matrix Reduction method allows the approximation of the differential equation to reference values exactly expect for numerical errors.

The summation method enables a useful, applicable reduction of thermal models that can be used in industry. In this work a framework for model reduction of thermal models has been created, which can be used together with a newly developed graphical user interface for the reduction of thermal models in industry.

Sinusoidal force calibration method based on electrodynamic shaker and interferometric system was studied several years before at Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt PTB. It uses electrodynamic shakers to generate dynamic force in the range from 1N to 20kN, and heterodyne laser interferometers are used for acceleration measurement. A new air bearing system is developed to increase the performance of shakers and an active vibration isolator is used to reduce enviromental disturbance to the interferometric system.

Dislocations are ubiquitous in metals where their motion presents the dominant and often the only mode of plastic response to straining. Over the last 25 years computational prediction of plastic response in metals has relied on Discrete Dislocation Dynamics DDD as the most fundamental method to account for collective dynamics of moving dislocations.

Here we present first direct atomistic MD simulations of dislocation-mediated plasticity that are sufficiently large and long to compute plasticity response of single crystal tantalum while tracing the underlying dynamics of dislocations in all atomistic details. Where feasible, direct MD simulations sidestep DDD altogether thus reducing uncertainties of strength predictions to those of the interatomic potential.

In the specific context of shock-induced material dynamics, the same MD models predict when, under what conditions and how dislocations interact and compete with other fundamental mechanisms of dynamic response, e.

This work was performed under the auspices of the U. Compact NE neutron spectrometer with high energy resolution for fusion applications. Neutron spectrometry is a tool for obtaining important information on the fuel ion composition, velocity distribution and temperature of fusion plasmas. The results show that this system can operate in a real fusion experiment as a neutron 1.

To validate the DAQ system, a new data analysis code was developed and tests were done using measurements with MeV neutrons made at the PTB accelerator. The best results were obtained with gates of 35 ns and 80 ns. This differs from what is normally implemented in the analog pulse shape discrimination modules, namely, the fast and long decay emissions of the scintillating light.

A new Ultra Precision Interferometer for absolute length measurements down to cryogenic temperatures. As its precursor, the precision interferometer, it was designed for highly precise absolute length measurements of prismatic bodies, e. The UPI enables a number of enhanced features, e.

In addition to the original concept, the UPI is equipped with an external measurement pathway EMP in which a prismatic body can be placed alternatively. The temperature of the EMP can be controlled in a much wider range compared to the temperature of the interferometer's main chamber.

An appropriate cryostat system, a precision temperature measurement system and improved imaging interferometry were established to permit absolute length measurements down to cryogenic temperature, demonstrated for the first time ever. Results of such measurements are important for studying thermal expansion of materials from room temperature towards less than 10 K. Thermographic techniques and adapted algorithms for automatic detection of foreign bodies in food.

At the moment foreign substances in food are detected mainly by using mechanical and optical methods as well as ultrasonic technique and than they are removed from the further process. These techniques detect a large portion of the foreign substances due to their different mass mechanical sieving , their different colour optical method and their different surface density ultrasonic detection.

Despite the numerous different methods a considerable portion of the foreign substances remain undetected. In order to recognise materials still undetected, a complementary detection method would be desirable removing the foreign substances not registered by the a. After the initial tests turned out to be very promising for the differentiation of food stuffs and foreign substances, more and detailed investigation were carried out to develop suitable algorithms for automatic detection of foreign bodies.

In order to achieve -besides the mere visual detection of foreign substances- also an automatic detection under production conditions, numerous experiences in image processing and pattern recognition are exploited. Results for the detection of foreign bodies will be presented at the conference showing the different advantages and disadvantages of using grey - level, statistical and morphological image processing techniques. The decay proton detector and electronics will be operated at a high electrostatic potential of kV and a magnetic field of 0.

In addition, the APDs will be cooled to 77 K. The APDs are divided into 14 groups of 96 channels, including spares. A firmware was developed for the detector including a self-triggering readout with continuous pedestal calculation and configurable signal detection. It is a time-division multiplexing low layer protocol which provides determined latency for time critical messages, IPBus, and JTAG interfaces. The network has a n: Study of glass hydrometer calibration by hydrostatic weighting.

Glass hydrometers are simple but effective instruments for measuring the density of liquids. Glass hydrometers calibration based on the Archimedes law, using silicon ring as a reference standard solid density, n-tridecane with density stability and low surface tension as the standard working liquid, based on hydrostatic weighing method designs a glass hydrometer calibration system. Glass hydrometer calibration system uses CCD image measurement system to align the scale of hydrometer and liquid surface, with positioning accuracy of 0.

Surface tension of the working liquid is measured by Whihemy plate. According to twice glass hydrometer weighing in the air and liquid can calculate the correction value of the current scale. The results of measurement compare with the Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt PTB ,verifying the validity of the calibration system. New x-ray parallel beam facility XPBF 2. As the existing XPBF which is operated since , the new beamline provides a pencil beam of very low divergence, a vacuum chamber with a hexapod system for accurate positioning of the SPO to be investigated, and a vertically movable CCD-based camera system to register the direct and the reflected beam.

In contrast to the existing beamline, a multilayer-coated toroidal mirror is used for beam monochromatization at 1. Thus the quality of individual pores as well as the focusing properties of large groups of pores can be investigated. The new beamline also features increased travel ranges for the hexapod to cope with larger SPOs and a sample to detector distance of 12 m corresponding to the envisaged focal length of ATHENA.

Microgravity collisions of dust aggregates as an analogue to early planetesimal formation. During the early stages of planet formation the dusty progenitors of planetesimals collided with each other continuously to form the seeds of planets. These collisions could result in growth or disruption depending on the individual impact velocities.

We find sticking occurs at mass ratios larger than Recently, claims were made by Sturrock et al. In this work, more accurate 36Cl decay-rate measurements - performed at the Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig in the period - by means of the triple-to-double coincidence ratio measurement technique - are scrutinised.

The residuals from an exponential decay curve were analysed by a weighted Lomb-Scargle periodogram. The existence of modulations in the frequency range between 0. The invariability of the 36Cl decay constant contradicts the speculations made about the deep solar interior on the basis of instabilities in former activity measurements.

At the Physikalisch- Technische Bundesanstalt, the National Metrology Institute of Germany, a new facility for measuring visual appearance-related quantities has been built up. Compared to standard gonioreflectometers, there are two main new features within this setup. First goniometric measurements of diffuse reflection within 3D-space above the DUT with subsequent colorimetric representation of the obtained data of special effect pigments based on the interference effect are presented.

The activity distribution was measured by means of a customized fuel gamma scanning device, which includes a vertical lifting system to move the fuel rod along its vertical axis. After the fuel elements underwent a relatively short cooling down period, different fission products were detected.

The activity concentration was determined by calibrating the gamma detector with a standard calibration source of known activity and by MCNP6 simulations for the evaluation of self-absorption and geometric effects. Given the specific TRIGA fuel composition, a correction procedure is developed and used in this work for the measurement of the fission product Zr Closing remarks at the symposium in honour of Daniel Bellus.

Critical infrastructures were intensively built during that period, such as streets and railways, houses, governmental buildings, train stations, hospitals and educational facilities. Besides the famous campus of Technische Hoogeschool te Bandoeng ITB , still in the same period, several schools were also constructed. Survey and direct data collecting were used to take the exact embodiment of building design.

Usage and functional analysis were also used to match space and other standard used in a school building at that time. This study will give an understanding of building typology of school during the Dutch Colonial Period in Indonesia. Recent work of decay spectroscopy at RIBF.

Decay properties of exotic nuclei are also essential to model astrophysical events responible for the evolution of the universe such as the rp- and r-process. Since , four experimental campaigns have been successfully completed using fragmentation of Xe beam and in-flight-fission of U beam, approaching for example the key nuclei 78Ni, Zr, Sn, Pd, and Sn.

This contribution highlights the experiments performed, results obtained, and discusses the future perspective of the EURICA project. Franz, Wolfgang , Wohin treibt die Phillipskurve?
