Electro-magnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs) are intended as non-contact and non-destructive ultrasound transducers for metallic material. The transmitted intensities from EMATS are modest, particularly at notable lift off distances. Some time ago a concept for a “coil only EMAT” was presented, without static magnetic field. In this contribution, such compact “coil only EMATs” with effective areas of 1–5 cm2 were driven to excessive power levels at MHz frequencies, using pulsed power technologies. RF induction currents of 10 kA and tens of Megawatts are applied. With increasing power the electroacoustic conversion efficiency also increases. The total effect is of second order or quadratic, therefore non-linear and progressive, and yields strong ultrasound signals up to kW/cm2 at MHz frequencies in the metal. Even at considerable lift off distances (cm) the ultrasound can be readily detected. Test materials are aluminum, ferromagnetic steel and stainless steel (non-ferromagnetic). Thereby, most metal types are represented. The technique is compared experimentally with other non-contact methods: laser pulse induced ultrasound and spark induced ultrasound, both damaging to the test object’s surface. At small lift off distances, the intensity from this EMAT concept clearly outperforms the laser pulses or heavy spark impacts.
The presented work formulates an framework in which early prediction of drivers lane change behavior is realized. We aim to build a representation of drivers lane change behavior in order to recognize and to predict driver's intentions as a first step towards a realistic driver model. In the test bed of the Institute of Neuroinformatik, based on the traffic simulator NISYS TRS 1, 10 individuals have driven in the experiments and they performed more then 150 lane change maneuvers. Lane-offset, distance to the front car and time to contact, were recorded. The acquired data was used to train - in parallel- a recurrent neural network, a feed forward neural network and a set of support vector machines. In the followed test drives the system was able of performing a lane change prediction time of 1.5 sec beforehand. The proposed approach describes a framework for lane-change detection and prediction, which will serve as a prerequisite for a successful driver model.

LEDs gelten als umweltfreundliche Beleuchtungstechnik. Für die Massenanwendung arbeiten die LED-Hersteller an einer Senkung der Kosten bzw. einer Erhöhung der Ausbeute, insbesondere bei der aufwendigen LED-Kristallbeschichtung auf den Wafern. Während der Beschichtung (MOCVD) werden optische In-situ-Messgeräte zur Überwachung des Prozesses genutzt. Die hier vorgestellte Untersuchung beschäftigt sich mit dem Einfluss von Super-Photolumineszenz-Effekten bei einer möglichen In-situ-Prozesskontrolle in der MOCVD.
The development of innovative measuring technology for process optimization in hot rolling mills becomes more and more relevant because of increasing demands on product quality. Measurement technology for high-resolution non-contact cross-sectional area measurement has shown that the variation in cross-sectional area contains information about the rolling process. This information can be used for the development of new measurement devices and analytical methods for process optimization. The harsh environmental conditions and strict safety regulations result in great effort when implementing a new sensor prototype in hot rolling mills. For this reason, this work presents a mechatronic test stand that can simulate the cross-sectional area variation under laboratory conditions realistically.
Global software development changes the requirements in terms of soft competency and increases the complexity of social interaction by including intercultural aspects. While soft competency is often seen as crucial for the success of global software development projects, the concrete competence requirements remain unknown. Internationalization competency represents one of the first attempts to structure and describe the soft competence requirements for global software developers. Based on the diversity of tasks, competence requirements will differ among the various phases of software development. By conducting a survey on the importance of internationalization competences for the different phases of global software development, we identified differences in terms of competence importance and requirements in the phases. “Adaptability” (of one's working style) and “Cultural Awareness” were the main differences. “Cultural Awareness” distinguishes requirements engineering and software design from testing and implementation while “Adaptability” distinguishes implementation and software design from requirements engineering and testing.
