New integrated sensors and connected machine tools generate a tremendous amount of in-depth process data. The continuous transformation of the obtained data into deployable machining knowledge allows for faster ramp-ups, ...

Comprehensive approaches to predict performance of wood products are requested by international standards, and the first attempts have been made in the frame of European research projects. However, there is still an imminent ...

An adaptive learning algorithm using an artificial neural network (ANN) has been proposed to predict the passive joint position of under-actuated robot manipulator. In this approach, a specific ANN model has been designed ...

This thesis contains six essays on financial time series. Special attention is paid to the opportunities that high-frequency data offers for modeling and forecasting the return and the risk, measured by the volatility or ...

The correct prediction of shear stresses in lubricants applied to concentrated rolling/sliding contacts has been an issue of intense debate for many years. Traction testers of various kinds such as two-disc roller rigs or ...

Accurate predictions of the characteristics of urban streets in particular with respect to the typical traffic situations are crucial for numerous real world applications such as navigation, scheduling of logistic and ...

We model currently fabricated industrial-type screen-printed boron-doped Cz silicon solar cells using a combination of process and device simulations. The model reproduces the experimental results precisely and allows us ...

Intra coding is an essential part of all video coding algorithms and applications. Additionally, intra coding algorithms are predestined for an efficient still image coding. To overcome limitations in existing intra coding ...

In this paper a model for a simulation based prediction of temperature induced shape deviations in dry milling is presented. A closed loop between Boolean material removal, process forces, heat flux and thermoelastic ...

While regenerating damaged components, e.g. compressor blades, the removal of excess weld material called re-contouring often determines the surface integrity including the residual stress state. A load-specific residual ...
