The purpose of this study was to assess whether or not the food monitoring campaign after the Fukushima nuclear accident has been successful in reducing the number of above-limit-food from reaching the consumers. The ...

Freshwater lenses, as important resource for drinking water, are sensitive to climate changes and sea level rise. To simulate this impact on the groundwater systems, hydraulic subsurface models have to be designed. Geophysical ...

Control of erosion rates (CER) is a key ecosystem service for soil protection. It is mandatory for sustaining the capacity, especially of agroecosystems, to provide ecosystem services. By applying an established framework ...

Die Schallemissionsanalyse zur Spanndrahtbrucherkennung etabliert sich in Deutschland als Verfahren zur Überwachung vorgespannter Konstruktionen. Das Interesse liegt dabei auf der zuverlässigen Erkennung von Spanndrahtbrüchen, ...

Deformation monitoring usually focuses on the detection of whether the monitored objects satisfy the given properties (e.g. being stable or not), and makes further decisions to minimise the risks, for example, the consequences ...

Fatigue damage is a design-driving phenomenon for substructures of offshore wind turbines. However, fatigue design based on numerical simulations is quite uncertain. One main reason for this uncertainty is scattering ...

Das Verbundprojekt SIMULTAN erforscht die Früherkennung für Instabilität, Unruhe und Kollaps von Erdfällen. Der neuartige Forschungsansatz kombiniert strukturelle, geophysikalische, petrophysikalische und hydrologische ...
