Performance enhancing study for large scale PEM electrolyzer cells based on hydraulic compression
(2017)
This experimental work deals with the preparation and investigation of PEM fuel cell electrodes, which are obtained using Graphene Related Material (GRM) serving as catalyst support material for platinum nanoparticles. The applied GRM belong to the group of carbon nanofibers and exhibits a helical-ribbon structure with dimensions of 50 nm in diameter and an average length up to a few µm. Furthermore, utilized GRM provide a superior graphitisation degree of about 100 %, which leads to both high corrosion resistance and low ohmic resistance. Material stability plays one of the main roles for long term fuel cell operation, whereby a great electrical catalyst contact combined with high specific surface area yields in high fuel cell performances.
Prior to GRM dispersion and deposition onto a gas diffusion layer, the graphene structures are functionalized by oxygen plasma treatment. Through this step, functional oxygen groups are generated onto the GRM outer surface providing an improved hydrophilic behaviour and facilitating the GRM suspension preparation. In addition, the oxygen groups act as anchors for platinum nanoparticles which are subsequently deposited onto the GRM surface through a pulse electrodeposition process.
Membrane electrode assemblies produced with the prepared electrodes are investigated in-situ in a PEM fuel cell test bench.

Since the 1980’s, against the backdrop of global warming and the decline of conventional energy resources, low emission and renewable energy systems have gotten into the focus of politics as well as research and development. In order to decrease the emission of greenhouse gases Germany intents to generate 80% of its electrical energy from renewable and low emission sources by 2050. For low emission electricity generation hydrogen operated fuel cells are a potential solution. However, although fuel cell technology has been well known since the 19th century cost effective materials are needed to achieve a breakthrough in the market.
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells with Carbon Nanotubes as Electrode Material
At the Westphalian Energy Institute of the Wesphalian University of Applied Sciences one main focus is on the research of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). PEMFC membrane electrode assemblies (MEA) consist of a polymer membrane with electrolytic properties covered on both sides by a catalyst layer (CL) as well as a porous and electrical conductive gas diffusion layer (GDL).
For PEMFC carbon nanotubes (CNT) have ideal properties as electrode material concerning electrical conductivity, oxidation resistance and media transport. CNTs are suitable for the use as catalyst support material within the CL due to their large surface in comparison to conventional carbon supports. Furthermore, oxygen plasma treated CNTs show electrochemical activity referred to hydrogen adsorption and desorption, which has been shown by cyclic voltammetry in 0.5 M sulfuric acid solution. According to the PEMFCs anode a GDL coated with oxygen plasma activated CNTs has promising properties to significantly reduce catalyst content (e.g. platinum) of the anodic CL.
To further increase platinum utilisation in PEM fuel cells CNFs are investigated as catalyst support material due to the CNF’s high specific surface area. Furthermore, CNFs provide suitable properties concerning corrosion resistance as well as electrical conductivity in contrast to conventional carbon supports.
This work presents the results of an electrode preparation procedure based on O2 plasma activated CNFs. The plasma treatment leads to CNF dispersibility in alcohol/water for a spray coating process. Furthermore, O2 plasma activation enhances metal deposition on the CNF’s surface. Pulse plating procedure as well as wet chemical metal synthesis have been used for particle deposition. For pulse plating a potentiostat/galvanostat type MMates 510 AC from Materials Mates, Italy has been used. Electrode morphology has been determined in SEM type XL 30 ESEM from Philips, The Netherlands.
We investigate the possibility to use update propagation methods for optimizing the evaluation of continuous queries. Update propagation allows for the efficient determination of induced changes to derived relations resulting from an explicitly performed base table update. In order to simplify the computation process, we propose the propagation of updates with different degrees of granularity which corresponds to an incremental query evaluation with different levels of accuracy. We show how propagation rules for diferent update granularities can be systematically derived, combined and further optimized by using Magic Sets. This way, the costly evaluation of certain subqueries within a continuous query can be systematically circumvented allowing for cutting down on the number of pipelined tuples considerably.
Opportunities and Challenges in Mixed-Reality for an Inclusive Human-Robot Collaboration Environment
(2018)
This paper presents an approach to enhance robot control using Mixed-Reality. It highlights the opportunities and challenges in the interaction design to achieve a Human-Robot Collaborative environment. In fact, Human-Robot Collaboration is the perfect space for social inclusion. It enables people, who suffer severe physical impairments, to interact with the environment by providing them movement control of an external robotic arm. Now, when discussing about robot control it is important to reduce the visual-split that different input and output modalities carry. Therefore, Mixed-Reality is of particular interest when trying to ease communication between humans and robotic systems.
Measurement studies are essential for research and industry alike to understand the Web’s inner workings better and help quantify specific phenomena. Performing such studies is demanding due to the dynamic nature and size of the Web. An experiment’s careful design and setup are complex, and many factors might affect the results. However, while several works have independently observed differences in
the outcome of an experiment (e.g., the number of observed trackers) based on the measurement setup, it is unclear what causes such deviations. This work investigates the reasons for these differences by visiting 1.7M webpages with five different measurement setups. Based on this, we build ‘dependency trees’ for each page and cross-compare the nodes in the trees. The results show that the measured trees differ considerably, that the cause of differences can be attributed to specific nodes, and that even identical measurement setups can produce different results.
Ameisen der Gattung Cataglyphis sind in der Lage, auf Basis propriozeptiver Signale zu navigieren. Dabei werden Odometrie und der Neigungswinkel des Untergrunds über die Beinbewegung ermittelt. Das System ist robust und funktioniert mit geringem rechnerischen Aufwand. Dadurch eignet es sich als Vorbild für die Navigation von Laufrobotern in schwierigem Gelände. Ziel ist die Entwicklung eines breit anwendbaren generischen Systems, das über ein bionisch inspiriertes Odometer verfügt. Im Speziellen wird untersucht, ob die charakterisierende Größe in der Neigungsbestimmung die in den Beinen wirkenden Kräfte sind. Die Positionierung der Kraftsensoren im Ameisenbein legt eine weitere Vereinfachung auf die in den Gelenken auftretenden Drehmomente nahe. Die Implementierung des Odometers wird in einer Simulation sowie an einer robotischen Einzelbeinplattform validiert. Vorteile dieses Systems sind die kostengünstige und kompakte Implementierung, die im besten Fall keine zusätzlichen Sensoren benötigt und eine Positionsbestimmung in Echtzeit ohne externe Infrastruktur ermöglicht
A simplified model for spondylodesis, ie fixation of vertebrae by osteosynthesis, is developed for virtual magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations to numerically calculate energy absorption. This paper presents results of calculated energy absorption in body tissue surrounding titanium rod implants. In general each wire or rod behaves like an antenna in electromagnetic fields. The specific absorption rate (SAR) profile describes dependence of implant size. SAR hotspots appear near the rod edges. Depending of the size of implant fixation SAR is 62%(small fixation) up to 90.95%(large fixation) higher than without implants. In addition, local SAR profile displays local dependency on tissue: SAR is lower between the vertebrae.
Um die Wasserstofftechnik in Zukunft wirtschaftlich und damit kommerziell am Markt verfügbar werden zu lassen, sind heute noch immer große Forschungs- und Entwicklungsanstrengungen notwendig. Dabei erfordert die Entwicklung von optimierten Komponenten wie beispielsweise der Membran-Elektroden-Einheit (MEA – engl. Membrane Electrode Assembly) für Brennstoffzellen sowie Elektrolyseure reproduzierbare und homogene Prüfbedingungen. Für diesen Zweck ist ein Prüfsystem auf Basis eines von der Westfälischen Hochschule (WHS) patentierten modularen Stackkonzepts mit hydraulischer Verpressung entworfen und realisiert worden. Mit dem hier vorgestellten System ist es möglich, auf Einzelzellenbasis mehrere Proben zum gleichen Zeitpunkt unter identischen Umgebungsbedingungen auf ihre Charakteristik hin zu untersuchen.
