Higher‐order finite element methods have emerged as an important discretization scheme for simulation. They are increasingly used in contemporary numerical solvers, generating a new class of data that must be analyzed by scientists and engineers. Currently available visualization tools for this type of data are either batch oriented or limited to certain cell types and polynomial degrees. Other approaches approximate higher‐order data by resampling resulting in trade‐offs in interactivity and quality. To overcome these limitations, we have developed a distributed visualization system which allows for interactive exploration of non‐conforming unstructured grids, resulting from space‐time discontinuous Galerkin simulations, in which each cell has its own higher‐order polynomial solution. Our system employs GPU‐based raycasting for direct volume rendering of complex grids which feature non‐convex, curvilinear cells with varying polynomial degree. Frequency‐based adaptive sampling accounts for the high variations along rays. For distribution across a GPU cluster, the initial object‐space partitioning is determined by cell characteristics like the polynomial degree and is adapted at runtime by a load balancing mechanism. The performance and utility of our system is evaluated for different aeroacoustic simulations involving the propagation of shock fronts. 相似文献
In der Medizin werden gro?e Mengen an Daten generiert, die sich auf diagnostische Prozeduren, Behandlungsentscheidungen und Ergebnisse der Behandlung beziehen. Medizinische Bilddaten, z. B. Computertomografie (CT) und Kernspintomografiedaten (MRT), werden h?ufig akquiriert. Diese Daten müssen effizient analysiert werden, um klinische Entscheidungen ad?quat zu unterstützen. Insbesondere müssen Bildanalysetechniken, wie die Segmentierung und Quantifizierung anatomischer Strukturen und die visuelle Exploration der Daten, integriert werden. Neben den Anforderungen der individuellen Behandlung ergeben sich weitere Herausforderungen für die Datenauswertung aus den Bedürfnissen der klinischen Forschung, der ?ffentlichen Gesundheitsvorsorge und der Epidemiologie. Die Rolle des Benutzers ist hier die eines Forschers, der Daten untersucht und dabei z. B. potenzielle Korrelationen zwischen Risikofaktoren und der Entstehung von Erkrankungen analysiert. Die visuelle Exploration, bei der oft mehrere koordinierte Ansichten genutzt werden, und statistische Analysen müssen dazu geeignet integriert werden. Oft sind dabei die r?umliche (geografische) Verteilung der Patienten und die zeitliche Entwicklung von Erkrankungsf?llen wesentlich. Daher müssen die medizinischen Daten in ihrem r?umlichen und zeitlichen Bezug repr?sentiert werden, sodass eine enge Verbindung zwischen geografischen Informationssystemen und der Datenvisualisierung entsteht. 相似文献
Der Betreiber eines Verkehrsflughafens muss Bereiche, die nicht allgemein zug?nglich sind, gegen unberechtigten Zugang sichern und darf, soweit es sich um sicherheitsempfindliche Bereiche handelt, den Zugang nur berechtigten Personen gestatten. Der Flughafenbetreiber gibt dazu an die Zutrittsberechtigten Ausweise aus, mit denen diese sich beim Betreten des Sicherheitsbereiches authentifizieren müssen. Für den neuen Flughafen Berlin-Brandenburg International BBI wird auf den Ausweisen wegen der stark wachsenden Anzahl der zu überprüfenden Personen als zus?tzliches Authentifizierungselement eine biometrische Referenz gespeichert. Bei der Auswahl des biometrischen Verfahrens sind die besonderen Bedingungen von Verkehrsflugh?fen in Betracht zu ziehen. 相似文献
The stability and coupling of liquid films coating the walls of a parallel-plate channel and sheared by a pressure-driven gas flow along the channel center plane is studied. The films are susceptible to a long-wavelength instability. For sufficiently low Reynolds numbers and thick gas layers, the dynamic behavior is found to be described by two coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. A linear stability analysis is conducted under the condition that the material properties and the initial undisturbed liquid-film thicknesses are equal. The linear analysis is utilized to determine whether the interfaces are predominantly destabilized by the variations of the shear stress or by the pressure gradient acting upon them. The analysis of the weakly nonlinear equations performed for this case shows that instabilities corresponding to a vanishing Reynolds number are absent from the system. Moreover, for this configuration, the patterns emerging along the two interfaces are found to be identical in the long-time limit, implying that the films are fully synchronized. A different setup, where the liquid films have identical material properties but their undisturbed thicknesses differ, is studied numerically. The results show that, even for this configuration, the interfacial waves remain phase-synchronized and closely correlated for an extended period of time. These findings are particularly relevant for gaseous flow through narrow ducts with liquid-coated walls. 相似文献
Modern industrial facilities consist of controllers, actuators and sensors that are connected via traditional IT equipment. The ongoing integration of these systems into the communication network yields to new threats and attack possibilities. In industrial networks, often distinct communication protocols like Profinet IO (PNIO) are used. These protocols are often not supported by typical network security tools. In this work, we present two attack techniques that allow to take over the control of a PNIO device, enabling an attacker to replay previously recorded traffic. We model attack detection rules and propose an intrusion detection system (IDS) for industrial networks which is capable of detecting those replay attacks by correlating alerts from traditional IT IDS with specific PNIO alarms. As an additional effort, we introduce defense in depth mechanisms in order to prevent those attacks from taking effect in the physical world. Thereafter, we evaluate our IDS in a physical demonstrator and compare it with another IDS dedicated to securing PNIO networks. In a conceptual design, we show how network segmentation with flow control allows for preventing some, but not all of the attacks. 相似文献
This paper proposes a simplicity-oriented approach and framework for language-to-language transformation of, in particular, graphical languages. Key to simplicity is the decomposition of the transformation specification into sub-rule systems that separately specify purpose-specific aspects. We illustrate this approach by employing a variation of Plotkin’s Structural Operational Semantics (SOS) for pattern-based transformations of typed graphs in order to address the aspect ‘computation’ in a graph rewriting fashion. Key to our approach are two generalizations of Plotkin’s structural rules: the use of graph patterns as the matching concept in the rules, and the introduction of node and edge types. Types do not only allow one to easily distinguish between different kinds of dependencies, like control, data, and priority, but may also be used to define a hierarchical layering structure. The resulting Type-based Structural Operational Semantics (TSOS) supports a well-structured and intuitive specification and realization of semantically involved language-to-language transformations adequate for the generation of purpose-specific views or input formats for certain tools, like, e.g., model checkers. A comparison with the general-purpose transformation frameworks ATL and Groove, illustrates along the educational setting of our graphical WebStory language that TSOS provides quite a flexible format for the definition of a family of purpose-specific transformation languages that are easy to use and come with clear guarantees.
Abstract— In the past, a five‐mask LTPS CMOS process requiring only one single ion‐doping step was used. Based on that process, all necessary components for the realization of a fully integrated AMOLED display using a 3T1C current‐feedback pixel circuit has recently been developed. The integrated data driver is based on a newly developed LTPS operational amplifier, which does not require any compensation for Vth or mobility variations. Only one operational amplifier per column is used to perform digital‐to‐analog conversion as well as current control. In order to achieve high‐precision analog behavior, the operational amplifier is embedded in a switched capacitor network. In addition to circuit verification by simulation and analytic analysis, a 1‐in. fully integrated AMOLED demonstrator was successfully built. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first implementation of a fully integrated AMOLED display with current feedback. 相似文献
We present an approach for the visualization and interactive analysis of dynamic graphs that contain a large number of time steps. A specific focus is put on the support of analyzing temporal aspects in the data. Central to our approach is a static, volumetric representation of the dynamic graph based on the concept of space-time cubes that we create by stacking the adjacency matrices of all time steps. The use of GPU-accelerated volume rendering techniques allows us to render this representation interactively. We identified four classes of analytics methods as being important for the analysis of large and complex graph data, which we discuss in detail: data views, aggregation and filtering, comparison, and evolution provenance. Implementations of the respective methods are presented in an integrated application, enabling interactive exploration and analysis of large graphs. We demonstrate the applicability, usefulness, and scalability of our approach by presenting two examples for analyzing dynamic graphs. Furthermore, we let visualization experts evaluate our analytics approach.
Droplet-based microfluidic allows high throughput experimentation in with low volume droplets. Essential fluidic process steps are on the one hand the proper control of the droplet composition and on the other hand the droplet processing, manipulation and storage. Beside integrated fluidic chips, standard PTFE-tubings and fluid connectors can be used in combination with appropriate pumps to realize almost all necessary fluidic processes. The segmented flow technique usually operates with droplets of about 100–500 nL volume. These droplets are embedded in an immiscible fluid and confined by channel walls. For the integration of segmented flow applications in established research workflows—which are usually base on microtiter plates—robotic interface tools for parallel/serial and serial/parallel transfer operations are necessary. Especially dose–response experiments are well suited for the segmented flow technique. We developed different transfer tools including an automated “gradient take-up tool” for the generation of segment sequences with gradually changing composition of the individual droplets. The general working principles are introduced and the fluidic characterizations are given. As exemplary application for a dose–response experiment the inhibitory effect of antibiotic tetracycline on Escherichia coli bacteria cultivated inside nanoliter droplets was investigated. 相似文献
