text: The present contribution derives a theoretical framework for constructing
novel geometrical constraints in the context of density-based topology optimization.
Principally, the predefined geometrical dimensionality is enforced locally on
the components of the optimized structures. These constraints are defined using
the principal values (singular values) from a singular value decomposition of
points clouds represented by elemental centroids and the corresponding relative
density design variables. The proposed approach is numerically implemented for
demonstrating the designing of lattice or membrane-like structures. Several numerical
examples confirm the validity of the derived theoretical framework for geometric
dimensionality control.

text: "In this paper, concepts for an extended DC network for the main power
supply of components from various manufacturers in industrial production are presented.
In the first part, detailed requirements for such a network are given
\ from the viewpoint of a customer. Based on those, different concepts
for AC/DC conversion and energy management are discussed. As far as AC/DC conversion
\ is concerned, the advantages and drawbacks of several rectifier topologies
are listed, as they have a significant impact on the system behavior and
\ EMC properties. \r\nAn intelligent energy management can improve the
\ energy efficiency and reduce downtimes of a plant, which are major
requirements from a customer’s viewpoint. "

text: "Additive Manufacturing (AM) increasingly enables the realization of structures,
which have a much greater freedom of design und can therefore better use nature
\ as a design ideal. Bionic design principles have already been introduced
\ into general design approaches, and several topology optimization systems
(TO) are available today to increase structural stiffness and to enable lightweight
\ design. AM and TO, used in synergy, promise completely new application
areas. However, staircase effects resulting from a layer-by-layer build process
\ and unavoidable support structures which must be mechanically removed afterwards
are disadvantageous with respect to surface texture and strength properties.\r\nThe
present article addresses the question of how far the notches resulting from
the staircase effect of Additive Manufacturing and the support structures removed
\ decrease the strength of components. Most engineers try to follow the
inner flow of forces in a part’s design by smoothening surfaces in notched areas.
Considering this, a elected component is investigated with finite element
\ analysis (FEA) with special regard for the concentration of tress arising
from surface notch effects. An outlook is given as regards how a reduction of
the notch effect from the taircase effect can be achieved effectively."

text: "The aerospace sector is characterized by long product life cycles and a need
for lightweight design. Additive manufacturing is a technology that produces parts
layer by layer and thus enables the manufacturing of any complex parts at nearly
no extra costs. A topology optimization enhances the part’s\r\nperformance for
their special purpose. The results are often complex bionic structures that cannot
be produced with conventional manufacturing technologies. The paper analyzes how
the high potential of this technologycan be applied to aerospace parts. A topology
optimization will be conducted for an aircraft part explaining the crucial points
and a life cycle analysis examines the achieved sustainable improvements for the
aircraft’s life cycle.\r\n"

text: This paper describes a method for automatically obtaining the order and position
of contactless connected network participants in a linear physical topology. While
the sequence of network devices can be determined with quite simple methods in
networks with physical interconnections, these methods can not be applied in contactless
networks. This work is based on a linear network topology using a backbone rail,
which includes mechanisms for contactless energy and data transmission. The position
estimation for each attached network device can be performed by determining a
specific physical characteristic, which is altered along the rail extension. The
proposed solution uses a capacitive resonant circuit to achieve a position detection.
