The wind energy sector is undergoing digitalization processes that span multi-tier supply chains of turbine components and wind farm maintenance, amongst others. In an industrial use case that includes Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, Vestas and APQP4Wind, the processes of producing, fastening, and servicing bolts in turbines are mapped to a digital model. The model follows the lifetime of turbine bolts from the manufacturing phase, to fastening in turbines and maintenance, until their replacement and recycling. The development of the digital model is iteratively addressed in a design science research approach, as the authors actively contribute to the project. Distributed ledgers (DLs) support the notary documentation of the bolts and turbines, from their registration phase to the assembly-, technical service verification- and recycling phases. The immutable and decentralized nature of DLs secures the data against tampering and prevents any changes taken unilaterally by engaging the service stakeholders and component providers in a blockchain consortium.
This thesis deals with the development of a methodology / concept to analyse targeted attacks against IIoT / IoT devices. Building on the established background knowledge about honeypots, fileless malware and injection techniques a methodology is created that leads to a concept of a honeypot analyzation system. The system is created to analyse and detect novel threats like fileless attacks which are often utilized by Advanced Persistent Threats. That system is partially implemented and later evaluated by performing a simulated attack utilizing fileless attacks. The effectiveness is discussed and rated based on the results.
When entering waterways that are restricted either in height, width or by another vessel, the behaviour of a ship changes. The most evident effect of navigating in shallow water is the squat which has led to several groundings. Because of pressure differences the vessel is pulled down into the water and the trim is changed. Another shallow water effect is the speed loss due to an increase in resistance which can reduce the maximal speed by upto 50 percent. In general the behaviour of a ship in shallow water is said to be sluggish, meaning that it is more difficult to navigate which affects the radius of the turning circle among others. Sailing parallel to a close-by bank affects the lateral force and the yaw moment. The interaction with other ships has similar effects as bank effects, but is more sophisticated since more parameters play a major role. In this thesis each of these effects is researched by studying several papers by renowned researchers.
Several models are developed which are correspondent with the inherent model of forces and moments of the simulation program. The challenges and obstacles that arised during modelling and implementation are pointed out and solutions or approaches are given.
In this work, a protocol for portable nanopore sequencing of DNA from pollen collected from honey bees, bumble bees, and wild bees was developed. DNA metabarcoding is applied to identify genera within the mixed DNA samples. The DNA extraction and ITS and ITS2 PCR parameters tested for this purpose were applied to the collected pollen sample and the amplicons were then decoded using the Flongle sequencer adapter from Oxford Nanopore Technologies. It is shown that the main pollinator resources at the different sites can be identified in percentage proportions. The protocol generated in this study can be used for further ecological questions.
Development of a genetic biomonitoring test for the investigation of pollinator-plant-interactions
(2021)
There is a world-wide decline in biodiversity recorded. Especially insects and accompanying pollinators are threatened. When the foraging behaviour of pollinators is understood in detail, future crop and floral pollination services can be sustained and it is possible to establish projects for the conservation of pollinators and plant biodiversity. With the use of nanopore sequencing methods it is possible to detect pollen species that were collected by pollinators by their genetic information. In this study, a protocol for portable nanopore sequencing of DNA from pollen that was collected by honey bees, bumble bees and wild bees is being designed. DNAmetabarcoding is used to identify species within the mixed DNA sample. The ITS2-region will be used as a barcode. We will investigate pollen preferences of three pollinator species by placing their hives or nests at the same. Based on the results, landscape management schemes are developed that target pollen preferences and nutritional requirements of managed and wild social bee species as well as solitary wild bees.
Mapping identities, digital assets, and people’s profiles on the internet is getting much traction in the blockchain cosmos lately. The new technology is currently forming architectures that will further pave new ways to reach fundamental mechanisms to interact in a decentralized, user-centered manner. These schemes are often declared as the next generation of the web. Within the article will be shown, how the internet has evolved in managing identities, what problems arose, and how new data architectures help build applications on top of privacy rights. Both technological and ethical perspectives are viewed to answer which guidelines should be considered to fulfill the upcoming branch of decentralized services and what we can learn from historical schemes regarding their privacy, accounting, and user data.
Digital innovation in the quality management system from supply chain to final product conformityy
(2019)
As the new revolution is happening in the industry 4.0 as digitalization and the new trend in innovation is taken place. So, we want to digitalize the process from the supply chain to the final product conformity of the aircraft.
So every document which is received from the supplier like (eg.CoC, Inspection report, concession) digitally. When the part is received at the warehouse of the OEM the warehouse personal has a system to say that part A serial no X is the perfect fit for the part no By with the help of QR code and book the part into the ERP.
The biggest challenge we have is to reduce in production inspection method to be done by a human. We want to bring one more upper step that is automation with edition with IOT in the process to give better data processing to the Automation process plus reduce the overall inspection time and what is needed in create a proper visual automation control system and also with help of gauge Rand R make the process more accurate and also certify the traceability of the process . At finally there was so much data and we need data security for that to create a proper data source and data storage for supplier data as well as internal data security.
Digital Power of Attorney catalyzed by Software Requirements for Blockchain-based Applications
(2022)
Blockchain Technology (BT) with so-called web3 is at an inflection point between new sub-theme hypes and world-wide industrialization over last three years thanks to large companies like MicroStrategy [1], Facebook [2] and several Venture-Capital formations [3] who are already fighting over market share and community growth. Our work represents insights from Literature-based Software Requirement (SR) elicitation for a specific Blockchain-based Application, which is creation, managing and control of digital Power of Attorney (POA). The context of POA is not only a financial driven use-case it is by far a heavy weight universal legal transaction. We use a morphological box and reduced PRIMS-P to synthesis a generic specification for further Blockchain-based Application development. Formulated SRs in POA context are reflected on our core actors which are Grantor and authorized, trusted, external Entities. Proposed characteristics for relationship and effects are visualized in a reference model originally used in digital platform ecosystems [4]. This design and modelling approach facilitated closing discussion of BT and its future eCommerce perspective.
In the following bachelor thesis the current trends and potential applications of digitalization in the service industry will be discussed. With the nowadays surging demand on digitalization in all industries, there are branches of the service industry where digitalization is yet to be exploited to its full potential. However, it is difficult to pick and choose which branches of the industry should be fully digitized and which should be partially digitized. The result of this work should therefore facilitate the process of applying digitization in the consulting services where face to face human interaction has been the key to the industry for years. For this purpose, essential factors to be taken into account were identified, which are to be sought after through the analysis, in the specification of the system requirements as well as in the performance of a utility value analysis.
The endogen steroid hormone 17b-estradiol is a central player in a wide range of physiologic, behavioral processes and diseases in vertebrates. As a consequence, it is a main target for molecular design and drug discovery efforts in medicine and environmental sciences, which requires in-depth knowledge of protein-ligand binding processes. This work develops a bioinformatic framework based on local and global structure similarity for the characterization of E2-protein interactions in all 35 publicly available three-dimensional structures of estradiol-protein complexes. Subsequently, it uses gained data to identify four geometrically conserved estradiol binding residue motifs, against which the Protein Data Bank is queried. As result of this database query, 15 hits present in seven protein structures are found. Five of these structures do not contain E2 as ligand and had thus not been included in this work’s initial data set. One of these newly detected structures is structurally and functionally dissimilar, as well as evolutionarily distant from all other proteins analyzed in this work. Nevertheless, the ability of this protein to actually bind estradiol must be further analyzed. Finally, geometrically conserved E2-protein interactions are identified and a new research direction using these conserved interaction ensembles for the detection of novel estradiol targets is proposed.
