Brief description
Silos in coal-fired power plants are used for the intermediate storage of fly ash from the electrostatic precipitator. In addition to quasi-static effects due to wind, plant technology, payloads, bulk material, etc., high temperature effects in particular must be taken into account. When the fly ash enters the silo, it is not uncommon for its temperature to exceed 80 °C. The temperature of the fly ash in the silo can be very high. Depending on the stiffness of the structure, this results in design-determining constraint stresses. Investigations show that the temperature distribution in the bulk material varies strongly in time and location. In order to determine more precisely the behavior of the structure in the interaction between temperature effect and bulk material load, filling and emptying processes are modeled numerically.

Brief description
Extension of the equivalent member check according to DIN 18800 to the elastic-elastic calculation method. The verification method contained in the standard is modified in such a way that, with the help of an approximation factor, a buckling or torsional buckling verification can be carried out depending on the profile and steel type when limiting the material stress to the elastic range. The approximation factors are available in tabulated form for all common profiles. Thus, the application of the equivalent member check is also possible for components with not predominantly static load.

Brief description
Data transfer in timber construction - Development of a product model for the data exchange of software for planning and manufacturing. All planning and manufacturing information for a building is stored in the product model in a redundancy-free and reference-related manner. The product model consists of a digital building model and the sub-models design, construction, structural analysis, production and AVA. With regard to the desired acceptance by software developers, particular importance is attached to a software-related, construction- and material-specific description in parametric form.
