The energy turnaround, digitalization and decreasing revenues forces enterprises in the energy domain to develop new business models. Business models for renewable energy are compound on different logic than business models for larger scale power plants. Following a design science research approach, we examined the business models of three enterprises in the energy domain in a first step. We identified that these business models result in complex ecosystems with multiple actors and difficult relationships between them. One cause is the fast changing and complicated state regulation in Germany. In order to solve the problem, we captured together with the partners of the enterprises the requirements in a second phase. Further we developed the prototype Business Model Configurator (BMConfig) based on the e3Value Ontology on the metamodelling platform ADOxx. We demonstrate the feasibility of our approach in business model of energy efficiency service based on smart meter data.
In a time of upheaval and digitalization, new business models for companies play an important role. Decentralized power generation and energy efficiency indicators to achieve climate goals and to reduce global warming are currently forcing energy companies to develop new business models. In recent years, many methods of business model development have been introduced to create new business ideas. But what are the obstacles in implementing these business models in the energy sector to develop new business opportunities? And what challenges do companies face in this respect? To answer this question, a systematic literature review was conducted in this paper. As a result, eight categories were identified which summarise the main barriers for the implementation of new business models in the energy domain.
We introduce IPA-IDX – an approach to handle index modifications modern storage technologies (NVM, Flash) as physical in-place appends, using simplified physiological log records. IPA-IDX provides similar performance and longevity advantages for indexes as basic IPA [5] does for tables. The selective application of IPA-IDX and basic IPA to certain regions and objects, lowers the GC overhead by over 60%, while keeping the total space overhead to 2%. The combined effect of IPA and IPA-IDX increases performance by 28%.
Because of saturated markets and of the low profit margins in the sales of cars, car manufacturers focus more and more on profitable product related services. This paper deals with the question how to classify product related services in the automotive industry and which characteristic product related services are offered to the end-users (consumers) in a standardized format. Two research studies on the provided product related services in 2010 und 2017 by 15 car manufacturers and 20 exemplary automotive brands in Germany revealed that the application degree by the OEM (original equipment manufacturers) in these years increased considerably. While in 2010, the average range of services only amounted to 33%, the value in the automotive industry increased until 2017 to 57%.
Mit der Überarbeitung der DIN EN 50173 (VDE 0800-173) Serie, wurden unter anderem die optischen Übertragungsstreckenklassen ersatzlos gestrichen. Um die so entstandene Lücke zu schließen, hat das deutsche Gremium DKE GUK 715.3 „Informationstechnische Verkabelung von Gebäudekomplexen“ neue Klassen erarbeitet, die in der DIN VDE 0800- 173-100 „Klassifizierung von Lichtwellenleiter-Übertragungsstrecken“ im Juni 2019 veröffentlicht wurden. Die Norm klassifiziert Lichtwellenleiter Übertragungsstrecken für anwendungsneutrale Kommunikationskabelanlagen nach DIN EN 50173-1.
Sie dient Benutzern, eine breite Palette von Anwendungen zu ermöglichen, die Auswahl des Verkabelungssystems zu erleichtern, eine zukunftssichere Klassifizierung von LWL-Verkabelungen zu generieren und dazu, Systemanforderungen zu beschreiben.
Die in der Norm definierten Klassen beschreiben die Anforderungen an die Übertragungsstrecken und basieren auf einer maximal zulässigen Einfügedämpfung in dB für maximale Übertragungsstreckenlängen, wobei zusätzlich das Bandbreitenlängenprodukt berücksichtigt wird.
Der Beitrag liefert einen Überblick über die Norm und zeigt Anwendungsbeispiele auf.
Multi-dimensional patient data, such as time varying volume data, data of different imaging modalities, surface segmentations etc. are of growing importance in the clinical routine. For many use cases, it is of major importance to replicate a certain visualization of a data set created on one machine on a different computer using different software tools. Up until now, there exists no standardized methodology for this consistent presentation. We propose an extension of the Digital Imaging und Communications in Medicine (DICOM) called “Multi dimensional Presentation State” and outline scope and first results of the standardization process.
Workflow driven support systems in the peri-operative area have the potential to optimize clinical processes and to allow new situation-adaptive support systems. We started to develop a workflow management system supporting all involved actors in the operating theatre with the goal to synchronize the tasks of the different stakeholders by giving relevant information to the right team members. Using the OMG standards BPMN, CMMN and DMN gives us the opportunity to bring established methods from other industries into the medical field. The system shows each addressed actor their information in the right place at the right time to make sure every member can execute their task in time to ensure a smooth workflow. The system has the overall view of all tasks. Accordingly, a workflow management system including the Camunda BPM workflow engine to run the models, and a middleware to connect different systems to the workflow engine and some graphical user interfaces to show necessary information or to interact with the system are used. The complete pipeline is implemented with a RESTful web service. The system is designed to include different systems like hospital information system (HIS) via the RESTful web service very easily and without loss of data. The first prototype is implemented and will be expanded.
This paper discusses the optimal control problem for increasing the energy efficiency of induction machines in dynamic operation including field weakening regime. In an offline procedure optimal current and flux trajectories are determined such that the copper losses are minimized during transient operations. These trajectories are useful for a subsequent online implementation.
In this work design rules for a novel brushless excitation system for externally excited synchronous machines are discussed. The concept replaces slip rings with a fullbridge active rectifier and a controller mounted on the rotor. An AC signal induced from the stator is used to charge the rotor DC link. The DC current for the rotor excitation is provided from this DC link source. Finite element analysis of an existing machine is used to analyze the practicability of the excitation system.
A novel brushless excitation concept for synchronous machines with a rotating power converter is proposed in this paper. The concept does not need an auxiliary winding or any other modification to the machine structure apart from an inverter with a DC link capacitor and a controller on the rotor. The power required for the rotor excitation is provided by injecting harmonics into the stator winding. Thus, a voltage in the field coil is induced. The rotor inverter is controlled such that the alternating current charges the DC link capacitor. At the same time the inverter supplies the DC field current to the field coil. The excitation concept is first developed in theory, then presented using an analytical model and FEA, and lastly investigated with a prelimininary experimental setup.
