While Virtual Reality hardware and applications advance and learning behaviour changes, it is particularly interesting to determine the possible use of Virtual Reality for teaching engineering subjects, for example fundamentals of robotics. This paper presents a study which examines the possible use of Virtual Reality learning environments at higher learning institutions. The study shows perspectives of students and lecturers and identifies opportunities and challenges for the use of Virtual Reality in industrial engineering education. The results of the indicated study show that the participants have a positive attitude towards Virtual Reality and strong motivation for in class use. The study results also suggest, that Virtual Reality content creation should be included in engineering curricula.}, subject = {Virtual reality}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ChiritaTabakovic, author = {Chirita, Cristian and Tabakovic, Momir}, title = {Optimization of a simulation for thermoelectric generators and their application in water boiler systems with combustion chamber}, series = {X International Conference Industrial Engineering and Environmental Protection}, booktitle = {X International Conference Industrial Engineering and Environmental Protection}, pages = {143 -- 151}, subject = {Generators}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KlamertSchmidTraxlerLackner, author = {Klamert-Schmid, Judith and Traxler, Sabine and Lackner, Maximilian}, title = {The Phenomenon Of 'Opportunity Recognition' Among Engineering Student}, series = {24th International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning(ICL2021), 22.-24.September 2021, Dresden}, booktitle = {24th International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning(ICL2021), 22.-24.September 2021, Dresden}, address = {Dresden}, subject = {Engineering}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{LacknerNovotnyZangletal., author = {Lackner, Maximilian and Novotny, Florian A. and Zangl, Sabine and Lembacher, Harald}, title = {Contribution of waste heat to the anthropogenic greenhouse effect}, series = {2nd International Conference on Environmental Sustainability and Climate Change"}, booktitle = {2nd International Conference on Environmental Sustainability and Climate Change"}, subject = {Sustainability}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WoeberNovotnyAburaiaetal., author = {W{\"o}ber, Wilfried and Novotny, Georg and Aburaia, Mohamed and Otrebski, Richard and Kubinger, Wilfried}, title = {Estimating a Sparse Representation of Gaussian Processes Using Global Optimization and the Bayesian Information Criterion}, series = {Austrian Robotics Workshop 2018}, booktitle = {Austrian Robotics Workshop 2018}, subject = {Mobile Robotics}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DannerederEngelhardtNowitzkiMarkletal., author = {Dannereder, Florian and Engelhardt-Nowitzki, Corinna and Markl, Erich and Lackner, Maximilian and Kreith, Josef and Pachschw{\"o}ll, Paul Herwig and Aburaia, Mohamed and Shooman, Diane}, title = {Development of a 3D-Printed Bionic Hand with Muscle- and Force Control}, series = {Proceedings of the Austrian Robotics Workshop 2018}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Austrian Robotics Workshop 2018}, subject = {Robotics}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{TabakovicBoecklBergeretal., author = {Tabakovic, Momir and B{\"o}ckl, Benjamin and Berger, Michael A. and Hermis, Herbert and Nauschegg, Daniel and Wall, Johannes}, title = {Energieversorgungsl{\"o}sungen auf Quartiersebene}, series = {World Energy Council Austria Young Energy Professionals}, booktitle = {World Energy Council Austria Young Energy Professionals}, subject = {Energy Systems}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GonzalezGutierrezTreitlerSpoerketal., author = {Gonzalez-Gutierrez, Joamin and Treitler, Manuel and Spoerk, Martin and Arbeiter, Florian and Schuschnigg, Stephan and Lammer, Herfried and Lackner, Maximilian and Aburaia, Mohamed and Poszvek, G{\"u}nther and Zhang, Haiguang and Sapkota, Janak and Holzer, Clemes}, title = {Carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastics for material extrusion additive manufacturing}, series = {Conference proceedings of 35th International Conference of the Polymer Processing Society}, booktitle = {Conference proceedings of 35th International Conference of the Polymer Processing Society}, pages = {5}, abstract = {In an effort to broaden the engineering applications of material extrusion based additive manufacturing (MEAM), new materials are being developed. Adding carbon-fibers (CF) has been one strategy to increase the mechanical performance of different thermoplastics. One challenge is to determine the amount of CF needed to increase the mechanical performance without affecting the "printability" of the compounds. In this paper, different amounts (10, 15, and 20 vol.\%) of CF were added to recycled polypropylene (rPP) and polyamide 12 (PA12). A compatibilizer was used for rPP, but not for PA12. Filaments for MEAM were extruded from the different compounds and the viscosity as well as the tensile properties were measured and compared to the processed polymeric matrices. It was observed that the viscosities at the angular frequencies relevant for MEAM (100 to 200 rad/s) were not significantly different for rPP+CF compounds, but it was higher for PA12+CF compounds. As expected, the elongation at break significantly decreased with the addition of CF for all compounds. For the composites with an rPP matrix, the Young's modulus and the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) continuously increased as the CF content increased to 20 vol.\%. For PA12-based materials, the Young's modulus and the UTS increased with CF content, but adding more than 15 vol.\% did not further improve these values. Therefore, it was concluded that for PA12 the maximum amount of CF that should be added was 15 vol.\%. Using scanning electron microscopy, it was observed that the CF were homogeneously dispersed in the rPP matrix, but not so well in the PA12 matrix, with fibers being more concentrated towards the rim of the filament. Finally, filaments of rPP, rPP+20CF, PA12 and PA12+15CF were used to print complex geometries by means of MEAM, and it was observed that CF helped to reduce the warpage compared to the unfilled filaments. A potential application of this phenomenon could be the reduction of the bed temperature to develop a more energy efficient MEAM process for semi-crystalline polymers.}, subject = {Additive Manufacturing}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RauerWoeberAburaia, author = {Rauer, Johannes and W{\"o}ber, Wilfried and Aburaia, Mohamed}, title = {An Autonomous Mobile Handling Robot Using Object Recognition}, series = {Proceedings of ARW \& OAGM Workshop 2019}, booktitle = {Proceedings of ARW \& OAGM Workshop 2019}, subject = {Mobile Robotics}, language = {en} }
