Case Study: Mass Customisation of Individualized Orthotics – The FASHION-ABLE Virtual Development and Production Framework

Procedia CIRP (2014)

Christian Kaiser Thomas Fischer Timo Schmeltzpfenning Michael Stöhr Alexander Artschwager

Until now, mass-customisation of (wearable) products has been seen as higher added value which had (and will have) to compete with ready to wear offers. However, there are fields of application for which customer specific product design, including benefits as optimized fit, is not just an added value but a fundamental need. This is due to the fact that off-the shelf products do not meet the morphological or problem specific diversity needed to assure the functionality of the products. Thus, individualized products are in a lot of cases not just an additional feature but a prerequisite for successful curing. The FASHION-ABLE virtual development and production framework is set up on digital development data of the future products as well as workflow specific data and information objects that are processed in dedicated process steps. Thus first of all the relevant information and data objects will be highlighted and described and in a second step aligned with the underlying workflow. The basic information for individualized production of orthotics is composed out of a customer specific 3D scan that is used to extract the relevant measures and the configuration of the orthotic. To enable automated adaption of pattern to customer measures, 2D CAD models that are enhanced with MtM rules are coexisting with 3D simulation ready CAD data, also enhanced with the same MtM rules to enable virtual proof of fit. These CAD data are provided in a modular way to ensure a lean variant-capable setup. Bringing these CAD data together with the customer specific configuration and the 3D scan then enables to simulate a virtual prototype as well as to generate an optimized customer specific marker.

Estimation of economic losses from tropical cyclones in China at 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C warming using the regional climate model COSMO‐CLM

International Journal of Climatology (2018)

Shanshan Wen Yanjun Wang Buda Su Chao Gao Xue Chen

Adverse impacts and increasing economic losses from tropical cyclones (TCs) are a major focus in respect to the potential global warming of 1.5 °C or even 2.0 °C. Based on observed meteorological data and county‐scale loss records, loss‐inducing rainfall and wind speed thresholds are identified using the regional climate model CCLM to project future TC events in China. An established damage function is combined with future gross domestic product predictions under five shared socio‐economic pathways. At the 1.5 °C warming level, normalized TC losses will be four times higher than in the reference period (1986–2005). At the 2.0 °C warming level, a sevenfold increase is projected. Relative to the 1.5 °C warming level, TCs will become more frequent under the 2.0 °C scenario, especially along the southeast coast of China. Nearly 0.2–0.5% of the increase in gross domestic product might be offset by TC losses between the 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C warming levels, and the single highest TC loss at 2.0 °C may double that at 1.5 °C, with a larger affected area and more severe rainstorms and wind speeds. Rainfall is attributed more often to TC losses than wind speed. Limiting global warming at 1.5 °C would avoid an estimated increase in TC losses of more than 120 billion CNY annually.

Der Ort der Karibik und Zentralamerikas in der Welt – schwache Staaten auf der Pariser Friedenskonferenz

Anuario de Historia de América Latina (2018)

Thomas Fischer

Durante la Primera Guerra Mundial la posición de los estado-naciones del espacio Caribe-centroamericano en el mundo cambió significativamente. Desde el punto de vista de ésta region el cambio mas importante era el auge del intervencionismo estadounidense que fue legitimizado por la doctrina de Monroe. Mientras la influencia estadounidense militar, política, económica y cultural aumentaba, la presencia alemana, inglesa y francesa disminuyó. Con el fin de la Guerra las potencias aliadas querían implementar un nuevo órden mundial. El fundamento de este organismo era la Liga de las Naciones cuyo pacto era elaborado durante la Conferencia de Paz en Paris del enero hasta abril de 1919. Los débiles estados del Caribe y de Centroamérica querían aprovechar el Wilsonian Moment para dar vida a sus ideas. En particular, sus delegados se refirían a los principios wilsonianos acerca del derecho de todos los estados del mundo a soberanía y autodeterminación, o sean grandes o bien pequeños, fuertes o débiles. Esta ponencia elabora los imaginarios de los delegados caribeños y centroamericanos, su potencial y sus límites para darles vida en la prática diplomática asi como las diferencias entre las estrategias y posturas de la región.

Nanoplastics: Unveiling Contamination Routes and Toxicological Implications for Human Health

Current Analytical Chemistry (2024)

Carlos Rafael Silva de Oliveira Gabriela Maestri Gabriel André Tochetto Julia Lemos de Oliveira Éderson Stiegelmaier

Abstract: Nanoplastics (NPs) have emerged as a concerning environmental pollutant due to their ubiquitous presence and potential adverse effects on human health. This review aims to elucidate the routes of NP contamination and their associated toxic effects on various systems within the human body. The inhalation of NPs presents a significant route of exposure, where particles can deposit deep within the respiratory tract, leading to potential respiratory health complications. Similarly, ingestion of NPs through contaminated food and water sources poses a risk to gastrointestinal and urinary tract health. Additionally, dermal permeation of NPs highlights another avenue for exposure, raising concerns about skin health. The potential toxic effects of micro(nano)plastics (MNPs) on human health span across multiple physiological systems. MNPs have been implicated in respiratory ailments, gastrointestinal disturbances, cardiovascular complications, blood abnormalities, compromised immune responses, neurological impairments, and reproductive dysfunctions. Understanding these toxic effects is crucial for developing strategies to mitigate NP exposure and protect human health. This review underscores the urgent need for interdisciplinary research efforts aimed at assessing NP toxicity comprehensively and implementing measures to reduce NP contamination in the environment.

11 Weather Index Insurance and Commercial Applications in China

BRILL eBooks (2014)

Buda Su Feng Tan Fang Yu Thomas Fischer Mingjin Zhan

This chapter describes the advantages and disadvantages of a weather index insurance, comparing it with traditional property and casualty insurance. A case study conducted by the China Meteorological Administration in Fujian Province offers the modus operandi and several developmental suggestions for a weather index insurance and its commercial application. Weather index insurance is based on the index of one or more meteorological conditions. When the weather index reaches a certain level, the insured person or entity receives a standardized compensation. Meteorological indexes such as extreme temperatures, precipitation, wind speed, typhoon intensity, air humidity, among others, are generally used for weather index insurance. Linking the national disaster plan, risk management measures, and the weather index insurance market is critical for post-disaster reconstruction and timely compensation of disaster losses. The Chinese insurance market provides risk management consulting services for the government and enterprises. Keywords: China; China meteorological administration; weather index insurance
