Research Data Repository of Saxon Universities

OPARA is the Open Access Repository and Archive for Research Data of Saxon Universities.


Researchers of Saxon Universities can either publish their research data on OPARA, or archive it here to comply with requirements of funding acencies and good scientic practice, without public access.

You can find the documentation of this service at the ZIH Data Compendium websites. If you need suppourt using OPARA please contact the Servicedesk of TU Dresden.

Please note: The OPARA service was recently upgraded to a new technical platform (this site). Previously stored data will not be available here immediately. It can be found at the still active old version of OPARA. These stock data will be migrated in near future and then the old version of OPARA will finally be shut down. Existing DOIs for data publications remain valid.

Extended Phase-Field Method (XPFM) - Data corresponding to publication: "An enriched phase-field method for the efficient simulation of fracture processes" by Loehnert et al. (2023)
(Technische Universität Dresden, 2024-04-22) Curosu, Verena
This dataset contains the numerical values corresponding to the graphs within the scientific (open-access) contribution "An enriched phase-field method for the efficient simulation of fracture processes" by Loehnert et al. (2023) (https://doi.org/10.1007/s00466-023-02285-z). Abstract of Paper: The efficient simulation of complex fracture processes is still a challenging task. In this contribution, an enriched phase-field method for the simulation of 2D fracture processes is presented. It has the potential to drastically reduce computational cost compared to the classical phase-field method (PFM). The method is based on the combination of a phase-field approach with an ansatz transformation for the simulation of fracture processes and an enrichment technique for the displacement field as it is used in the extended finite element method (XFEM) or generalised finite element method (GFEM). This combination allows for the application of significantly coarser meshes than it is possible in PFM while still obtaining accurate solutions. In contrast to classical XFEM / GFEM, the presented method does not require level set techniques or explicit representations of crack geometries, considerably simplifying the simulation of crack initiation, propagation, and coalescence. The efficiency and accuracy of this new method is shown in 2D simulations.

STABEEL - Messkampagne 2023/Q1 - Experimentelle Verifikation von Umrichterinteraktionen Q(U)-geregelter Erzeugungsanlagen am Dynamischen Netzmodell (physikalische 220-kV-Netznachbildung) des TUD - IEEH
(Technische Universität Dresden, 2024-03-19) Krahmer, Sebastian; Ecklebe, Stefan
Dieses Datenset enthält die erstellten Netz- und Anlagenmodelle, die Beschreibung der durchgeführten Experimente sowie die aufgezeichneten Strom- und Spannungsverläufe (Messdaten) zur Verifikation und Weiterentwicklung der im STABELL-Projekt aufgestellten Stabilitätskriterien. Die Versuche wurden am Dynamischen Netzmodell des Instituts für Elektroenergieversorgung und Hochspannungstechnik durchgeführt. Dieses Labornetz bildet ein 220-kV-Netz in einem Modellmaßstab von 440 V ab. In dem Versuch wurden die Interaktionen von Q(U)-geregelten Erzeugeranlagen untersucht, in dem diese mit Hilfe der freiparametrierbaren Regelungsplattform (https://tu-dresden.de/ing/elektrotechnik/eti/le/die-professur/Einrichtungen) des Lehrstuhls für Leistungselektronik nachgebildet wurden. Die Arbeiten entstanden im Rahmen des Projektes STABEEL, gefördert durch die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, doi: 10.13039/501100001659) – Projektnummer 442893506.

Strain curves measured with different DFOS types and varying spatial resolution by an ODiSI 6108
(Technische Universität Dresden, 2024-03-15) Herbers, Max
Based on the principle of coherent optical frequency domain reflectometery (c-OFDR), cracks in concrete structures can be precisely localized and their widths determined due to the high spatial resolution in the sub-millimeter range. However, with longer distributed fiber optic sensors (DFOS) lengths, as is common in structural health monitoring, the spatial resolution is reduced. Experimental studies were carried out to investigate the influence of the spatial resolution on the measurement quality in the area of large strain gradients. Four different DFOS, two robust and two filigree DFOS types, were subsequently installed on a 4 m long reinforced concrete beam. In a displacement controlled 4-point bending test, crack widths of up to 0.5 mm were measured with four different gage pitch (gp).
