    Die vorliegende Arbeit beschreibt die Evaluation einer Infrarotgitter-basierten Multitouchhardware in Hinblick auf ihre Eignung für eine natürlich wirkende gestenbasierte Interaktion. Es wird eine Analyse der Hardware durchgeführt um die Eigenschaften der Hardware bezüglich der Eingabe zu untersuchen. Die Analyse erfolgt mit Hilfe einer Testworkbench welche die Grundlage für alle weiteren Betrachtungen bildet. Im Anschluss wird ein Verfahren vorgestellt, mit dem die während der Analyse erkannten problematischen Eigenschaften der Hardware kompensiert werden sollen. Das erarbeitete Verfahren wird im Rahmen einer Testanwendung eingesetzt und durch einen Usability-Test auf seine praktischen Auswirkungen auf die Eingabequalität für den Anwender untersucht. Abschließend werden die Ergebnisse des Tests ausgewertet sowie mögliche Verbesserungen für zukünftige Arbeiten diskutiert.This thesis describes the evaluation of an infrared grid-based multitouch-hardware in regard to suitability for a natural and gesture-based interaction. An analysis is conducted to determine the properties of the hardware in regard to input handling. The analysis is based on a test-workbench that also serves as a foundation for all further examinations throughout this thesis. After the analysis a method is presented which tries to compensate for the problematic hardware properties that were discovered. The developed method is used in the context of a testing-application and reviewed for its impact on practical input quality by conducting a usability test. The thesis concludes by evaluating the results of the usability test as well as giving an outlook on possible future improvements

    Evaluation of the Fatigue Behavior and Failure Mechanisms of 4340 Steel Coated with WIP-C1 (Ni/CrC) by Cold Spray

    Fatigue behavior of standardized 4340 steel samples uniformly coated with WIP-C1 (Ni/CrC) by cold spray was investigated. In particular, when a crack appeared at the interface between the base material and the coating, the cause of it as well as its shape and size were investigated. Fatigue loading was applied by alternating symmetrical cycles. Scanning electron microscopy was used to study the onset of failure and the subsequent propagation of cracks. The interface between the two materials performed well—in all samples, the initial crack propagation occurred on the surface of the base material, continuing into the coating material and in the interior of the base material. The fatigue durability curve of stress vs. number of cycles (S-N) presented a conventional form for a metallic alloy and the coating material had an influence only on the damage on the surface of the base material
