Sammen med tre kolleger har Alfred Heller brugt dagen på at høre fremlæggelser fra 19 grupper af studerende, som har givet hver deres bud på, hvordan et højhus på Aarhus havn kan designes.
Together with three colleagues, Alfred Heller spent the day listening to presentations from 19 groups of students who have given their vision of how an apartment building in the Aarhus Harbour can be designed.
Kursisterne er typisk studerende på sidste del af kandidatretningen i byggeteknologi eller bygningsdesign og bliver på dette kursus sat til at være specialist på et område, der ikke nødvendigvis er inden for deres komfortområde.
The students are typically on the last year of the MSc in Civil Engineering or Architectural Engineering and this course is challenging them to act as a specialist in an area outside of their comfort zone.
Ingeniørstuderende er typisk vant til at verificere produkter eller beregninger, som andre allerede har lavet.
Engineering students typically work with verifying products or calculations already made by others.
Her skal de i stedet designe deres eget produkt helt fra bunden ud fra et sæt anvisninger.
During this course, they are challenged to design their own product from scratch from a set of instructions.
Frustrationer omdannes til vigtige erfaringer
Frustrations are converted to valuable experience
Jan Karlshøj, lektor og sektionsleder for Bygningsdesign på DTU Byg, er ansvarlig for kurset.
Jan Karlshøj, Associate Professor and Head of Building Design at DTU Civil Engineering, is responsible for the course.
De forventes nemlig allerede at have styr på de faglige elementer i kurset.
The students are expected to already master the academic elements of the course.
Det viste sig dog hurtigt, at der ligger vigtige erfaringer i kurset, som rækker ud over den enkeltes faglighed.
It quickly turned out that there are important lessons in the course, which goes beyond the subject knowledge of the individual student.
”Normalt bliver de studerende bedt om at løse en isoleret opgave.
"Usually, the students are asked to solve an isolated task.
Dette kursus er anderledes, fordi forskellige faggrupper skal samarbejde om at skabe et samlet produkt fra bunden.
This course is different because various professions must work together in order to create a unified product from scratch.
Det giver en masse frustrationer for de studerende, mens projektet står på.
That provides a lot of frustration for the students, while the project is in progress.
Den udlægning kan de studerende nikke genkendende til.
The students agree to that statement.
Det står klart for os, at vi er en del af et større system, og det er meget værdifuldt,” lyder det fra gruppen af studerende.
It is clear to us that we are part of a bigger system, and that is very valuable,” is the message from the group of students.

• Absolute scalar magnetometer
Swarm-missionen skal give os mere viden om
The Swarm mission shall provide greater knowledge of:
• 3D-kortlægning af Jordens kappes ledningsevne
• 3D electrical conductivity of the mantle
• strømme i magnetosfæren og ionosfæren
• Currents in the magnetosphere and ionosphere
• oceanernes magnetiske signaturer
• Magnetic signature of the ocean
• magnetfeltets påvirkning af den øvre atmosfære
• Magnetic forcing of the upper atmosphere
Ved udgangen af 2013 sendes en ny generation af satellitter i kredsløb for at undersøge Jordens magnetfelt med langt større præcision og opløsning end tidligere.
In late 2013, a new generation of satellites, the Swarm satellite trio, will be launched to study Earth‘s magnetic field from space with unprecedented precision and resolution.
De tre satellitter sendes ud i tre forskellige polære kredsløb i højder mellem 300 og 530 km.
Swarm is a constellation of three satellites in three different polar orbits between 300 and 530 km of altitude.
Under formationsflyvningen vil præcisionsinstrumenter måle retning, styrke og tidslige variationer af det magnetiske felt.
During their flight, high precision instruments will measure the direction, intensity, and temporal variations of the magnetic field.
Tilsammen vil disse målinger gøre det muligt at beregne højopløselige modeller af de forskellige kilder til Jordens magnetiske felt.
In combination, these measurements will provide the observations necessary to extract high resolution models of the various sources of Earth's magnetic field.
Det historiske perspektiv
A historical perspective
I 1820 opdagede H.C. Ørsted, at elektriske strømme danner magnetfelter, og i 1839 viste C.F. Gauss, at Jordens magnetfelt hovedsageligt dannes af processer i Jordens indre.
In 1820 H.C. Ørsted discovered that electrical currents produce magnetic fields, and in 1839 C.F. Gauss showed that Earth's magnetic field is primarily produced by sources within the planet.
Den første detaljerede kortlægning af styrken og retningen af Jordens magnetiske felt blev leveret af NASA's Magsat-satellit i 1980, men den leverede kun data i 8 måneder.
The first detailed mapping of the strength and direction of Earth's magnetic field was made by the NASA satellite Magsat in 1980, but it flew only for 8 months.
Feltet stammer hovedsageligt fra den yderste del af Jordens kerne, hvor bevægelsen af flydende metal forårsager elektriske strømme.
The magnetic field is primarily generated in Earth's outer core, where motions of liquid metal generate electrical currents by motional induction.

De færreste har hørt om bariumtitanat, BaTIO3, selvom det anvendes i et utal af produkter fra vores hverdagsliv - biler, mobiltelefoner, computere, ultralydskannere og til energikonvertering.
Very few people have heard of barium titanate, BaTIO3, even though it is used in a wide variety of products from our everyday lives-cars, mobile phones, computers, ultrasound scanners, and for energy conversion.
Det er et såkaldt ferroelektrisk materiale, hvis særlige egenskaber bruges i f.eks. kondensatorer, som derved kan opbevare en større mængde elektrisk energi.
It is a so-called ferroelectric material, whose special properties are used in, for example, capacitors, which can store a large quantity of electrical energy.
Det gør ferroelektriske materialer populære at anvende i mange sammenhænge.
Ferroelectrics are therefore a popular choice of material in many contexts.
Vi har koncentreret os om to specifikke områder: de små kerner og domæner, som krystallerne i BaTIO3-materialet består af, og har kunnet se, hvordan de reagerer, når materialet udsættes for et elektrisk felt,” siger adjunkt Hugh Simons fra DTU Fysik, der er ansvarlig for de epokegørende studier, som netop er blevet publiceret i det ansete videnskabelige tidsskrift, Nature Materials.
We have focused on two specific areas: the small nuclei and domains that make up the crystals of the BaTIO3 material, and have been able to see how they react when the material is exposed to an electric field,” says Assistant Professor Hugh Simons from DTU Physics, who is responsible for the groundbreaking studies, which have just been published in the prestigious scientific journal Nature Materials.
”Det har vist sig, at domænernes ellers symmetriske vægge udvides med flere tusindedele af en millimeter og dermed ændrer materialets reaktion på den elektriske påvirkning markant.
“It has turned out that the domains' otherwise symmetrical walls are expanded by several thousandths of a millimetre, thus significantly changing the material's reaction to the electrical impact.
Hugh Simons forventer således, at vi fremover vil se mere effektive kondensatorer og dermed eksempelvis bedre energiudnyttelse i elbiler og en højere opløsning af billeder fra ultralydskanninger på baggrund af hans studie.
Hugh Simons thus expects that we-as a result of his study-will see more efficient condensers and thus, for example, better energy utilization in electric cars and ultrasound images with a higher resolution.

En radikal idé er klassificeret ved at være høj risiko - høj belønning.
A radical idea is classified by being high risk - high reward.
Som sådan er mange radikale ideer ret umodne og har risiko for at møde showstoppere under i processen mod anvendelse.
As such many radical ideas are quite immature and has the risk of meeting showstoppers during their exploitation.
I år bestod komiteen for Radical Innovation Sprint af 14 medlemmer, der alle tilhører en eller flere af følgende grupper: Olie- og gasfagfolk, naboindustrifolk, forsker og/eller meget innovative mennesker.
This year the Radical Innovation Sprint committee consisted of 14 members all pertaining to one or more of the following groups: Oil and Gas Professionals, Neighbor Industry, Researcher and/or highly Innovative People.

Koncentrationen af mikroplast i vand og fisk fra Østersøen har været konstant de sidste 30 år, selvom produktionen af plast er steget kraftigt i samme periode.
The concentration of microplastics in water and fish from the Baltic Sea has been constant for the past 30 years, despite a substantial increase in plastic production during the same period.
Der fremstilles mere plastik på jorden end nogensinde før, og hvert år havner mellem 5 og 15 millioner tons plastik i verdenshavene.
More plastic is being produced globally than ever before, and between 5 and 15 million tonnes of plastic end up in the world's oceans each year.
Hidtil har man troet, at koncentrationen af mikroplast i såvel fisk som havvand var steget kraftigt i takt med stigningen i anvendelsen af plast, men den antagelse punkteres nu af det første langtidsstudie af mikroplast i havet.
It was assumed that the concentration of microplastics in fish and sea water had risen parallel to the increase in the production of plastic, but that assumption is not supported by the first long-term study of microplastics in the sea.
Bag studiet står forskere på DTU Aqua, Københavns Universitet og GEOMAR i Kiel, der har analyseret indholdet af mikroplast i fisk og vandprøver fra Østersøen, der er taget mellem 1987 og 2015.
The study-by researchers at DTU Aqua, the University of Copenhagen, and GEOMAR in Kiel-analysed the level of microplastics in fish and water samples from the Baltic Sea, taken between 1987 and 2015.
"Resultatet er overraskende.
"The result is surprising.
Der er den samme mængde plastik både i vandet og fiskene, når man går 30 år tilbage," siger professor Torkel Gissel Nielsen fra DTU Aqua.
There is the same amount of plastic in both the water and the fish when you go back 30 years," says Professor Torkel Gissel Nielsen from DTU Aqua.
Dette er første gang, man har undersøgt indholdet gennem en længere periode.
This is the first time levels have been studied over a longer period.
"Studiet rejser en række spørgsmål.
"The study raises a number of questions.
Vi ved, at der bliver produceret mere plastik i dag end nogensinde før.
We know that more plastic is produced today than ever before.
Findes der nogle organismer, der kan nedbryde den?
Are there organisms that can break it down?
I alt 814 sild og brisling er blevet undersøgt for indhold af mikroplast.
A total of 814 herring and sprat were examined for microplastics levels.

Hver femte fisk indeholdt mikroplast
One in five fish contained microplastics
De ældre vand- og fiskeprøver fra Østersøen stammer fra en tidsserie af prøver indsamlet af DTU Aqua og GEOMAR Kiel med det formål at undersøge Østersøens fødekæder.
The older water and fish samples from the Baltic Sea originate from a time series of samples collected by DTU Aqua and GEOMAR Kiel with the aim of investigating food chains in the Baltic Sea.
Det var den daværende specialestuderende på Biologisk Sektion på Københavns Universitet Sabrina Beer, der i samarbejde med DTU Aqua fik ideen til at undersøge de gamle prøver for mikroplast.
Sabrina Beer, a master student at the University of Copenhagen's Biological Section at the time, developed the idea together with DTU Aqua of studying the microplastics concentration in the old samples.
Hun har dissekeret i alt 814 fisk af arterne sild og brisling for at kvantificere indholdet af mikroplast i deres mave og tarm.
She dissected a total of 814 fish of the species herring and sprat, and quantifyed the levels of microplastics in the stomach and intestines.
Omkring hver femte fisk havde mikroplast i sig.
About one in five fish contained microplastics.
Ikke overvældende forekomst
Not overwhelmingly high levels
I én kubikmeter vand fra Østersøen fandt forskerne 0,3 mikroplastfibre (over 0,1 mm i størrelsen).
In one cubic metre of water from the Baltic Sea, researchers found 0.3 microplastic fibres (larger than 0.1 mm).
Et tal, der har været konstant gennem de sidste 30 år.
A figure that has been constant over the last 30 years.
"Der er stadig behov for øget fokus på mikroplast i havene.
"There remains a need for a greater focus on microplastics in our seas.
Vores studie lægger op til, at man undersøger flere aspekter af mikroplasts betydning og undersøger forekomsten af mikroplast fra luft til havbund", siger Sabrina Beer.
Our study paves the way for studying other aspects of the significance of microplastics, and levels of microplastics from the air to the seabed,” says Sabrina Beer.
Oliestoffer, bromerede flammehæmmere og ftalater kan binde sig til plastikken.
Oil chemicals, brominated flame retardants, and phthalates can bind to the plastic.
Selv om den globale produktion af plastik er steget voldsomt gennem de seneste 30 år, har koncentrationen af mikroplast i Østersøen og i Østersøens fisk været konstant i samme periode.
Even though the global production of plastic has increased dramatically over the past 30 years, the concentration of microplastics in water and fish from the Baltic Sea has been constant during this period.
