Zumeist sind Gründungen horizontal eben hergestellte Flächen, dessen Nachweis über die direkte Ermittlung der Dichte im Feld durch verschiedene Verfahren, wie z.B. Flüssigkeitsersatz-Verfahren, sichergestellt ist. Jedoch gibt es auch komplexe Körper im Erdbau, wie z.B. bei der Herstellung eines Rohrzwickelbereichs bei wassergeführten Leitungen, welche bisher nur mit indirekten Aufschlussverfahren nachgewiesen werden konnten. Aufgrund von Entwicklungen neuer Technologien zum Einbau von Rohrleitungen, könnte die Bettung zukünftig direkt in einer formgebenden Verdichtung stattfinden. Die Wirkung einer solchen Herstellung wird in ersten Zügen in dieser Arbeit untersucht. Dafür wird die Wirksamkeit eines Vibrationsverdichters zur formgebenden Verdichtung überprüft. Da es sich hierbei um die ersten Versuche mit dem Prototypen auf freier Arbeitsfläche handelt, müssen noch weitere Versuche mit Verbesserungen des Geräts vorgenommen werden. Um die Verdichtungswirkung des Vibrationsverdichters überprüfen zu können, wurde in dieser Arbeit ein optisches Messverfahren zur direkten Dichtebestimmung entwickelt, da dies über herkömmliche Methoden bei unregelmäßigen Körpern im Erdbau nicht möglich ist. Dafür wird eine gesicherte Arbeitsumgebung hergestellt und die Dichte mit einem handgeführten 3D-Scanner nachgewiesen. Die Versuche mit dem optischen Messverfahren haben im Vergleich zu den herkömmlichen Dichtebestimmungs-Methoden eine sehr hohe Genauigkeit aufgewiesen. Außerdem konnte der 3D-Scanner bei der Analyse von unregelmäßigen Erdkörpern überzeugen, weshalb es das Potential hat, eine reelle Ergänzung der Verfahren zur In-situ Dichtebestimmung zu werden, um die bestehende geotechnische Lücke zu schließen. Weiterführende Forschungen könnten sich mit einer verbesserten formgebenden Verdichtung und dessen Auswertung über das optische Messverfahren beschäftigen.:1 Überblick und Ziele 2 Ausgangslage 3 Stand der Technik 4 Auswahl und Umgang mit dem Probeboden 4.1 Klassifizierung 4.2 Möglichkeiten zum reproduzierbaren lockeren Einbau feuchter Bodenproben 4.3 Homogenitätsprüfung 4.4 Zusammenfassung der Materialkennwerte 5 Herkömmliche Verfahren zur Dichtebestimmung 5.1 Vergleich am Proctortopf 5.2 Probeneinbau 5.3 Dichte mit Setzungsmessung 5.4 Dichte bei definiertem Volumen 5.5 Wasserersatz-Verfahren 5.6 Gipsersatz-Verfahren 5.7 Zusammenfassung und Fazit 6 Dichtebestimmung mittels 3D-Scanner 6.1 3D-Scanner „Artec Leo“ 6.1.1 Funktionsweise und Genauigkeiten 6.2 Neue Möglichkeit zur Volumenbestimmung 7 Versuchsstand 7.1 Entwickelte Gegenstände zur Versuchsdurchführung 7.2 Probeneinbau 7.3 Verdichtung mittels Vibrationsverdichter 7.4 Zusammenfassung und Fazit 8 Auswertung 8.1 Vergleich der herkömmlichen Dichtebestimmungsverfahren 8.2 Vergleich des Dichtebestimmungsverfahrens mittels 3D-Scanner 8.3 Ergebnisse aus den Versuchen am Versuchsstand 8.4 Zusammenfassung und Fazit 9 Ergebnisbeurteilung und Ausblick

Inhalt Die Technologien des Rapid Prototypings erreichen eine immer größer werdende Marktdurchdringung und erweitern die Möglichkeiten von Ingenieuren und Spezialisten angrenzender Fachbereiche. Je nach Datenursprung werden Schnittstellen wie Step oder STL genutzt oder es sind Zwischenschritte erforderlich, um die Daten aus 3D Scannern oder bildgebenden Quellen (CT; MRT) weiter zu verarbeiten. Dabei gibt es Fehler und Ungenauigkeiten in der Datenkette, die analysiert hier werden sollen.

The purpose of this project was to construct a 3D scanner capable of scanning smaller objects and visualize them in a computer with satisfying accuracy. The goal was then to generate an STL file able to be 3D printed in an attempt at reverse engineering. Components, materials and tools were provided by KTH to the best of their ability and abudget of 1000 SEK was given to purchase components not available at KTH. The scanner was designed using Solid Edge and utilizes two stepper motors to scan objects. One motor is used to rotate a platform that the object is placed upon and the second stepper motor is used to move an elevator on which a distance sensor is mounted. By keeping track of the elevator’s height in conjunction with the rotation of the object, the distance measured by the sensor can be converted into a point in a Cartesian coordinate system. Several different methods were tested in order to see how results varied. Firstly, the density of scanned points was increased, meaning that the sensor returned values more often as the stepper motor was rotating. Secondly, multiple measurements were made for a single point to determine an average distance and in that way reduce noise and uncertainty. Placing a single laser sensor perpendicular to the object rotating plate proved to be the optimal arrangement in terms of accuracy with the limited budget provided for this project. The scans are very time consuming which makes it important to decide whether to prioritize speed or accuracy. / Syftet med detta projekt var att konstruera en 3D-scanner kapabel att scanna mindre objekt och visualisera dem i en dator med tillfredsställande resultat. Målet var sedan att generera en STL-fil som går att skriva ut i 3D-skrivare för att försöka använda sig av reverse engineering. Komponenter, material och verktyg försågs av KTH så gott det gick och en budget på 1000 kr var tillgänglig för att inhandla komponenter som inte fanns på KTH. Skannern designades med hjälp av Solid Edge och använder sig av två stegmotorer för att skanna object. En motor användes för att rotera den plattform som objektet placerades på och den andra stegmotorn användes för att flytta en hiss varpå en avståndssensor monterades. Genom att hålla koll på hissens höjd i kombination med rotationen av objektet kan avståndet som sensorn uppmäter konvertera still en punkt i det kartesiska koordinatsystemet. Ett flertal metoder testades för att undersöka hur resultaten varierade. För det första ökades densiteten av skannade punkter, det vill säga sensorn returnerade värden oftare än stegmotorn roterade. För det andra genomfördes ett flertal mätningar för varje enskild punkt för att bestämma ett medelavstånd och på så sätt minimera brus och osäkerhet. Att placera en enstaka lasersensor vinkelrätt mot objektroterande plattan visade sig vara det optimala arrangemanget för noggrannhet med den begränsade budgeten för det här projektet. Inskanningarna är väldigt tidskrävande vilket gör det viktigt att bestämma sig för att prioritera snabbhet eller noggrannhet.

A partir das dimensões dos indivíduos pode-se definir dimensionamentos adequados para os produtos e postos de trabalho, proporcionando segurança e conforto aos usuários. Com o avanço da tecnologia de digitalização de imagens (escaneamento) 3D, é possível tirar algumas medidas de maneira mais rápida e com a redução da presença do entrevistado durante o processo. No entanto, faltam estudos que avaliem estas tecnologias no Brasil, sendo necessária a realização de uma comparação das tecnologias e das respectivas precisões para que seu uso em pesquisas. Com o objetivo de oferecer métodos comparativos para escolha dos marcadores e equipamentos a serem utilizados em uma pesquisa antropométrica tridimensional da população brasileira, no presente estudo estão comparadas duas tecnologias de escaneamento: o sistema a laser WBX da empresa norte americana Cyberware e o sistema MHT da empresa russa Artec Group. O método para avaliação da precisão dimensional dos dados advindos desses equipamentos de digitalização de imagens 3D teve cinco etapas: Estudo dos processos de escaneamento; Escaneamento dos marcadores de pontos anatômicos; Escaneamento utilizando um corpo de prova cilíndrico; Escaneamento de um manequim; Escaneamento de um voluntário que teve seus pontos anatômicos marcados para a retirada de medidas. Foi feita uma comparação entre as medidas retiradas manualmente, por meio de antropômetro e virtualmente, com o auxílio do software de modelagem tridimensional Rhinoceros. Em relação aos resultados obtidos na avaliação do manequim e do voluntário, concluiu-se que a magnitude do erro absoluto é semelhante para ambos os scanners, e permanece constante independentemente das dimensões sob análise. As principais diferenças são em relação às funcionalidades dos equipamentos. / Only from the dimensions of individuals it is possible to define appropriate sizing for products and workplaces, providing security and comfort to users. With the evolution of 3D digital imaging technology (3D scanning), it is possible to take some measurements faster and reduce the need of the interviewee during the process. However, there are few studies that evaluate these technologies in Brazil. It is necessary to compare these equipments in order to know their precision so they can be used in researches. In order to choose anatomical markers and equipments, this study compares two different equipments: Cyberware WBX laser scanner and Artec Group MHT white light scanner. The method for assessing the dimensional accuracy of the data obtained from those scanning 3D imaging equipment had five steps: Study of the scanning processes; Scanning using a cylindrical object; Scanning a mannequin; Scanning a volunteer who had his anatomical points marked for taking measurements. The comparison was made between the measurements taken manually with an anthropometer and virtually using the 3D modeling software Rhinoceros. Based on results obtained in the evaluation of the mannequin and volunteer, it was concluded that the absolute error is similar for both scanners and remains constant regardless of the size under consideration. The main differences are the features of each equipment.
