Das Thixoforming nutzt bei der Formgebung besondere Materialeigenschaften zur Herstellung metallischer Bauteile. Die verwendeten Legierungen müssen dazu in den sogenannten teilflüssigen Bereich erwärmt werden. Das Einstellen des geforderten Fest-Flüssig-Verhältnisses stellt besondere Anforderungen an die Erwärmung. Betrachtet werden verschiedene Messverfahren, welche die Induktorspule bei der induktiven Erwärmung als Sensor nutzen.
 
Thixoforming uses specific material properties for shaping metal workpieces. For this purpose, the alloys need to be heated to the so-called semi-solid state. The adjustment of the desired semi-solid fraction imposes high requirements on the heating process. Various measurement principles, which use the inductor-coil as a sensor in inductive heating processes, are presented.

This report reviews the study of open heavy-flavour and quarkonium production in high-energy hadronic collisions, as tools to investigate fundamental aspects of Quantum Chromodynamics, from the proton and nucleus structure at high energy to deconfinement and the properties of the Quark–Gluon Plasma. Emphasis is given to the lessons learnt from LHC Run 1 results, which are reviewed in a global picture with the results from SPS and RHIC at lower energies, as well as to the questions to be addressed in the future. The report covers heavy flavour and quarkonium production in proton–proton, proton–nucleus and nucleus–nucleus collisions. This includes discussion of the effects of hot and cold strongly interacting matter, quarkonium photoproduction in nucleus–nucleus collisions and perspectives on the study of heavy flavour and quarkonium with upgrades of existing experiments and new experiments. The report results from the activity of the SaporeGravis network of the I3 Hadron Physics programme of the European Union 7 $\mathrm{th}$ Framework Programme.
