16. Enhancing the endurance of UAVs by the use of structural power composites: System-level study of a flying wing
University essay from KTH/LättkonstruktionerAbstract : This thesis studies the feasibility of integrating the novelStructural Battery (SB)[1] into the airframe of a UnmannedAerial Vehicle (UAV). The potential advantages in terms ofmass, range and endurance are studied.The aircraft performance is analysed using conventionalflight mechanics, modelled in Matlab and Xfoil. READ MORE

17. Development of protecting coatings for composites in an aero-engine
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : Carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials exhibit high specificstrength and stiffness therefore they can be a lightweight alternative to metalliccomponents for the front section of an aero-engine. Despite the benefit of CFRP composite materials for aero-engine applications, there arealso new challenges due to their inherent properties compared to conventionalaerospace metallic structures, such as a lower erosion resistance, poor thermalresistance, and poor electrical conductivity.

18. Performance of reinforced concrete bridges strengthened with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers : Case study: Essinge Bridge over Pampaslänken
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad; KTH/Jord- och bergmekanikAbstract : This master thesis deals with the performance of existing reinforced concrete bridges strengthened with externally bonded carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP). One of the main aims of this work is to understand the functionality of such an external strengthening method applied to a concave surface in a heavy concrete structure such as a bridge. READ MORE

19. The Impact of Insulation Materials on a Climate Declaration : A Study of a Swedish Preschool
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknikAbstract : To reach the net-zero carbon goal by 2045, the Swedish government want to push the building and construction sector to lower their greenhouse gas emissions. This push is performed by implementing a law requiring building developers to perform a climate declaration over greenhouse gas emissions, to receive a building’s final clearance. READ MORE

20. Energy efficient fibre composites recycling
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : In this project, an investigation will be performed about how to improve thermal properties of recycled composite material. First, a literature study was performed about the potential techniques to improve the heating efficiency of the composites. Heating techniques, fibres and possible fillers were investigated. READ MORE
