  1. 1. Analysis of Mutable Game Environments Built on a Tetrahedral Mesh : Tetras, a Potential Alternative to Voxels

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Noah Tell; [2023]
    Keywords : Voxels; Tetrahedron; Tetrahedral Mesh; Tetrahedralization; Tessellation; Mutable Environment; Editable Terrain; Deformable Environment; Boolean Operations; Real-Time; Computer Games; Computational Geometry; Voxlar; Tetrahedror; Tetrahedralisering; Tessellering; Formbar Terräng; Booliska Operationer; Realtid; Datorspel; Beräkningsgeometri;

    Abstract : Historically 3D game environments have almost always been immutable. Mutable environments are a technical challenge that will affect performance. For games of the future to continue approaching realism, mutable environments are an essential step. READ MORE

  3. 2. CFD Analysis of the Flow Around a Paraglider Wing

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Caterina Gennari; [2023]
    Keywords : Paraglider Wing; CFD; RANS; DES; Aerodynamics; Aerodynamic Hysteresis; FSI; Deformable Structure; Membrane; Shell Elements;

    Abstract : In this study, the characteristics of the flow around a paraglider wing were investigated through the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations by solving both Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations and Delayed Detached Eddy Simulations were employed. This allowed the observation of how the unique shape of the canopy of a paraglider can influence the behaviour of the flow and how aerodynamic hysteresis can manifest on this sort of wing. READ MORE

  4. 3. The Investigation and Modeling of the interaction between Paperboard Clippings in a Pipe Flow

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Lea Christierson; [2021]
    Keywords : Fluid-structure interaction; paperboard material modeling; transient pipe flow; overset mesh; image analysis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the manufacturing process of Tetra Pak packages, holes are cut out of the paperboard for straws and caps. The left-over paperboard clippings, called confetti, need to be evacu- ated from the machine. However, this evacuation process has proven to cause problems due to jams arising as the confetti get stuck in joints and along the pipe walls. READ MORE

  5. 4. Compression Characteristics of Elastomer Elements

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Rahul Nagaraj Dixit; [2021]
    Keywords : Continuum mechanics; Hyperelasticity; Mooney Rivlin; Rack and Pinion; Kontinuummekanik; Hyperelasticitet; Mooney Rivlin; Kuggstångsväxel;

    Abstract : Compression of elastomer elements are nonlinear due to the cross-linked molecular structure owing to a property known as hyperelasticity. Hyperelasticity is defined as the nonlinear stress-strain behavior shown by rubber like materials which can be strained up to a range of 700% in tension and up to 40% in compression. READ MORE

  6. 5. Foreland evolution of Blåisen, Norway, over the course of an ablation season

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Alexander Hamilton-Foyn; [2020]
    Keywords : Geomorphological Mapping; Structure from Motion; Glacial Landforms; Ice-Marginal Landforms; Landform Preservation; Hardangerjøkulen; Norway; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : This study presents a detailed investigation into the evolution of sedimentary landforms over an ablation season at Blåisen, an outlet of the Hardangerjøkulen Icecap, Norway. The two visits to Blåisen, one each side of the ablation season, allowed the preservation and evolution of the landforms to be studied. READ MORE
