  1. 1. Sholder : A Motorized Automatic Shirt Folding Machine

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

    Author : Anton Stevanovic; Lucas Bergman; [2023]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Automatic Shirt Folding Machine; Automation; Servo Motors; Mekatronik; Automatisk Tröjvikarmaskin; Automatisering; Servomotorer;

    Abstract : In today’s fast-paced society, there is a high demand for faster and more effective ways of dealing with chores and other time-consuming activities, but while appliances like washing machines and dishwashers have become standard use, there has been limited progress in making the tedious task of folding clothes easier. This bachelor's thesis project in Mechatronics at KTH Royal Institute of Technology details the design, construction and performance of a motorized automatic shirt folding machine that can fold both T-shirts and long-sleeve shirts.

    Abstract : Due to the increase of rotor size in horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) during the past 25 years in order to achieve higher power output, all wind turbine components and blades in particular, have to withstand higher structural loads. This upscalingproblem could be solved by applying technologies capable of reducing aerodynamic loads the rotor has to withstand, either with passive or active control solutions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Effects of weaning and two separation strategies on cow-calf pairs kept together in an automatic milking system until calves were four months old

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Kajsa Bruhn; [2021]
    Keywords : cow; calf; separation; weaning; vocalization; activity; stress;

    Abstract : In the commercial dairy industry calves and cows are usually separated within 24 hours, however there is an increasing interest from the consumers to accommodate dairy cows and their calves together to improve animal welfare. Previous studies conclude that with later separation comes an increase in both calves and cows’ behavioral stress response after separation, however late separation has positive effects on the health and behavior of calves and cows.

  5. 4. Offset modeling of shell elements : A study in shell element modeling using Nastran

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : David Klarholm; [2016]
    Keywords : Offset shell elements; finite element; Nastran; shell element modeling; Rigid body connection; Rigid links; Kirchhoff shells; Multipoint constraint;

    Abstract : At Saab Aerostructures they are manufacturing a lot of parts for Airbus and Boeing. When these components are investigated using finite element analysis four-node Kirchhoff shell elements and a very fine mesh is often used. READ MORE

  6. 5. “Experimental Assessment of the Effectiveness of Active Flaps to Reduce the Blade Root Bending Moment of Wind Turbine Blades”

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Author : Adriano Sanchez Pena; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis intends to asses the application of local flow control to wind turbines blades, in order to demonstrate that the normal root benging moment on the blades can be reduced, with the aim of increasing wind turbines life span, reducing regular maintenance and further to make a contribution to current research on wind turbines. It develops the subject by first assessing the flow characteristics of the Großer Windkannal (GroWiKa) in the Hermann-Föttinger Institute (HFI) at the Technical University of Berlin and continues with establishing the effectiveness of local flow control on the Reasearch Wind Turbine (BeRT) designed by the institute.
