  1. 1. Additive Manufacturing Applications for Wind Turbines

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Niklas Wahlström; Oscar Gabrielsson; [2017]
    Keywords : Additive Manufacturing; Wind Power Plant; Rotating Union; Additiv Tillverkning; Vindkraftverk; Roterskarv;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D-printing is an automated manufacturing process in which the component is built layer upon layer from a predefined 3D computer model. In contrast to conventional manufacturing processes where a vast volume of material is wasted due to machining, AM only uses the material that the component consists of. READ MORE

  2. 2. STUDY OF REQUIREMENTS FOR POST-CONSTRUCTION AUTOMATED BIRD MITIGATION SYSTEMS FROM STAKEHOLDER’S PERSPECTIVE

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Veaceslav Crasilşcic; [2016]
    Keywords : wind power; avifauna; collision risk; birds; raptors; golden eagles; white- tailed eagles; bird mitigation systems;

    Abstract : The expansion of wind power comes with additional risks for bird populations, one of which is the collision with wind turbine components, mainly the rotating blades. In order to mitigate this risk, few systems on the market propose solutions with modules that deter the birds from the wind turbine or trigger the temporary shutdown of the turbines. READ MORE

  3. 3. Design of a fluid rotaryjoint prototype

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Joakim Tänndal; [2014]
    Keywords : Rotary union; Rotary coupling; Flow loss; FRJ; RJ; Vätskeroterskarv; Vätskeroterstycke; Svivel; Roterstycke; Tryckförlust;

    Abstract : This thesis, which has been carried out at the department of research and development at Cobham Antenna Systems, comprises the development of a fluid rotary joint (FRJ) prototype and shall provide a thorough insight in relevant design aspects. Based on input parameters and objectives derived from an actual Cobham project, the possibility of manufacturing a fluid rotary joint in-house has been investigated. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Rotating-Presidency in a Post-Lisbon Environment: agenda-setter or agenda-manager?

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Megan Lynch; [2012-07-09]
    Keywords : Lisbon Treaty; negotiation; rotating-presidency; EU; international relations;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the impact of the Lisbon Treaty on the rotating-presidencies ability to pursue national preferences and examines the consequences of these changes on the potential evolution of the EU as a whole. By using a qualitative text analysis and conducting a literature review this thesis acknowledges the subjective nature of a policy environment where almost all of the data and records of negotiation are kept behind closed doors.

  5. 5. CFD Study of the Flow around a High-Speed Train

    University essay from KTH/Aerodynamik

    Author : Florian Guillou; [2012]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamic; slipstream; Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes model; k-ω SST model; aerodynamic; Aerodynamic Train Model; wake; high-speed train;

    Abstract : This document is a report summering the master thesis work dealing with the Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) study of the flow around a high-speed train. The model is a scaled 1:50 generic train with two cars, one inter-car gap and simplified bogies. READ MORE
