1. 21. A case study on Trucks’Crossmembers at Volvo Group

   University essay from KTH/Produktionsutveckling

   Author : Aman Sultania; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis aims at investigating the crossmember business within the context of Volvo Trucks, with a focus on identifying standardization opportunities and optimizing the supply chain for improved efficiency and cost savings. The objectives of this study include mapping commonalities in design, raw material grade, surface finish, and thickness across different trucks and brands. READ MORE

3. 22. Formability Evaluation

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

   Author : Charles Ower; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This project investigates the possibility of using material thickness measurements of pressed stainless steel (316L) and titanium (grade 1) sheet metal to evaluate material formabil- ity. The ultimate goal of this project is to replace the current subjective visual material formability evaluation with an objective method. READ MORE

4. 23. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
   Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

   Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

5. 24. Vacuum Chamber Adaptation for Low-Power Electric Propulsion Testing : Optimizing Anode Configuration and Electrical Interface for Hollow Cathode Testing, and Conceptualizing a Setup for Field Emission Electric Propulsion Testing

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

   Author : Therese Bäckström; [2023]
   Keywords : Electric Propulsion; Field Emission Electric Propulsion Testing; FEEP Testing; Thruster Testing; Heaterless Hollow Cathode Testing; HHCTesting; Cathode Testing; Anode Design; Anode Configuration; Electrical Interface; Elektrisk Framdrivning; Fältjonisationsframdrivningstestning; Framdrivningstestning; Värmelös Hålkatodstestning; Katodtestning; Anoddesign; Anodkonfiguration; Elektriskt Gränssnitt;

   Abstract : Electric Propulsion (EP) is widely acknowledged as a crucial technology for future space missions, offering significant propellant savings and enabling exploration of planetary missions with smaller spacecraft (s/c). For precise attitude control of these smaller spacecraft, Field Emission Electric Propulsion (FEEP) has emerged as a favorable option due to its exceptional thrust controllability. READ MORE

6. 25. PARAMETRIC STUDY FOR WALL-TO-WALL CONNECTION IN MIXED STEEL CONCRETE STRUCTURES

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Simone De Troia; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The objective of this thesis work is to study the connection between two Steel Concrete Structures (SCS) wall modules using embedded connection bars. The SCSs under investigation consist of two steel faceplates held together by tie bars, concrete is cast inside, and stress transmission between the concrete and the steel plates is provided by shear connectors as headed studs.
