   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Ester Pörtfors; Malin Svärdling; [2024]
   Keywords : Mechanical CPR; Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation; LUCAS Chest Compression System; Test Equipment; Chest Biomechanics; Chest Stiffness; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The LUCAS Chest Compression System is a market leading mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation device, assisting medical professionals worldwide when treating patients with sudden cardiac arrest. The objective of this master thesis project was to develop a new, adjustable test equipment for the LUCAS device, allowing for tests on varying chest heights and stiffness levels. READ MORE

3. 2. Local traversability assessment in an unmanned ground vehicle : An analysis of mobility on the UGV Husky

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

   Author : Kidus Y. Getahun; [2023]
   Keywords : UGV; Husky; Robotics Operating System; Traversability Estimation; Vehicle Dynamics; Elevation Mapping; UGV; Husky; Framkomlighets Bedömning; Fordonsdynamik;

   Abstract : This thesis project aims to learn and understand more about implementing a path planner to the unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), UGV Husky, specifically its traversability algorithm, and investigate how it could be further improved. A surrounding grid is generated around the UGV where each cell contains information connected to its traversability. READ MORE

4. 3. Is there a benefit of super spikes in long jump performance?

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

   Author : Erik Svensson; [2023]
   Keywords : Long jump; long jump performance; AFT; super shoes; super spikes; carbon fiber plate; athletics; track field; jump; biomechanics; sprint; speed; force;

   Abstract : Background and aim The pace of development of distance running shoes has been fast-forward since 2016 when Nike introduced their model Nike Zoom Vaporfly, with an imbedded carbon fiber plate and an advanced newly developed Pebax®-foam. The shoe-development has continued to track events, with the introduction of carbon fiber plate in several shoe-models for running and sprint- events. READ MORE

5. 4. Streamlining 3D City Modeling for Urban Flow Simulations by Automatic Integration of Multisource Topography

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Klara Lindroth; [2023]
   Keywords : automatic 3D city models; surface reconstruction; geometry pre-processing; CFD; OSM height attributes;

   Abstract : In the workflow of computational fluid dynamics, geometry preparation is commonly the most time-consuming step. For a fast CFD simulation, automatic surface reconstruction to obtain 3D city models for a chosen area is essential. To address this need, a literature study was conducted to map available data suitable for 3D city models. READ MORE

6. 5. Applying spatially and temporally adaptive techniques for faster DEM-based snow simulation

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Simon Andreasson; Linus Östergaard; [2023]
   Keywords : Real-time simulation; DEM; GPU; Games; Computer graphics; Realtidssimulering; DEM; GPU; Spel; Datorgrafik;

   Abstract : Background. Physically-based snow simulation is computationally expensive and not yet applicable to real-time applications. Some of the prime factors for this cost are the complex physics, the large number of particles, and the small time step required for a high-quality and stable simulation. READ MORE
