  1. 1. Rock Wedge Stability Assessment : A Comparative Analysis of Limit Equilibrium and Discrete Element Methods

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Vilma Nordh; [2024]
    Keywords : Numerical modelling; wedge stability; 3DEC; UnWedge;

    Abstract : Rock wedge stability is a common concern in underground excavations. Since the wedge stability influences the support design, it is important to use a wedge stability analysis method that can capture factors like excavation geometry, joint parameters and properties, rock mass properties, rock cover, and stress field as accurately as possible.

  3. 2. Increasing the diodicity of ceramic Tesla valves by exploiting the design freedom of additive manufacturing : A study in design optimizations of Tesla valves for ceramic 3D printing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Udit Sharma; [2024]
    Keywords : additive; manufacturing; Tesla; valve; ceramic; 3D; printing;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis was conducted at Uppsala University and at Fraunhofer IKTS, Dresden. The thesis aims to study design optimizations for increasing the diodicity and thereby performance of a Tesla valve, a type of “no moving parts” (NMP) valve, through design freedoms offered by ceramic additive manufacturing.

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Dynamic simulation and 3D visualization of a floating tilted counter-rotating vertical axis offshore wind turbine

    University essay from

    Author : Lovisa Jonsson; Alexander Hedene; Klara Österling; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind turbine; Offshore; VAWT; CRVT; Simulation; Visualization; MATLAB; Dynamics;

    Abstract : The growing global demand for clean energy is critical, and wind power plays a crucial role in addressing this need. The increasing demand is driving advancements in the field of offshore wind power and one promising innovation is the counter-rotating vertical axis turbines (CRVT), specifically designed for floating wind power installations.

  6. 5. 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
