  1. 1. Thermal Conversion of Cellulose-Lignin Precursors into Carbon Fibres

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella material

    Author : Sofia Westberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Carbon fiber; lignin; cellulose; continuous conversion;

    Abstract : Carbon fibres are used in many applications thanks to their exceptional tensile properties in relation to their relatively low weight. These thin strands of at least 90% carbon are mixed with a matrix such as epoxy to form composites used for cars, wind turbines, prosthetics, and many other things. READ MORE

  3. 2. Improved productivity : Innovative production methods for a redesigned boat hull

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

    Author : Elias Griffith; Ganwei Wang; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With the world shifting towards ever more sustainable practices and products, the maritime industry is expected to do the same. X Shore has found itself well-established in the new and niche industry of electric boats. READ MORE

  4. 3. Agile robotic arm for vertical applications - Evaluation, design and development

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Maskinelement

    Author : Rasmus Gren; [2023]
    Keywords : Robotic arm development; HKM; Kinematics; Product development; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Existing pick and place robots are either heavy or have a limited workspace for vertical operations. Since there is no robot today that are both light and have a good vertical workspace, this leads to a gap in the market. READ MORE

  5. 4. Characterisation of an Additively Manufactured Self-Sensing Material Using Carbon Fibre Sensors

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Alain Williamson; [2023]
    Keywords : Additive Manufacturing; Self-Sensing Material; Carbon Fibre Sensors; Structural Health Monitoring; Space Applications; 3D-Printed Continuous Carbon Fibre Filament; Strain Sensor; Mechanical Properties; Electromechanical Properties; Tensile Strength; Failure Strain; Base Resistance; Gauge Factor; Linearity; Systematic Literature Review; Material Selection; Mechanical Design; Material Development; Feasibility Study;

    Abstract : Increasing demand for structural health monitoring in space highlights the need to make the creation of these systems more accessible. This study investigates the potential of additive manufacturing to achieve this goal by characterizing a self-sensing material made of a commercially available 3D-printed continuous carbon fibre filament.

  6. 5. Incorporating Flax Fiber Composites in Hypercar Panels

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Hanna Öster; Sara Isorena Guðjónsdóttir; [2023]
    Keywords : sound transmission loss; coincidence frequency; sound pressure level; flax fibre; carbon fibre; ljudtransmission; koincidensfrekvens; ljudtrycksnivå; linfiber; kolfiber;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates sound transmission loss through flat finite panels using composite materials, which incorporate both carbon and flax fibres. The study wascarried out by performing FEM simulations developed and validated in steps. Thevalidation process was time-consuming but crucial in ensuring the model’s reliability. READ MORE
