  3. 22. Numerical Simulation of Sabot Discard Projectile

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

    Author : Karl Karlsson; [2020]
    Keywords : CFD; Sabot; Simulation; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : When designing an armour piercing kinetic energy projectile with a discarding sabot, it is important to know how the projectile is affected by the sabot during the discard. If the projectile has no active guiding systems, small disturbances to the initial flight path of the projectile can result in a significant deviance from its intended target. READ MORE

  4. 23. Investigate the track gauge widening on the Iron-ore line and suggest maintenance limits

    University essay from KTH/Spårfordon

    Author : Jesper Flodin; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Iron ore export remains a major player in the Swedish economy to date, with 90% of all iron ore produced in Europe stemming from the relatively small northern country. A large amount of this ore is transported from the mines to harbours for world-wide freight on railways. READ MORE

  5. 24. Coarse-Graining Fields in Particle-Based Soil Models

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Björn Ahlman; [2020]
    Keywords : Soil mechanics; Soil compaction; Continuum mechanics; Discrete Element Method; Coarse graining; Computational physics;

    Abstract : In soil, where trees and crops grow, heavy vehicles shear and compact the soil, leading to reduced plant growth and diminished nutrient recycling. Computer simulations offer the possibility to improve the understanding of these undesired phenomena. READ MORE
