  1. 1. Simulation model refinement for Steer and Brake by Wire System : From Simulation Model to Hardware in the Loop

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fluida och mekatroniska system

    Author : Jeff Risi; Chandan Veera; [2023]
    Keywords : Steer-by-Wire; Brake-by-Wire; Real Time model; Hardware-in-the-loop; Mining machine; Fluid Power; Hydraulics; FLUMES;

    Abstract : Simulation tools have progressed largely and in modern times they are commonly usedby engineers to design and simulate machines or part of machines before building and deploying them in the field. The field of Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) is gaining significant interest among companies as they strive to enhance product safety and reliability simul-taneously reducing testing costs and accelerated development speed.

  3. 2. Installation of cables for monitoring purposes in the ground by using Horizontal Directional Drilling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Eduardo Garcia Cañas; [2022]
    Keywords : HDD; Earth Embankment Dam; Resistivity; ERT; IP; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The median age for Swedish earth embankment dams is about 60 years. Due to its longevity, one of the major concerns is the internal erosion causing increased seepage through the dam, which ultimately may increases the risk for dam failure. To meet this challenge, there is a need for improved monitoring methods. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of Models and Optimisation Methods for Energy Minimisation of Drill Riggs

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Mohamed Faraj; Max Olsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Vehicle Propulsion Systems; Electrical powertrain; Modeling; Simulation; Deterministic dynamic programming; AMESim;

    Abstract : There are many benefits from using electrical powertrains over diesel powertrains within the mining industries, where some of these benefits come from reducing the pollution within the mines and therefore improve the working environment as well as reduce the ventilation costs required from ventilating these pollution. It is also desired to optimise the use of the vehicle to increase the efficiency and reduce fuel consumption of the vehicle. READ MORE

  5. 4. Digital twin of a safe system

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

    Author : Johan Edenhamn; [2022]
    Keywords : digital twin; safe system; hardware-in-the-loop HIL ; hydraulic model;

    Abstract : At Epiroc’s drill rigs a safe system is installed to make sure the vehicle is driven in a safe manner. In the development both machine tests and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) tests have been performed but when changes are made the firmware in the safe modules has to be updated. To speed up the process a digital twin would be beneficial. READ MORE

  6. 5. Analysis on how to estimate the number of holes a drill rig has completed based on its activity

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Elias Elfving; [2021]
    Keywords : frequency estimation; mining; drill rig; method analysis; machine learning;

    Abstract : Industrial processes have for a long time become more and more automated, this is no different in the mining industry. When excavating during mining operations special drill rigs are used to drill holes in the rock walls to be used for either explosives or bolts to support the structure. READ MORE
