  1. 1. Anomaly Detection in the EtherCAT Network of a Power Station : Improving a Graph Convolutional Neural Network Framework

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

    Author : Niklas Barth; [2023]
    Keywords : Unsupervised Learning; Multivariate Time Series; Graph Convolutional Neural Networks; Anomaly Detection; Industrial Control System; EtherCAT; Power Station; Electricity Grid;

    Abstract : In this thesis, an anomaly detection framework is assessed and fine-tuned to detect and explain anomalies in a power station, where EtherCAT, an Industrial Control System, is employed for monitoring. The chosen framework is based on a previously published Graph Neural Network (GNN) model, utilizing attention mechanisms to capture complex relationships between diverse measurements within the EtherCAT system.

  3. 2. Design, Modeling, and Testing of a Force Feedback Haptic Device for Simulated Robot Interaction

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Patrik Lindström; [2023]
    Keywords : Force Feedback; Impedance Control; PD-gain; Dynamic Behavior; Closed-chain; Master-Slave; Parallel Manipulator; Kinematics Redundancy; Mass-Spring-Damper; Position Control; Current Control; Modeling; Design; Joints; Delta robot; Differential Equations; External Torques; Kinematics; Forward Kinematics; Inverse Kinematics; Dynamic Matrices; Jacobian; URDF; Haptics; Haptic Device; Solidworks; CAD; Maxon Motors; EtherCAT; Beckhoff;

    Abstract : Haptic feedback is a growing phenomenon that incorporates the sense of touch through tactile sensations such as vibrations, electrical signals, air pressure, and sound waves or through force feedback, which employs torques and/or forces to replicate the pressure and weight of a simulated object. Utilizing haptic technology establishes a communication bridge between the user and the technical component, enhancing the user's understanding of the technical component's surroundings. READ MORE

  5. 4. Design and Calibration of Pneumatic Probes for Aerodynamic Testing

    University essay from KTH/Farkostteknik och Solidmekanik; KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Angelica Lejdeby; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : To develop turbomachines aerodynamic testing is an important part of the process. The performance testing this thesis will focus on is pressure measurements, which often is done using pneumatic probes. The pneumatic probes used in this project were a five-hole probe, a pitot probe and two different types of Kiel probes. READ MORE

  6. 5. EtherCAT based motion controller

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

    Author : Rohan Kelkar; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Motion control is the heart of today’s industrial automation. It’s everywhere right from a simple conveyor system to a complex 9 axis CNC machine or an industrial robot. Systems can be configured for either accurate positioning within tolerances of a few microns, speed of motion or torque. READ MORE
