  1. 1. Design and implementation of an energy harvesting system in a prosthetic limb

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

    Author : Ódinn K. Rúnarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Energy harvesting; Prosthetic limbs; Supercapacitors; Printed circuit boards; 3D printing; Energiinsamling; Lemmproteser; Superkondensatorer; Tryckta kretskort; 3D Utskrivning; Orkuöflun; Gervilimir; Ofurþéttar; Prentaðar rafrásir; Þrívíddarprentun;

    Abstract : Energy Harvesting, also known as power harvesting or ambient power, is the process of obtaining small amounts of power from secondary sources, such as vibrations, light, temperature variations and even radio-frequency emissions. These systems have been uncommon in personal and wearable electronics in the past, however they are slowly gaining traction. READ MORE

  3. 2. Imaging of the MTP joint: Developing an imaging protocol optimised for damage detection and 3D modelling

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Johanna Jacobsson; [2022]
    Keywords : computed tomography; magnetic resonance imaging; cone beam computedtomography; cartilage; osteochondral lesions; metatarsal phalangeal joint; datortomografi; magnetisk resonanstomografi; kon-datortomografi; brosk; kondrala skador; metatarsalphalangen-leden;

    Abstract : Walking without pain in the toe has a significant impact on a person’s well-being. Human mobility will be impaired in osteoarthritis of the big toe, and pain will occur during walking. By replacing the cartilage or bone injury with an individualised implant, osteochondral injuries to the knee and ankle can be treated. READ MORE

  4. 3. How About Running on Mars ? Influence of Sensory Coherence on the Running Pattern and on Spatial Perception in Simulated Reduced Gravity

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Marie Keime; [2022]
    Keywords : Adaptation; Gravity; Locomotion; Sensory factors; Spatial perception; Unweighting.; Rörelse; Gravitation; Anpassning; Avvägning; Sensoriska faktorer; Rumslig uppfattning.;

    Abstract : Motor control, including locomotion, strongly depends on the gravitational field. Recent developments like lower-body positive pressure treadmills (LBPPTs) have enabled Earth- based studies on the effects of reduced body weight (BW) on walking and running. Yet, the observed adaptations to simulated hypogravity are not optimal. READ MORE

  5. 4. Does turbidity affect critical thermal maximum (CTM) of mussels : Behavioural changes in Unio tumidus under stress

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Ellinor Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : CTM; critical thermal maximum; turbidity; suspended solids; Unio tumidus; freshwater mussel; bivalve; climate change; Unionida; CTM; turbiditet; grumlighet; suspenderade ämnen; Unio tumidus; sötvattensmussla; musslor; klimatförändringar; Unionida;

    Abstract : Freshwater mussels is one the most endangered groups of organisms worldwide and stand in front of several threats. Global warming along with anthropogenic influence affect the mussel’s natural habitat and stress leads to changes in their behaviour. READ MORE

  6. 5. Development of Foot Design for Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Daniel Rundström; [2022]
    Keywords : Heat exchanger; bolted joints; product development; FEM.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the process of making the industry more energy efficient, the gasketed plate heat exchanger has an important role as it effectively transfers heat between fluids. This master thesis aims to investigate and develop a new supportive foot for Alfa Laval’s gasketed plate heat exchangers. READ MORE
