  1. 16. A pre-study for functional coatings evaluated on light metals to be applied on a new HPDC Mg-alloy : Investigating tribological and thermophysical properties, as-cast and coated

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Industriell produktutveckling, produktion och design

    Author : Louise Albo Zieme; Pontus Bergstedt; [2021]
    Keywords : reciprocating dry sliding wear test; thermophysical test; NiP-SiC; Ni-SiC; functional coatings; progressive scratch test; adhesion; magnesium alloy; aluminium alloy; hardness.;

    Abstract : Magnesium with two-thirds of the density compared to aluminium and one-quarter of steel, intrigues product developers and material scientists due to the light metal’s excellent combination of strength to weight ratio as well as their capability of being produced as a High Pressure Die Cast component compared to other ferrous or light metal alloys.   However, a magnesium alloy inherits some concerning drawbacks, limiting the exploitation in structural applications and mechanical design such as automotive, heavy machinery and aerospace components.

  3. 17. Fault Detection in Mobile Robotics using Autoencoder and Mahalanobis Distance

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Christian Mortensen; [2021]
    Keywords : Fault Detection; Anomaly Detection; Fault Isolation; Autoencoder; Mahalanobis Distance; Mobile Robotics; Mobile Robot; Robotics; Neural Network; ANN; Anomaly Score; ROS;

    Abstract : Intelligent fault detection systems using machine learning can be applied to learn to spot anomalies in signals sampled directly from machinery. As a result, expensive repair costs due to mechanical breakdowns and potential harm to humans due to malfunctioning equipment can be prevented. READ MORE

  4. 18. Horses vs. Machines: A Comparative Energy Analysis between Eighteenth Century- and Modern Copper Mining

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Humanekologi

    Author : Amos Strömberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Copper mining; embodied energy; small-scale mining; degrowth; copper ore grade; Podolinsky’s principle; large-scale mining; 18th century mining; mining; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This study shows the positive benefits of early 18th century copper mining in terms of energy efficiency due to the utilization of animate power, pre-industrial machinery, biofuels and a small-scale of organization. Based on the concept of embodied energy, this study calculates the inputs in early 18th century Falun Coppermine in Sweden and compares it with present-day Chibuluma Coppermine in Zambia. READ MORE

  5. 19. Energy-efficient Industrial processes : An investigation in the power consumption, power number, thrust force and torque requirement on a rotating bed reactor

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

    Author : Kasim Ali Haji; [2021]
    Keywords : RBR Simulation; CFD models of an RBR; Energy-efficient Industrial processes; Power number; Power consumption; RBR; rotating bed reactor; Experimental and simulation of an RBR; Empirical models of an RBR; Thrust force; Torque requirement; k-epsilon model of an RBR; SST k-omega model of an RBR.;

    Abstract : Rotating bed reactors are used throughout the process industry. They are usedboth in the chemical industry and other industrial sectors, such as pharmaceuticals and the textile industry in decolorization due to by-products or contaminants.SpinChem AB manufactures rotary bed reactors (RBRs) to perform chemical reactions between liquids and solids.

  6. 20. Steam Prediction at an Integrated Pulp and Paper Mill : Mondi Dynäs in Kramfors Municipality

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Energivetenskap

    Author : Jimmy Sehlberg; [2020]
    Keywords : Steam prediction; Prediction; Industrial prediction; ångprediktion;

    Abstract : The most important energy carrier at an integrated pulp and paper mill is steam, it is essential to power components and machinery. The components create variations in the steam grid network, variations that exceed the capacity of the steam accumulator. READ MORE
