  2. 22. Stability Analysis during Active Tire Excitation for Friction Estimation

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Rudrendu Shekhar; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Road accidents have been a persistent cause of death worldwide, and claim millions of lives everyyear. Recent developments in the active safety systems like Electronic Stability Control (ESC) havehelped in reducing these numbers quite signicantly over the years. READ MORE

  3. 23. Validation of Test Equipment for Active Safety

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

    Author : Jesper Ekstener; [2017]
    Keywords : Technology; Teknik;

    Abstract : When testing active safety and Autonomous Emergency Brakes in vehicles many tests are done with a type of rig that simulates, for example, a pedestrian crossing the road in front of the vehicle. This thesis covers a validation of the accuracy of a new similar test-rig that has been developed by AstaZero, the company and test facility where this project took place. READ MORE

  4. 24. FE-Modelling and Material Characterization of Ice-Hockey Helmet

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Author : Isotta Rigoni; [2017]
    Keywords : traumatic brain injury; ice-hockey; helmet; finite element;

    Abstract : The aim of this research was to produce a reliable finite element model of a helmet, that could be used to simulate approval tests as well as impacts to investigate the safety offered. A 2D and 3D mesh was generated from the CAD file of an Easton Synergy 380 with HyperWorks, and then checked referring to standard parameter values. READ MORE

  5. 25. Dynamic Analysis of the Skyway Bridge : Assessment and Application of Design Guidelines

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Eric Thufvesson; Daniel Andersson; [2017]
    Keywords : finite element analysis; finite element modelling; footbridge; human induced vibrations; natural frequencies; mode shapes; parametric study; pedestrian bridge;

    Abstract : In recent years the design of pedestrian bridges has become more slender. As a result the bridges has lower natural frequencies and are more prone to excessive vibrations when subjected to dynamic loads induced by pedestrians. READ MORE
