  2. 2. Practical evaluation of the viability of sensorsand algorithms to detect falling and burial by avalanche

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Justus Conradi; Patrik Tiainen; [2021]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Master thesis; fall detection; burial detection; avalanche; skiing; IMU; FSR; Mekatronik; mastersavhandling; fallavkänning; begravningsavkänning; lavin; skidåkning; IMU; FSR;

    Abstract : Avalanches kill on average 250 people per year. Fall detection algorithms have been used to detect many different types of falls. In this work, a robust humanoid test rigwas designed and built to investigate the use of proven threshold based fall detection algorithms during skiing. READ MORE

  3. 3. Slab and Powder-Snow avalanche animation on the GPU

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Fakulteten för datavetenskaper

    Author : Åleskog Jonthan; Cheh Daniel; [2021]
    Keywords : Avalanche; GPU; DEM; Real-time; Games; Lavin; GPU; DEM; Realtid; Spel;

    Abstract : Background: The video game industry has yet to achieve a physically-based real-time avalanche simulation because of the sheer complexity of modeling the behavior of snow avalanches. An avalanche is made out of snow, meaning it would require a snow simulation which itself already shows to be complex. READ MORE

  4. 4. Design of a UAV-based radio receiver for avalanche beacon detection using software defined radio and signal processing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och System

    Author : Richard Hedlund; [2019]
    Keywords : Signal processing; Software Defined Radio; Avalanche; Beacon; Antenna; SDR; DSP; Signalbehandling; Mjuvarudefinierad Radio; Lavin; Lavinsändare; Antenn; SDR; DSP;

    Abstract : A fully functional proof of concept radio receiver for detecting avalanche beacons atthe frequency 457 kHz was constructed in the work of this master thesis. The radioreceiver is intended to be mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV or drone)and used to aid the mountain rescue teams by reducing the rescue time in findingavalanche victims carrying a transmitting beacon.

  5. 5. Layers of Office

    University essay from KTH/Arkitektur

    Author : Hannah Östergren; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Some  projects  have  lower  status  than  others.  Designing  an  en-tire custom building is an architectural opportunity while interior projects in existing, generic structures, have a tendency to leave architects disappointed. Instead of designing the whole we must contend with the existing, making a seemingly decorative addition. READ MORE
