  2. 17. NIO Horizon : Future autonomous flight experience

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Designhögskolan vid Umeå universitet

    Author : Tejas Purohit; [2019]
    Keywords : Future; mobility; autonomous; drone; interior; design; styling; transportation;

    Abstract : What if future air travel was highly sustainable and appealing? What if you could hop from building rooftop to rooftop or better, from a city to an island without the worries of ground congestion and gridlocks? And how would it look like if NIO decided to take this opportunity and broaden their product offerings? These were some of the initial question that guided the project towards a mode of mobility which is new and challenging to realise. Admittedly It was also exciting to imagine what would future of autonomy look like in something other that a car and to see if A. READ MORE

  3. 18. Fatigue Injection Moulded Short Fibre Reinforced Polymers

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära (Inst.)

    Author : Axel Eriksson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In order to keep up with the increasing demand of fuel-efficiency in the transportationindustry, the interest of making the vehicles as lightweight as possible is steadilyincreasing. One of the ways of reducing the weight is to introduce an anisotropicmaterial as Short Fibre Reinforced Polymers (SFRP) as a replacement for structuralparts made out of metals. READ MORE
