  1. 6. MODELLING OF HEAT TRANSFER OF RAILWAY SWITCH HEATING

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

    Author : Siddharth Suresh Sumathi; [2023]
    Keywords : Conjugate Heat transfer analysis; transient analysis; CFD; insulation; measurement data uncertainties.; Konjugat Värmeöverföringsanalys; transientanalys; CFD; isolering; mätdata osäkerheter.;

    Abstract : Switches and crossings are vital components of the railway network. Obstacles to the smooth functioning of these components could result in delays and network traffic. Given the geographical location of Sweden, snow is one of the major obstacles for the switches. READ MORE

  3. 7. Numerical Modelling of a Packed Bed Thermal Energy Storage for Applications in a Carnot Battery : KTH Thesis Report

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

    Author : Gabriel Juul; [2023]
    Keywords : Thermal energy storage; Carnot battery; sand; packed bed; granular medium; porous medium; effective medium technique; effective thermal conductivity; paramedic study; 3D model; COMSOL; numerical modelling; Lagring av värmeenergi; Carnot-batteri; sand; packad bädd; granulärt medium; poröst medium; effektiv mediumteknik; effektiv värmeledningsförmåga; parametrisk studie; 3D-modell; COMSOL; numerisk modellering;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the heat transfer characteristics of a packed bed thermal energy storage device through the development of a 3D model in COMSOL Multiphysics. The model is based on a laboratory-scale device consisting of an aluminum box filled with sand, which acts as the thermal storage medium. READ MORE

  4. 8. Evaluation of load distribution on ballasted reinforced concrete railway trough bridges

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Alex Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Concrete; numerical analysis; trough bridge; railway bridge; finite element model; discrete element method; Betong; numeriskanalys; trågbro; tågbro; finita elementmetoden; diskreta elementmetoden;

    Abstract : A significant portion of the reinforced concrete railway bridges in Sweden are reaching their designed lifespan and are scheduled to be demolished and replaced in the upcoming years. To limit the econom-icand environmental impact related to the replacement of existing railway infrastructure, a comprehen-siveevaluation of their capacity is required with the aim of extending its lifespan.

  5. 9. Structural responses due to underwater detonations : Validation of explosion modelling methods using LS-DYNA

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : Gustav Blomgren; Ebba Carlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Underwater explosion; UNDEX; detonation; fluid structure interaction; FSI; SSA; S-ALE; shock-wave; explosive; PETN; explosive modelling; Sub-Sea Analysis; Structured ALE; Arbitrary Lagrangian Euler; Multi Material Arbitrary Lagrangian Euler; MMALE; LS-DYNA;

    Abstract : Modelling the full event of an underwater explosion (UNDEX) is complex and requires advanced modelling methods in order to achieve accurate responses. The process of an UNDEX includes a series of events that has to be considered. READ MORE

  6. 10. Foam Modelling for Child Restraint Systems

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Edwin seby Joshy; Alwin George; [2023]
    Keywords : foam modeling; LS-Dyna; Child seat; explicit analysis; drop test;

    Abstract : Computer simulation is an essential tool in the development process of childseats, particularly when it comes to ensuring the safety of child passengers.As awareness regarding child passenger safety continues to grow, the use ofsuitable materials in the development of child seats becomes increasinglycrucial.
