  1. 1. Trajectory Optimisation of a Spacecraft Swarm Maximising Gravitational Signal

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Rasmus Maråk; [2023]
    Keywords : Spacecraft Swarms; Trajectory Optimisation; Impulsive Manoeuvres; Evolutionary Algorithms; Polyhedral Gravity Model; Small Body Exploration; Discrete Spherical Grids; Svärmande rymdfarkoster; Banoptimering; Impulsiva manövrar; Evolutionära Algoritmer; Polyhedral gravitationsmodell; Utforksning av små kroppar i solsystemet; Diskreta sfäriska rutnät;

    Abstract : Proper modelling of the gravitational fields of irregularly shaped asteroids and comets is an essential yet challenging part of any spacecraft visit and flyby to these bodies. Accurate density representations provide crucial information for proximity missions, which rely heavily on it to design safe and efficient trajectories. READ MORE

    Keywords : pintle injector; optimisation; propulsion; liquid propellant;

    Abstract : Rocket propulsion is of vital importance for space travel. New innovations are continuously developed in order to facilitate the demand of the rapidly evolving space sector. Recently a focus on reusable rockets has appeared due to the economical and environmental benefits they bring. READ MORE

  4. 3. Utilisation of hardwood in cross-laminated timber - A numerical study on vibrations in floors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Johannes Jonasson; Olle Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : hardwood; birch; beech; clt; cross-laminated timber; vibrations; floors; footfall; accelerations; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product consisting of several layers of laminations bonded together with adhesives. In contrast to heavier construction materials, timber and other lightweight building materials are more prone to serviceability issues due to vibrations. READ MORE

  5. 4. Optimisation of a LOX/Ethanol rocket engine ignition

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

    Author : Pierre Collard; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : For more than half a century, humanity has achieved the feat of extracting itself from the earth's atmosphere and sailing into space, broadening the spectrum of knowledge and curiosity. Although space market seemed mastered and stable the arrival of new private players has reorganized the sector through new technological choices. READ MORE

  6. 5. Numerical study of a vibroacoustic wave trap for e-vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk akustik
