  1. 1. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

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

    Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
    Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

    Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

  3. 2. Design of cooling-air permeable coil support

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Rozbeh Ghassemi; [2023]
    Keywords : Topology optimization; FEM-simulations; CFD-simulations; Material selection; Topologioptimering; FEM-simuleringar; CFD-simuleringar; Materialval;

    Abstract : Coil supports are integral load-bearing components employed in generators andmotors. They serve the purpose of preventing excessive deformation and maintaininga stable position of the coils responsible for generating power and magnetic fieldswhen rotating. READ MORE

  4. 3. A performance comparison between quadtree and tessellation LOD solutions for planetary terrain

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola

    Author : Julius Wendt; [2023]
    Keywords : level of detail; planetary; rendering; quadtree; tessellation;

    Abstract : Background. Rendering planets with high detail from orbit to surface level is becoming increasingly common in video games. In this thesis, two solutions to achieving this will be compared, a quadtree solution and a tessellation solution. These solutions both implement an adaptive level of detail on a spherical shape.

  5. 4. Fractal and entropy analysis of traditional and modernist building facades in street-level view : the case of Sweden’s growing cities

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Alexis Ken Cartajenas; [2023]
    Keywords : fractal dimension; information entropy; street-level view; building façade; preference matrix;

    Abstract : This study presents a quantitative analysis of traditional and modernist building facades in urban environments, focusing on the assessment of their complexity and coherence. Fractal and entropy analysis techniques were employed to objectively evaluate the differences between the two architectural styles within the preference matrix framework. READ MORE

  6. 5. An Investigation of How Hydrophobicity, Water, and Surface Topography Influence Macroscopic Particle Accumulation on Surfaces : A Case Study of Grass Accumulation on Robotic Lawn Mower

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Industriell produktutveckling, produktion och design

    Author : Rasmus Brask-Nilsen; Petter Ydrestrand; [2023]
    Keywords : Macroscopic Particles; Accumulation; Hydrophobicity; Humidity; Topology; Adhesion; Experiments; Design of Experiments; Grass; Robotic Lawn Mower;

    Abstract : This master's thesis project investigates the impact of hydrophobicity and topology on dry and wet macroscopic particle accumulation on surfaces. The report begins by outlining the challenges associated with this phenomenon and the existing theories and methods used to study it, including adhesion, surface engineering, the Lotus effect, and humidity.
