  1. 6. Dispatch Optimization of the TES.POD Cluster using Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Models

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Ivar Wikander; [2023]
    Keywords : Optimization; Electricity dispatch; Mixed Integer Linear Programming; MILP; Solar PV; Microgrid; Energy Transition; Optimering; Solkraft; Linjär programmering; Elnät;

    Abstract : With increasing shares of variable renewable energy sources in the power mix, the need for energy storage solutions is projected to increase as well. Storage can in such combined systems help mitigate the issues with relying on intermittent sources by time-shifting the supply and smoothing out frequency fluctuations, to name some examples.

  3. 7. From Manual to Robotic -Assessing the Potential Benefits of Automation in Railway Inspections and Maintenance

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Trafik och väg

    Author : Benjamin Furberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Railway; Inspections; Maintenance; Robotics; Automation; Turnouts; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The railway industry plays a crucial role in the global freight transport and passenger mobility market, providing an efficient and low-emitting mode of transportation. However, to compete with other modes of transportation, the railway must improve its reliability. READ MORE

  4. 8. Condition monitoring of a linear rail and carriage system through vibration analysis

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

    Author : Johan Hultenheim; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Condition-based maintenance is a highly relevant topic as its implementation can save both components and man-hours. Downtime is often expensive in industrial environments because machines are expensive investments; often, the machines are also part of a larger production line where it is of great importance that no bottlenecks occur.

  5. 9. Determination of Proton Beam Waist Positions Using Beam Position Monitors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/European Spallation Source ESS AB; Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik

    Author : Gustav Gird Fahlström; [2022]
    Keywords : ESS; European Spallation Source; Proton beam; waist; BPM; Method; transverse; beam dynamics; beam physics; Lattice Error; Matrix formalism; Python; trajectory simulation; physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work, we examine a novel method for the determination of proton beam waist locations using beam position monitors. Based on the lattice of the final transport line section of the European Spallation Source linac, a simplified version of the beam line composed of quadrupole magnets and correctors is constructed in Python using a matrix formalism.

  6. 10. Automatic Irrigation System : Autonomously water flowers and plants

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

    Author : Benjamin Brandin; Kevin Jamsahar; [2022]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Cart; Microcontroller; Automatic irrigation system; Moisturesensor; Mekatronik; Vagn; Microcontroller; Automatisk bevattning system; Fuktighetssensor;

    Abstract : In connection with rising urbanization and more people deciding to live in cities the opportunity to cultivate plants decreases. Indoor gardening still tends to be a popular hobby. Because the flower and plants don’t get natural sunlight and water from rain, maintenance is required. READ MORE
