2. Dynamic axel load estimation for an electrified vehicle : Normalkraftestimering på drivaxeln
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknikAbstract : The brake system is critical for ensuring safe driving and has been the focus of development for many years. Pneumatic braking technology is commonly used in heavy vehicles,but it results in energy wastage and high service costs. Some countries mandate auxiliarybraking systems to assist in stopping the vehicle in addition to service brakes. READ MORE

4. Development of HVAC simulations for truck cabins using OpenFOAM
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningsläraAbstract : In regions with cold climates, a layer of ice often forms on vehicle windshields, whichobstructs the driver’s view. To address this issue, vehicles are equipped with internal defrosters. However, at Scania, the evaluation of defroster design performancecurrently relies on time-consuming and costly physical testing. READ MORE
