  3. 17. A Sensitivity Study of Some Numerical and Geometrical Parameters Affecting Lift

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Petter Ekman; [2014]
    Keywords : CFD; Mesh; Boundary layer; Prisms layer; Harpoon; Ansys Fluent; Vehicle aerodynamics;

    Abstract : Volvo Car Corporation (VCC) uses Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel during the aerodynamic development of new vehicles. In the past VCC main focus has been on the drag force correlation to the wind tunnel measurements but in recent years improved methods for lift force correlations has been highly wanted. READ MORE

  4. 18. Torque Characteristic Design Verification Method for Shift Quality Calibration

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Zhang Fan; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : På Volvo Cars Corporation (VCC), är vevaxelmoment styrsignal för kalibrering av växellådan under växling. Målet med detta examensarbete är att utforma en verifieringsmetod (DVM) för vevaxelns vridmoment. Baserat på hjulet vridmoment, beräknas vevaxel momentet genom att kompensera momentförluster steg för steg. READ MORE

  5. 19. DFMA : A Methodology Study and Method Development

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Olle Torkelsson; Markus Dauksz; [2014]
    Keywords : DFMA FMEA DFM DFA Lean Product Design Method Development;

    Abstract : Volvo Cars Corporation (VCC) is devoted to Lean and Six Sigma, and has lately considered an imple-mentation of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) with the purpose of improving their product design process and production. The goal for this project work is therefore to investigate if DFMA is a beneficial method for VCC to use, how DFMA can be used and suggest a DFMA method. READ MORE
