  1. 6. Simulating Long Neutron Beamlines Using Duct Source Variance Reduction in Geant4

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Isak Svensson; [2018]
    Keywords : Neutron beamlines; neutron shielding; high energy neutrons; variance reduction; Geant4; Monte Carlo simulation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source, ESS, is set to become the world's brightest spallation neutron source. Spallation neutron sources present unique challenges with regards to radiation shielding due to the creation of a significant number of high energy neutrons during nuclear reactions in the spallation target.

  3. 7. The impact on fuel costs when optimizing speed and weight in a single truck transportation system.

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik och samhälle

    Author : Tim Saxman; [2017]
    Keywords : Speed optimization; weight optimization; transportation system; green vehicle routing; vehicle routing problem; VRP; GVRP;

    Abstract : Traditionally, route planning in the transportation sector has only focused on minimizing the total distance driven when transporting goods or people. This is often done using software tools since planning the optimal route is a complex task that is hard to solve by hand. READ MORE

  4. 8. Occupant Detection System

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Bio- och miljösystemforskning (BLESS)

    Author : Frida Ohlson; Nadim Al-Mosawi; [2015]
    Keywords : Occupant; Detection; Camera analysis; Anthropometry; Human wieght; Human height;

    Abstract : The purpose of the ODS (Occupant Detection System) project is to develop a car safety camera system that is able to discriminate human occupants in order to activate safety features depending on the human size. In order to discriminate the size of an occupant anthropometric measurements need to be performed. READ MORE

  5. 9. Geant4 simulations of neutron flux using automated weight windows with applications to ESS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : John Stenander; [2015]
    Keywords : Geant4; Spallation sources; Weight windows; Variance reduction; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the use of two automated weight window methods for variance reduction of flux in particle transport simulations. The methods are implemented in the Geant4 simulation software. Both methods are based on pre-simulations, using flux or relative error information as input. READ MORE

  6. 10. Effect of side windows, stiffening plate and roof sheet on the stiffness of the bus body

    University essay from KTH/Medicinsk teknik

    Author : Josefina Falck; [2013]
    Keywords : bus; safety; strength;

    Abstract : As a bus developer, Scania focus to construct a safe vehicle for the passengers, i.e. high strength of the bus structure and good comfort, which is also profitable for the operator, i.e. READ MORE
