  1. 16. Attenuation of bending waves in cross-laminated timber panels by using constrained damping layer

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Träteknik

    Author : Konrad Boeske; [2021]
    Keywords : Wood technology; damping; CLT; acoustic; low frequencies; AkuTimber;

    Abstract : Multi-storey wooden buildings become more and more popular. As the new housing solutions are more accessible, acoustical inconveniences of wooden buildings become actual as never before. Wood, thanks to its high stiffness and low mass, allows to erect buildings at impressive pace, albeit cannot damp low frequency noises efficiently. READ MORE

  3. 17. Design of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle’s (AUV) Antenna System

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Chengzhuang Zhou; [2021]
    Keywords : AUV Antenna; Printed Dipole Antenna; Broadband Antenna; AUV antenna; Printed dipole antenna; Broadband antenna;

    Abstract : The ocean symbolizes mystery, passion, and power. However, most of the ocean, about 80 %, is unknown to humans. AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles) provide a platform where terrain mapping, the biodiversity, and the resource survey of the ocean become accessible. READ MORE

  4. 18. Comparison of intensified turbulence events in the Baltic Sea

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Linnéa Hallgren; [2021]
    Keywords : turbulence; upper ocean; ocean mixing; parameterization;

    Abstract : Turbulence is important since it affects the exchange of momentum, heat, and trace gases between the atmosphere and the ocean. However, measuring oceanic turbulence is not straightforward and that is why parameterizations that describe turbulence events are important. READ MORE

  5. 19. Simulating flow-noise for after-treatment systems

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Adam Sandström; [2020]
    Keywords : Flow-noise; CAA; DES; non-refelctive boundary conditions; stretched grid; Menter SST;

    Abstract : Modern silencers for heavy vehicle applications are designed to cancel out the sound generated by the effects of combustion and propagation of exhaust gases through the engine after-treatment system. The complex geometry within the compact silencer give rise to self generated (or flow-) noise that contribute to the total sound power radiated at the exhaust outlet. READ MORE

  6. 20. Evaluation of OSTE-hybrid materials for acoustophoresis applications

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Elin Forss; [2020]
    Keywords : Acoustophoresis; off-stoichiometry-thiol-enes; OSTE; microfluidics;

    Abstract : This project aimed at exploring new hybrid materials to be used for acoustophoresis applications. Acoustophoresis can be used to manipulate particles inside a microfluidic channel by creating ultrasound standing waves within the channel [1]. This can be used for cell separation [2] or trapping of particles [3]. READ MORE
