  1. 11. Distribution of Pressure on Carton Board Packages : An Objective Analysis

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Andreas Ekberg; Marcus Strindlund; [2017]
    Keywords : Carton Board; Package; Tetra Pak; Distribution of Pressure; Grip Stiffness; Kartong; Förpackning; Tetra Pak; Tryckfördelning; Greppstyvhet;

    Abstract : Biomimetic tactile sensing was previously mostly performed in medical situations, such as when locating tumors in patients’ bodies. This thesis examined the effectiveness of using a biomimetic tactile sensory equipment for examining pressure distribution throughout carton board packages, made in two different carton board qualities.

  3. 12. Evaluation of Biological Hydrolysis Pre-treatment and the Biogas Potential of Sludge from Compact Waste Water Treatment

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Lina Falk; [2015]
    Keywords : biological sludge hydrolysis; biogas; biochemical methane potential tests; compact waste water treatment; drum filter; anaerobic digestion; microfiltration; environmental engineering; water engineering; avloppsteknik; vattenförsörjningsteknik; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Med anledning av de ökande utsläppskraven för avloppsreningsverk kommer ökade resurser i form av elektricitet och kemikalier att krävas om dagens teknologi ska användas även i fortsättningen. Följaktligen undersöks för tillfället mer effektiva metoder, vilka tillåter inte bara rening av avloppsvattnet utan även erbjuder en möjlighet att ta tillvara på de resurser som finns i avloppsvattnet.

  4. 13. Biomimetic trajectory tracking by means of event-based control

    University essay from KTH/Reglerteknik

    Author : Lorris Dola; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Flying insects are able to accomplish unprecedented flight by regulating their optic flow which is the velocty to which the environment scrolls in front of their eyes. This approach can be correlated to an event-based control where an event is generated according to the change of the environment. READ MORE

  5. 14. Multiscale mechanics and physics of nature’s dry adhesion systems

    University essay from Mekanik; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Nils Karlsson; [2012]
    Keywords : dry adhesion; detachment; thermal fluctuations; interaction potential; FEM;

    Abstract : Dry adhesion systems adhere via physical bonds without any significant contribution from a liquid medium. In nature, these systems are found among the footpads of spiders, lizards and many other small animals, with high adhesion force, low detachment force and elfcleaning properties. READ MORE

  6. 15. Geometry-dependence of the adhesive strength of biomimetic, micropatterned surfaces

    University essay from Mekanik

    Author : Emmanuel Ginebre; [2012]
    Keywords : Biomimetic; micro-patterned surface; adhesive surfaces; gecko;

    Abstract : Pressure sensitive adhesive surfaces are often inspired by nature. Miming the toe-surface of gecko, engineered surfaces made of thousands of micro-pillars show promising adhesive properties. This surfaces, covered with cylindrical pillars arranged into a pattern have adhesive properties greatly dependent on the geometrical characteristics. READ MORE
