  1. 1. Learning a Grasp Prediction Model for Forestry Applications

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Elias Olofsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Forwarder; Autonomous grasping; Deep learning; Multibody dynamics; Convolutional neural network;

    Abstract : Since the advent of machine learning and machine vision methods, progress has been made in tackling the long-standing research question of autonomous grasping of arbitrary objects using robotic end-effectors. Building on these efforts, we focus on a subset of the general grasping problem concerning the automation of a forwarder. READ MORE

  2. 2. Deep reinforcement learning for automated building climate control

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Erik Snällfot; Martin Hörnberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Reinforcement Learning; Deep Learning; Deep Reinforcement Learning; Building Control; Control System;

    Abstract : The building sector is the single largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, making it a natural focal point for reducing energy consumption. More efficient use of energy is also becoming increasingly important for property managers as global energy prices are skyrocketing. READ MORE

  3. 3. DRIVER ENGAGEMENT User experience of static & dynamic interaction and engagement in Non-Driving Related Activities in Automated Vehicles - An experimental study

    University essay from Institutionen för tillämpad informationsteknologi

    Author : Elin Johansson; Sara Börjesson; [2023-05-19]
    Keywords : Non-Driving Related Activities; Take-over Request; SAE Level 4; Engagement; Situational Awareness; Self Assessment Manikin; The Contextual Control Model; Take-Over Scenario;

    Abstract : The rapid development of automation in vehicles is reshaping the role of the driver and consequently changing driver behavior. This study is based on the SAE level 4 of automation, i.e the autonomous vehicle (AV) can drive fully autonomously in a conditioned area. READ MORE

  5. 5. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.
