  3. 27. Mechanical Reliability of Aged Lead-­Free Solders

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Susanne Lewin; [2012]
    Keywords : Solder Joints; Lead-free; Mechanical Reliability;

    Abstract : The usage of lead-­free solder joints in electronic packaging is of greatest concern to the electronic industry due to the health and environmental hazards arising with the use of lead. As a consequence, lead is legally prohibited in the European Union and the industry is aiming to produce lead-free products. READ MORE

  4. 28. Review of Displacement Mapping Techniques and Optimization

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Sektionen för datavetenskap och kommunikation

    Author : Mikael Lundgren; Ermin Hrkalovic; [2012]
    Keywords : displacement mapping techniques; normal mapping; parallax occlusion mapping; relief mapping; quadtree displacement mapping; 3D; software engineering;

    Abstract : This paper explores different bump mapping techniques and their implementation. Bump mapping is a technique that is used in computer games to make simple 3D objects look more detailed than what they really are. READ MORE

  5. 29. Numerical studies on receptivity and control of a three-dimensional boundary layer

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Author : Solmaz Akbaripour Sheijnai; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Receptivity in three-dimensional boundary layer ow to localized roughness elements over a at plate is studied by means of direct numerical simulations (DNS). The surface roughness is modeled by applying nonhomogeneous boundary conditions along the wall as well as considering as a surface deformation by inserting the bump shape into the numerical mesh.

  6. 30. Parametric study of bridge response to high speed trains, ballasted track on concrete bridges

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Shahbaz Rashid; [2011]
    Keywords : Ballast stiffness; transition zones; Railway bridges; the Swedish X2000 train; vertical deck acceleration; MATLAB-ABAQUS model; Finite element analysis.;

    Abstract : When a train enters a bridge, passenger sitting inside will feel a sudden bump in the track, which not only affect the riding comfort of the passengers but also put a dynamic impact on the bridge structure. Due to this impact force, we have very serious maintenance problems in the track close to the bridge structure. READ MORE
