  1. 1. Carbon Craft

    University essay from Konstfack/Industridesign

    Author : Carl Cyrén; [2024]
    Keywords : Carbon fiber; glass; material research;

    Abstract : This is a practice-based design research project in the fields of glass blowing and knitting. It takes its starting point in trying to combine these two crafts with an experimental approach, using carbon fiber. READ MORE

  3. 2. Thermal Conversion of Cellulose-Lignin Precursors into Carbon Fibres

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella material

    Author : Sofia Westberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Carbon fiber; lignin; cellulose; continuous conversion;

    Abstract : Carbon fibres are used in many applications thanks to their exceptional tensile properties in relation to their relatively low weight. These thin strands of at least 90% carbon are mixed with a matrix such as epoxy to form composites used for cars, wind turbines, prosthetics, and many other things. READ MORE

  4. 3. Analysis of a shape morphing structural battery: manufacturing, analytical modeling and numerical simulation

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Alfredo Bici; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A reduction in the global use of fossil fuels is necessary when striving for a more sustainable future. One key strategy in the transition from fossil fuels is electrification. This strategy is particularly prominent within the transport sector, where more efficient ways to store electric energy are being pursued. READ MORE

  5. 4. Cable Shape Optimization - Drag Reduction of Cables Used in Marine Applications

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Simon Garpenquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind Tunnel Experiment; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Aerodynamic Forces; Drag Reduction; Shape Optimization; Flow around Cylinders; Yacht Racing;

    Abstract : It is important to understand the aerodynamic properties of tensioned cables (e.g. used in suspension bridges and yacht riggings), both for drag reduction and vibrational suppression purposes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Varnishing of Fiber-based Closures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Author : Nisha Sunil David; [2023]
    Keywords : Varnishing; fiber-based closures; water-based spray coating; packaging; repulpability ; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This research aims to investigate water-based varnishes and technologies to coat fiber-based closures to attain water barrier properties. To ensure recyclability the repulpability of coated and uncoated lids is tested. The research approach is exploratory. READ MORE
