  1. 6. Analysis of combined response of railway bridge and track : A parametric finite element model of the bridge across Bryngeån

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Moa Nolinder; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : When designing a railway bridge it is common to consider and designthe bridge structure and the track structure separately. However, theyare connected and that interaction generates a combined response and aforce transfer between them. READ MORE

  2. 7. A City By No-One

    University essay from KTH/Arkitektur

    Author : Oscar Hultén; [2023]
    Keywords : urban environment interactivity algorithm;

    Abstract : This project is an exploration of methods for generating virtual urban environments, framed in an interactive first-person perspective allowing the user to navigate the architectural design space by walking through a city as it is being generated. The project is developed on a foundation of three primary concepts: 1) A spatial interpretation of parameter sets which are positioned in virtual space, 2) Distance-based interpolation of these parameter sets as a method to govern how the urban environments are generated at different points in space,3) The transformation and merging of basic square grids embedded in positioned parameter sets resulting in a composite grid which functions as the spatial framework of the urban environment.

  3. 8. Numerical analysis of a bearing strength in delaminated composite joint

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

    Author : Olavi Kukkonen; [2023]
    Keywords : Bearing strength; Single-lap shear; Delamination; Countersinking; Hole size;

    Abstract : Composite structures are commonly joined using adhesive or mechanical joints, withmechanical joints being preferred when components need to be removable for maintenancepurposes. However, the presence of mechanical joints introduces a discontinuity in theload path, which can serve as an initiation point for failure and needs to be taken intoaccount in the design of the joint.

  4. 9. Parameter study for an energy efficient suspension for a rail vehicle prototype

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Ludvig Danström; [2023]
    Keywords : Delsbo electric; Energy efficiency; Rail vehicle; Suspension system; Delsbo electric; energieffektivitet; fjärder- och dämparsystem; spårfordon;

    Abstract : The push for sustainability in all parts of our society has never been as big as it is currently. One project that aims to produce sustainable innovation in the railway industry is the Delsbo Electric competition where some of the world’s most energy efficient vehicles compete. READ MORE

  5. 10. A Feasibility Analysis of Natural Composite Alternatives in High Performance Sailing Vessels

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

    Author : Sabrina Smith; [2023]
    Keywords : F50 catamaran; sustainable materials; marine applications; flax laminates; mechanical testing; environmental analysis; weight distribution; yacht performance;

    Abstract : The construction of high-performance vessels like the F50 catamaran has traditionally prioritized advanced composite materials and performance-driven design. However, there is a growing need to incorporate sustainable materials and practices, with their performance in marine applications remaining relatively unknown. READ MORE
