  1. 1. Do viscous flows slip?

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaper

    Author : Björn Sjösvärd; [2023-12-21]
    Keywords : Mathematics; partial differential equations; multivectors; Hodge de-compositions; the Stokes equation; Hodge boun;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the Stokes equation is discussed and solved under different boundary conditions. The Stokes equation governs the flow of viscous liquids, for example honey or syrup. The first chapters in the thesis provides an introduction to multivector algebra and analysis, with the aim of presenting the concept of Hodge decompositions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Interaction for flexural column buckling : Analytical procedures compared with FE-simulations

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Noah Norberg; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This master's thesis presents a study on the stability of steel structures under flexural bucklingconstraints. The study focuses on the interaction and behaviour of flexural buckling formulas in SSEN-1993-1-1 and Swedish BSK and the performance of actual structural members subjected to suchconstraints.

  4. 3. Compact Digital Track Maps: Enhancing Train Traveller Information at the Crossing of Accuracy and Availability : A comparative analysis of algorithms for generating compact representations of railway tracks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Adam Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Train positioning; Digital track map; Digital map generation; Position measurement; Global navigation satellite system; Cartography; Tågpositionering; Digitala spårkartor; Generering av digitala kartor; Positionsmätning; Satellitnavigation; Kartograf;

    Abstract : Trains are constrained to the railway tracks they operate on. This can be leveraged for absolute train positioning, where a train’s position can be mapped onto a digital track map (DTM). Extensive research has been dedicated to enhancing the accuracy of DTMs. READ MORE

  5. 4. Real-time Optimal Braking for Marine Vessels with Rotating Thrusters

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Sigurlaug Rún Jónsdóttir; [2022]
    Keywords : Nonlinear optimization; nonlinear optimal control; numerical optimal control; real-time solution; optimal braking; receding horizon; modeling; ship model; propeller forces; rudder forces; direct multiple shooting method; discretization;

    Abstract : Collision avoidance is an essential component of autonomous shipping. As ships begin to advance towards autonomy, developing an advisory system is one of the first steps. An advisory system with a strong collision avoidance component can help the crew act more quickly and accurately in dangerous situations. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modelling of Corneal Surface - A Method for Reconstruction of Corneal Surface in a Wearable Eye Tracking Device

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Johanna Frost; [2022]
    Keywords : applied mathematics; modelling; optimization; regression; computer vision; tillämpad matematik; modellering; optimering; regression; datorseende;

    Abstract : We investigate a method for reconstructing the anterior corneal surface using wearable eye tracking devices. The presented method assumes that the four reflection points from two light sources viewed by two cameras lie on a locally spherical surface of a cornea. READ MORE
