  5. 19. The design of a hydraulic equalizer bar for the feeding mechanism on forest harvester heads

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Arvid Söderlund; [2023]
    Keywords : Harvester; Harvester head; Komatsu Forest; Hydraulics; Equalizer bar; Parallellstag; Stag; Skogsmaskin; Skördare; Aggregat; Skog;

    Abstract : Due to the importance of a correct tree placement and the wear that occurs to equalizer bars inharvester heads, Komatsu Forest AB in Umeå was interested if the bar could be replaced with ahydraulic system. According to Komatsu, the problems were that the equalizer bars that are responsible forsynchronizing the delimbing knives and feeding mechanism add weight, take up space and have atendency to break before their life expectancy.

  6. 20. Inkjet printed piezoelectric energy harvesters based on self-assembly of diphenylalanine peptide

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

    Author : Yujie Fu; [2023]
    Keywords : Inkjet printing; piezoelectric energy harvester; diphenylalanine peptide; self-assembly; Bläckstråleutskrift; piezoelektrisk energiskördare; difenylalaninpeptid; självmontering;

    Abstract : Diphenylalanine peptide (Phe-Phe or FF) is a very promising bio-material in the future wearable electronics application due to its self-assembly into nanotubes and nanoribbons with high shear piezoelectric coefficient which is comparable to traditional inorganic piezoelectric materials. In order to efficiently harvest piezoelectric response, alignment and unidirectional polarization of FF nanotubes are required. READ MORE
