1. Data Driven Modeling for Aerodynamic Coefficients
University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistikAbstract : Accurately modeling aerodynamic forces and moments are crucial for understanding thebehavior of an aircraft when performing various maneuvers at different flight conditions.However, this task is challenging due to complex nonlinear dependencies on manydifferent parameters.

2. Extended Kalman Filter as Observer for a Hydrofoiling Watercraft : Modelling of a new hydrofoiling concept, based on the Spherical Inverted Pendulum Model
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Hydrofoiling in general has the potential to revolutionize watercraft in the future since it allows smoother and faster transport on water with less energy consumption than traditional planning hulls. Even if the concept of hydrofoiling has been around since the last century, development in control theory and material science together with increased computing power has led to a growing interest for the technology.

3. Torque-Based Load Estimation for Passenger Vehicles
University essay from Linköpings universitet/ReglerteknikAbstract : An accurate estimate of the mass of a passenger vehicle is important for several safety systems and environmental aspects. In this thesis, an algorithm for estimating the mass of a passenger vehicle using the recursive least squares methodis presented. READ MORE

4. Evaluation of drag estimation methods for ship hulls
University essay from KTH/MekanikAbstract : This study aims to evaluate to which degree CFD can complement traditional towing-tank experiments, and to develop a computationally cheap and robust methodology for these type of simulations. Two radically different surface ship hulls were chosen for the trials: a capesize bulk carrier and a fast displacement hull. READ MORE

5. Stability analysis of goal-oriented adaptivity for 2D incompressible flow problems
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : In this thesis, we present a computational study of the stability of time-dependent dual problem for incompressible flow with low viscosity in 2D. The dual problem measures the sensitivity of an output functional with respect to numerical errors and is a key part of goal-oriented a posteriori error estimation. READ MORE
