  1. 16. Dynamic axel load estimation for an electrified vehicle : Normalkraftestimering på drivaxeln

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Majd Barakat; [2023]
    Keywords : Vehicle dynamics; Suspension systems; Vehicle design; Bounce-Pitch model; Car quarter model; Normal force; Normal force estimation;

    Abstract : The brake system is critical for ensuring safe driving and has been the focus of development for many years. Pneumatic braking technology is commonly used in heavy vehicles,but it results in energy wastage and high service costs. Some countries mandate auxiliarybraking systems to assist in stopping the vehicle in addition to service brakes. READ MORE

  2. 17. Second Life Applications for Degraded EV Batteries : Evaluating Benefits Basedon Remaining Useful Life and Battery Configurations

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Sandberg Elis; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the potential of second-life electric vehicle batteries, which are no longer suitable for electro-mobility, to provide energy storage solutions. The study iden- tifies two potential applications for second-life batteries: charging stations and residential PV energy storage systems. READ MORE

  3. 18. Fitting a photospheric prompt emission model to GRB data: The Kompaneets RMS approximation (KRA)

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Oscar Wistemar; [2023]
    Keywords : Gamma-Ray Bursts; Astrophysics; Engineering Physics; Gamma-Blixtar; Astrofysik; Teknisk Fysik;

    Abstract : Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are some of the most energetic events in the universe. Shocks occurring below the photosphere are likely radiation mediated shocks (RMSs) and are suspected to shape the spectra. Due to computational costs of simulating RMSs, models had not been fitted to data and a faster model was needed. READ MORE

  4. 19. Dynamic Power Systems Modeling: Power Plant Types, Demand, and Environmental Impacts

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

    Author : Alexandra Papadopoulos; Linn Ekman; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : It is increasingly important to understand the dynamics of power systems. Most notably, thetransition towards renewable energy sources will radically change the way our power systemworks. A better understanding of the system dynamics is crucial to smoothly transitiontoward a sustainable system without undesirable side effects. READ MORE

  5. 20. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.
