1. Methods for determining focal point and delay for ultrasound arrays and multichannel electronics
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : High intensity focused ultrasound is a growing technique for tissue ablation, among other uses, and given its destructive capabilities, there is a need for control of where the energy is delivered. There exist a number of methods for focusing such ultrasound arrays, but these often assume prior knowledge of the impulse response, or require extensive full-system simulations. READ MORE

2. Numerical modeling of airflow on the cathode-side of a bipolar flow plate : How the formed geometry affects the pressure drop and flow distribution in a hydrogen fuel cell
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)Abstract : Climate change and rising temperatures is a well-known problem. To tackle global warming a transition from fossil fuels to renewable and reliable energy sources is necessary. Hydrogen, in fuel cells, is proposed to replace diesel and gasoline in the transport sector. READ MORE

3. Modeling of a ball contact with a coated plate
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : During tightening of a screw, the variation in friction will affect the force acting on the joint, especially when tightening using torque as a control parameter. So, it is crucial to have a proper understanding of the contact mechanism and friction in the screw head to joint and thread interfaces. READ MORE

4. FE Simulation of protective insulation of catalysts in exhaust after-treatment systems of trucks and buses : Investigation and characterization of catalytic converter support mat material for accurate modeling in finite element simulations
University essay fromAbstract : The increase of new and ever more stringent emission legislation has brought about with it a surge in the demand for more sustainable automotive solutions. This has particularly been the case for automobiles, including heavy-duty vehicles like trucks and buses, with internal combustion engines, which now require the design and manufacturing of more durable and reliable components.

5. Effects of Dynamic Modeling on the Path Planning of Simulated Autonomous Vehicles
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakultetenAbstract : The purpose of the thesis was to evaluate the robustness of the Hybrid A* algorithm in regards to the levels of dynamic vehicle modeling, vehicle parameters and driving velocity. The original scope of the thesis project was to alter vehicle and tire models but this was discovered to be out of the time limits of the thesis project. READ MORE
