1. 1. Predictive Energy Management of Long-Haul Hybrid Trucks : Using Quadratic Programming and Branch-and-Bound

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Erik Jonsson Holm; [2021]
   Keywords : Predictive energy management; quadratic programming; branch-and-bound; mixed-integer quadratic programming; energy optimization; look-ahead control; model predictive control; receding horizon control; optimal control; convex optimization; heavy-duty vehicle; long-haul truck; hybrid electric vehicle;

   Abstract : This thesis presents a predictive energy management controller for long-haul hybrid trucks. In a receding horizon control framework, the vehicle speed reference, battery energy reference, and engine on/off decision are optimized over a prediction horizon. READ MORE

3. 2. Formulation and Assessment of Hexamethylene-tetramine Filled Solid Fuel Grains

   University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

   Author : Mårten Schollin; [2021]
   Keywords : Hybrid rocket; solid fuel grain; hexamine; pot-life; tensile properties; Hybridraket; fast raketbränsle; hexamin; härdningstid; dragegenskaper;

   Abstract : Hybridraketer har inte sett så mycket användning som dess motsvarigheter som använder flytande eller fasta drivmedel. De främsta orsakerna kan förklaras med att hybridraketer historiskt sett haft lägre regressionshastighet och bränsletäthet. Inverkan av nackdelarna har dock minskat tack vare fortsatt forskning rörande hybridraketer. READ MORE

   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Electrification is one of the mega-trends in the transportation and automotive industry today. Boththe alarming environmental conditions and the ever decreasing fuel reserves are driving the shifttowards hybrid, all electric and alternative fuel source vehicles. READ MORE

5. 4. Examining framing effects on the decision-making processes of households in energy investments : An online experiment

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för samhällsstudier (SS)

   Author : Iryna Yefanova; [2019]
   Keywords : decision framing; investments; energy; CO2 emissions; household renovations;

   Abstract : With the increased energy demands which are needed to fuel the human development and economic growth we also observe a trend for global environmental problems caused by burning fossil fuels. Tackling problems like global warming would mean either tapping into the large CO2 emitters and having them shift to renewable energy alternatives or motivating change on the level of individuals which would lead to a general reduction in energy consumption.

6. 5. Organic Fillers for Solid Rocket Fuel

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Viktor Bladholm; [2018]
   Keywords : Hybrid rocket propellant; fuel formulation; organic fillers; hexamine; fluorene; anthracene; 1; 4-dicyanobenzene; Hybridraketer; bränsleformulering; organiska additiv; hexamin; fluoren; anthracen; 1; 4-dicyanobenzen;

   Abstract : Idag är de vanligaste använda raketerna flytande-bränsle- och fast-bränsle- raketer. Flytande-bränsle-raketer har fördelen att det kan manövreras men de har en komplex design och problem med förvaring. Fast-bränsle-raketer har en enkel design och kan förvaras men de har en miljöpåverkan och bränslet kan vara svårhanterligt. READ MORE
