  1. 1. Supporting Caring Touch : A toolkit for sensitizing soma designers through subtle disruptions

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

    Author : Christoffer Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Somaesthetic design; touch; care; design methods; research through design; Somaestheticdesign; beröring; omsorgsfullhet; designmetoder; forskning genom design;

    Abstract : Touch-based interactions have been of interest within interaction design, as they can communicate large quantities of information about materials, systems, and impact affective states. This dissertation outlines the process of developing a design method to aid designers in honing their somatic sensibilities to engage in interactions of caring touch through touch-based interactions and explorations.

  3. 2. Development of Test Methodology for Electromechanical Linear Actuators

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

    Author : Isak Linder; [2022]
    Keywords : Electromechanical; linear actuator; test methodology; test rig; rack and pinion; transport delay; latency; spring mass damper; load cell; load force; load unit; test unit; DUT; PID; PID control; control mechanics; cogging torque; torque; flex; stiffness; current saturation; torque control;

    Abstract : This master thesis aims to develop a test methodology for electromechanical linear actuators. A linear actuator acts as a linear motor, converting a power source to linear motion. The electromechanical linear actuator in this project has an electric motor as its power source and uses a rack and pinion system to transfer that power to linear motion. READ MORE

  4. 3. Honing in: A user interface concept for managing dynamicinformation flows

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Sandra Ingerhage; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As more intermittent, decentralized production and consumption sources are connected to power grids, new demands are put on operators in control rooms managing the grids. Managing the grids from a tele-operation perspective, operators are dependent on communication channels connecting them with the grids. READ MORE

  5. 4. Tribological evaluation of the contact between upper compression ring and cylinder liner with different surface coatings

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik

    Author : Pär Wassborg; [2016]
    Keywords : piston ring; cylinder liner; wear; friction; grey cast iron; titanium oxide; chromium oxide;

    Abstract : The constant pursuit in the automotive industry to increase the engines performance, new solutions are always developed and tested to reduce the friction and increase the efficiency in the engine. One component that contributes to friction losses is the piston ring pack where the top compression stands for up to 40 %. READ MORE

  6. 5. The impact of honing process parameters on the surface quality of cylinder liners

    University essay from KTH/Industriell produktion

    Author : Sofia Edberg; Erik Landqvist; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : During recent years, legislation regarding emissions and fuel consumption levels for the automotive industry has become increasingly comprehensive. In order for automotive manufacturers to reach the demands, engine friction needs to be reduced. READ MORE
