  1. 21. Hip impact of the FE-model THUMS : Model adaptation and validation followed by an evaluation of the KTH developed shock absorbing floor system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Author : Tua Beskow; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Abstract Fall accidents leads to an average of three deaths a day in Sweden. The high mortality and morbidity associated with falls among elderly is due to a high risk of falling caused by impaired mobility, sight and balance in combination with increased vulnerability as a result of fragile bones as well as comorbid conditions.

  3. 22. Short-Term Surface Velocity Changes During Summer in the Lower Part of the Ablation Area Using Differential GPS Survey, Storglaciären, Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : David Grenot; [2016]
    Keywords : DGPS; short-term ice velocity; infinitesimal strain; Storglaciären; ablation area; DGPS; korttidsvariationer i isflöde; deformation; Storglaciären; ablationsområde;

    Abstract : short time scale. Four differential GPS stations were installed in the lower ablation area of Storglaciären in Sweden for one week in August 2012. The position data over the period were then compared with the environment information including temperature, precipitation, known hydrology and topography. READ MORE

  4. 23. Modelling of ice throws from wind turbines

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Joakim Renström; [2015]
    Keywords : Ice throw; icing; wind turbines; balistic model; Iskast; nedisning; vindkraftverk; ballistisk modell;

    Abstract : As the wind energy sector expands into areas with colder climate, the problem with ice throw will increase. Due to a rotor diameter of more than 120 meters for a typical modern turbine with an effect of 3.3 MW, the separated ice fragment will get a high initial velocity, and therefore, they will also be thrown a long distance.

  5. 24. Robotic 3D friction stir welding : T-butt joint

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Avd för automationssystem

    Author : Cheng Zhang; [2015]
    Keywords : Friction stir welding; robotic friction stir welding; three-directional welds;

    Abstract : This Master Thesis was performed in terms of robotic three dimensional friction stir welding with T-butt joint. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid state welding method that achieves the weld temperature by friction of a rotating non-consumable tool with the workpiece. READ MORE

  6. 25. InP/Si Template for Photonic Application

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

    Author : Niklas Larsson; [2015]
    Keywords : CELOG; CMP; Chemlox; Citric Acid; Sodium Hypochlorite; InP; CELOG; CMP; Chemlox; Citronsyra; Natrium Hypoklorit; InP;

    Abstract : In this work an epitaxial layer of Indium Phosphide (InP) has been grown on top of a silicon substrate using the Corrugated Epitaxial Lateral Overgrowth (CELOG) technique. The grown InP CELOG top layer typically has a poor surface roughness and planarity. Before this surface can be used for any processing it has to be smooth and planarized. READ MORE
