  1. 16. Development of Push Control Strategy for Diesel-Electric Powertrains

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Johannes Bodin; [2018]
    Keywords : diesel-electric powertrain; control strategy; push control; genset;

    Abstract : In diesel-electric powertrains, the wheels are mechanically decoupled from the internal combustion engine (ICE). The conventional control approach for such a powertrain is to let the driver control the traction motor while the ICE realizes speed control, causing power to be pulled through the powertrain.

  3. 17. Improvements to Thermal Management System for Automotive Components

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Tommy Enefalk; [2018]
    Keywords : Cooling; thermal management; energy efficiency; vehicle; automotive; Kylsystem; kylning; värmehantering; energieffektivisering; fordon;

    Abstract : Global warming imposes great challenges, and anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions have to be reduced by active measures. The transportation sector is one of the key sectors where significant reductions are desired. Within a vehicle, the cooling/thermal management system is a subsystem intended for temperature control of automotive components. READ MORE

  4. 18. Electricity demand analysis of a primary pump system in a district heating system

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Emil Deckner; Isabella Rambert; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This report provides data and an analysis within the framework of modeling and simulation of District Heating Systems (DHS) in China. Two students from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) performed this field study at Zhejiang University (ZJU), in the year of 2018. READ MORE

  5. 19. Structural effects on externally induced building vibrations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Alfred Johansson; [2018]
    Keywords : Building vibrations; Finite element method; structural dynamics; soil dynamics; structure-soil-structure interaction; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Much focus is being laid on vibrations in the building industry today. Many times these vibrations are externally induced and caused by placing buildings closer to existing sources, such as railways and roads, or new transportation systems closer to existing buildings. READ MORE

  6. 20. Post-tensioned stress ribbon systems in long-span roofs : Case study: Västerås Travel Center

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Samih Ahmed; Guayente Minchot; [2018]
    Keywords : cable suspended; stress ribbon; roof structure; post-tensioned concrete; SAP2000;

    Abstract : The stress ribbon system has numerous advantages, that includes but are not limitedto: increasing overall stiffness, control deflections and reduction of materialsconsumption, which in turn, reduces the load and the cost. Nevertheless, its use isusually limited to bridges, in particular, pedestrian bridges; this can be attributedto the insufficient space that buildings’ usually have for end supports, or/and backstayedcables, that can accommodate the expected high pull-out forces occuring atthe cables’ ends.
