1. Methods for including stiffness parameters from reduced finite element models in simulations of multibody systems
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fasta tillståndets elektronikAbstract : Two methods using lumped element (lumped parameter) methods to model flexible bodies have been presented. The methods are based on the concept of using a Guyan reduced stiffness matrix to describe the elasticity of a body. READ MORE

2. Rendering Of Physically Simulated Wires
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskapAbstract : Simulating deformable continious objects such as wires requires some discretization method. In this project we look at how to render simulated multiresolution lumped element wires in real time and the challenges that come with it. First we look how to create a 3D wire geometry on they from a set of constantly changing points. READ MORE

3. Automatic lumped element discretization of curved beams with variable sectional area
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysikAbstract : Calculations on stress, strain and deformation are typically made using finite element methods (FEM). An alternative to this is a rigid bodydynamics approach also called lumped element method (LEM). READ MORE

4. Modelling a piezoelectric-driven actuator for active flow control
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolanAbstract : Flow control is an area of research of particular interest within automotive and aerospace industries since methods used to affect the fluid flow around vehicles can reduce drag and therefore lower their fuel consumption. One of these methods, which has generated a lot of interest in later years, is called active flow control and uses different types of actuators to impact the surrounding flow. READ MORE

5. Thermal modelling of the Synchronous Reluctance Machine
University essay from KTH/Elektrisk energiomvandlingAbstract : In this paper two methods for thermally modelling the Synchronous Reluctance Machine (SynRM) have been developed and compared to measured data. The first is an analytical method for estimating the end winding temperature based on Brostr¨oms formula. Curve fitting to the measured data was done by Gauss-Newton estimation. READ MORE
