  1. 1. Development of HVAC simulations for truck cabins using OpenFOAM

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Junaid Haider; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; OpenFOAM; Conjugate Heat Transfer; chtMultiRegionFoam;

    Abstract : In regions with cold climates, a layer of ice often forms on vehicle windshields, whichobstructs the driver’s view. To address this issue, vehicles are equipped with internal defrosters. However, at Scania, the evaluation of defroster design performancecurrently relies on time-consuming and costly physical testing. READ MORE

  3. 2. Development of a subject specific 3D knee finite element model to estimate the effect of weight loss on cartilage biomechanics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Julius Dahlgren; [2022]
    Keywords : biomechanics; knee; cartilage; subject-specific; finite element; FE; FEM; weight loss; osteoarthritis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common musculoskeletal disorder that degrades articular cartilage and is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Overweight has been considered a major risk factor of knee OA, and it is known that weight loss may reduce the risk of knee OA. READ MORE

  4. 3. Examination of a Damaged Slitting Knife using Scanning Electron Microscopy and Finite Element Simulations

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Love Öman; [2021]
    Keywords : slitting; slitting knives; damage; sem;

    Abstract : At voestalpine Precision Strip AB, the slitting process is used frequently. Slitting is a commonly applied manufacturing technique during sheet metal processing that aims to split large coils of sheet metal into narrower widths. READ MORE

  5. 4. Evaluation of bank erosion and stability analysis along Rönne å at Ängelholm, Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Arnold Mate Kalimukwa; Abuzack Juma Mohamed; [2021]
    Keywords : HEC-RAS; BSTEM; cross section; erosion; sediment transport; deposition; bank stability; safety factor; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis report presents the results of evaluation of bank erosion and stability analysis along Rönne å (river) at Ängelholm, located in south-west of Sweden within Scania. The main objectives cover building a hydrodynamic model, studying parameters that define sediment transport, modelling sediment transport within the river, mapping out erosive stretches and comparing to earlier observational study conducted by Norconsult in 2013, and finally conducting analysis of bank stability in most erosive stretches.

  6. 5. Performance of reinforced concrete bridges strengthened with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers : Case study: Essinge Bridge over Pampaslänken

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad; KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Zeinab Mirzahassanagha; Eva Malo; [2021]
    Keywords : CFRP; External Strengthening Method; RC Bridges; Curved Substrate; Finite Element Modelling; Kolfiberväv; Extern Förstärkningsmetod; Betongarmerade broar; Konkav yta; Finita Elementa Modellering;

    Abstract : This master thesis deals with the performance of existing reinforced concrete bridges strengthened with externally bonded carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP). One of the main aims of this work is to understand the functionality of such an external strengthening method applied to a concave surface in a heavy concrete structure such as a bridge. READ MORE
