  3. 2. Measurement of mechanical vibrations : Measurement of ambient energy in the form of mechanical vibrations in transportation, storage and installment for the use of self-powered wireless sensor networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Oskar Nordström; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This project aims to explore the feasibility of using energy harvesting to create a self-powered sensor node that doesn't require batteries. The project was initiated by Ericsson, who identified a need to monitor their radio products during delivery to ensure they are not damaged by vibrations that exceed design specifications. READ MORE

  4. 3. Fire Risk and Hazard Analysis of Lithium-Ion Battery Technologies in Underground Facilities: A Literature Review

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Sean Meehan; [2022]

  5. 4. Extended Kalman Filter as Observer for a Hydrofoiling Watercraft : Modelling of a new hydrofoiling concept, based on the Spherical Inverted Pendulum Model

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

    Author : Adam Thålin; [2022]
    Keywords : Extended Kalman Filter; Hydrofoiling; Spherical Inverted Pendulum; Sensor Fusion; Simulink; Bärplan; Extended Kalman Filter; Farkostteknik; Inverterad Pendel; Sensorfusion; Sex frihetsgrader; Simulink;

    Abstract : Hydrofoiling in general has the potential to revolutionize watercraft in the future since it allows smoother and faster transport on water with less energy consumption than traditional planning hulls. Even if the concept of hydrofoiling has been around since the last century, development in control theory and material science together with increased computing power has led to a growing interest for the technology.

  6. 5. Synthesis and Investigation of Nitrile-Containing Polymers Inspired by Lignin

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Tobias Lindborg; [2022]
    Keywords : Lignin; Polymer; Renewable; Bioresource; Glass transition temperature; Nitrile; Polymer technology; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The lignin-inspired derivatives coniferyl aldehyde and sinapyl aldehyde were used to prepare nitrile-containing methacrylate monomers with the aim to synthesize bio-based polymers exhibiting high glass transition temperatures (Tgs). The aldehydes were initially transformed to the corresponding nitriles and then underwent methacrylation before being polymerised by free-radical polymerisation. READ MORE
