4. 13. Lifting body design and CFD analysis of a novel long range pentacopter, the TILT LR drone

   University essay from KTH/Mekanik

   Author : Daniel Cagatay; Haoqian Yuan; [2016]
   Keywords : Lifting body; CFD; Mesh; Multi-rotor; Drone; Aerodynamic; Simulation;

   Abstract : In the thesis, a lifting body has been designed aiming to generate lift force for the pentacopter, called TILT LR (Long Range), at higher velocities during flights to improve the aerodynamic performances. The configuration, which is used as the skeleton of the long range drone for up to 75 kilometers flights, is based upon a tilting system allowing the rotors to rotate around their own axis in both pitch and roll angles.

5. 14. Opportunities for hybridization between two sympatric flounder (Platichthys flesus) ecotypes in the Baltic Sea

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Isa Wallin; [2016]
   Keywords : Flounder; ecology; hybridization; temperature; Baltic Sea;

   Abstract : The Baltic Sea flounder is separated into two ecotypes with different reproductive characteristics, one spawning off-shore at higher salinities and one spawning in coastal areas at lower salinities. However, coastal spawning flounder have also been found off-shore during the spawning season, especially in cold years, suggesting that the more stable temperatures in off-shore waters are more suitable for reproduction than in coastal areas during cold years.

6. 15. Wave transformation at a rock platform in Victoria, Australia - A study combining field measurements with numerical modelling

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Hanna Kowalczyk; [2016]
   Keywords : Wave dynamics; wave modelling; shore platform; rock coasts; EBED; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Even though a large part of the world's coastline consists of rocky shores, it is still a neglected field of study in coastal research. To increase the knowledge of wave transformation processes on these shores is important in order to understand erosional patterns and to manage coastal risks. READ MORE
