1. 31. Modeling and Simulation of Elastic Rods with Intrinsic Curvature and Twist Immersed in Fluid

   University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

   Author : Babak Maboudi Afkham; [2014]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Understanding the dynamics of thin elastic rods that are immersed in fluid is fundamental in explaining many problems that arise in biology, physics and engineering. Solving the coupled system of rod-fluid in 3D is usually very costly, however in case of low Reynolds number, the three-dimensional problem can be reduced a one-dimensional problem on the centerline of the rod.

3. 32. A fibre-reinforced poroviscoelastic finite element model for the Achilles tendon

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Anna Gustafsson; [2014]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Tendons connect muscles to bone and consist of a complex structure of almost parallel collagen fibres embedded in a hydrated matrix. The mechanical behaviour of tendons is viscoelastic and highly non-linear. The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the body and it is essential for walking and jumping. READ MORE

4. 33. Design and Manufacturing of Pneumatic Test Stand for Rod-less Cylinder vertical application

   University essay from Fluida och mekatroniska system; Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Rocky A. Sabigoro; [2014]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Within LiU Fluid laboratory there had been a number of hydraulic and pneumatic test stands for research projects and teaching. The effort was needed to do more extension within the field of pneumatics. This thesis was about designing, manufacturing, building and testing the Test Stand for vertical application of pneumatic rodless cylinder. READ MORE

5. 34. Detection and tracking of overtaking vehicles

   University essay from Reglerteknik; Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Daniel Hultqvist; [2013]
   Keywords : vehicle detection; mono camera; optical flow; vehicle tracking; vehicle overtaking; vehicle cut-in;

   Abstract : The car has become bigger, faster and more advanced for each passing year since its first appearance, and the safety requirements have also become stricter. Computer vision based support is a growing area of safety features where the car is equipped with a mono- or stereo camera. READ MORE

6. 35. A Preliminary Design Tool For Radial Compressors

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Johannes Schiff; [2013]
   Keywords : radial compressor; centrifugal compressor; turbomachinery design tool; impeller; vaneless diffuser; vaned diffuser; wedge diffuser; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis has been to implement a computer program capable of modelling radial compressors. The work was conducted at the Division of Thermal Power Engineering, Department of Energy Sciences at the Faculty of Engineering, Lund University. With such a large field as radial compressors, some decomposition of the subject was necessary. READ MORE
