  1. 1. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
    Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

    Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

  3. 2. A Comparison of Convolutional Neural Networks used in Melanoma Detection : With transfer learning on the PAD-UFES-20 and ISIC datasets

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

    Author : Abdi Gobena; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine learning; Neural networks; Skin cancer; PAD-UFES-20; ISIC; Maskininlärning; Neuronnätverk; Hudcancer; PAD-UFES-20; ISIC;

    Abstract : Skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer, of which melanoma is the most lethal. Early detection is critical to long term survival rates. The use of machine learning to detect melanoma shows promising results in detecting malignant forms. READ MORE

  4. 3. PERFORMANCE OF THE PHOTODETECTOR FOR THE ACTIVE SHIELD OF THE COSI SPACE TELESCOPE

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Daniel Álvarez Franco; [2022]
    Keywords : Geant4; scintillation; BGO; CsI; simulation; COSI; telescope; photoelectric effect;

    Abstract : The COmpton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a space telescope that aims to study the soft gamma regime (0.2-5 MeV), capable of performing spectroscopy, imaging and polarimetry of cosmic gamma sources. READ MORE

  5. 4. Empirical Verification of an Acoustic Estimation of a Rocket Engine : A Comparison Between Estimated and Measured Noise of a Rocket Engine

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

    Author : Elina Arvidsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Esrange Space Centre; Flame deflector; Acoustic estimation; Liquid rocket engine; Rocket Factory Augsburg; Jet acoustics; Esrange Space Centre; Flammdeflektor; Akustisk estimering; vätskedriven raketmotor; Rocket Factory Augsburg; strömningsakustik;

    Abstract : The noise of a rocket engine is a complex and complicated phenomenon which has been studied for more than half a century [1]. There are many sources to this noise, but due to its great potential impact to the surrounding structures, including the vehicle itself, it is important to have a model to estimate the acoustic environment the engine produces.

  6. 5. Rotor Dynamic Modeling of Hydropower Rotors by 3D-Finite Element Analysis

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Simon Pääjärvi; [2022]
    Keywords : Rotordynamics; Applied Mechanics; Dynamics; Rotor; Finite Element Analysis; Hydropower; Solid Mechanics; Energy Production;

    Abstract : By using the rotor dynamic capabilities of Simcenter Nastran Rotordynamics, an eigenvalue analysis of 3D-finite element models of the Jeffcott rotor and the overhung rotor were conducted and compared to the results with beam-based, lumped parameter models. The first two critical speeds of the Jeffcott rotor were estimated with variations of 3. READ MORE
