  1. 21. A Method for Reducing Ash Volume in Wall-Flow Diesel Particulate Filters : Water Injection as a Service Tool to Improve Fuel Consumption and Particulate Filter Service Life

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Maskinkonstruktion

    Author : John Allen; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In order to meet today’s environmental standards, diesel vehicles must capture the soot and ash emitted from the engine in what is known as a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The continual ash loading of this filter and subsequent exhaust backpressure, increase in fuel consumption, etc. is seen as an unavoidable expense. READ MORE

  2. 22. Solving inverse problems in thermal engineering using a surrogate model

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Sarra Fakhfakh; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Through either measured or computed experimental data, inverse problems aim to determine parameters not straightforwardly given by measure. An inverse problem results in an optimization problem that requires many simulations of the direct problem which computations can be costly. One approach is to replace the reference model by a reduced model. READ MORE

  3. 23. A collision framework for rigid and deformable body simulation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Medie- och Informationsteknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Rasmus Haapaoja; [2016]
    Keywords : collision detection; collision response; physically-based simulation;

    Abstract : This thesis describes methods for collision detection and collision response, implemented in a complete collision framework for both rigid and deformable bodies. The framework is intended to act as a base for new technologies regarding muscle and facial simulation for feature film production, at the visual effects studio MPC. READ MORE

  4. 24. Image Segmentation with Joint Regularization and Histogram Separation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : David Nilsson; [2015]
    Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : In this thesis optimization methods for image segmentation are studied. The common theme of all the methods is that we have a histogram model for appearance terms that we optimize jointly with smoothness. READ MORE

  5. 25. Evaluation of pixel based and object based classification methods for land cover mapping with high spatial resolution satellite imagery, in the Amazonas, Brazil

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Linnea Jonsson; [2015]
    Keywords : support vector machine; maximum likelihood; SPOT-5; classification; geography; physical geography; RBF-kernel; OBIA; multiresolution segmentation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In the state of Acre, Brazil, there is ongoing land use change, where inhabitants of this part of the Amazonian rainforest practice shifting agriculture. Practicing this type of agriculture is, according to the SKY Rainforest Rescue organization, damaging to forest ecosystems. READ MORE
