1. 1. Vehicle dynamics modelling of electromagnetic suspensions for MAGLEV applications

   University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

   Author : Léa Chatelais; [2024]
   Keywords : MAGLEV; Dynamics; Requirements; Suspension; Vehicle modeling; MATLAB; MAGLEV; Dynamisk; Fordran; Upphängning; Fordon modell; MATLAB;

   Abstract : MAGnetic LEVitation Guidance System (MAGLEV) technology was commercially introduced relatively recently in the guided transport field. It is based on removing the wheels and rails of classic railway systems and supporting and guiding the train with magnets and magnetic forces instead. READ MORE

3. 2. Dynamic axel load estimation for an electrified vehicle : Normalkraftestimering på drivaxeln

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

   Author : Majd Barakat; [2023]
   Keywords : Vehicle dynamics; Suspension systems; Vehicle design; Bounce-Pitch model; Car quarter model; Normal force; Normal force estimation;

   Abstract : The brake system is critical for ensuring safe driving and has been the focus of development for many years. Pneumatic braking technology is commonly used in heavy vehicles,but it results in energy wastage and high service costs. Some countries mandate auxiliarybraking systems to assist in stopping the vehicle in addition to service brakes. READ MORE

4. 3. Adaptive Cruise Control and Platooning With Tire Slip Awareness

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

   Author : Filip Henriksson; Gustaf Reimer; [2022]
   Keywords : Platooning; tire slip; car following; C-ACC; autonomous driving;

   Abstract : Platooning is a method where a chain of vehiclesdrive with small inter-vehicular distances. The many benefitsof autonomous platooning includes improved fuel economy,less congestion and safer transportation. To create a safe andfunctional platoon the operational software needs to be able tohandle various road surfaces without the risk of a crash. READ MORE

5. 4. Active and semi-active suspensions for articulated vehicles to minimise tyre wear

   University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

   Author : Haoran Zhang; [2021]
   Keywords : Articulated vehicle; tyre wear; quarter car model; semi-active and active suspension; Ledat fordon; däckslitage; kvartsbilsmodell; semiaktiv och aktiv fjädring;

   Abstract : Tyre wear is a vital problem in vehicles, especially in articulated vehicles because of their heavier axle loads. Tyre wear can not only do harm to vehicle dynamics but also cause tyre particle emissions. Therefore, solutions that can minimise tyre wear are where this thesis work focuses. READ MORE

6. 5. A Home Among the Gumtrees - Reimagining suburban Sydney for a hotter future

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

   Author : Athena Newman-Andrews; [2021]
   Keywords : heat; Sydney; climate change; suburban; housing; Australia; urban sprawl; Arts and Architecture;

   Abstract : This thesis started with a desire to delve into the impact that natural disasters have on small communities in an Australian context, how climate change exacerbates their effect, and the role that design can play in mitigating the impact on people and the natural environment. Initial research into bushfires, drought, floods, and heat landed this project in Western Sydney, in an area not far from where I grew up. READ MORE
