  1. 21. Flame retardant treated wood : An investigation into phytic acid and its ability to act as a flame retardant agent

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Mattias Ström; Herman Paulusson; [2023]
    Keywords : Flame-retardant; Phytic acid; Wood;

    Abstract : Flame-retardant coatings have been serving their purpose since the romans ruled Europe. These products have been developed through the years, by mixing and synthetizing solutions, which have resulted in effective, although questionable, products due to their impact on the environment and our health.

  2. 22. Route Planning of Battery Electric Heavy-Duty Commercial Vehicles : Using Contraction Hierarchies and Mixed Integer Programming

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Datalogi

    Author : Olle Delborg; Elias Insulander; [2023]
    Keywords : route planning; route optimization; contraction hierarchies; mixed integer programming; vehicle routing problem; electric trucks; electric vehicles; battery; openstreetmap; shortest path; Dijkstra;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses route planning of Battery Electric Heavy-Duty Commercial Vehicles to enhance the reliability of electric vehicle transport. Collaborating with Scania, a Swedish truck manufacturing company, the goal is to develop a pipeline that uses open source data from OpenStreetMap and performs a modified Contraction Hierarchy in order to create a graph that can be used as input to a modified Vehicle Routing Problem formulation using Mixed Integer Programming.

  3. 23. INDUCTIVE RAILWAY SWITCH POINT HEATING : Improved control algorithm and phase compensation analysis for an inductive turnout heating system, and comparison with a resistive heating system

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Erik Nordlund; [2023]
    Keywords : Inductive switch point heating; Turnout heating; railway turnout heating; Inductive heating;

    Abstract : Railway turnout heating is essential during the winter because snow and ice can hinder the movement of the switch. In Sweden, heating has traditionally been done using resistive heating wires mounted to the stock rail, but the technology is outdated and generally exhibits low efficiency and performance.

  4. 24. An Evaluation Study of Leak Testing Technologies for Watertight Plate Heat Exchangers : Fast and sustainable leak testing technology for high energy efficiency products

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för matematik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Fritjof Nilsson; Yanjun Peng; [2023]
    Keywords : Leak rate; Optimization; Pressure Decay; Vacuum Technology; Volume; Läckhastighet; Optimering; Tryckfall; Vakuum Teknologi; Volym;

    Abstract : Background: One part of manufacturing a Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) is to leak test them before delivery. Today, helium is used extensively in leak testing. How-ever, it is unsustainable to use helium in leak testing, because of its non-renewability and therefore becoming more and more expensive. Also, this technology is relatively complex. READ MORE

  5. 25. Evaluation of Application and Platform ContinuousDeployment Strategies and Tools over Edge Clusters

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : André Lundqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis was the investigation of using Cloud Native tools in an On-prem Edge Deployment. Edge Computing allows software with explicit demands on latency, data management and reliability to utilize Cloud Computing by moving the compute power to the location of need while leaving the management in the Cloud.
