4. 28. Development of protecting coatings for composites in an aero-engine

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Materialvetenskap

   Author : Julien Mertz; [2021]
   Keywords : composites; coatings; aerospace; aero-engine; lightning strike; fire; erosion;

   Abstract : Carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials exhibit high specificstrength and stiffness therefore they can be a lightweight alternative to metalliccomponents for the front section of an aero-engine. Despite the benefit of CFRP composite materials for aero-engine applications, there arealso new challenges due to their inherent properties compared to conventionalaerospace metallic structures, such as a lower erosion resistance, poor thermalresistance, and poor electrical conductivity.

5. 29. Three-dimensional modelling of the Källfallsgruvan iron oxide deposit, Riddarhyttan ore field, Bergslagen, Sweden: Integrating existing and new data to aid understanding of structural controls and mineral exploration

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Edna Spahic; [2021]
   Keywords : Three-dimensional modelling; Mineral exploration; Bergslagen; Riddarhyttan ore field; Källfallsgruvan iron-oxide deposit;

   Abstract : The Bergslagen ore province, located in the Fennoscandian shield in the south-central part of Sweden hosts several metallic mineral deposits, one of them being the Källfallsgruvan iron-oxide deposit in the Riddarhyttan ore field, situated in a high-strain shear belt denoted as the West Bergslagen Boundary Zone (WBBZ).  An accurate 3D geological model of the Källfallsgruvan iron-oxide deposit has been generated to aid understanding of the ore body geometries and calculating volume and tonnage.

6. 30. GVT-BDNet : Convolutional Neural Network with Global Voxel Transformer Operators for Building Damage Assessment

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

   Author : Leonardo Remondini; [2021]
   Keywords : Attention Operators; Convolutional Neural Networks CNNs ; Deep Learning; Building Damage Assessment; Generalizability; Global Voxel Transformer Operators GVTOs .; Attention Operators; Convolutional Neural Networks CNNs ; Deep Learning; Building Damage Assessment; Generalizability; Global Voxel Transformer Operators GVTOs .;

   Abstract : Natural disasters strike anywhere, disrupting local communication and transportation infrastructure, making the process of assessing specific local damage difficult, dangerous, and slow. The goal of Building Damage Assessment (BDA) is to quickly and accurately estimate the location, cause, and severity of the damage to maximize the efficiency of rescuers and saved lives. READ MORE
