  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

  2. 2. Computational study of the photophysical properties of two related photosensitizer proteins

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Benjamin Fégeant; [2023]
    Keywords : Photosensitizer proteins; QM MM; photophysics; molecular dynamics; computational protocol for protein preparation; Fotosensibiliserande proteiner; QM MM; fotofysik; molekylär dynamik; beräkningsprotokoll för förberedelser av proteiner;

    Abstract : Den ökande koldioxidhalten i atmosfären har lett till ett ökat intresse för användning av solljus, ett exempel är inom kemi. Att använda ljus i kemi kan leda till nya och intressanta kemiska reaktioner och kan tillämpas i användningsområden som exempelvis fotokatalys och fotovoltaik. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modelling of a Glued Bolt Joint in Finite Element

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Tove Boivie; [2023]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; finite element method; adhesive; bolt; hybrid joint; Hållfasthetslära; finita element metoden; lim; skurv; hybrid förband;

    Abstract : This report presents a master thesis project at KTH at the school of Engineering Science. The project is done in collaboration with ABB Robotics, a company who develops industrial robots. A robot consists of several parts and the last structural part is the wrist. READ MORE

  4. 4. Topology optimization: perimeter restriction using total variation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Jonas Fredriksson; [2022]
    Keywords : Topology optimization; structural optimization; solid mechanics; total variation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Topology optimization is a method used to find optimal material distributions, within a specified domain, with respect to some performance measure. To avoid various artifacts to appear in the suggested design, the solution space is typically restricted, where some restriction methods allow different length scales to be controlled in the design.

  5. 5. Adhesive bonding of fiber laminate patch to sandwich-structured composite

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Materialteknik

    Author : Daniel Nesic; [2022]
    Keywords : Adhesive bonding; Shipbuilding; Composite construction; Finite element method in structural mechanics; Fiber reinforced plastics; Optical microscopy analysis; Fractography; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : By using composites when constructing vehicles, lighter weight and thus better performance can be achieved. Composites are widely used in airplanes and small boats, but has yet to be incorporated in larger ships such as freighters and cruise ships. The main hindrance for its use is the lack of practical knowledge and experience. READ MORE
