  1. 1. Investigation of Antenna Radomes in Low Earth Orbits

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Mathias Manohar Gren; [2023]
    Keywords : Materials; Science; Space; Satellites; Antenna Radomes; Beyond Gravity; Coatings; Physics; Chemistry; Low Earth Orbits; Engineering; Lunds University; Materials Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Introduction: This master’s thesis focuses on exploring improved alternative material solutions for antenna radomes used to protect Beyond Gravity Sweden’s satellite antennas in low Earth orbits. Background: As the environment in low Earth orbit is harsh, surface materials on satellites experience high levels of atomic oxygen, ultra violet radiation, thermal-fluctuation, charged particles and micro meteoroids.

  3. 2. Water quality improvement of highway runoff by the filter material D-Rainclean : A five-month field trial

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : William Gulding; [2023]
    Keywords : Adsorption; D-Rainclean; metal removal; Reactive filter; stormwater treatment;

    Abstract : Highway runoff and its pollutants are of growing concern. These pollutants require treatment as their concentration often are increased. A common removal method is the use of sedimentation ponds that removes particulates through gravity. READ MORE

  4. 3. Improving Water Droplet Prediction for Vehicle Exterior Water Management: Insights from Experimental and Simulation Studies

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

    Author : Anton Labbé; Mahim Ahsan; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; Volume of Fluid; Kistler Correlation; Water Droplet; Wind Tunnel Measurement; Exterior Water Management.; Beräkningsfluidmekanik; Volume of Fluid; Kistler-korrelation; Vattendroppar; Vind Tunnel Experiment; Exteriört Vattenhantering.;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the study of water transportation on vehicle surfaces, which is crucial for ensuring the unobstructed operation of sensors and cameras in autonomous vehicles. The research aims to develop and validate experimental and simulation methods to enhance the understanding of water droplet behaviour and to create accurate models for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.

    Abstract : Bioinspired robots are becoming more and more common and getting inspired by the solutions found in nature to tackle problems is often useful. Regarding the swimming robots Ąeld of research, we can get inspiration from swimming snakes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Gravity water waves over constant vorticity flows: from laminar flows to touching waves

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); Lunds universitet/Matematikcentrum

    Author : Francisco Gonçalves Jorge Dias de Carvalho; [2023]
    Keywords : Partial differential equations; Water waves; Euler equations; Free boundary problem; Bifurcation theory; Nonlinear functional analysis; Hilbert transform; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : In a recent paper, Hur and Wheeler proved the existence of periodic steady water waves over an infinitely deep, two-dimensional and constant vorticity flow and subject to gravity whose profile overhangs, among which, waves whose surface touches at a point, enclosing a bubble of air. We take this further, proving the existence of a continuous curve of water waves from a laminar flow up to a touching wave for fixed non-zero gravity. READ MORE
