2. Research and Analysis of Suspension Dynamics of an Autonomous Bidirectional Road Vehicle
University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesignAbstract : The bidirectionality of road vehicles is a novel research area, which is directly connected with autonomy, efficiency, flexibility and sustainability of transportation. The research in this area is mostly performed with stringent restrictions in corporate secrecy. This fact makes the area publicly unexplored, moreover highly future oriented. READ MORE

4. Active and semi-active suspensions for articulated vehicles to minimise tyre wear
University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesignAbstract : 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

5. Design and Qualification of a Gimbal Suspension for Attitude Control System Testing of CubeSats
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Since the dawn of the space race, satellites have grown rapidly in complexity and shrunk equally rapidly in size. Most of them contain an Attitude Determination and Control System (ADCS) on board for pointing and detumbling manoeuvres. READ MORE
