  1. 1. Aerodynamics simulations of Scania trucks using OpenFOAM

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Ziyi Liu; [2024]
    Keywords : Heavy-duty truck; Computational fluid dynamics; Air drag; OpenFOAM;

    Abstract : In the field of heavy-duty vehicles, fuel efficiency and environmental protection are factors that need to be focused on, while the aerodynamic drag generated during vehicle travelling is one of the most influential aspects. This thesis delves into the aerodynamic simulation of Scania trucks using the open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool, OpenFOAM v2206. READ MORE

  3. 2. A comparative performance analysis of Fast Fourier Transformation and Gerstner waves

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Morgan Westerberg; Oliver Olguin Jönsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Water simulation; Procedural methods; Ocean waves; Fast Fourier Transformation; Gerstner waves;

    Abstract : Background:  As time moves on hardware is able to tackle heavier and more complex computations in real-time systems. This means that more realistic and stylistic environments can be computed. One of these environments is the ocean. READ MORE

  4. 3. Comparative Analysis of the Inverse Kinematics of a 6-DOF Manipulator : A Comparative Study of Inverse Kinematics for the 6-DOF Saab Seaeye eM1-7 Manipulator with Non-Conventional Wrist Configuration

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Anton Larsson; Oskar Grönlund; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This report presents various methods for solving the inverse kinematic problem for a non-conventional robotic manipulator with 6 degrees of freedom and discusses their respective advantages and disadvantages. Numerical methods, such as gradient descent, Gauss-Newton and Levenberg-Marquardt as well as heuristic methods such as Cyclic Coordinate Descent and Forward and Backward Reaching Inverse Kinematics are discussed and presented, while the numerical methods are implemented and tested in simulation.

  5. 4. Modelling the full-scale N2O emissions from wastewater treatment plants for identifying mitigation strategies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Naga Deepika Peddamudium; [2023]
    Keywords : Modelling; simulation; ASM2dISS; N2O production pathways; N2O emission factor; mitigation strategies; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, which primarily originate from the biological nitrogen removal process, dominate the release of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). N2O production occurs through dynamic microbial pathways that have a significant impact on the environment compared with other GHG emissions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Reinforcement Learning for Hydrobatic AUVs

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

    Author : Grzegorz Woźniak; [2022]
    Keywords : Deep Reinforcement learning; Deep learning; Optimal control; Hydrobatics; Deep Reinforcement learning; Deep learning; Optimal control; Hydrobatics;

    Abstract : This master thesis focuses on developing a Reinforcement Learning (RL) controller to perform hydrobatic maneuvers on an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) successfully. This work also aims to analyze the robustness of the RL controller, as well as provide a comparison between RL algorithms and Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control. READ MORE
