  1. 1. Method Development & Analysis of Seals using FEM

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion

    Author : Lovisa Svanborg Östlin; [2023]
    Keywords : FEM; guidelines; hyperelastic materials; hyperelastic material models; method development; seals; FEM; riktlinjer; hyperelastiska material; hyperelastiska materialmodeller; metodutveckling; tätningar;

    Abstract : Hyperelasticity is a significant property of rubber, taken advantage of in engineering applications. A common application is the use of seals to prevent fluid transfer (liquid or gas) between solid regions. Volvo CE is often depending on external supplier when developing seals. READ MORE

  3. 2. Developments Towards High-Resolution Muonic Atom X-ray Spectroscopy of Low-Z Elements : For precision measurements of absolute nuclear charge radii

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Benjamin Verbeek; [2023]
    Keywords : muon physics; subatomic physics; charge radius; nucleus; lithium; silicon drift detector; microcalorimeter;

    Abstract : This Master's thesis investigates a method to measure atomic nuclei with record precision using muonic atom X-ray spectroscopy. In particular, 6Li is measured experimentally. The method used is independent from the previous most precise measurement of the 6Li nuclear charge radius which uses electron scattering. READ MORE

  4. 3. Joinpoint regression analysis of the COVID-19 epidemic curve in Sweden : A descriptive trend analysis of the different regions in Sweden

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Statistik och maskininlärning

    Author : Sebastian Bergwall; Duc Tran; [2023]
    Keywords : COVID-19; time series; descriptive analysis; grid search; joinpoint regression;

    Abstract : Since the beginning of the global outbreak, the Swedish Public Health Agency has been closely monitoring the situation regarding COVID-19. Understanding and mapping the behaviour of the COVID-19 epidemic curve in Sweden is of great interest and conducting a descriptive analysis may yield additional important insights. READ MORE

  5. 4. Improving term structure measurements by incorporating steps in a multiple yield curve framework

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Produktionsekonomi

    Author : Gustav Villwock; Clara Rydholm; [2022]
    Keywords : Finance; Interest rates; Term structure measurement; Monte Carlo; Financial mathematics; Yield curve; Policy rates; Multiple yield curve framework; Stochastic programming; Risk factor modeling; Hedging; Performance attribution; Principle component analysis; GARCH; Maximum likelihood estimation; Copula;

    Abstract : By issuing interest rate derivative contracts, market makers such as large banks are exposed to undesired risk. There are several methods for banks to hedge themselves against this type of risk; one such method is the stochastic programming model developed by Blomvall and Hagenbjörk (2022). READ MORE

  6. 5. Validation of An Iteration Free Material Model for Paperboard (NEO)

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

    Author : Samuel Thomas Staines; [2022]
    Keywords : Paperboard; orthotropic; Constitutive equilibrium free; Non-linear; Curve fit constitutive relation; switch-wise history dependence; total formulation; explicit constitutive relation; In-plane; Elastic-plastic; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The NEO model, developed by Lindström (2019) for paperboard, is a non-linear material model that utilizes empirically based constitutive relations with switches to mimic elastic-plastic responses. Due to the explicit definition of the constitutive relations, the NEO model does not require a constitutive equilibrium loop. READ MORE
