  1. 11. Emergency Power for Wind Turbine Yaw System - Project initialization tool

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Vigan Spahiu; [2020]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The Yaw Power Backup System (YPBS) is a safety system that needs to be incorporated in the Wind Power Plant (WPP) in order to provide emergency power during a power outage. The YPBS enables the Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) to perform a yawing operation in extreme weather conditions. READ MORE

  3. 12. Fire Safety of Facades

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Bogdan-Grigore Branisteanu-Albulescu; [2019]
    Keywords : polystyrene; graphene; façade; pyrolysis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Façade fires are a big concern due to past incidents and the large number of victims encountered. Vertical flame spread mechanism specific to this type of fires is a complex phenomenon with parameters that are often difficult to be coupled. READ MORE

  4. 13. Evaluation of Strategies for the Integration of Building Information Modelling (BIM) with Simulation of Fires in Enclosures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Silvia Parra Diettes; [2019]
    Keywords : Building Information Modelling; Simulation of Fires; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Fire Dynamics Simulator; Thermal properties; Industry Foundation Classes; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the study of fluid flows for the analysis of phenomena by scenarios simulated in a computer-based environment. One of the most well-known CFD simulation packages in the fire safety field is Fire Dynamic Simulator (FDS). READ MORE

  5. 14. Wood, straw, clay and some rabbit skin… The evaluation of renewable based low-tech-high-knowledge housing solutions.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : György Ängelkott Bocz; [2018]
    Keywords : straw bale; natural building; modular; element based; housing; sustainability; Arts and Architecture; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : There is a clearly visible dichotomy in architectural sustainability approaches today. While there are several housing solutions available fulfilling sustainability criteria, most of these follow the high-tech industrial approach. In main-stream architecture these are often referred to as “green” or “sustainable” architecture. READ MORE

  6. 15. Welding Safety Equipment : Design of head protection for welding with a human-centred focus on ergonomics, usability and user experience
