  1. 1. Improvement of anautomatic networkdrawing algorithm in thecontext of utility networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Hyacinthe Ménard; [2024]
    Keywords : District Heating Network; Mathematical Optimization; Python; Fjärrvärme; Optimeringslära; Python;

    Abstract : The European Union’s ambitious climate targets necessitate substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, particularly within the heating and cooling sector, which accounts for a significant portion of energy consumption. District Heating and Cooling (DHC) systems emerge as a key solution for decarbonizing this sector by enabling high efficiency heat production and the integration of renewable and carbon-neutral energy sources.

  3. 2. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
    Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

    Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

  4. 3. Design of cooling-air permeable coil support

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Rozbeh Ghassemi; [2023]
    Keywords : Topology optimization; FEM-simulations; CFD-simulations; Material selection; Topologioptimering; FEM-simuleringar; CFD-simuleringar; Materialval;

    Abstract : Coil supports are integral load-bearing components employed in generators andmotors. They serve the purpose of preventing excessive deformation and maintaininga stable position of the coils responsible for generating power and magnetic fieldswhen rotating. READ MORE

  5. 4. Weight Optimization of Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine Blades constructed in Swedish Fossil Free Steel : With respect to fatigue life time

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Johannes Hall; Albin Larsson; [2023]
    Keywords : VAWT; Wind Turbine Blade; SSAB; Fossil-Free; Weight Optimization; Topology Optimization; Sizing Optimization; NACA 0018; STRENX 1300; Abaqus; Tosca Structure; VAWT; Vindturbinblad; SSAB; Fossilfritt; Viktoptimering; Topologioptimering; Size-Optimering; NACA 0018; STRENX 1300; Abaqus; Tosca Structure;

    Abstract : Wind turbines have been utilized for centuries to harness energy from the wind. Commercial wind turbine blades are typically made from composite materials, which are difficult to recycle, leading to blades ending up in landfills at the end of their lifecycle. Additionally, these materials contribute to microplastic pollution. READ MORE

  6. 5. Machine learning based Topology Optimization

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

    Author : Lina Wihrén; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine learning; Topology Optimization; Artificial neural networks; Micromobility vehicles; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to find a design suggestion for the chassis of a new micromobility vehicle developed by the company LEVTEK SWEDEN AB by using a multiple load, compliance based topology optimization. For this purpose, 9 static load cases are suggested, 4 of which have been derived from dynamic scenarios using an equivalent static load inspired approach based on free-body diagrams. READ MORE
