  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

    Abstract : A forwarder named XT28 has been developed in joint collaboration between eXtractor AB, Skogforsk AB, KTH, Linköpings Unversity, Sveaskog, and Bosch Rexroth. The forwarder is equipped with six hydraulic active suspension pendulum arms. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Comfort of children in cycle carriers

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign
