  1. 1. Vehicle dynamics modelling of electromagnetic suspensions for MAGLEV applications

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

    Author : Léa Chatelais; [2024]
    Keywords : MAGLEV; Dynamics; Requirements; Suspension; Vehicle modeling; MATLAB; MAGLEV; Dynamisk; Fordran; Upphängning; Fordon modell; MATLAB;

    Abstract : MAGnetic LEVitation Guidance System (MAGLEV) technology was commercially introduced relatively recently in the guided transport field. It is based on removing the wheels and rails of classic railway systems and supporting and guiding the train with magnets and magnetic forces instead. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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. 3. Human-Multi-Drone Interaction in Search and Rescue Systems under High Cognitive Workload

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Johanna Ahlskog; [2024]
    Keywords : Unmanned aerial vehicle; human-drone interaction; cognitive workload; trust; search and rescue; drone swarm; situational awareness; multi-drone systems;

    Abstract : Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), often referred to as drones, have seen increased use in search and rescue (SAR) missions. Traditionally, these missions involve manual control of each drone for aerial surveillance. READ MORE

  4. 4. End User Study of an Engineering Design Tool

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Ina Johnson; Ann-Sofie Eriksson; [2023-09-21]
    Keywords : user frustrations; case study; re-engineering;

    Abstract : [Context and Motivation] PROSIT+ Designer is a Volvo Group-developed application focused on operational development for vehicle production. Since its launch, 15 years ago, PROSIT+ Designer has not had any major revisions or updates. [Question/problem] The frustrations from end users are, as a result, piling up. READ MORE

  5. 5. On Systematically Exploring the State Space for Events with SFCs

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Younis Akel; Gianmarco Iachella; [2023-08-07]
    Keywords : Autonomous driving systems; scenario-based testing; space-filling curve SFC ; characteristic stripe patterns CSP ; permutations; state-space; areas of interest AOI ;

    Abstract : In the process of developing autonomous driving systems (AD systems), ensuring safety remains a constant and continuous priority. Scenario-based testing is a popular approach to guarantee the safety of AD systems, which however meets challenges in terms of diversity and efficiency of generation, as well as evaluating existing test case datasets in terms of their coverage of the different variations of a particular maneuver.
