  1. 1. The Perception of Weight in Virtual Reality When Combining Velocity Limiting and Control/Display Ratio Modification

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Kári Steinn Aðalsteinsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Weight perception; virtual reality; velocity limiting; control display ratio modification; viktuppfattning; virtuell verklighet; hastighetsbegränsning; ändring av kontroll- visningsförhållande;

    Abstract : This study explored the perception of weight in virtual reality using the combination of limiting the velocity with which an object can be lifted and control/display ratio modification and what affordances and challenges the combination might bring. Both interaction methods have thus far been explored independently, but not together. READ MORE

  3. 2. Simulation based optimizing of fog mesh structures for enhanced fog collection

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Jiawei Miao; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Water scarcity has been an increasing problem in many places around the world. According to the World Resources Institute, in 2019 nearly 2.6 billion people which takes a third of the world's population live in the area with 'high water scarcity', with 1.7 billion people in 17 countries living under 'extreme water scarcity'.

  4. 3. Erosion of materials in centrifugal separation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Author : Alexander Hillström; [2022]
    Keywords : Solid particle erosion; Erosion mechanism; Erosion testing;

    Abstract : Centrifugal separation is a crucial piece of technology, used in a wide range of industries. In cases where solid particles are included in the working medium, erosive wear of componentsinside a centrifugal separator is one of the reasons limiting its service life. READ MORE

  5. 4. Making Hypervelocity Stars

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Frans Forsberg; [2020]
    Keywords : Stellar Dynamics; Binary Stars; Galactic Centre; Binary Relaxation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, I investigate if the binaries that are being tidally disrupted by means of the Hills mechanism, producing hypervelocity stars, could have been transported to the galactic centre by two-body scattering. To survive a scattering event, the binary must be hard, meaning that the binding energy of the binary is higher than the kinetic energy of the collider. READ MORE

  6. 5. The fate of pebbles and planetesimals entering protoplanetary envelopes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Emil Zadera; [2019]
    Keywords : Planet formation; planet; protoplanet; protoplanetary envelope; protoplanetary atmosphere; protoplanetary growth; planetary growth model; accretion rate; vapour blob; vapourblob; vapour planet; transport of water; water on planet; pebbles; planetesimals; pebble accretion; planetesimal accretion; meteors; ablation; fragmentation; sublimation; protoplanetary disk; MMSN; accretion window; accretion channel; accretion; destruction; disruption; terminal velocity; gas; gasflow; shearingbox; exoplanet; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Planetary embryos grow by the accretion of solid dust-material, ranging from cm- to m-sized pebbles up to km-sized planetesimals. However, the underlying size-distribution of the accreted material is poorly understood. READ MORE
