  1. 1. Enhanced Detection of Minispare Usage

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Isabella Hansen; Johanna Wikström; [2021]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Minispares, or spare wheels, can often cause a lot of problems for the control of the car since it rotates notably faster than normal tyres. This because it is often smaller to reduce weight. When a minispare is used, it needs to be detected for the control system to understand that one tyre is allowed to spin faster compared to the others. READ MORE

  3. 2. Tire and force distribution modeling and validation for wheel loader applications.

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

    Author : John Spencer; Bernhard Wullt; [2017]
    Keywords : Tire model; Force distribution model; Wheel loader; normal force; Magic formula;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the development of a machine force distribution estimator and the calibration of tire models for wheel loader applications. Forces generated in the contact patch between the tires and the ground are crucial for understanding and controlling machine dynamics. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exploration of steering feel

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Vladimir Chevatco; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the concept of steering feel, as experienced by the driver, is explored. First a literature review is conducted to highlight previous work on this topic. From this review, the Norman on-centre test and steering wheel torque are identified as important concepts, and are chosen to form the base of this thesis. READ MORE

  5. 4. Virkesflöde och val av hjulsystem på virkesfordon inom Region Iggesund, Holmen Skog

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Resource Management

    Author : Carl Rådström; [2014]
    Keywords : virkesflöde; vägstandard; tillgänglighet; transportavstånd; transportteknik; transportkostnad;

    Abstract : Syftet med detta arbete har varit att undersöka hur virkesflödet från Region Iggesund varierar under året och belysa orsakerna till detta samt att beräkna transportkostnader och analysera vilka distrikt som skulle kunna ha störst nytta av virkesfordon med Central Tyre Inflation (CTI) eller Super Singel hjul, alternativt hjulsystem som kombinerar de båda teknikerna. Utgångspunkten har varit rationell virkesförsörjning från skog till industri, med så låga virkeslager och transportkostnader som möjligt. READ MORE

  6. 5. Electric power assist steering system parameterization and optimization employing CAE

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Marcus Ljungberg; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The vehicle brands of today need to develop high quality products in a short period of time to satisfy the consumer needs and to stand out in the competition. To be able to do this simulation tools have been used more and more in the development process. READ MORE
