  1. 1. Modeling wind-induced currents in lake Bolmen, Sweden, using TELEMAC 2D

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Prasanjaya Bandara Ekanayake; [2021]
    Keywords : Bolmen Lake; TELEMAC 2D; Wind induced currents; QGIS; Blue Kenue; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Transport and material intermixing within lake systems have a significant impact on lake water quality. However, since researchers are primarily concerned with biological, environmental, and ecological aspects, physics and hydrodynamic behavior in lake water currents frequently receive less attention.

  3. 2. Multipoint Measurements of Magnetic Holes in the Pristine Solar Wind

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

    Author : Henrik Mejergren; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Satellite data from the Cluster satellites have been used to find and evaluate structures in the pristine solar wind, referred to as magnetic holes. By using multipoint measurements, size and orientation-estimates are established. Other characteristics of interest are also examined, such as velocity, temperature, density, and pressure. READ MORE

  4. 3. Wind Vector Estimation by Drone

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

    Author : EDVIN KUGELBERG; OSCAR ANDERSSON; [2020]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Drone Simulation; UAV; Wind Measuring; WindVector Estimation; Quadcopter Project.;

    Abstract : An original approach for measuring wind speed and direction by the use ofdrones was proposed and compared to an existing one. The original approach allowed the drone to drift with the wind and use the translatory velocity for input into a non-linear estimator, while the existing approach used a stationary hovering drone and its tilt for input to an estimator.

  5. 4. Compact safety system for automatic flagpole : Flow sensor anemometer

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

    Author : David Ström; Carl Jensen; [2019]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Thermal Mass Flow Sensor; Anemometer; Automatic Flagpole; Automation; Mekatronik; Flödessensor; Anemometer; Automatisk Flaggstång; Automation;

    Abstract : Automating tasks and processes are becoming more and more common in both corporate and everyday life. The aim of this project is to assist the company Hotswap in the development of a safety system for an existing automatic flagpole. READ MORE

  6. 5. Flow Separation Control Utilizing Plasma Actuators

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Stefan Nilsson; [2018]
    Keywords : plasma actuator; flow separation control; fluid dynamics; aerodynamics; aerospace engineering; plasma physics;

    Abstract : The goal of this thesis was to both theoretically and experimentally show the effect of a plasma actuator for flow separation control.  In the theoretical part a solver was implemented in MATLAB code, to solve the governing equations describing the plasma actuator. READ MORE
