  2. 2. On the stability and control of piecewise-smooth dynamical systems with impacts and friction

    Författare :Fredrik Svahn; Annika Stensson Trigell; Harry Dankowicz; Jenny Jerrelind; Lawrie Virgin; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-smooth dynamics; nonlinear control; low-velocity impacts; friction; bifurcations; Solid mechanics; Fastkroppsmekanik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the analysis of dynamical systems suitable to be modelled by piecewise-smooth differential equations. In such systems the continuous-in-time dynamics is interrupted by discrete-in-time jumps in the state or governing equations of motion. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Damage Tolerance of Impacted Composite Sandwich Structures

    Författare :Moeen ud din Saeed Rajput; Malin Åkermo; Stefan Hallström; Magnus Burman; Christian Berggreen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; composite sandwich; cellular; polymer; material characterization; modulus; non-crimp fabric; low velocity impact; vibration; uncertainty analysis; drop-weight impact; fractography; barely visible impact damage; X-ray microtomography; compression-after-impact; bending-after-impact; high speed image processing; damage resistance; damage tolerance; Aerospace Engineering; Flyg- och rymdteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with damage tolerance of impacted sandwich structures for load bearing applications. Composite sandwich structures find wide application as lightweight solutions in aerospace components, since weight reduction and less fuel emissions are primary concerns for aircraft manufactures.

  4. 4. Scattering of seismic waves in random velocity models : Finite difference simulation

    Författare :Lena Frenje; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Geofysik med inriktning mot fasta jordens fysik; Geophysics with specialization in Solid Earth Physics;

    Sammanfattning : The small-scale heterogeneities within the Earth's crust and the effect these heterogeneities have on seismic waves have gained increasing interest in the last 15 years. One approach to study seismic wave scattering is through numerical simulations in random media. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Neck injuries in rear impacts : Dummy neck development, dummy evaluation and test condition specifications

    Författare :Astrid Linder; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Neck; Injury; Anthropometric dummy; Severity; Impact test; Rear end collision; Seat; Mathematical model; Velocity; Thesis; Optimization; Mathematical neck models; Rear impact tests; Biomechanics; Road: Components of the vehicle; Road: Components of the vehicle;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of the work underlying this thesis was firstly to develop a neck for a new rear impact dummy, to evaluate the complete dummy and to specify test conditions for a consumer test with attention to AIS 1 neck injuries in rear impacts. In the development of the dummy neck, a mathematical neck model was developed and evaluated. LÄS MER
