1. Aerodynamic Studies of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines using the Actuator Line Model
Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses the unsteady aerodynamics involved in the operation of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). The main focus is to represent and understand the most relevant phenomena within the resulting flow pattern as the wake structure, loads on the different turbine components and the performance of the rotor.

2. Numerical computations of wind turbine wakes
Sammanfattning : Numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations are performed to achieve a better understanding of the behaviour of wakes generated by wind turbines. The simulations are performed by combining the in-house developed computer code EllipSys3D with the actuator line and disc methodologies. LÄS MER
3. Numerical study on instability and interaction of wind turbine wakes
Sammanfattning : The optimization of new generation of the wind farms is dependent on our understanding of wind turbine wake development, wake dynamics and the interaction of the wakes. The overall goal of the optimization is decreasing the fatigue loading and increasing the power production of the wind farms. LÄS MER
4. Nonlinear Model-based Control of Automotive Powertrains
Sammanfattning : In recent years the focus of powertrain control has shifted perspective from control of the individual powertrain components to control of the complete powertrain, so-called integrated powertrain control. The idea presented in this thesis is to view the powertrain as one single control object and to used the engine as a torque actuator to the rest of the driveline. LÄS MER
5. Microfabrication and evaluation of piezoceramic actuators
Sammanfattning : There is an increasing interest for miniaturised actuators in a number of technological fields such as automation or medicine (e.g. prostheses, medical pumps etc.). LÄS MER
