1. Multi-Disciplinary Conceptual Design of Future Jet Engine Systems
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes various aspects of the development of a multi-disciplinary aero engine conceptual design tool, TERA2020 (Techno-economic, Environmental and Risk Assessment for 2020), based on an explicit algorithm that considers: engine performance, engine aerodynamic and mechanical design, aircraft design and performance, emissions prediction and environmental impact, engine and airframe noise, and production, maintenance and direct operating costs.As part of this research effort, a newly-derived semi-empirical NOx correlation for modern rich-burn single-annular combustors is proposed.

2. Survival Estimation for Opportunistic Maintenance
Sammanfattning : The problem of rational maintenance of aircraft engines is studied with respect to the influence of random events. Aircraft engines can be more economically maintained and resources can be saved if the maintenance process is improved. LÄS MER
3. Improved remaining useful life estimations for on-condition parts in aircraft engines
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on obtaining better estimates of remaining life for on-condition (OC) parts in aircraft engines. Aircraft engine components are commonly classified into three categories, life-limited parts (LLP), OC-parts and consumables. Engine maintenance typi-cally accounts for 10% to 20% of aircraft-related operating cost. LÄS MER
4. Optimization of Geometric Robustness of Aero Structures in Early Design Phases
Sammanfattning : Every manufactured product is different. This variation can be detrimental to quality and product functionality. In an aerospace context, this variation may even result in serious threats to the safety and reliability of aircraft. However, it is not the variation itself that is harmful, but the effects it has on functionality. LÄS MER
5. Customer-perceived Value in Business Relationships
Sammanfattning : The content of customer-perceived value has in this study been explored with the aim of providing an understanding of the concept. The evolving service-centered logic for marketing puts an emphasis on value, especially the value perceived and determined by the customer. LÄS MER
