21. Effect of drag reducing plasma actuators using LES
Sammanfattning : The work performed in this thesis explores new ways of reducing the drag of ground vehicles. Specifically, the effect of plasma actuators are investigated numerically with the intention to delay separation around a half-cylinder, a geometry chosen to represent a simplified A-pillar of a truck.

22. Benefits of Coordinating Plug-In Electric Vehicles in Electric Power Systems : Through Market Prices and Use-of-System Network Charges
Sammanfattning : Both electric power systems and the transportation sector are essential constituents to modern life, enhancing social welfare, enabling economic prosperity and ultimately providing well-being to the people. However, to mitigate adverse climatological effects of emitting greenhouse gases, a rigorous de-carbonization of both industries has been set on the political agenda in many parts of the world.

23. Inverse Identification of Dynamic Wheel-rail Contact Forces
Sammanfattning : Accurate evaluation of contact forces between wheel and rail is essential in the assessmentof vehicle performance and to predict consequences of dynamic vehicle-track interaction.As the contact forces can not be measured directly in the field, one common approachis to measure the strain or acceleration at various positions on a wheel or wheel axle.

24. Towards the Identification of Wheel-Rail Contact Forces
Sammanfattning : The accurate determination of the contact forces between rail and wheel is essential inthe analysis of different kinds of rolling contact fatigue. As the contact forces cannot bemeasured directly in the field, one approach is to measure the strain at certain positionsof an instrumented wheel. LÄS MER
25. Computed tomography of sawlogs : knot detection and sawing optimization
Sammanfattning : Branches on trees introduce defects on sawn timber called knots. By scanning sawlogs using computed tomography, knots can be detected and accounted for so that the sawing process can be optimized with respect to outgoing product value. LÄS MER
