  1. 1. Efficient Full-Scale CFD for Ship Hydrodynamics

    Författare :Michal Orych; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CFD; Self-propulsion; Ship; Verification; Uncertainty; Full-scale; Validation; Seakeeping; Energy-Saving Device; Roughness; RANS;

    Sammanfattning : An efficient numerical approach for ship hydrodynamics, involving a hybrid free-surface potential flow/RANS method, is explored. The work focuses on estimating the delivered power of ships in calm water and in waves, highlighting the benefits of full-scale simulations, particularly for ships with Energy Saving Devices.

  3. 2. End-Shield Bridges for High-Speed Railway : Full scale dynamic testing and numerical simulations

    Författare :Hesham Elgazzar; Jean-Marc Battini; Mahir Ülker-Kaustell; Morgan Johansson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high-speed railway; end-shield bridges; structural dynamics; soil structure interaction; full scale bridge testing; controlled forced excitation; hydraulic bridge exciter; frequency response function; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing need for High-Speed Railway (HSR) to reduce the travelling time requires increasing research within this field. Bridges are main components of any railway network, including HSR networks, and the optimization of their design for this purpose would contribute to a faster and more cost effective development of the HSR network.

  4. 3. Energy Consumption and Running Time for Trains : modelling of running resistance and driver behaviour based on full scale testing

    Författare :Piotr Lukaszewicz; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy consumption; Running time; running resistance; driver behaviour; freight; train; energy coasting method; aerodynamic drag; driver model; degree of coasting; slippage; wind; Energy saving; braking ratio; powering ratio; full scale testing; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The accuracy in determined energy consumption and runningtime of trains, by means of computer simulation, is dependent upon the various models used. This thesis aims at developing validated models of running resistance, train and of a generaldriver, all based on full scale testing. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Att forma sitt rum : fullskalemodellering i participatoriska designprocesser

    Författare :Elisabeth Dalholm Hornyánszky; Institutioner vid LTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dwelling; work environment; user; space; language game; reflection in action; tacit knowledge; full-scale modeling; design process; design tool; participation; participatory design; case study; mock-up; Architecture; interior design; Arkitektur; inredningsarkitektur;

    Sammanfattning : Architects design work sometimes originates from a simplified view of human demands and needs, which may result in environments that do not fulfill the users requirements. This thesis refers to five different case studies where the affected users were involved in the creation of their dwellings or working environment. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Submerged Transmission in Wave Energy Converters : Full Scale In-Situ Experimental Measurements

    Författare :Erland Strömstedt; Mats Leijon; Hans Bernhoff; Jan-Olov Aidanpää; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave energy converter; direct drive; submerged transmission; piston rod; seal housing; sealing system; laser triangulation sensor; offshore measurements; relative displacement; vibrations; tilt angle; tilting; wear estimation.; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : Different wave power technologies are in development around the world in different stages of prototype testing. So far only a few devices have been deployed offshore at full scale for extended periods of time. Little data is published about how these different devices perform. LÄS MER
