  1. 6. Active Flow Control for Aircrafts and Heavy Vehicles

    Författare :Mohammad El-Alti; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trucks; Drag reduction; Bluff-body; Large-eddy Simulation; Wake; Tilt-rotor wing; optimization; Aircrafts; Heavy vehicles; Active and Passive Flow Control; Response surface methodology; Synthetic-jet Actuator;

    Sammanfattning : Bluff-body flows are dominated by large dissipative vortex-shedding wakes with low mean pressure compared to the high pressure on their frontal area. This induced pressure difference is the major contribution to the total aerodynamic drag. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Active Flow Control for Drag Reduction of Heavy Vehicles

    Författare :Mohammad El-Alti; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active and Passive Flow Control; Tilt-rotor wing; Large-eddySimulation; Heavy vehicles; optimization; Full-scale road test; Trucks; Bluff-body; Wake; Drag reduction; Aircrafts; Response surface methodology; Synthetic-jet Actuator;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis considers the aerodynamics of trucks. The work focuses on the aerodynamic drag caused by the wake. Bluff-body flows are dominated by large dissipative vortex-shedding wakes with a low mean pressure compared to the high pressure on their frontal area. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Nervous mechanisms of postural control

    Författare :Anastasia Karayannidou; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Postural control; equilibrium; body confguration; motor cortex; reticulospinal system; standing; locomotion; spinal cord injury; cat; rabbit; lamprey;

    Sammanfattning : Maintenance of body confguration and orientation in space (postural control) is a vital motor function. A general goal of the present study was to analyze nervous feedback mechanisms for the maintenance of posture during different motor behaviors and with different postural perturbations. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Tilting trains : Enhanced benefits and strategies for less motion sickness

    Författare :Rickard Persson; Mats Berg; Björn Kufver; Simon Iwnicki; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tilting trains; running time; ride comfort; motion sickness; tilt control; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Gröna tåget; Järnvägsgruppen - Gröna tåget;

    Sammanfattning : Carbody tilting is today a mature and inexpensive technology that allows higher train speeds in horizontal curves, thus shortening travel time. This doctoral thesis considers several subjects important for improving the competitiveness of tilting trains compared to non-tilting ones. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Neuronal mechanisms of feedback postural control

    Författare :Li-Ju Hsu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :postural control; equilibrium; body configuration; reticulospinal neurons; stretch receptor neurons; galvanic vestibular stimulation; artificial feedback; locomotion; spinalization; rabbit; lamprey;

    Sammanfattning : Different species maintain a basic body posture due to the activity of the postural control system. An efficient control of the body orientation, as well as the body configuration, is important for standing and during locomotion. LÄS MER
