Performance Calculations and Optimization of a Fresnel Direct Steam Generation CSP Plant with Heat Storage (Mechanical Project)
This study deals with the performance calculations of a 9MW linear Fresnel CSP plant with direct steam generation built by the Solar Division of the CNIM Company. The aim was to calculate the Continue reading
Windscreen study using a free moving headform: An investigation of windscreen behaviour when subjected to headform impact (Mechanical Project)
Pedestrian protection performance becomes more and more in focus for the car manufactures and systems to reduce injury risk are under development. A wider understanding of both the present and the future windscreen performance in free moving headform testing is Continue reading
Method Evaluation of Global-Local Finite Element Analysis (Mechanical Project)
When doing finite element analysis upon the structure of Saab’s aeroplanes a coarse global model of mainly shell elements is used to determine the load distribution for sizing the structure. At some parts of the aeroplane it is however desirable to implement Continue reading
A finite element method for calculating load distributions in bolted joint assemblies (Mechanical Project)
Bolted joints are often the most critical parts with respect to fatigue life of structures. Therefore, it is important to analyze these components and the forces they are subjected to. Continue reading
Constitutive Modelling of the Nickel base Superalloy IN718 (Mechanical Project)
One of the limiting factors in gas turbine design is the allowable metal temperatures and loads in critical components. Specially designed superalloys are used when the conditions are most severe. One of these superalloys is Continue reading
MSC Adams modelling of mechanical system in A400M Crew Entrance Door (Mechanical Project)
Saab Aerostructures has developed the Crew Entrance Door (CED) for Airbus A400M. Airbus has decided some different load cases for which the Crew Entrance Door must be built to withstand without something Continue reading
Enabling traceability of design rationale using the concept of product family description (PFD) (Mechanical Project)
This study is based on the previous researches in design automation at Sandvik Coromant. The concept of product family description (PFD) has been introduced to the company to Continue reading

The Possibility and Effects of Including the Transport Sector in the EU Emission Trading Scheme (Mechanical Project)
The European Union has initiated a scheme for trading with CO2 emission allowances as a measure to reduce greenhouse gas emission levels. Companies from certain energy demanding sectors, responsible for approximately 50 % of the total CO2 emissions in the EU, are Continue reading
Latching Microelectromechanical Shock Sensor Systems: Design, Modeling, and Experiments (Mechanical Project)
Latching shock sensors are acceleration threshold sensors that trigger when the acceleration level exceeds the designed acceleration threshold. The latching mechanism provides a mechanical memory, which keeps the sensor in Continue reading
Effect of Kinematic Variations on Viscous Pumping by a Robotic Gill Plate Array (Mechanical Project)
As the Reynolds number of a system decreases, traditional pumping techniques become less effective. In nature, oscillating appendage systems exhibit distinct patterns of movement based on their Reynolds number. Studies of pumping by mayfly nymph gill arrays have shown Continue reading
