  2. 1. Marine Propeller Optimisation - Strategy and Algorithm Development

    Author : Florian Vesting; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cavitation; artificial neural network; RANS; Kriging; potential flow; genetic algorithm; constrained optimisation; PSO; marine propeller;

    Abstract : Recent trends in the shipping industry, e.g., expanded routing in ecologically sensitive areas and emission regulations, have sharpened the perception of efficient propeller designs. Currently, propeller efficiency, estimated fuel consumption and, more often, propeller-radiated noise are parameters that steer the business Zeitgeist. READ MORE

  6. 4. Stainless Steel Corrugated Web Girders for Composite Road Bridges: Concept Evaluation and Flange Buckling Resistance

    Author : Fatima Hlal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Investment cost; Genetic algorithm; Duplex stainless steel; LCC; Corrugated web; Flange buckling resistance; Optimization; Composite bridges; LCA; Road bridges;

    Abstract : Achieving a sustainable bridge design requires careful consideration of economic viability and environmental impact over the entire lifespan of the structure. While stainless steel is recognized for its excellent life cycle performance, its high cost prevents it from being used to a larger extent in bridges. READ MORE

  7. 5. Inverse and optimization problems in electromagnetics -- a finite-element method perspective

    Author : JOHAN WINGES; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microwave measurements; computational electromagnetics; finite element method; optimization; inductive power transfer; compressed sensing; wireless power; brick-tetrahedron hybrid; parameter estimation; inverse problems;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a selection of inverse and optimization problems are studied where the finite element method (FEM) serves as a comprehensive tool to solve electromagnetic field problems that lack an analytic solution. The inverse problems are typically formulated in terms of an optimization problem where the misfit between a measurement and the corresponding result of a computational model is minimized. READ MORE
