  2. 1. On Modeling and Control of Flexible Manipulators

    Author : Stig Moberg; Svante Gunnarsson; Anders Robertsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; System identification; multivariable systems; differential-algebraic equations; robots; manipulators; flexible structures; robustness; position control; nonlinear systems; closed-loop identification; frequency-response methods; industrial robots; robotics; control; feedforward; flexible arms; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Industrial robot manipulators are general-purpose machines used for industrial automation in order to increase productivity, flexibility, and quality. Other reasons for using industrial robots are cost saving, and elimination of heavy and health-hazardous work. READ MORE

    Author : Stig Moberg; Svante Gunnarsson; Bruno Siciliano; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling; identification; control; robot manipulator; DAE; flexible multibody dynamics; inverse dynamics; benchmark; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Industrial robot manipulators are general-purpose machines used for industrial automation in order to increase productivity, flexibility, and product quality. Other reasons for using industrial robots are cost saving, and elimination of hazardous and unpleasant work. READ MORE

  5. 3. Dynamic characteristics of automobile exhaust system components

    Author : Thomas Englund; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Correlation; Exhaust system; Experimental investigation; Finite element model; Flexible joint; Modal analysis; Non-linear; Simplified modelling; Structural dynamics; Updating;

    Abstract : Demands on emission control, and low vibration and noise levels have made the design of automobile exhaust systems a much more complex task over the last few decades. This, combined with increasing competition in the automobile industry, has rendered physical prototype testing impractical as the main support for design decisions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Dynamics Study of an Automobile Exhaust System

    Author : Johan Wall; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Exhaust system; Experimental investigations; Finite element method; Flexible joint; Modal analysis; Model updating; Simplified modelling; Structural dynamics;

    Abstract : Low vibration levels are a critical objective in automobile exhaust system design. It is therefore important for design engineers to be able to predict, describe and assess the dynamics of various system design proposals during product development. READ MORE

  7. 5. Topology optimization of vehicle structures

    Author : Torbjörn Johansen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : topology optimization; frame structure; vehicle structure; flexible joint; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns topology optimization of vehicle structures. Vehicle structures are considered to be composed of beams joined together and the work has been focused on a method for beam topology optimization including joints. READ MORE
