  1. 1. Characterizations of ground flashes from tropic to northern region

    Author : Zikri Abadi Baharudin; Vernon Cooray; Mahbubur Rahman; Farhad Rachidi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Positive negative cloud-to-ground lightning flashes; Initiation position; slow field changes; close ground flashes; preliminary breakdown process; Engineering Science with specialization in Atmospheric Discharges; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot atmosfäriska urladdningar;

    Abstract : This thesis portrays new information concerning the cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning flashes or ground flashes produced by thunderclouds. It emphasizes the importance of characterizing lightning studies as the relationship between lightning mechanisms, and of incorporating the influence of geographical location, latitude and storm type.

  2. 2. Analysis and Control Aspects of a PMSynRel Drive in a Hybrid Electric Vehicle Application

    Author : Shuang Zhao; Chandur Sadarangani; Zi-Qiang Zhu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active damping control; electric drive; electric vehicle; hybrid electric vehicle; integrated charger; permanent-magnet assisted synchronous reluctance machine; position estimation; sensorless control;

    Abstract : This thesis deals withmodeling and control of an electric drive equipped with a permanentmagnet assisted synchronous reluctance (PMSynRel) machine for a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle application.In the first part of the thesis, a special use of the PMSynRel machine in consideration, known as an integrated charger concept, is investigated.

  3. 3. Slipstream and Flow Structures in the Near Wake of High-Speed Trains

    Author : Tomas W. Muld; Gunilla Efraimsson; Dan S. Henningson; Chris Baker; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Train transportation is a vital part of the transportation system of today. Asthe speed of the trains increase, the aerodynamic effects become more impor-tant. One aerodynamic effect that is of vital importance for passengers’ andtrack workers’ safety is slipstream, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 4. An experimental study of fiber suspensions between counter-rotating discs

    Author : Charlotte Ahlberg; Daniel Söderberg; Fredrik Lundell; Srdjan Sasic; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fiber suspension flow; rotating discs. shear flow; self-organization of fibers; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : The behavior of fibers suspended in a flow between two counter-rotating discs has been studied experimentally. This is inspired by the refining process in the papermaking process where cellulose fibers are ground between discs in order to change performance in the papermaking process and/or qualities of the final paper product.

  5. 5. Harmonic Mitigation in Traction Drives

    Author : Hans Bängtsson; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydraulics; Mechanical engineering; converter; line interference; track circuit; Railway signalling system; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik;

    Abstract : In railway traffic the low friction between wheel and rail causes long braking distances, normally much longer than the sight distance of the driver, i.e. if the driver starts the braking when a problem on the track is discovered, it might be too late to brake the train. Therefore, safe railway traffic can not only rely on the driver. READ MORE
