  1. 11. Actuators for autonomous microrobots

    Author : Niklas Snis; Stefan Johansson; Urban Simu; Alvo Aabloo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Engineering physics; Locomotion; Microrobot; PZT; P VDF-TrFE ; Autonomous; Multilayer; Actuator; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents actuators used in autonomous microsystems. Characteristic for all actuators presented is the low drive voltage and the low power consumption. Different motion mechanisms have been studied and applied in various locomotion modules for microrobots. READ MORE

  2. 12. Towards semi-automation of forestry cranes : automated trajectory planning and active vibration damping

    Abstract : Forests represent one of the biggest terrestrial ecosystems of Earth, that can produce important raw renewable materials such as wood with the help of sun, air and water. To efficiently extract these raw materials, the tree harvesting process is highly mechanized in developed countries, meaning that advanced forestry machines are continuously used to fell, to process and to transport the logs and biomass obtained from the forests.

  4. 14. Dimensioning Tools of MEA Actuator Systems, Including Modeling, Analysis and Technology Comparison

    Author : Mohsen Torabzadeh-Tari; Göran Engdahl; Hans Bernhoff; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dimensioning tools; MEA; More Electric Aircraft; EMA; Electro Mechanical Actuator; EM; Electrical Machine; Converter; Inverter; Finite Element Method; FEM; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : Aircraft design is an example of complex engineering where dimensioning tools can be valuable for the designers and decision makers in the early stage of the development process. These tools can be in form of a database over key numbers for different components or technologies. One of the critical parts of an aircraft is the actuator system. READ MORE

  5. 15. Linear control of systems with actuator constraints

    Author : Stefan Rönnbäck; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the problem of how to design a linear and time invariant controller (continuous- or discrete-time) for a SISO- or SIMO-system with amplitude constraints in the actuator. One of the basic ideas is to model the constraints by means of a 'disturbance' δ acting at the input of the process. READ MORE
