  1. 1. Railway Open System Tribology

    Author : Yezhe Lyu; Ulf Olofsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wheel; Rail; Brake; Environmental conditions; Tribology; Noise; Particle; Hjul; Räl; Broms; Miljöförhållanden; Tribologi; Ljud; Partiklar; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Tribology in the railway system is of increasing interest in the new railway era due to the demand for higher speed and load capacity. Since railway vehicles operate in an open environment, their performance depends greatly on temperature, humidity and natural and artificial contaminants. READ MORE

  2. 2. Languages and Tools for Optimization of Large-Scale Systems

    Author : Johan Åkesson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Paper Machine Modeling; Plate Reactor; Languages for Physical Modeling; Compiler Construction; Dynamic Optimization; Modelica; Optimica; Manual Control; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : Modeling and simulation are established techniques for solving design problems in a wide range of engineering disciplines today. Dedicated computer languages, such as Modelica, and efficient software tools are available. In this thesis, an extension of Modelica, Optimica, targeted at dynamic optimization of Modelica models is proposed. READ MORE

  3. 3. Harmonic Mitigation in Traction Drives

    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

  4. 4. Evaluation of wayside condition monitoring technologies for condition-based maintenance of railway vehicles

    Author : Robert Lagnebäck; Luleå tekniska universitet; []

    Abstract : Luossavaara-Kiirunavaara AB (LKAB) is an iron ore mining company in Sweden that strives to be one of the leading suppliers of iron ore products. In the chain from mining to end customers, transportation efficiency plays a mayor role in the outcome of the company's total financial result. READ MORE

  5. 5. Stroke and Functional Recovery - An experimental study on environmental influence and gene expression after cortical infarcts in the rat

    Author : Anette Risedal; Lund Neurologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurology; neuropsychology; cortical infarct; rat; enriched environment; functional recovery; brain-derived neurotrophic factor; inducible transcription factors; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi; Neurologi; glucocorticoids; neurophysiology;

    Abstract : Abstract Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the western world, and the number one cause of disability. 85% of all strokes are ischemic. Most stroke survivors will experience recovery of function. The mechanisms behind this improvement are partly unknown, but may involve elements of both compensation and restoration. READ MORE
