  2. 1. Driveline Modeling and Control

    Author : Magnus Pettersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : A vehicular driveline is the system used to transfer engine torque to the wheels. Resonances in the elastic parts of the driveline are important to handle when control of the engine and the transmission is optimized.Gear shifting by engine control is a new approach for automatic gear shifting with disengaging the clutch replaced by engine control.

  4. 2. Heat Transfer and Energy Efficiency in Infrared Paper Dryers

    Author : Magnus Pettersson; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; experimental; modelling; electricity; gas; efficiency; energy; drying; dryer; heat transfer; radiation; paper; infrared; IR; coating; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : Infrared (IR) dryers are widely used in the paper industry, mainly in the production of coated paper grades. The thesis deals with various aspects of heat transfer and energy use in infrared heaters and dryers as employed in the paper industry. Both gas-fired and electric IR dryers are considered and compared. READ MORE

  5. 3. Suspended solids and metals in highway runoff : implications for treatment systems

    Author : Magnus Hallberg; Gunno Renman; Thomas Pettersson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

    Abstract : It is known that traffic is a source of pollutants and that pollutant loads increase with elevated traffic densities. Studies executed in Stockholm, Sweden advocate that highway runoff from roads with an annual average daily traffic (AADT) exceeding 30,000 vehicles need treatment before discharge to the receiving water.
