  2. 1. Pay tracing tools for high frequency electromagnetics simulations

    Author : Sandy Sefi; KTH; []
    Keywords : CEM; GTD; Ray Tracing; NURBS; Software Architecture; Shadowing;

    Abstract : Over the past 20 years, the development in ComputationalElectromagnetics has produced a vast choice of methods based onthe large number of existing mathematical formulations of theMaxwell equations. None of them dominate over the others,instead they complement each other and the choice of methoddepends on the frequency range of the electromagnetic waves. READ MORE

  4. 2. Computational Methods in Conceptual Structural Design

    Author : Vedad Alic; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; conceptual design; conceptual structural design; ground-borne vibrations; form finding; optimization; dynamic relaxation; graphic statics; reciprocal figures; strut-and-tie; finite element method; isogeometric analysis; NURBS; CAD; numerical modelling;

    Abstract : Conceptual design is the first phase in the design process in which all the requirements and design objectives are synthesized into conceptual alternatives. In practice today, major decisions regarding the buildings function, massing, and overall form are usually made during the first phase. READ MORE

  5. 3. Numerical modelling of geomaterials at failure

    Author : Alex Spetz; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; soil-structure interaction; soil plasticity; phase-field fracture model; compression driven fractures; artificial rock; porous rock; finite element analysis; isogeometric analysis; NURBS; numerical methods;

    Abstract : Geotechnical engineering is the science dealing with mechanics of soils and rocks and its engineering applications. Geotechnical engineering projects vary in a wide range, from evaluation of the stability of natural slopes and man-made soil deposits, to the design of earthworks and foundations. READ MORE

  6. 4. Design optimisation of aeroengine compressor blades

    Author : Jörgen Burman; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Optimisation of multistage axial compressors is a time-demanding challenge in large need of effective methods. Traditionally, the design has been based on "trial-and-error" procedures, which count on the skills and experience of the designer to suggest redesigns that are likely to yield improvements.

  7. 5. Computational methods for shape verification of free-form surfaces

    Author : Per Bergström; Mårten Gulliksson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Teknisk vetenskapliga beräkningar; formverifiering; online; formmätning; Scientific Computing; Teknisk-vetenskapliga beräkningar;

    Abstract : Beräkningsmetoder för formverifiering av friformsytor utgör huvudinnehållet i denna doktorsavhandling. En gemensam egenskap för dessa metoder är att de möjliggör formverifiering online direkt i produktionslinan. Av den anledningen måste metoderna vara snabba och robusta. READ MORE
