  1. 1. Deployment Control of Spinning Space Webs and Membranes

    Author : Mattias Gärdsback; Anders Eriksson; Gunnar Tibert; Thomas W. Murphey; KTH; []
    Keywords : Flexible structures; space webs; membranes; solar sails; solar power systems; deployment control; optimal control; centrifugal force deployment; spin deployment; rotation-free; shell elements; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Future solar sail and solar power satellite missions require deployment of large and lightweight flexible structures in space. One option is to spin the assembly and use the centrifugal force for deployment, stiffening and stabilization. READ MORE

  2. 2. Continuum modelling of the mechanical response of paper-based materials

    Author : Eric Borgqvist; Hållfasthetslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; paperboard; constitutive modeling; anistropy; finte deformations; plasticity; damage; continuum mechanics;

    Abstract : Continuum based elasto-plastic-damage models for paperboard have been established in this work. The thesis begins with an introductory section that describes the mechanical properties of paperboard and some of the converting processes during forming of a package. READ MORE

  3. 3. Forming of stacked unidirectional prepreg materials

    Author : Ylva Larberg; Malin Åkermo; Dan Zenkert; Kevin Potter; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion;

    Abstract : To reduce cost of structural composites, the development of more efficient manufacturing methods is of great interest. An automatic tape layer (ATL) can be used to perform the layup in an efficient way for flat sheets and the second step is by pressure forming the prepreg stack onto a given mould. READ MORE

  4. 4. Microfabrication and Integration Using Sub-Picosecond Laser Pulses and Magnetic Assembly

    Author : Miku Laakso; Frank Niklaus; Massimo Mastrangeli; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Microfabricated devices and systems have many exciting applications such as accelerometers for triggering the launching of airbags in cars, gyroscopes for sensing the rotations of mobile phones, and micromirror arrays for controlling light reflection in digital light projectors. These devices are currently produced using semiconductor manufacturing techniques, which are suitable for large volumes of mostly planar structures. READ MORE

  5. 5. Continuum modeling of the mechanical properties of paperboard

    Author : Eric Borgqvist; Hållfasthetslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; director vectors; polyconvexity; plastic spin; creasing; anisotropy; fiberous materials; Continuum Modeling; Paperboard;

    Abstract : Continuum based elasto-plastic models for paperboard have been established in the work herein. The thesis begins with an introductory section that describes some of the background of the problem and gives some more motivation for the modeling choices made in the appended papers. READ MORE
