   Author : Sarah Tell; Raid Karoumi; Ülker-Kaustell Mahir; Andreas Andersson; Bill F. Jr. Spencer; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dynamics; vibration mitigation; railway bridge; high-speed trains; bridge deck acceleration; passive damping; fluid viscous dampers; retrofit; dynamik; vibrationsdämpning; järnvägsbro; höghastighetståg; brobaneacceleration; passiv dämpning; viskösa dämpare; eftermontering; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

   Abstract : At the moment of writing, an expansion of the Swedish railway network has started, by constructions of new lines for high-speed trains. The aim is to create a high-speed connection between the most populous cities in Sweden - Stockholm, Göteborg and Malmö, and the rest of Europe. READ MORE

4. 12. Active Junction Control and Piezoelectric Hybrid Damping for Improving the Acoustic Performance of Lightweight Structures

   Author : Jonas Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hybrid passive-active control; Piezoelectric shunt damping; Sound radiation; Active junction control;

   Abstract : Weight reduction is a key factor in lowering the fuel consumption and thereby the greenhouse emissions from vehicles. However, reducing the weight normally results in a deterioration of the acoustic performance. Thus, the purpose of this thesis is to investigate damping treatments for lightweight vehicle panels.

5. 13. Passive Island Detection of Microgrid by Grid Forming Inverter

   Author : Shoaib Salim Inamdar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microgrid; passive island detection; Grid forming; rotor angle deviation; non-detection zone; inertia; virtual synchronous machine; voltage vector shift.;

   Abstract : The supply reliability of a local grid will be improved if the local grid is managed as a microgrid, with the ability to operate in island mode when the main grid is temporarily unavailable. This thesis focuses on microgrids powered by inverter-based resources (IBRs), one or several of which need to be equipped with grid forming (GFM) capability for establishing and controlling the voltage and frequency of the microgrid during island operation.

6. 14. Higher harmonic cavities at 3rd generation synchrotron light sources

   Author : Mattias Georgsson; Lunds universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Double RF system; Electron storage ring; Instabilities; Landau damping; Beam lifetime; Physics; Synchrotron radiation; Fysik;

   Abstract : Synchrotron radiation is a tool widely used in science. It is produced by electron accelerators called storage rings. With the high performance of the 3rd generation synchrotron light sources, the scientific results are excellent. It is important to identify and overcome the limitations of a storage ring in order to enhance its performance. READ MORE

7. 15. On Active Secondary Suspension in Rail Vehicles to Improve Ride Comfort

   Author : Anneli Orvnäs; Sebastian Stichel; Rickard Persson; Roger Goodall; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rail vehicle; active secondary suspension; ride comfort; sky-hook damping; H∞ control; multi-body simulations; on-track tests; Järnvägsgruppen - Gröna tåget; Järnvägsgruppen - Gröna tåget; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik;

   Abstract : One way to make rail vehicles a competitive means of transportation is to increase running speed. However, higher speeds usually generate increased forces and accelerations on the vehicle, which have a negative effect on ride comfort. With conventional passive suspension, it may be difficult to maintain acceptable passenger comfort. READ MORE
