2. 1. Ride Comfort Optimization of Buses

   Author : Peter Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; structural vibrations; FEM; global optimization; ride comfort; roll control system; MBS; optimization; bus; road irregularities; sensitivity analysis;

   Abstract : As the design of buses is constantly improving, passengers are becoming more fastidious and the demand for a more comfortable travelling environment is constantly increasing. The main objective of this thesis is to contribute to the understanding of how the design of buses affects the ride comfort characteristics. READ MORE

4. 2. Adaptive structural design - Integration of computational tools for CAD, adaptive FEM and optimization

   Author : Per Kettil; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Adaptive; structural mechanics; optimization; integration; FEM; CAD; design;

   Abstract : BackgroundConstruction is one of the largest industries with major impact on economy, environment and society. Improved structural design is important since the decisions made during the design process strongly influence all later stages, i.e. READ MORE

5. 3. Sustainable Implementation of Electrified Roads : Structural and Material Analyses

   Author : Feng Chen; Niki Kringos; Andreas Loizos; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrified road; Structural performance; Constitutive modelling; Asphalt; Dielectric loss.; Elektrifierade vägar; Strukturellt beteende; Konstruktivt modellerande; Asfalt; Dielektrisk förlust.; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Abstract : Given the promise of the Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) technology for eRoad applications, the potential challenges for a successful integration of dynamic IPT technology into the physical road structure are explored extensively in this research work. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is selected for studying the structural performance of an eRoad under operational conditions. READ MORE

6. 4. Non-invasive EEG Functional Neuroimaging for Localizing Epileptic Brain Activity

   Author : Yazdan Shirvany; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Somatosensory Evoked Potentials; Forward Problem; Inverse Problem; Mathematical Dipole; Epileptic Spike; Functional Neuroimaging; Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Particle Swarm Optimization; Source localization; Finite Element Method; Non-invasive EEG;

   Abstract : Epilepsy is one of the most common neurologic diseases in the world, and is present in up to 1% of the world’s population. Many patients with epilepsy never receive the treatment which make them seizure free. Surgical therapy has become an important therapeutic alternative for patients with drug resistant epilepsy.
