  2. 16. Sound field separation with microphone arrays

    Author : Elias Zea; Ines Lopez Arteaga; Mats Åbom; Leif Kari; Jean-Hugh Thomas; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sound field separation; Microphone arrays; Near-field acoustic holography; Reflecting surfaces; Railway rolling noise; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Sound field analysis is a fundamental tool in the design, manufacturing, testing and diagnosis of machines and transportation means, as well as the legislations that regulate noise levels in order to minimize environmental pollution. Customary solutions to the problem of sound field analysis are microphone array technologies such as near-field acoustic holography (NAH) and beamforming. READ MORE

  4. 17. Computational weld mechanics : Towards simplified and cost effective FE simulations

    Author : Ayjwat Awais Bhatti; Zuheir Barsoum; Lennart Josefson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : It is the demand of the world’s ever increasing energy crisis to reduce fuel consumption wherever possible. One way of meeting this demand is by reducing the weight of a structure by replacing thick plates of low strength steel with thin plates of high strength steel in the structure. READ MORE

  5. 18. Micro-structural based acoustic modelling of anisotropic open cell materials

    Author : Eva Lundberg; Huina Mao; Bradley Semeniuk; Peter Göransson; Mathieu Gaborit; Romain Rumpler; Peter Göransson; Elke Deckers; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sound absorption; vehicle; anisotropic; foam; micro-structure; resource efficient; transfer matrix method; ljudabsorption; anisotrop; skum; mikrostruktur; TMM; fordon; resurseffektiv; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : A method for the calculation of the acoustic performance of open-cell foammaterials is discussed. From a known micro-structural geometry and theconstituent material, the relevant acoustic properties are computed using apreviously published analytical method for the calculation of the dynamicdrag impedance and a previously published method for the calculation of theelastic moduli.

  6. 19. Fatigue and Fracture of High-Strength Steels : Improving Reliability in Strength Assessment

    Author : Gustav Hultgren; Zuheir Barsoum; Rami Mansour; Torbjörn Narström; Gary Marquis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-Strength Steel; Quality assurance; Probabilistic modeling; Fatigue; Fracture mechanics; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : Structural steel plays a fundamental role in the heavy industry, serving as a key material for numerous load-bearing products and equipment. Its widespread use is attributed to its robustness, resistance to wear, ease of use in construction, and cost-effectiveness. READ MORE

  7. 20. Modeling and Control of EGR on Marine Two-Stroke Diesel Engines

    Author : Xavier Llamas; Lars Eriksson; Gerasimos Theotokatos; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modeling for control; Ship Propulsion; Dynamic Simulation; Exhaust Gas Recirculation; Mean Value Engine Model; Parameterization; Compressor; Model Extrapolation;

    Abstract : The international marine shipping industry is responsible for the transport of around 90% of the total world trade. Low-speed two-stroke diesel engines usually propel the largest trading ships. This engine type choice is mainly motivated by its high fuel efficiency and the capacity to burn cheap low-quality fuels.
