2. 1. Quadruped robot control and variable leg transmissions

   Author : Johan Ingvast; Jan Wikander; Harry Dankowicz; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; walking robot; quadruped; walking; crawl; trot; passively variable transmission; PVT; variable transmission; continuously variable transmission; velocity ratio; torque ratio; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : The research presented in this thesis regards walking of quadruped robots, and particularly the walking of the Warp1 robot. The motivation for the robot is to provide a platform for autonomous walking in rough terrain. The thesis contains six papers ranging from development tools to actuation of robot legs. READ MORE

4. 2. Contaminant transport by air infiltration from crawl space to occupant area: Numerical simulations and field measurements in Swedish schools

   Author : Fredrik Domhagen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; crawl space; contaminants; infiltration model; monte carlo method; airtightness; air permeability;

   Abstract : Some Swedish school buildings built in the 1960’s and 1970’s have indoor air quality problems. Many of these buildings have a crawl space from which contaminants are suspected to originate. The poor indoor air quality cause discomfort among pupils and teachers and a solution to the problem is not always found. READ MORE

5. 3. Critical Moisture Conditions for Mould Growth on Building Materials

   Author : Pernilla Johansson; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mould; critical moisture level; building material; relative humidity; mould resistance; crawl space; attic;

   Abstract : Materials that are stored or used in damp climates may be subject to mould growth. However, all materials are not equally susceptible to mould growth. For each specific material, there is a critical moisture level. If this is exceeded, there is a risk that mould fungi will develop on the material. READ MORE

6. 4. Determination of the Critical Moisture Level for Mould Growth on Building Materials

   Author : Pernilla Johansson; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Crawl space; Fungus; Mould resistance; Wood; Building materials; Mould; Critical moisture level; Attic; Relative humidity; Cyclic conditions; Laboratory method;

   Abstract : The susceptibility to mould growth varies between building materials. The factors that most affect mould growth, the relative humidity (RH) and temperature also vary in different parts of buildings. One way of preventing the growth of mould in buildings is therefore to choose building materials that can withstand the expected conditions. READ MORE

7. 5. Fast neutron dosimetry : a study of basic dosimetric properties of fast-neutrons for external beam radiotherapy and problems associated with corrections of measured charged particle cross-sections

   Author : Jonas Söderberg; Lennart Lindborg; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Abstract : Basic dosimetric properties of fast-neutron beams with energies ≤80 MeV were explored using Monte Carlo techniques. Elementary pencil-beam dose distributions taking into account transport of all relevant types of released charged particles (protons, deuterons, tritons, 3He and a particles) were calculated and used to derive several absorbed dose distributions.
