2. 11. Optimization of track geometry maintenance : a study of track geometry degradation to specify optimal inspection intervals

   Author : Iman Arasteh khouy; Per-Olof Larsson-Kråik; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

   Abstract : Railway infrastructure is a complex system which comprises different subsystems. Long useful life span is one of the important aspects of this prime mode of transport. The useful life length of its assets is highly dependent on the maintenance and renewal strategy used during its life cycle. READ MORE

4. 12. Component reliability importance indices for maintenance optimization of electrical networks

   Author : Patrik Hilber; Roland Eriksson; Lina Bertling; Gerd Kjolle; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical power technology; Reliability Importance Index; Maintenance Optimization; Asset Management; Customer Interruption Cost; Reliability Centred Maintenance RCM ; Reliability Centered Asset Management RCAM ; Monte Carlo Simulation; Elkraftteknik; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

   Abstract : Maximum asset performance is one of the major goals for electric power system managers. To reach this goal minimal life cycle cost and maintenance optimization become crucial while meeting demands from customers and regulators. READ MORE

5. 13. On maintenance management of wind and nuclear power plants

   Author : Julia Nilsson; Lina Bertling; Ulf Sandberg; KTH; []
   Keywords : electrical poduction systems; windpower; nuclear power; maintenance management; RCM; RCAM; LCC; mathematical optimization; opportunistic maintenance;

   Abstract : Electrical production in Sweden today is mainly from nuclear and hydro power. However, there is large increase in renewable energy like wind power and the installed new capacity goals are large. Several electrical production sources are important for the sustainability of the energy system. READ MORE

6. 14. Washing Machine Design Optimization Based on Dynamics Modeling

   Author : Thomas Nygårds; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Experiments; Multiobjective Optimization; Modeling; Vibration dynamics; Washing machine; Suspensions; Semi-active control.; Automatic balancing;

   Abstract : The spinning process in a washing machine is a source of undesired vibrations and noise and may cause discomfort both to the user as well as for the machine itself due to vibrations which have impact on system lifetime, reliability of operation and capacity.The aim of this thesis is to develop mathematical and computational models of a washing machine of modern type and use these models for dynamics analysis and in optimization routines to make improvements of the machine mechanical design.
