  1. 1. Turbo Charged Low Temperature Combustion - Experiments, Modeling and Control

    Author : Hans Aulin; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HCCI; PPC; CAI; NVO; low temperature combustion; torductor; ion current; control; modeling; combustion feedback; sensors;

    Abstract : Both the global economy and the society in general are dependent on the availability of reliable transportation. Most transportation technology involves the use of internal combustion engines in one way or another. READ MORE

  2. 2. A Methodology for Automation of Mechanized Forest Regeneration

    Author : Håkan Lideskog; Magnus Karlberg; Dan Bergström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computer Aided Design; Datorstödd maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : High quality forest regeneration is typically performed by a combination of site preparation through mounding and deep planting. These operations are performed either by mounders with subsequent manual planting, or by mechanized tree planting devices that creates mounds and, simultaneously, plant seedlings. READ MORE

  3. 3. Estimation of the In-Cylinder Air/Fuel Ratio of an Internal Combustion Engine by the Use of Pressure Sensors

    Author : Per Tunestål; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vakuumteknik; hydraulik; Maskinteknik; nonlinear; cylinder pressure; engine; least-squares; Mechanical engineering; estimation; hydraulics; vibration and acoustic engineering; vacuum technology; vibrationer; akustik; Motors and propulsion systems; Motorer; framdrivningssystem;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the use of cylinder pressure measurements for estimation of the in-cylinder air/fuel ratio in a spark ignited internal combustion engine. An estimation model which uses the net heat release profile for estimating the cylinder air/fuel ratio of a spark ignition engine is developed. READ MORE

  4. 4. Microwave sensors for scanning of sawn timber

    Author : Nils Lundgren; Olle Hagman; Gary Schajer; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microwave scanning; wood; density; moisture content; strength grading; finite element; Electronic measurement and instrumentation; Elektronisk mät- och apparatteknik; Träteknik;

    Abstract : A microwave imaging sensor that measures the signal transmitted through a board was investigated with respect to the ability to predict the distribution of moisture and density in sawn lumber. Furthermore, the response from the sensor was related to strength properties of the boards. READ MORE

  5. 5. Human motion prediction using wearable sensors and machine Learning

    Author : Binbin Su; Elena M. Gutierrez-Farewik; Christian Smith; Neil Cronin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wearable sensors; gait segmentation; lower limb angular velocity; machine learning; deep learning; reinforcement learning; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : Accurately measuring and predicting human movement is important in many contexts, such as in rehabilitation and the design of assistive devices. Thanks to the development and availability of a wide variety of sensors, scientists study human movement in many settings and capture characteristic properties unique to individuals as well as to larger study populations.
