2. 1. Model calibration methods for mechanical systems with local nonlinearities

   Author : Yousheng Chen; Andreas Linderholt; Thomas Abrahamsson; Gaëtan Kerschen; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; model calibration; finite element modelling; nonlinear structural dynamics; pre-test planning; multi-sinusoidal excitation; vibrational testing; cross validation; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

   Abstract : Most modern product development utilizes computational models. With increasing demands on reducing the product development lead-time, it becomes more important to improve the accuracy and efficiency of simulations. READ MORE

4. 2. Application of Automated Non-contact Resonance Testing for Low Temperature Behavior of Asphalt Concrete

   Author : Abiy Bekele; Nils Ryden; Safwat Said; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Resonance testing; stiffness modulus; asphalt concrete; Non-contact excitation; Resonance frequency; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

   Abstract : Impact resonance testing is a well-documented non-destructive testing method and its applications on asphalt concrete have also been implemented successfully. The test is carried out manually by inducing an impact in order to excite the test specimen and taking measurements of the vibrational response. READ MORE

5. 3. Vibrational Response Reconstruction and Model Validation

   Author : Anders Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; error metrics; response reconstruction; controllability; rig test; drive signal identification; inverse problems; model validation; state space; model updating;

   Abstract : In this thesis, laboratory response reconstruction andcomputational model validation is investigated. The former concernsapplications of control theory as the objective is to reproduce acertain loading for a known component, while the latter concernsoptimization of a parameterized model as the objective is to modifya computational model to mimic a certain component's behavior.

6. 4. Molecular Insight into Ion-Specific Interactions : Vibrational Sum Frequency Study of the Carboxylic Acid Moiety

   Author : Adrien Sthoer; Eric Tyrode; Paul Cremer; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; specific ion effects; carboxylic acid; fatty acid Langmuir monolayer; vibrational sum frequency spectroscopy; VSFS; Electrical double layer;

   Abstract : Ion specific effects at charged interfaces find numerous applications in colloidal sciences and play a vital role in many biological processes. Despite having been studied for over a century, starting with the work of F. Hofmeister in the 1880s, a comprehensive molecular  understanding remains elusive. READ MORE

7. 5. Cavity enhanced optical sensing

   Author : Isak Silander; Ove Axner; Aleksandra Foltynowicz; Jong Chow; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optical resonators; Fiber Laser; Parametric oscillators; Optical frequency comb; Infrared; Spectroscopy heterodyne; Spectroscopy molecular; Absorption; Dispersion; Lineshapes; Optical standards and testing; Refractivety measurements;

   Abstract : An optical cavity comprises a set of mirrors between which light can be reflected a number of times. The selectivity and stability of optical cavities make them extremely useful as frequency references or discri­mi­nators. READ MORE
