  1. 1. A coupling method using CFD, radiative models and a surface model to simulate the micro-climate

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Författare :Joseph Vernier; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Computational Fluid Dynamics; Fluid Mechanics; Numerics; Micro-climate modeling; Radiation; Crop modeling; Photovoltaic panels;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing demand for energy, depletion of fossil fuels, rising global warming, and greenhouse gas emissions have stimulated the need for widespread development and adoption of renewable energy sources (RES) worldwide. Among these sources, solar energy has emerged as a major contender to meet the growing demand. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Simulation Model for Forestry Ground and Vegetation Damage

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Författare :Elias Hökfors; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Forest ground; forest machines; soils; soil mechanics; simulators; Unreal Engine; AGX Terrain;

    Sammanfattning : Training simulators are valuable tools in education of forest machine operators. One important part of the education is to learn about damages occurring due to the forest machines and how they can be avoided. Two types of damages are especially severe, soil compaction and formation of wheel ruts. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Improvements of ground anchors for Better Shelter

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Författare :Joel Olsson; Richard Härlin; [2020]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This report is part of a bachelor’s degree project in solid mechanics at KTH, Stockholm. It is performed by two students on behalf of the social enterprise Better Shelter, which provides shelters for people displaced by war and natural disasters. LÄS MER

  5. 4. CPTu Configuration Impact on Evaluated Undrained Shear Strength

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Författare :Mårten Mjöberg; Axel Stenfors; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Cone Penetration Testing; Fields trials; Soil mechanics; Evaluated undrained shear strength.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis evaluates the commonly used geotechnical probing method CPTu, on how different probe configurations impact the resulting evaluated undrained shear strength in soft clay deposits, in comparison to each other and laboratory methods. This is done by performing field investigations on Lindefältet, Södermanlands län, Sweden. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Coarse-Graining Fields in Particle-Based Soil Models

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Författare :Björn Ahlman; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Soil mechanics; Soil compaction; Continuum mechanics; Discrete Element Method; Coarse graining; Computational physics;

    Sammanfattning : In soil, where trees and crops grow, heavy vehicles shear and compact the soil, leading to reduced plant growth and diminished nutrient recycling. Computer simulations offer the possibility to improve the understanding of these undesired phenomena. LÄS MER
