The traffic congestion problem has become a significant challenge for green shipping of inland waterway transport, resulting in long waiting times and high carbon emissions. Several studies have been conducted to optimize the use of the passing facilities and lockage efficiency, but the improvement of the ship appointment system has not been investigated. In this paper, we formulate new mathematical ...

This thesis presents an overview of the different types of hybrid electric vehicle structures and basic guidelines regarding choice of components. The simulation model of a hybrid electric vehicle was created for this thesis to investigate the impact on fuel efficiency in relation to rolling resistance coefficient and vehicle weight. Although the model is not designed for optimal engine operation, ...

Pyrolysis is a thermochemical decomposition of organic compounds such as High-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastics. The product of the HDPE pyrolysis is usually diesel with other wastes (such as carbon black, etc.). A pyrolysis reaction is essentially a decomposition reaction performed at elevated temperatures in the absence of oxygen. This work aims to describe some of the primary driving reactions ...

The large-scale wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) based on doubly-fed induction generators (DFIGs) are very popular in recent years due to the numerous technical and economic benefits. With the increasing penetration level of wind energy, the latest grid codes require the DFIG-based WECSs to remain connected to the grid under grid fault scenarios and deliver the required reactive power into ...

This thesis will continue the work done by Sethuram Balakrishnan in his master thesis “Duct fanned shielding design for quadrotors”. It includes studies of integrating Balakrishnan’s solution to the outer structure of the DJI Flame Wheel F450 Quadrotor in order to save weight. A report with preliminary work will cover investigation of existing solutions and technology, setting design requirements ...

Good and efficient care for our elderly is a major concern in our ever aging popu- lation. The elderly’s greatest fear is falling to the ground, not being able to get up or get help. Use of Bluetooth motion sensors and appropriate agents can help alert for in the event of a person falling. In this master thesis an experimental sensor rig has been created together with an android application which ...

Generating structured music using deep learning methods with symbolic representation is challenging due to the complex relationships between musical elements that define a musical composition. Symbolic representation of music, such as MIDI or sheet music, can help overcome some of these challenges by encoding the music in a format that allows manipulation and analysis. However, the symbolic ...

The location problem of treatment and service facilities in municipal solid waste (MSW) management system is of significant importance due to the socioeconomic and environmental concerns. The consideration of waste treatment costs, environmental impact, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, social fairness as well as other relevant aspects should be simultaneously taken into account when a MSW management ...

Reverse logistics has received more and more attention during the past decade due to the increasing public awareness of sustainable development. Because of the fluctuation in both quantity and quality of the reverse material flow, design and planning of reverse logistics network is much more complicated compared with the forward ones. Therefore, it is important to develop decision support tools for ...
