• Wind turbine and ice breaking 

      Nilsen, Peter Tor Furseth (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-06-28)
      The arctic climate imposes the challenge of ice accretion on the blades of the wind turbine created by the atmospheric ice. Over time, the ice build-up causes ice shedding which can do structural damage to the wind turbine. The process involving ice breaking and shedding is not well understood. This document explains the mechanical properties of ice such as density, coefficient of thermal expansion, ...
    • Wire Gear for Small Rotary Actuator intended for Low Earth Orbit Applications. 

      Aarud, Vebjørn Orre (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-08-16)
      In this master thesis, a small rotary actuator with wire driveline intendent for space solutions is developed and tested. The replication of the environment with focus on surface friction, surface roughness, and more dynamical related features are considered. Features like temperature, vibration, radiation and more are excluded to limit the size. This because the field of interest in this iteration ...
    • Working Chair for Physically Disabled Children 

      Larsson, Ludvig (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-06-28)
      A product development process was initiated with the purpose of designing a saddle seat working chair for physically disabled children on behalf of Fysionord AB. An objectives tree diagram was made using Mindomo.com. Sub-functions in existing solutions were listed, leading to the discovery of four modules, constituting the working chair: footrest, seat, backrest and undercarriage with wheels. The ...
