Particle-laden pipe flows are ubiquitous in industrial applications. Examples are industries like dredging, slurry transport, and the transport of reactants and products in chemical industries. One of the most important factors in these transport processes is the friction coefficient which relates directly to the pumping power which is a...

Hydrostatic bearings are typically designed to operate on flat, parallel surfaces, but a flexible hydrostatic bearing that can adapt to uneven smooth surfaces would have broader applications. This thesis focuses on the challenges of implementing the whiffletree concept to support a large, deformable hydrostatic bearing on wavy surfaces, which...

The stability analysis of electromagnetic suspension system applied to Hyperloop in simplified two degrees of freedom system has been studied deeply where the track-beam is regarded as a point mass and the effects of velocity and beam are neglected. However, there is little reference on the study of the interaction between electromagnetic...

Dense suspensions can be found in various industrial and natural processes. A relatively new technique uses the principle of additive manufacturing to produce products from a wide variety of materials by printing with dense suspensions. To reach a high print quality the suspension rheology must be understood very well. Current knowledge about...

The Hyperloop is a high-speed means of transport, consisting of a bullet-shape vehicle travelling in a quasi-vacuum tube, electrically powered and moving through an electromagnetic levitating system. This allows the reduction of air resistance and wheel-rail contact friction, which translates in higher speeds for smaller power inputs. In the...

Conventional active seat controllers target and minimise vibration frequency bands that are uncomfortable to the passenger. These vibrations are in the form of road vibrations which are transmitted to the seat. In addition to fully compensating these vibrations, introducing certain target-induced vibrations in the seat with the help of active...

Last-mile delivery robots intended to operate on the sidewalk still require supervision because they are only semi-autonomous. If left to their own devices, they tend to cause undesired interactions. Our project proposes a design philosophy that can reduce the amount and severity of these interactions, improving the overall acceptance of...

In the search for new large-scale battery technologies that are cheap, safe and durable, in this research it is found that the state of the art semi-solid redox flow battery (“SSRFB”) technology shows perspective. Therefore, a novel, cheap and safe aqueous SSRFB design is introduced based on iron- and manganese hydroxide materials. This design...

On board of High Speed marine Craft (HSC), the crew and the passengers are exposed to high levels of Whole Body Vibrations (WBV) and large magnitude Repeated mechanical Shocks (RS) caused by the motions of the craft. The HSCs are typically 10 meters long, capable of reaching a maximum speed up to 50 knots and widely used by various maritime...

Plastic pollution in aquatic ecosystems is a global problem. Rivers transport large quantities of litter from land to the oceans. Plastics of different sizes and properties are widely present at various locations in river systems. Concerning macroplastics, previous studies mainly focussed on floating plastics, however, substantial parts of the...

Rivers are identified as main sources of plastic litter in oceans. About 65% of the plastic litter is buoyant in fresh waters, meaning it has the capability to float, making transport over rivers relatively easy. A better understanding of how plastic litter is transported via rivers is crucial. Both for quantification and mitigation of the...

Trials is a subdiscipline of mountain biking that consists of two variants: one practiced with a trials bicycle and one with a trials motorcycle. Though these two disciplines have the same basic requirements, there are clear distinctions in the technical sports gestures that the respective athletes employ. This is due to some fundamental...

In-Wheel Motor (IWM) vehicle design introduces a lot of benefits for manufacturers. However, it also decreases the ride comfort in the mid-range of perceivable frequencies. The Unsprung Negative Skyhook (UNS) damper control method offers ride comfort improvement in the same frequency range but has its limitations. This thesis proposes two...

ZF Friedrichshafen AG is developing its own active suspension system designed as a single unit per corner to optimize the dynamic behavior of a vehicle. The innovative active damper design integrates all the essential components into one damper unit, with the aim to facilitate implementation. This master thesis in cooperation with ZF...

The phenomenon of lateral migration of neutrally buoyant rigid spheres is studied experimentally for Poiseuille Flow. The study relied on the particle migration technique to capture the distribution of particles radial position at different flow parameters. In this thesis, the varying experimental parameters are flow Reynolds number and particle...

Sedimentation of particle suspensions is a relevant process to a variety of applications, such as the reclamation of land and chemical engineering systems. Direct numerical simulations of the settling of a single, two and multiple solid spheres under gravity in a square duct have been performed. The simulations involve 4 different Galileo...

Through Irish history, different spiritual demands in specific historical moments impacts on the legends of Hy-Brasil. In turn, the stories of Hy-Brasil reflects the history of Ireland through its possible position, appearances, items events, viewpoints gateways and monuments. The project is to use the history of Hy-Brasil, a mystical island of...

Surprisingly, liquid media of dispersed dry micron-sized particles can generate tremendous impact resistance, can grow solid protrusions when acoustically-vibrated and can cause a range of other peculiar phenomena to objects sinking in their interior, even though their appearance essentially remains ’liquid-like’. These heterogeneous mixtures of...

New floating wind turbine designs are needed to reduce production costs and to increase mass production feasibility. The TetraSpar floating wind turbine achieves these goals by being constructed using components highly suitable for standardization and industrialization. The design makes use of a suspended submerged counter weight to obtain a low...
