This thesis regards the efficiency of a planetary gear train. The analysis only accounts for the power losses in the gear meshing. Tip radius, pressure angles and profile shifts are altered and the results show higher efficiency due to tooth modifications.

Permafrost regions cover approximately a quarter of the Northern Hemisphere and thawing has been recorded in many different locations. The thawing process is likely to continue given that the Northern Latitudes will experience increased warming, which is known as the Arctic Amplification Factor. Changes in permafrost regions can cause changes in hydrology, biogeochemical cycles and ecosystems. Fur

The aim of this thesis was to develop a general solution for a winder application by examining the possibility to control the spreader axis movement with an electronic cam. The electronic cam synchronizes the spreader axis with the winder axis by determining where the spreader axis should be positioned in relation to the winder axis position. A prototype was built to recreate the application scena

One of the most important OCA properties is similarity between business cycles (Masson and Taylor, 1993, p. 274). In the debate preceding EMU critiques argued that the European countries were subject t

Reverse logistics is the opposite route from the usual supply chain and the literature stresses the importance of designing a reverse logistics network, where reverse distribution is essential to reach efficiency. The purpose of this study aims to ela
