The thesis introduces the design of a test device for preassembled mechatronic cylindrical locks. The device is designed to test the mechanical and electronic parts which ensure minimisation of loss caused by poor preassembling or defect due to electronic parts. Since the defect will only come to realisation upon the complete product testing, the time of complete dismounting, exchange and assembly of the mechatronic parts would be saved and also time required for the final test of the whole product on the device would be saved.

Direct Digital Frequency Synthesis (DDFS) is a method of producing an analog waveform, usually a sine wave, by generating a time varying signal in digital form a then performing a digital to analog conversion. Because operations within a DDFS device are primarily digital, it can offer fast switching between output frequencies, fine frequency resolution and operation over a broad spectrum of frequencies.

Afin de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre et le coût du transport maritime, l'utilisation des cerfs-volants comme système de propulsion auxiliaire des navires est prometteuse. Pour estimer les performances et l’opérabilité d’un navire tracté par cerf-volant, une modélisation dynamique du système est alors mise en oeuvre. Une modélisation analytique de cerf-volant est utilisée. Ce modèle néglige la masse du cerf-volant et suppose que les lignes sont droites et indéformables. Ces hypothèses conduisent à un modèle cinématique dépendant du coefficient de portance et de la finesse aérodynamique. Une évolution linéaire des coefficients aérodynamiques en fonction de la courbure de la trajectoire de vol est proposée. Par ailleurs, en développant un modèle quasi analytique de ligne, il est montré qu’à partir de 2 m.s-1 de vent relatif que l’hypothèse de ligne droite est raisonnable. En se basant sur un modèle de ligne, un critère analytique de vitesse de vent minimum permettant un vol quasi-statique est présenté. Dans le but de résoudre l’ensemble des termes d’interaction entre le cerf-volant et le navire, un modèle linéarisé de tenue à la mer temporelle est développé. Le produit de convolution de la réponse impulsionnelle du navire est calculé avec des systèmes d’états. Cependant comme celle-ci représente mal les mouvements horizontaux des navires, le modèle développé est alors couplé à un modèle de manoeuvrabilité. Pour étudier les interactions entre le cerf-volant et le navire un couplage monolithique et un couplage dissocié sont comparés. Le couplage dissocié néglige l’influence des mouvements du navire sur le vol du cerf-volant. En cas de mer calme, les résultats obtenus par les deux types de couplage sont très proches. En cas de houle régulière les mouvements du navire sont principalement causés par la houle. Le couplage monolithique montre qu’un réseau de sous-harmoniques basse fréquence apparait alors dans le spectre d’excitation du navire. La fréquence fondamentale des sous-harmoniques est donnée par la différence entre la fréquence de vague et la fréquence de l’harmonique la plus proche de l’excitation du kite. Quand cette différence est suffisamment petite, un phénomène d’accrochage apparait. Ce phénomène est bénéfique pour le cerf-volant et le navire quand le décalage des harmoniques d'excitation correspond à une augmentation. Par ailleurs, une étude de la stabilité de route montre qu'il est nécessaire de contrôler activement le safran. / In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and shipping costs, the use of kites as an auxiliary propulsion device for ships is promising. In order to estimate the performance and the operability of a kite-towed vessel, a dynamic modeling of the system is implemented. A classical kite modeling is used. This model neglects the mass of the kite and assumes straight and inelastic tethers. These assumptions lead to a kinematic model depending on the lift coefficient and the aerodynamic lift to drag ration angle. A linear evolution of these aerodynamic coefficients as a function of the curvature of the flight path is proposed. In addition, by developing a quasi-analytical line model, it is shown that from 2 m.s-1 of relative wind the straight tether assumption is reasonable. Based on the tether model, an analytical criterion assessing the minimum wind speed to enable a quasi-static kite flight is developed. To solve all the interaction terms between the kite and the ship, a time domain seakeeping model based on the linearized ship equation of motion assuming a potential flow is developed. The convolution product of the impulse response of the ship is computed with state-space systems. However, since horizontal ship motions are not well represented by such theories, a coupling with a maneuvering model is presented.Comparisons to experimental data tests show good agreements. To study the interactions between the kite and the ship, a monolithic coupling and a dissociated coupling are compared. The dissociated coupling neglects the influence of ship motions on the kite flight. In a calm water case, results obtained by the two types of coupling are very close. In regular waves, ship motions are dominated by the wave influence. Thus, with the monolithic coupling, a network of low frequency subharmonic appears in the kite excitation spectrum. The fundamental frequency of the subharmonic is given by the difference between the wave frequency and the frequency of the nearest kite excitation harmonic. When this difference is small enough, a lock-in phenomenon appears. This phenomenon is a benefit for the kite and the ship when the shift of the excitation harmonics corresponds to an increase. Furthermore, a course keeping stability study shows that the rudder needs to be actively controlled.

In step with the development of digitalization, information technology has created an opportunity for retail organizations to offer new transaction mechanisms to their customers that can be used to their advantage and benefit value creation. Hence, many retail organizations today work to differentiate themselves by establishing omnichannel practices in which the company’s digital and physical channels are integrated to create a seamless and convenient customer experience. The aim of this study is to produce new knowledge regarding the value generated by omnichannel practices, and is based on a qualitative research method in which a multi-case exploration of six different companies has been carried out. The empirical data consist of nine semi-structured interviews with the organizations involved as well as on observations of the organizations’ omnichannel practices. Based on the results of the study, it is shown that omnichannel providers manage to create value by activating all business model themes, i.e. efficiency, novelty, lock-in and complementarities, in different ways and to varying degrees. It is also noted that various retail organizations have different ease of activating the four different value-creating sources and that this value creation is dependent on the retail organization's main activities and target group.

Aim: This review aims to describe the existing evidence base for using elevated vacuum suspension and pin-lock suspension systems in regards to fluctuations of limb volume, balance, effect on gait (spatial and temporal, kinematic, and kinetic data), and in-socket movement (pistoning and transverse forces). Background: There is a growing population with a TT amputation thus there is an increased demand for TT prosthetic solutions. There are a multitude of different suspension methods with different drawbacks and benefits. This review investigates elevated vacuum suspension (EVS) and pin-lock suspension systems. Method: A systematic search was conducted in Medline, PubMed, and Scopus, and included or excluded articles per the eligibility criteria. The chosen studies will be carefully read and critically appraised for their quality of evidence. Results: 13 articles were found that matched the eligibility criteria and aim, 5 articles included pin-lock suspension systems and 9 included EVS systems. 3 looked at limb volume fluctuation, 1 at balance, 4 at in-socket movement (transverse forces and pistoning), and 8 at the quality of gait (temporal and spatial, kinematic, and kinetic). Conclusion: Several of the articles included in this review indicate that EVS results in better performance on balance tests, higher velocity, and a more stable residual limb volume than other suspension systems. Furthermore, it was shown that prosthetic users with an EVS had more normal values in their ROM during gait and less in-socket movement. / Syfte: Den här litteraturöversikten syftar till att beskriva den befintliga evidensbasen för användning av aktivt vakuum-suspension och pinnlås suspension med avseende på fluktuationer i extremitetvolym, balans, effekt på gång (spatial och temporal, kinematisk, och kinetiska data) och rörelse i hylsan (vertikala och tvärkrafter). Bakgrund: Det finns en ökande population som genomgår en transtibial amputation alltså finns en ökad efterfrågan på transtibiala-proteslösningar. Det finns en mängd olika suspensionsmetoder med olika nackdelar och fördelar. Denna recension undersöker eleverad vakuum-suspesnion och pin-lås-suspension. Metod: En systematisk sökning genomfördes i Medline, PubMed och Scopus och inkluderade eller exkluderade artiklar enligt behörighetskriterierna. De valda studierna kommer att läsas noggrant och kritiskt bedömas för deras metodologiska kvalité. Resultat: 13 artiklar hittades som matchade behörighetskriterierna och syftet. 5 artiklar undersökte pin-lås-suspension och 9 undersökte aktivt vakuum-suspension. 3 tittade på volymfluktuationer i extremiteterna, 1 på balans, 4 på rörelse i socket (vertikala och tvärkrafter) och 8 på kvaliteten på gång (temporal och rumslig, kinematisk och kinetisk). Slutsats: Denna litteraturöversikt visade att aktiv vakuum resulterar i att prestera bättre vid balanstester, har högre hastighet och en stabilare extremitet volym än andra suspensionsmetoder. Vidare fann man att protesanvändare med ett aktivt vakuum hade fler normala värden i sitt rörelseomfång under gång och har mindre vertikala krafter i hylsan.
