Effekter av individualiserad snabbhetsuthållighets träning jämfört med smålagsspel i fotboll

Olsson, Karl January 2016 (has links)
Background: Small-sided games are frequently used as a training method in today´s football. The importance of the ability to perform high-intensity running is increasing and small-sided games may not lead to the required improvement of this ability. It might be necessary to add speed-endurance training to obtain the high-intensity running. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate which of the training methods; small-sided games or speed-endurance training, leads to the highest performance improvements in three football-specific tests. Measures and Methods: The study was an intervention study where 31 male football players participated. They were randomized in to two groups which performed either speed-endurance training (SEP) (n=16) or small-sided games (SSG) 6 vs 6 (n=15). The study lasted four weeks and eleven sessions in total. Baseline tests and posttraining test were conducted in Yo-Yo IR2, Arrowhead agility test and Repeated sprint 30 meters. Result: SEP demonstrated an 17 % higher increase in testresults than SSG in Yo-Yo IR2. No significant difference between the groups were observed in the other tests. Conclusion: Small-sided games is a training method which entails football-specific training load. It might be necessary to add speed-endurance training which can lead to higher performance improvments in Yo-Yo IR2.

Automatisk konfiguration av orkestreringssystem

Nordgren, Silas January 2021 (has links)
När förutsättningarna för ett orkestrerat system förändras blir dess orkestreringskonfiguration inaktuell och måste uppdateras (Delsing, 2017). Ofta är denna konfiguration manuell. Syftet med den här studien är att utforska hur konfiguration av orkestreringssystem kan automatiseras med hjälp av ett konfigurationsverktyg.  Under arbetets gång har ett verktyg som kan konfigureras för att tillsammans med metadata om tjänsteinstanser generera en ny orkestreringskonfiguration utvecklats och demonstrerats genom att presenteras för utvecklare. Verktyget kan användas för att automatiskt anpassa konfigurationen hos ett orkestreringssystem efter ändrade förutsättningar.

On the Tightness of the Balanced Truncation Error Bound with an Application to Arrowhead Systems

Reiter, Sean Joseph 28 January 2022 (has links)
Balanced truncation model reduction for linear systems yields reduced-order models that satisfy a well-known error bound in terms of a system's Hankel singular values. This bound is known to hold with equality under certain conditions, such as when the full-order system is state-space symmetric. In this work, we derive more general conditions in which the balanced truncation error bound holds with equality. We show that this holds for single-input, single-output systems that exhibit a generalized type of state-space symmetry based on the sign parameters corresponding to a system's Hankel singular values. We prove an additional result that shows how to determine this state-space symmetry from the arrowhead realization of a system, if available. In particular, we provide a formula for the sign parameters of an arrowhead system in terms of the off-diagonal entries of its arrowhead realization. We then illustrate these results with an example of an arrowhead system arising naturally in power systems modeling that motivated our study. / Master of Science / Mathematical modeling of dynamical systems provides a powerful means for studying physical phenomena. Due the complexities of real-world problems, many mathematical models face computational difficulties due to the costs of accurate modeling. Model-order reduction of large-scale dynamical systems circumvents this by approximating the large-scale model with a ``smaller'' one that still accurately describes the problem of interest. Balanced truncation model reduction for linear systems is one such example, yielding reduced-order models that satisfy a tractable upper bound on the approximation error. This work investigates conditions in which this bound is known to hold with equality, becoming an exact formula for the error in reduction. We additionally show how to determine these conditions for a special class of linear dynamical systems known as arrowhead systems, which arise in special applications of network modeling. We provide an example of one such system from power systems modeling that motivated our study.

Interfacing Digital and Physical Twins with a Microservice Architecture

Wintercorn, Oskar January 2022 (has links)
Throughout history, humans have proven to develop and improve their quality of life constantly. Incorporating mechanical principles into otherwise manual labor was one such aspect. Today, introducing mechanization to the industry and steam power is regarded as the first industrial revolution. Since then, a second and a third have followed, introducing concepts such as electricity, automation, computers, and computerization. Finally, in 2011 the fourth industrial revolution was introduced as Industry 4.0 by a project started in Germany, which considers digitalization. Industry 4.0 uses concepts such as Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), the Internet of Things (IoT), and cloud computing. The goal of these concepts is to be able to further the capabilities of automation in the industry, creating smart factories. A problem experienced today when making changes to the production line is that an immense amount of hard coding is required for the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) controlling the system as well as for the system controlling the factory. The Eclipse Arrowhead Framework addresses these issues by applying a particular set of parameters to all systems within the IT infrastructure. The Arrowheadframework offers parameters such as orchestrator, authorization, and a service registry to each system incorporated within the framework. By applying this, the System of Systems (SoS) and the parameters provided by the Arrowhead framework create a local cloud. In doing so, each system within a factory belongs to its local cloud, building a factory made of a cluster of local clouds. By applying the ideas of Industry 4.0, a proof of concept is created, showing that today’s industry would benefit from using the concepts stated above with digital twins. The thesis explores and proves that, with the help of digital twins, today’s industry can cut down on manufacturing process development. In addition, it reduces the time it takes to apply changes to the production line by enabling machine learning to facilitate human interaction. A model factory created by fischertechnik is used, together with a PLC, as the physical twin in this master thesis. In addition, using Siemens Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software NX, a digital twin is created; this digital twin will communicate with the physical twin to simulate the behavior of the physical twin in real-time. A server has been created and is acting as a hub of communication for both of the twins. The use of the digital twin to communicate with the physical twin will enable tremendous advances in automation regarding industry 4.0.

Scalable Predictive Maintenance through the Eclipse Arrowhead Framework

Johansson, Anton January 2022 (has links)
With the rise of Industry 4.0 and the 4:th industrial revolution withthe Internet of Things, infrastructures have become more prevalent to connect and monitor many different systems within an industrial set-ting. With many candidates for this IoT infrastructure, there is a need to evaluate the different candidates to determine the different strengthsand weaknesses of the infrastructure.This thesis investigates the use of the Eclipse Arrowhead framework in the application of scalable infrastructure used for predictive mainte-nance. This investigation is conducted by converting an existing pre-dictive maintenance implementation that is using Amazon Web Services as the IoT infrastructure into a predictive maintenance implementationusing the Eclipse Arrowhead framework as the infrastructure.This design science artifact which results from this thesis shows that the Eclipse Arrowhead framework is suitable for a scalable infrastruc-ture though some shortcomings of the framework were found during the implementation. And though it is a suitable infrastructure, the usage ofthe framework should depend on the specific needs of the infrastructureand should not be used as a “one size fits all” solution.

CAN-bus system for vehicle actuation and data logging with Arrowhead Framework

Månsson, Andreas January 2019 (has links)
The use of micro controllers in automotive application have exploded during the last half century. What was initially a set of mechanical systems that formed a vehicle have now become a collection of computers on wheels. The reason is quite obvious: micro controllers use several inputs to optimize the performance of systems; for example an engine control or an active safety system.The different inputs and outputs to these electronic units (electronic control unit, ECU) are of interest to other such units thereby justifying the need of inter-ECU communications. The Controller Area Network (CAN) bus has been developed to facilitate this communication. It is a message based protocol and is very resilient. It is however relatively slow and limited in terms of security. Security is assured only by trying to keep the message identification tags confidential and the bus physically separated to other network. A couple of decades ago our society embraced the Information Technology (IT) revolution. It allowed people to have extensive access to information. From a technology point of view, IT is based on the use of the Internet, which has been initially designed by the US military for robust applications. It is fast and its security is sufficiently high that we use it to communicate with our banks where we keep all our life savings.The aim of this thesis has been to combine these technologies such that a vehicle with a CAN bus could offer services (just like a bank does) over the Internet. The goal then is to transform a CAN bus to become a service provider over the Internet. The services are the broadcasted CAN messages made available to authorized interested parties and can post information and actuations to the ECUs connected to the CAN bus. A vehicle in that case becomes a cyber physical system. To make this transformation possible, we use the open source Arrowhead Framework, which is based on a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). The available services are made known via a Service Registry and Orchestration service prosumers. Concretely, the work in this thesis project has been to develop (i.e., to design and implement) a CAN service prosumer that is Arrowhead Framework compliant. It has been successfully tested with another service prosumer, which is an Arrowhead Framework compliant data logger. The driving motivation for the thesis project are construction equipment machines, such as wheel loaders and excavators, which are vehicles with booms or arms. The aspiration is that they not only drive autonomously but also dig autonomously. This ambition shall require large amount of data to be exchanged, something that a CAN bus cannot handle.

Data Acquisition using Arrowhead Framework for Condition Based Maintenance of Industrial Equipment

Jansson Högberg, Johan January 2019 (has links)
As Industry 4.0 and Internet of Things are established across factories and enterprises, the interest for learning more about these concepts and the possibilities they provide for condition based maintenance is expressed by a factory in Sweden. By addressing the aspects of Internet of Things and Industry 4.0, a system for performing data acquisition from sensors in an industrial environment is developed using Arrowhead Framework. This framework is evaluated around its suitability for this kind of application, and regarding what the framework may provide to the factory compared to other solutions and systems. A solution featuring a system based on Arrowhead Framework is developed, implemented, and briefly tested. The system is successful in performing data acquisition, and Arrowhead Framework is considered a viable option that may be used to provide a system tailored for different purposes, presumed that the factory is prepared to allocate resources on developing a solution around it.

Integration of OPC Unified Architecture with IIoT Communication Protocols in an Arrowhead Translator

Rönnholm, Jesper January 2018 (has links)
This thesis details the design of a protocol translator between the industrial-automation protocol OPC UA, and HTTP. The design is based on the architecture of the protocol translator of the Arrowhead framework, and is interoperable with all of its associated protocols. The design requirements are defined to comply with a service-oriented architecture (SOA) and RESTful interaction through HTTP, with minimal requirement of the consuming client to be familiar with OPC UA semantics. Effort is put into making translation as transparent as possible, but limits the scope of this work to exclude a complete semantic translation. The solution presented in this thesis satisfies structural- and foundational interoperability, and bridges interaction to be independent of OPC UA services. The resulting translator is capable of accessing the content of any OPC UA server with simple HTTP-requests, where addressing is oriented around OPC UA nodes.
