Abstract:
GPS and Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) are increasingly used for positioning and attitude determination in a wide range of applications. Until recently, the very high cost of the INS components limited their use to high accuracy navigation and geo-referencing applications. Over the last few years, a number of low cost inertial sensors have come on the market. Although they exhibit large errors, GPS measurements can be used to correct the INS and sensor errors to provide high accuracy real-time navigation. The integration of GPS and INS is usually achieved using a Kalman filter which is a so

The pavement's contribution to tire-pavement friction is referred to as skid resistance and is provided by pavement microtexture and macrotexture. The amount of skid resistance depreciates over time due to the polishing action of traffic, and for this reason, the skid resistance should be monitored with friction testing equipment.

This doctoral thesis consists of three essays. In the first essay I investigate the presence of productivity convergence in eight regional pulp and paper industries of U.S. and Canada over the period of 1971-2005. Expectation of productivity convergence in the pulp and paper industries of Canadian provinces and of the states of its southern neighbour is high since they are trading partners with fairly high level of exchanges in both pulp and paper products. Moreover, they share a common production technology that changed very little over the last century. I supplement the North-American region

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to study if inexpensive vibration monitoring systems could be suitable for condition monitoring of rolling element bearings and if they could be able to detect bearing defects at an early stage. As a starting point the following set of requirements for the system have been defined: the system should be priced below 100 €, it should be able to measure the vibrations reaching up to 10 000 Hz frequencies and the amplitude resolution of the system should be at minimum 16-bits. The ability of the system to be part of internet of things (IoT) is also seen as a positive thin
