Imagine using your expertise to shape sustainable transport and infrastructure solutions for the future. If you seek to make a difference on a global scale, working with next-gen technologies and the sharpest collaborative teams, then we could be a perfect match. About the thesis work For this thesis work you will join the department of VPD (virtual product development). We are located at site Braås, part of Volvo Construction Equipment and home of the articulated hauler. VPD works with virtual product development in the areas of vehicle simulation, structural and vibration analysis, and data analytics. We have a great interest in mathematics, physics, and problem-solving. ### Background Wheel loaders at Volvo CE use sensors to monitor key machine parameters and provide feedback to the controller. On existing machines, bucket load can be estimated at certain machine positions. However, load and reaction force information throughout the complete short loading cycle, particularly during material interaction and excavation, is not currently available. This thesis will explore methods to estimate bucket loads and forces throughout the loading cycle using the machine’s existing sensors and the wheel loader’s kinematics. A complete wheel loader simulation model is also available to support development and verification of the proposed methods. Your assignment will include: Develop kinematic and mathematical models of the wheel loader’s lifting framework. Pre-process the data collected from simulations and physical measurements. Develop and verify load-estimation methods using simulation data. This thesis offers the opportunity to work with wheel loader sensor data, machine kinematics, and simulation, with the goal of improving load estimation during real operating conditions. ### Suitable Background Master in Vehicle dynamics, whereas Adams, Matlab and Simulink as programming language. ### Thesis Level Master Language: Swedish or English Starting Date: February 2027 Number of Students: 1-2 Last application day: November 22 For further information, please contact: Manoranjan Kumar, Virtual Product Development manoranjan.kumar@volvo.com Welcome with your application!
