THESIS PROPOSAL
Digital Twin of a Drone Launcher used in Sea Rescuing Operations
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS) is a voluntary organization for sea rescuing operations along the Swedish coast and greater lakes. The personnel at SSRS face a multitude of different scenarios while in rescue operation, which requires different types of rescue gear and resources. SSRS and collaborating partners from industry and academia are developing a drone system which shall aid in sea rescuing operations by providing valuable data of the accident. The purpose is for the personnel to receive information on what rescue gear and other resources to bring before leaving shore.
When not in use, the plane-like drone is stored in an enclosure on the drone launching unit. The purpose of this study is to develop a digital twin of the drone launcher to enable shorter lead times and higher quality when developing new features. This can be done by development of:
- Digital representation/simulation model of the drone launcher.
- Integration between the control software and digital twin.
- Integration of the digital twin into the automated testing environment.
Development of the digital twin will require a mix of competences ranging from modeling and simulation to software development.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for 2 students with a background in mechatronics, software engineering, or equivalent program, who wish to conduct their thesis during the spring of 2024. Applicants shall have experience in modeling and simulation, software development and an interest in learning more about test automation. Applicants shall also have experience from programming languages such as C++ or Python, and it is meritorious to have previous experience from or knowledge of Continuous Integration, Delivery or Deployment, Jenkins, Git and Test Automation.
