    <title language="eng">Using MS Excel as solver in ansys workbench for the static and fatigue assessment in accordance with the FKM guideline</title>
    <abstract language="eng">The FKM guideline offers a structured and detailed framework for static and fatigue strength assessment for steel, aluminum, and cast iron components. This study aimed to investigate Microsoft Office Excel’s use of mechanical components’ static and fatigue strength verification for non-welded and welded components and its integration into Ansys Workbench. An FKM Excel tool was developed to calculate the assessment and tested against the FKM guideline example. A detailed comparison is made between the results of the FKM Excel tool and the FKM guideline example. Moreover, relevant stress and stress gradient values were obtained using Ansys Parametric Design Language (APDL). This investigation has revealed that the methodology is very efficient and faster. Furthermore, it makes it possible to use for proof strength. This research implies that there is a possibility of obtaining further automating processes in excel and Ansys Workbench.</abstract>

    <title language="eng">Designing a Launching System for a Robotic Boat</title>
    <abstract language="eng">Based on the learning in this degree program, the author was tasked with developing a transport system for the current research boat, called Roboboat. The aim was to examine the components and reverse engineer them to calculate the mechanics of the boat. Because no design or measurement data were available, this thesis began by modeling the boat. After modeling, a literature review was conducted, and a launch system was designed with a focus on utility and cost-effectiveness. This report presents the design process, calculates the stress and strain on the design elements, and presents the concept of a launch system.  Finally, the stability of the boat is calculated, and the mathematical validation of Roboboat is presented.</abstract>
