1. Time-domain modelling of curve squeal: a fast model for one- and two-point wheel/rail contact
Sammanfattning : Curve squeal is a type of railway noise that may arise when a railway vehicle negotiates a relatively tight curve. A single frequency, corresponding to a wheel mode, dominates the radiated sound, which makes squeal a very tonal noise. LÄS MER
2. A Study of the Angle of Contact : with a special focus on John Wallis' conception of quantities and angles
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. Modelling of Moving Contact Lines in Two-Phase Flows
Sammanfattning : Moving contact line problems appear in many natural and industrial processes. A contact line is formed where the interface between two immiscible fluids meets a solid wall. Examples from everyday life include raindrops falling on a window and water bugs resting on water surfaces. LÄS MER
4. Numerical analysis of coalescence-induced jumping droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces
Sammanfattning : Bio-inspired superhydrophobic surfaces are used in numerous technological applications due to their self-cleaning ability. One of the several mechanisms reported in literature and responsible for self-cleaning is the phenomenon of coalescence-induced jumping of droplets from such surfaces. LÄS MER
5. Novel oil resistant cellulosic materials
Sammanfattning : The aim of this study has been to prepare and characterise oil resistant cellulosic materials, ranging from model surfaces to papers and aerogels. The cellulosic materials were made oil resistant by chemical and topographic modifications, based on surface energy, surface roughness and barrier approaches. LÄS MER
