  1. 11. Interfacial kinetic ski friction

    Författare :Leonid Kuzmin; Mats Tinnsten; Jonas Danvid; Mikael Jonsson; Roland Larsson; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ski glide; ski base; ski wax; hydrophobicity; UHMWPE; PTFE; topography; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : It is no doubt, that the ski glide over the snow is a very complicated object of research. However, ski glide is just a one area of many other areas of human knowledge. As a rule, the scientists and practitioners, who work in these areas, operate with some publicly expressed more or less solid hypotheses. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Tribology for Greener Combustion Engines : Scuffing in Marine Engines and a Lubricating Boric Acid Fuel Additive

    Författare :Petra Olander; Staffan Jacobson; Roland Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Friction; wear; lubrication; energy loss; atmospheric emissions; fuel efficiency; transport.; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims at increased knowledge in two fields of tribological research; both related to making currently used combustion engines greener. The first field regards the possibilities of using a boric acid fuel additive to increase fuel efficiency. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Surfaces Designed for High and Low Friction

    Författare :Ulrika Pettersson; Staffan Jacobson; Roland Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; tribology; friction; surface texture; surface design; low friction; high friction; boundary lubrication; DLC; embossing; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis comprises tribological studies of extremely well-defined surfaces of different designs. Both low-friction and high-friction surfaces were manufactured and experimentally evaluated.In the low-friction studies, lithography and anisotropic etching of silicon was first used as a texturing technique.

  4. 14. Tribological Aspects of Pneumatic Clutch Actuators

    Författare :Frida Riddar; Åsa Kassman Rudolphi; Roland Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wear; friction; PTFE transfer; anodised aluminium; NBR rubber lip seal; silicone grease; casting; extrusion; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Sammanfattning : A clutch actuator is used in a vehicle to transmit movement and force from the clutch pedal to the release bearing of the clutch. A pneumatic clutch actuator consists of an anodised aluminium cylinder, inside of which a piston, with a rubber lip seal and a PTFE guiding ring, slides. The system is lubricated with silicone grease before assembly. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Friction and wear in rolling and sliding contacts

    Författare :Christer Spiegelberg; Sören Andersson; Roland Larsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tribology; friction; wear; rolling and sliding contacts; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : Mechanical products are always expected to perform better, last longer, be more environmentally friendly and preferably cost less. Rolling and sliding contacts are found in many mechanical products, and friction and wear in the contacts have a direct impact on the products’ ability to meet these demands. LÄS MER
