  1. 21. Genotoxic hazards in the rubber industry : application of short-term tests in work environment analyses

    Författare :Agneta Rannug; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Excess mortality from a number of different types of cancer has been associated with work in the rubber industry. The aim of the present study - using short-term tests for mutagenicity - was to identify potentially hazardous additives and process fumes to which workers are exposed. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Performance of Isotropic Magnetorheological Rubber Materials

    Författare :Mattias Lokander; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Magnetorheological (MR) rubber materials are controllablecomposites that consist of magnetically polarisable particlesin a rubber matrix. They belong to a group of so-called "smartmaterials" that have seen an increased interest recently. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Detecting Inclusions in a Silicone Rubber Phantom Using Standing Lamb Waves and Multiple Frequency Footprints

    Författare :Ulf G Jonsson; Britt Andersson; Olof A Lindahl; Jacques Ohayon; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Piezoelectric; Silicone rubber; Impedance; Resonance; Lamb waves; Phantom; Electronics; elektronik;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis deals with one major question: is it possible, using one piezoelectric sensor/vibrator, to detect a hard inclusion in a silicone rubber phantom? The question was approached with an open mind and the task was subdivided into three clearly identifiable parts: characterization of the piezoelectric sensor/vibrator (paper I), creating a model of the visco-elastic properties of a tissue-like material (phantom) in contact with the sensor/vibrator (paper II), and to detect the presence of a hard inclusion in the phantom (paper III). All vibrations of the sensor/vibrator and phantom was modeled using a finite element method (FEM). LÄS MER

    Författare :Jukka Hyttinen; Lars Drugge; Jenny Jerrelind; James Busfield; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Truck tyre; PRF; filler-reinforced rubber; ambient temperature; rubber testing; constitutive modelling; parametrisation; rolling resistance; load cell; Fletcher-Gent effect; Payne effect; Lastbilsdäck; PRF; förstärkande fyllmedel; gummi; omgivningstemperatur; gummiprovning; konstitutiv modellering; parametrisering; rullmotstånd; lastcell; Fletcher-Gent effekt; Payne effekt; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Truck transport offers a versatile way to ship goods in regional, long haulage and urban applications. However, the heavy truck sector accounts for 6 % of total greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union. Therefore, there is a need for a substantial reduction of these emissions to secure the sustainability of Earth for future generations. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Truck tyre rolling resistance : Experimental testing and constitutive modelling of tyres

    Författare :Jukka Hyttinen; Lars Drugge; Jenny Jerrelind; James Busfield; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Truck tyre; PRF; filler reinforced rubber; ambient temperature; rubber testing; parametrisation; Finite-element simulation; Lastbildäck; PRF; gummi; förstärkande fyllmedel; effekt av omgivningstemperatur; gummiprovning; parametrisering; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Global warming sets a high demand to reduce the CO2 emissions of vehicles. In the European Union heavy-duty road transports account for 6 % of the total greenhouse gases and one of the main factors affecting these emissions is related to the rolling resistance of tyres. LÄS MER
