  1. 1. Snow Contamination of Cars: Adhesive Particle Collisions with Exterior Surfaces

    Författare :Tobias Eidevåg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; icing; particle laden flow; turbulent dispersion; premelting; sensor availability; exterior soiling; snow physics; particle resuspension; snow adhesion;

    Sammanfattning : An ongoing challenge regarding autonomous vehicles is the obstruction of sensors by contaminants on exterior surfaces. This often occurs when driving in harsh weather conditions, where the contaminant can be, for example, water spray, dirt, or snow. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Snow contamination of cars: Collisions of ice particles with surfaces

    Författare :Tobias Eidevåg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ice adhesion; Snow adhesion; coefficient of restitution; particle impacts; premelting; radar blockage;

    Sammanfattning : Seasonal snow cover on roads causes car accidents that lead to human suffering and economic loss. Snow cover decreases visibility and road-tire friction. Advanced active safety systems have been developed to cope with sudden changes in driving conditions and have been engineered to act as quickly as possible. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Optimizing Ice-Resistant Surfaces: Unifying Self-Healing, Durability, and Functional Design for Superior Anti-/de-icing Performance

    Författare :Jun Chen; Yijun Shi; Pär Marklund; Marcus Björling; Jianying He; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Anti- de-icing; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Sammanfattning : Snow and ice accumulation on critical infrastructure such as wind power turbines and power lines cause significant challenges and safety hazards in cold climate regions during wintertime. Research into anti-/de-icing technologies has been divided into two main streams, i.e., active, and passive approaches. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Railway Wheel Flats. Martensite Formation, Residual Stresses, and Crack Propagation

    Författare :Johan Jergeus; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sliding contact; metallographic investigation; crack propagation; thermal shock; constitutive modelling; phase transformations; railway wheel flats; full-scale field experiments; transformation plasticity; tread damage; residual stresses; spalling; martensite formation;

    Sammanfattning : A railway wheel flat is a flat spot on the rolling surface of a wheel caused by its unintentional sliding on the rail. The reason for the sliding may be poorly adjusted, frozen or defect brakes, or too high braking forces in relation to the available wheel/rail adhesion. LÄS MER
