  1. 1. On Efficient Modelling of Wheel-Rail Contact in Vehicle Dynamics Simulation

    Författare :Matin Shahzamanian Sichani; Mats Berg; Roger Enblom; Asier Alonso; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wheel-rail contact; non-elliptic contact; rail vehicle dynamics; rolling contact; vehicle-track interaction; wheel-rail damage; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Fordonsteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Tribologi; The KTH Railway Group - Tribology; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The wheel-rail contact is at the core of all research related to vehicletrackinteraction. This tiny interface governs the dynamic performanceof rail vehicles through the forces it transmits and, like any high stressconcentration zone, it is subjected to serious damage phenomena. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Orienting Moduli Spaces of Flow Trees for Symplectic Field Theory

  3. 3. Modelling of Moving Contact Lines in Two-Phase Flows

    Författare :Hanna Holmgren; Gunilla Kreiss; Stefan Turek; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computational fluid dynamics; Two-phase flow; Contact lines; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    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. 4. Thermally stable electrical contacts to 6H silicon carbide

    Författare :Nils Lundberg; Mikael Östling; Claude Jaussaud; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; I-V current -voltage ; C-V capacitance-voltage ; rectifying; ohmic; interface; silicide; carbide; epilayer; Schottky barrier height; current rectification ratio CRR ; specific contact resistivity; transmission line model TLM ; contact resistance; transfer length; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Silicon Carbide (SiC) are at present being developed for use in high temperature (≥ 500◦C) and high-power environments under which conventional semiconductors can hardly perform.  Thermally stable electrical contacts are essential to the ability of SiC to function under such extreme conditions.

  5. 5. Capillarity and wetting of non-Newtonian droplets

    Författare :Yuli Wang; Gustav Amberg; Daniel Bonn; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dynamic wetting; contact line; diffusive interface; viscoelasticity; non-Newtonian; microfluidics; droplet impact; droplet spreading; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : Capillarity and dynamic wetting of non-Newtonian fluids are important in many natural and industrial processes, examples cover from a daily phenomenon as splashing of a cup of yogurt to advanced technologies such as additive manufacturing. The applicable non-Newtonian fluids are usually viscoelastic compounds of polymers and solvents. LÄS MER
