1. Impact of Metallic Projectiles on a Ceramic Target Surface : Transition Between Interface Defeat and Penetration
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to gain understanding of the load on flat target surfaces produced by projectile impact. Models are proposed from which upper and lower bounds can be derived for the transition be-tween interface defeat and normal penetration. LÄS MER
2. High Temperature Fatigue Crack Growth in a Ni-based Superalloy : Modelling Including the Interaction of Dwell Times
Sammanfattning : Safe life of gas turbines is always of major concern for manufacturers in order to ensure passenger safety and stable continuous power output. An increasing amount of resources have been put into research and development to assure that all safety aspects are covered in the design of new turbines and to ensure that enough frequent service intervals are scheduled to avoid complications.

3. High Temperature Fatigue Behaviour of Austenitic Stainless Steel : Microstructural Evolution during Dwell-Fatigue and Thermomechanical Fatigue
Sammanfattning : The global energy consumption is increasing and together with global warming from greenhouse gas emission, a need for more environmentally friendly energy production processes is created. Higher efficiency of biomass power plants can be achieved by increasing temperature and pressure in the boiler section, this would increase the generation of electricity along with the reduction in emission of greenhouse gases e.

4. Effect of Dwell-times on Crack Propagation in Superalloys
Sammanfattning : Gas turbines are widely used in industry for power generation and as a power source at "hard to reach" locations where other possibilities for electrical supply are insufficient. There is a strong need for greener energy, considering the effect that pollution has had on global warming, and we need to come up with ways of producing cleaner electricity. LÄS MER
5. Steering Based Lateral Performance Control of Long Heavy Vehicle Combinations
Sammanfattning : In this thesis the lateral performance of heavy vehicle combinations, specifically longer combination vehicles, is discussed. The use of longer combination vehicles is promoted by their positive impact on the traffic congestion problem, as well as their economic and environmental benefits due to reduced fuel consumption and emissions.
