21. A Ni3Al-alloy and its Composites as Potential Wear Resistant Materials for Advanced Applications
Sammanfattning : The Ni3Al-based intermetallic alloys as engineering materials in service, they may be subjected to a wear environment of some sort. Hence, it is technologically important to understand the tribological response and to determine methodologies to improve wear resistance of these advanced materials. LÄS MER
22. Self Lubrication on the Atomic Scale : Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Coatings
Sammanfattning : In this thesis a new design concept of tribologically active coatings aimed for low friction applications, have been explored. Materials modeled by ab initio DFT calculations were realized through deposition of carbide and nanocomposite coatings by DC-magnetron sputtering. LÄS MER
23. Theoretical Developments for the Real-Time Description and Control of Nanoscale Systems
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we focus on improvements of the description of the electron-electron correlation effects in nonequilibrium nanosystems. We mainly focus on developments of two nonequilibrium methods, namely the formalism of Nonequilibrium Green’s Function and Time Dependent Density Functional Theory and we explore the possibility to improve existing approximations in these theories.

24. Studies of Transient and Pulsating flows with application to Hydropower
Sammanfattning : The rotational motion of a hydraulic turbine runner makes pulsating flows ubiquitous in different locations of the machine. The cyclic loading thus induced may generate large pressure forces acting periodically on both stationary and rotating parts. LÄS MER
25. High Temperature Tribology of Aluminium : Effect of Lubrication and Surface Engineering on Friction and Material Transfer
Sammanfattning : Lightweight design for automotive applications has been pursued for several decades and continues to increase. The main driving forces are new and increasingly stringent emission regulations as well as the increasing popularity of electric, or hybrid, vehicles where the increased weight of the batteries need to be compensated by light weight structures.
