16. Electrical and Frictional Performance of Tin-Coated Contacts Exposed to Wear and Fretting Corrosion
Sammanfattning : The complexity of electronic systems in vehicles is rapidly increasing, and as a consequence, the long-term reliability of automotive connectors has become an important issue. The aims of this thesis have been: 1. to characterize the friction, wear and electrical properties of tin coatings, 2. LÄS MER
17. Surface Engineering Approach to Frictional Optimization
Sammanfattning : Reducing emissions is a top priority within heavy duty diesel engine development and research. The power cylinder system is a main contributor to emissions and accounts for about 50% of the total frictional losses found in the engine, so is important to optimize. LÄS MER
18. Influence of thermal loading on mechanical properties of railway wheel steels
Sammanfattning : Material integrity and properties of wheels are critical in railway traffic, as wheels fulfil the important function of transferring load and traction from the vehicle to the rail track. Steels with a pearlitic microstructure are commonly used for wheels due to their height strength, low cost and good wear properties. LÄS MER
19. Robust Formulations for Beam-to-Beam Contact
Sammanfattning : Contact between beam elements is a specific category of contact problems which was introduced by Wriggers and Zavarise in 1997 for normal contact and later extended by Zavarise and Wriggers to include tangential and frictional contact. In these works, beam elements are assumed to have rigid circular cross-sections and each pair of elements cannot have more than one contact point. LÄS MER
20. On the Multi-Scale Nature of Ski-Snow Friction : Field Testing, Characterisation and Modelling of Cross-Country Ski Performance
Sammanfattning : The goal of most endurance sports is to get from point A to B in the shortest time possible. Throughout the course, athletes need to overcome the resistive forces that are present in their specific sport. LÄS MER
