6. Extended Computational Module for Tractive Effort at Rolling and Spinning Point Contacts
Sammanfattning : One category of mechanical systems that contains power-transferring point contacts is traction drive variators. These variators can be used in different concepts for Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVTs) and in vehicle applications, in order to achieve optimum engine operating conditions leading to improved driveability, reduced fuel consumption and an increase in overall vehicle performance.

7. Towards Model-Based Condition Monitoring of Railway Switches and Crossings
Sammanfattning : Railway switches and crossings (S&C, turnouts) connect different track sections and create a railway network by allowing for trains to change between tracks. This functionality comes at a cost as the load-inducing rail discontinuities in the switch and crossing panels cause much higher degradation rates for S&C compared to regular plain line track.

8. On Active Secondary Suspension in Rail Vehicles to Improve Ride Comfort
Sammanfattning : One way to make rail vehicles a competitive means of transportation is to increase running speed. However, higher speeds usually generate increased forces and accelerations on the vehicle, which have a negative effect on ride comfort. With conventional passive suspension, it may be difficult to maintain acceptable passenger comfort. LÄS MER
9. Active Lateral Secondary Suspension in a High-Speed Train to Improve Ride Comfort
Sammanfattning : Active secondary suspension in trains has been studied for a number of years, showing promising improvements in ride comfort. However, due to relatively high implementation and maintenance costs, active technology is not being used in service operation to a large extent. LÄS MER
10. Modeling and Simulation of Contacting Flexible Bodies in Multibody Systems
Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes the equations, algorithms and design decisions necessary for dynamic simulation of flexible bodies with moving contacts. The assumed general shape function approach is also presented. The approach is expected to be computationally less expensive than FEM approaches and easier to use than other reduction techniques.
