21. Simulation of Wheel and Rail Profile Evolution : Wear Modelling and Validation
Sammanfattning : Numerical procedures for reliable wheel and rail wearprediction are rare. Recent development of simulationtechniques and computer power together with tribologicalknowledge do however suggest computer aided wear prediction. LÄS MER
22. Sliding bearings for hydropower applications : novel materials, surface texture and EALs
Sammanfattning : Hydropower, the utilisation of water as a means of driving machinery, has been used for many centuries. Today, the great power of water is being harnessed to generate as much as 20% of worldwide electricity. The requirement for reliable and efficient electricity generation needs to be matched by environmental awareness on the part of the industry. LÄS MER
23. Friction and wear in rolling and sliding contacts
Sammanfattning : Mechanical products are always expected to perform better, last longer, be more environmentally friendly and preferably cost less. Rolling and sliding contacts are found in many mechanical products, and friction and wear in the contacts have a direct impact on the products’ ability to meet these demands. LÄS MER
24. Time-domain modelling of high-frequency wheel/rail interaction
Sammanfattning : The interaction between wheel and rail is the predominant source of noise emission from railway operations in a wide range of conventional speeds. On the one hand, this wheel/rail noise concerns rolling noise and impact noise caused by the vertical interaction excited by roughness and discrete irregularities of the wheel/rail running surfaces, respectively.

25. Insulator charging by contact with metals
Sammanfattning : In spite of the fact that charge transfer is one of the oldest physical phenomena known, the basic mechanisms involved are not yet quite understood. For experimental investigations of the charge transfer to insulators it is still informative to scrutinize electrification systems consisting of as simple components as possible. LÄS MER
