1. Truck tyre rolling resistance : Experimental testing and constitutive modelling of tyres
Sammanfattning : Global warming sets a high demand to reduce the CO2 emissions of vehicles. In the European Union heavy-duty road transports account for 6 % of the total greenhouse gases and one of the main factors affecting these emissions is related to the rolling resistance of tyres. LÄS MER
2. Slip and fall risk on ice and snow : identification, evaluation and prevention
Sammanfattning : Slip and fall accidents and associated injuries on ice and snow are prevalent among outdoor workers and the general public in winter in many regions of the world. To understand and tackle this multi-factorial problem, a multidisciplinary approach was used to identify and evaluate slip and fall risks, and to propose recommendations for prevention of slips and falls on icy and snowy surfaces.

3. Load Bearing Capacity and Behaviour of Composite Slabs with Profiled Steel Sheet
Sammanfattning : In many cases the capacity of composite slabs with profiled steel sheeting depends on the shear resistance at the sheet-concrete interface. This shear resistance is essential to the interaction between the steel sheeting and the concrete. Besides this, other factors also affect the behaviour of composite slabs. LÄS MER
4. 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.

5. The Precipitation and Deformation Behaviour of Superaustenitic Stainless Steel
Sammanfattning : The present study concerns the precipitation behaviour and the deformation characteristics of a superaustenitic stainless steel with composition Fe-24Cr-22Ni-7.3Mo-0.5N (wt%). Regarding precipitation, also materials with Mo partially replaced by W have been studied. LÄS MER
