  1. 11. TRIBOCHEMICAL INTERACTIONS OF A PTFE/ALPHA ALUMINA COMPOSITE AT THE SLIDING INTERFACE: A MECHANISM FOR ULTRA LOW WEAR

    Författare :Kathryn L Harris; USA University of Florida; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The wear and friction behavior of ultralow wear polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/αalumina composites first described by Burris and Sawyer in 2006 has been studied intensively in the years hence. The mechanisms responsible for the remarkable improvement in wear over unfilled PTFE are not yet fully understood. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Friction and Wear Mechanisms of Ceramic Surfaces : With Applications to Micro Motors and Hip Joint Replacements

    Författare :Johanna Olofsson; Staffan Jacobson; Håkan Engqvist; Koshi Adachi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tribology; Friction; Wear; Ceramic; Tribofilm; Alumina; Silicon nitride; Ultrasonic Motors; Hip Joint Replacement; PVD coating; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : Surfaces exposed to wear always transform and typically a layer of new structure and composition is formed. This layer, often called tribofilm, changes the friction and wear properties. LÄS MER

  4. 13. New insights into lubricated tribological contacts

    Författare :Elin Larsson; Staffan Jacobson; Åsa Kassman Rudolphi; Jannica Heinrichs; Philip Shipway; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tribology; friction; wear; lubrication; fuel additive; boric acid; tribofilm; transport; fuel efficiency; surface analysis; grease; LiX grease; PP grease; fretting; electrical contacts; cross section; copper; silver; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Sammanfattning : The emissions of carbon dioxide, CO2, must rapidly be reduced to avoid severe climate change. Tribology-related solutions can be an important part in reducing these emissions. The aim of this thesis is to improve the fundamental knowledge in two tribology-related fields, both concerning lubrication, to enable such solutions in the future. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Tribology of carbon fiber reinforced PTFE composites in dry gas environments

    Författare :Pontus Johansson; Pär Marklund; Marcus Björling; Yijun Shi; Stephen Kukureka; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Sammanfattning : With hydrogen being one of the key pillars of decarbonization, the reliability and efficiency of hydrogen applications become increasingly important. In applications such as oil-free reciprocating hydrogen compressors and Stirling engines, the self-lubricating pistonrings and other dynamic seals are critical components in terms of efficiency, service life and proper functioning.

  7. 15. On the influence of gear oil properties on pitting life

    Författare :Jens Johansson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Sammanfattning : Increasing demands on the automotive industry to produce fuel-efficient vehicles has led the industry to explore different approaches, including reducing power losses and improving fuel efficiency of engines. The goal of this project has been to investigate the possibilities of reducing the frictional losses in drive axles and hypoid gears. LÄS MER
