  1. 6. An Investigation of the Iron-Ore Wheel Damages using Vehicle Dynamics Simulation

    Författare :Saeed Hossein Nia; Sebastian Stichel; Matti Rantatalo; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; three-piece bogie; wear; RCF; prediction; traction; braking; heavy haul; simulation; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Maintenance cost is one of the important issues in railway heavy haul operations. For the iron-ore company LKAB, these costs are mainly associated with the reprofiling and changing of the wheels of the locomotives and wagons. The main reason for the wheel damages is usually surface initiated rolling contact fatigue (RCF) on the wheels. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Synchronous Belt Mechanics and Durability - An Investigation Towards Life Prediction

    Författare :Tomas Johannesson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; load distribution model; synchronous; camshaft drives; mathematical modelling; timing; belt; dynamic; wear; simulation; automotive; belt life prediction;

    Sammanfattning : An automotive synchronous belt transmits power and assures accurate timing between the crankshaft and camshafts. The automotive industry is very competitive: there is constant pressure to increase performance and lower costs. LÄS MER

  4. 8. A study on wear characteristics of high strength steels under sliding contact

    Författare :Abdulbaset Mussa; Pavel Krakhmalev; Jens Bergström; Jens Hardell; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High strength steels; thread joint wear; punch wear; sliding wear; surface cracking; reciprocal sliding; fatigue; surface delamination; white etching layer; nano-structured layer; friction; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : In the last decades, significant improvements regarding the design, materials and technology of rock drills have been made. Likewise, in sheet metal forming, forming tools experience very high contact pressures when processing high strength steel sheets. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Numerical simulation of crack growth and wear in rails

    Författare :Jim Brouzoulis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; crack propagation; material forces; Rolling Contact Fatigue; wear; railway mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Wear and rolling contact fatigue (RCF) of rails are huge problems for the railway industry with increased world-wide occurrence during the last decades. It is, therefore, of high interest to develop tools for the prediction of wear and RCF which can be used to estimate rail life. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Numerical simulation of crack propagation and wear in rails

    Författare :Jim Brouzoulis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wear; Rolling Contact Fatigue; crack propagation; railway mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with rail deterioration due to Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) and wear. Focus lies primarily on numerical modelling and prediction, with the long-term objective of developing tools to be used for specifications and planning of rail maintenance. LÄS MER
