  1. 1. 3D printing of ceramic composites with improved mechanical strength

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Author : Liu Yuchen; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : AbstractCeramic materials have a wide range of applications in many fields, but their fragility limits theiruse in high strength and high stress environments. Therefore, by combining ceramic materialswith reinforcing agents, their mechanical properties can be improved. READ MORE

  3. 2. Microstructure characteristics and tribological behaviour of plasma sprayed ceramic coatings

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Luigi Fadini; [2023]
    Keywords : Thermal spray; APS; SPS; tribology; wear resistant ceramic coatings;

    Abstract : Surface engineering is increasingly becoming inevitable for meeting the high-performance requirements constantly expected from modern engineering components. Higher demands for combined functionalities, which a base material alone cannot provide, motivate intensive academic studies on various types of coatings, with the ultimate objective of their practical utilisation in industries.

  4. 3. Comfortable Vehicle Surfaces : A Master Thesis on the Comfort Experience of Interior Vehicle Surfaces

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

    Author : Anna Mellqvist; Simon Vicini; [2022]
    Keywords : Comfort; Automotive Design; Industrial Design Engineering; User Experience;

    Abstract : This thesis was conducted to explore and try to understand the area of comfort within cars with an emphasize on interior surfaces. Research within comfort has been focused on the consequences of moving mechanical parts and not on the user experience of the interior cabin design. READ MORE

  5. 4. A pre-study for functional coatings evaluated on light metals to be applied on a new HPDC Mg-alloy : Investigating tribological and thermophysical properties, as-cast and coated

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Industriell produktutveckling, produktion och design

    Author : Louise Albo Zieme; Pontus Bergstedt; [2021]
    Keywords : reciprocating dry sliding wear test; thermophysical test; NiP-SiC; Ni-SiC; functional coatings; progressive scratch test; adhesion; magnesium alloy; aluminium alloy; hardness.;

    Abstract : Magnesium with two-thirds of the density compared to aluminium and one-quarter of steel, intrigues product developers and material scientists due to the light metal’s excellent combination of strength to weight ratio as well as their capability of being produced as a High Pressure Die Cast component compared to other ferrous or light metal alloys.   However, a magnesium alloy inherits some concerning drawbacks, limiting the exploitation in structural applications and mechanical design such as automotive, heavy machinery and aerospace components.
