  1. 1. Effect of temperature on early stage adhesion during TiAlN sliding against Inconel 718 and Stainless steel 316L : High temperature tribology

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Ahsan Ali; [2023]
    Keywords : High temperature tribology; Early-stage adhesion; Adhesive wear; Friction; Wear resistant coatings; Physical vapour deposition PVD coatings; TiAlN; Tungsten carbide WC Co ; Difficult to machine super alloys; Inconel 718; Stainless steel 316L; High-performance materials; Abrasion; Oxidation; Chipping; Ploughing; Characterization;

    Abstract : High-performance materials such as stainless steels and nickel based super alloys are widely used in demanding applications where high mechanical and thermal properties are required. The applications of super alloys are mainly found in jet engines, power plants and gas turbines demanding high fatigue strength, corrosion and oxidation resistance as well as wear resistant properties.

  2. 2. High Temperature Tribology of Exhaust Components in Alternative Fuel Engines

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Muhammad Hashir Zaheer; [2023]
    Keywords : High temperature tribology; Wear; Friction; Exhaust manifold; Lip seal ring; Wear resistant coatings; Inconel 718c; SiMo51 ductile cast iron; AlTiN; Tribaloy 400;

    Abstract : Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) exhaust components are exposed to extreme operating temperatures. Thus, it is necessary that they are designed with materials that can sustain thermal and vibrational stresses. READ MORE

  3. 3. Thermal Initiation of Energetic Materials Caused by Hot Fragments

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Sirak Ghebreamlak; [2022]
    Keywords : Applied mathematics; computational mathematics; heat equation; thermal initiation; chemical kinetics; energetic materials; Tillämpad matematik; beräkningsteknik; värmeledningsekvationen; termisk initiering; kinetik; energetiska material;

    Abstract : The cause of unintentional initiations of energetic materials is an important area of study due to the risks that comes with storing energetic materials such as high explosives. The current models used to simulate the process of heating energetic materials by a hot metal fragment do not give reliable predictions. READ MORE

  4. 4. Material Transfer Mechanisms during Interaction of Aluminium Alloy and Tool Steel at Elevated Temperatures

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Gabriel Macêdo; [2020]
    Keywords : material transfer mechanisms; high temperature tribology; hot metal forming tribology; hot-stamping of aluminium alloys; aluminium alloys;

    Abstract : Hot stamping of aluminium alloys allows for increased formability, decreased springback and the possibility of integrating age-hardening heat treatments into the process. However, it can be challenging due to the occurrence of material transfer of aluminium onto the tool, as aluminium is prone to adhesion even at low temperatures. READ MORE

  5. 5. Polyimide thin-ply composite

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : KHALID MOUANE; [2018]
    Keywords : Polyimide; thin-ply; microcracking; curing stress; mechanical loading;

    Abstract : Mechanical performance of composite structures is influenced by the accumulation of damage from the manufacturing process and throughout the whole service life. For instance, an aircraft is subjected to a combination of mechanical loading and the thermo-oxidative environment from the take-off to the landing. READ MORE
