  1. 1. Tribological characterization of a ball bearing subjected to an electric field : Electric drivetrain tribology

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

    Author : Muhammad Umar Farooq; [2023]
    Keywords : Ball bearing; electric drivetrain; tribology; electric field; characterization; bearing currents; discharge;

    Abstract : Electric machines are widely used in for instance the automotive industry in electric vehicles and in wind turbines. The electrical machines have mechanical bearings as an integral part used to transmit power and load. In addition, the main function includes reducing friction between interacting surfaces.

  4. 3. Permanent Fire Load of the Building Envelope

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Gizelle Danine Pondevida Jamero; [2023]
    Keywords : Permanent fire load; temporary fire load; fire load; building envelope; insulation; building content; upholstered furniture; heat of combustion; MCC; bomb calorimeter; cone calorimeter; room corner test.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Fire load, the total thermal energy released by the combustion of a material, is an essential part of determining a building’s fire performance and the associated fire protection strategies. Elements in a structure are typically categorized into two types of fire loads: permanent and temporary. READ MORE

  5. 4. Monitoring of Partial Discharges on Cable Terminations : An experimental approach to evaluate non-conventional online PD measurement techniques

  6. 5. The development of an acoustic insulation solution using mushroom mycelium as an alternative to synthetic foams

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Industridesign

    Author : Adrián Brito Guerrero de Escalante; [2023]
    Keywords : mycelium composites; design thinking; design for emotion; sustainability; acoustic insulation; fungi; mushrooms.;

    Abstract : In the past decades, humanity is facing the consequences of the irresponsible production of plastics and the expansion of industries such as industrial agriculture, Therefore, the development of new sustainable alternative materials has become increasingly popular as a science field. That is the case of mycelium composites, a biodegradable material made out of agricultural and the thread-like roots of mushrooms called mycelium. READ MORE
