1. Multibody modelling of the vibrations in an aircraft engine
University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanikAbstract : During the assembly of aircraft engines, some clearance is left in the rolling bearings mainly to reduce friction. However this clearance might allow the rolling element to vibrate during flight. Indeed, unwanted vibrations called non-synchronous vibrations (NSV) appear on the data recorded by the sensors on some development engines. READ MORE

2. On the friction and failure mechanisms of bearing and gear surfaces lubricated by a novel nanoadditive in highly stressed operating conditions
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Obtaining an enhanced lifespan for mechanical transmissions has become a challenge in diverse application sectors. Micropitting as a contact fatigue mechanism has seriously jeopardized the well-being of rolling-sliding elements present for instance in gearboxes. READ MORE

3. SUSTAINABLE LUBRICATION FOR FUTURE TRANSMISSIONS : Micropitting performance of Glycerol-based lubricants
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Achieving sustainable lubrication by using environmentally friendly formulated lubricants has became an essential component of the transition process from fossil-powered vehicles to electrified transportation. Mixtures, or aqueous solutions of molecules such as polyhydroxy alcohols, and glycols usually known as green lubricants make it possible to achieve low friction coefficients under different lubrication conditions, which constitutes a potential alternative to improve the tribological performance of moving parts in automotive systems, at the same time that the environmental requirements are satisfied.

4. The relation between rolling resistance and tyre temperature in real driving scenarios
University essay from Linköpings universitet/FordonssystemAbstract : A large portion of the world’s total emissions is caused by the transport sector where rolling resistance is one of the contributing factors. The inner tyre temperature is a factor that greatly influences the rolling resistance. READ MORE

5. Development of a method for estimation of contact fatigue life in hypoid gears
University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)Abstract : Hypoid gears have been used extensively in automobiles, aerospace, marine and other applications for decades. The special advantages of hypoid gears come with inherent contact complexities of varying curvature and sliding in both profile and lengthwise direction. READ MORE
