  1. 1. Development of Elastic Mechanism for actuation of Valve

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion

    Author : Nidhi Menon; [2023]
    Keywords : Compliant mechanism; Engine; HGR valve; Heat gas recirculation; Eftergivlig mekanism; HGR-ventil; läckage; varmgasåtercirkulationsventilen;

    Abstract : The HGR valve, or hot gas recirculation valve, is an essential component of modern internal combustion engines. Its main function is to reduce emissions of nitrous oxide (NOx), which is a harmful pollutant produced during combustion. READ MORE

  2. 2. Development of a Method to Determine the Influence of Rubber Components in Dynamic Simulations

    University essay from KTH/Farkostteknik och Solidmekanik

    Author : Mårten Vuorinen; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In order to make sure that an engine can withstand the vibration loads, while the weight is kept as low as possible, some components on the engine are made of rubber. The stiffness of these rubber components are several orders of magnitude lower than the surrounding metal components, and the inclusion of rubber components affects the dynamic behaviour of the engine.

  3. 3. Test Equipment for Physical Testing of Vibration Isolator

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : ADAM ALVETEG; MARKUS JOHANSSON; [2021]
    Keywords : Test rig; vibration isolator; hysteresis; Testrigg; vibrationsisolator; hysteres;

    Abstract : Vibrations is a phenomenon that can cause problems to systems if not dealt with. In heavy duty trucks, vibrations are mainly caused by uneven roads and from the combustion engine. Vibrations can damage components, reduce their service life and cause discomfort for the driver.

  4. 4. Air Induction System (AIS) Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Cheng Wei; [2016]
    Keywords : AIS; Cost; Weight; Air cleaner box; Hose clamps; Charge air ducts; Optimization;

    Abstract : Air intake system (AIS) plays an important role on affecting the performance of the engine and the vehicle. The design and optimization of the structures and materials of AIS contributes to producing a quality reliable system, reducing noise, cost and weight at the same time, which are significant to improve the performance of engine and vehicle.

  5. 5. Vibrational tests of preloaded rubber vibration isolators : A cam controlled displacement excitation

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Joanna Cierocka; Jiayue Tang; [2016]
    Keywords : Vibration test; Vibration isolator; Frequency response function; rubber; material properties; aging; camshaft; artificial aging;

    Abstract : Vibrations are very common phenomenon. It influences structures and generates acoustic noise which might be harmful to human beings. The vibration isolator was invented to reduce the effect from vibrations. However, the behavior of rubber material, which many vibration isolators are made of, is hard to predict. READ MORE
