  1. 1. Method Development & Analysis of Seals using FEM

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion

    Author : Lovisa Svanborg Östlin; [2023]
    Keywords : FEM; guidelines; hyperelastic materials; hyperelastic material models; method development; seals; FEM; riktlinjer; hyperelastiska material; hyperelastiska materialmodeller; metodutveckling; tätningar;

    Abstract : Hyperelasticity is a significant property of rubber, taken advantage of in engineering applications. A common application is the use of seals to prevent fluid transfer (liquid or gas) between solid regions. Volvo CE is often depending on external supplier when developing seals. READ MORE

  3. 2. The transition of reaction-to-fire behavior from biomass to corresponding biochar

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Jacob Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : biochar; biomass; heat release rate; reaction-to-fire;

    Abstract : As of now, the environmental issue is very topical and there is also an underutilization of different biological material where these can be used in ways that are typically not thought of. One way to increase the degree of utilization is to convert various biomasses such as natural rubber, olive pits, wood chips, and reed pellets into biochar. READ MORE

  4. 3. Portfolio Diversification with Commodities : From a Swedish Perspective

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Nationalekonomi; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

    Author : Simon Derenkow; Max Walméus; [2022]
    Keywords : Commodities; DCC-GARCH; OMXSPI; Inflation; Correlation; Diversification; Modern Portfolio Theory;

    Abstract : This paper investigates the diversification characteristics of commodities in relation to the Swedish equity index OMXSPI. Much of the previous literature concludes that gold and oil possess diversification or hedging properties against the US equity markets. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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.

  6. 5. Effects of Temperature and Moisture Content on Young’s Modulus in Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Joel Sandberg; Samuel Sjölin; [2022]
    Keywords : Polyamide; nylon 66; PA66GF25; glassfiber reinforced polyamide; Young’s modulus; Polyamid; nylon 66; PA66GF25; glasfiberförstärkt polyamid; Youngs modul.;

    Abstract : This thesis was made in cooperation with Roxtec. Roxtec specialises in cable sealingsolutions and are world leading in their area. In many of Roxtec’s products steel isused in the frame holding the sealing rubber. To lower Roxtec’s environmental foot-print plastic would be used instead in the frames if possible, more specific polyamide6. READ MORE
