  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. Assessing Supply Chain Resilience to Mitigate Supply Chain Risks : A case study of the inbound logistics @ Volvo CE

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Logistik- och kvalitetsutveckling

    Author : Emma Fridolfsson; Lova de Man Lapidoth; [2023]
    Keywords : supply chain resilience; SCRES; supply chain risk; supply chain risk management; supply chain disruption; risk sources; risk drivers; resilience capabilities; SCRES elements; risk mitigation strategies;

    Abstract : In recent years, the frequency of disruptive events in supply chains has increased. This is partly due to the fact that supply chains are more globalized and more complex, with deeper tiering among suppliers. This makes the supply chain more vulnerable to risks. READ MORE

  4. 3. Simulation and Modelling of Injection Molded Components : Fiber Reinforced Polymers in Powertrain Mounts

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Hanna Jakobsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Material modelling; polymer composites; FRP; orthotropic; powertrain mount; vehicle engineering; Digimat; Material modellering; polymera kompositer; ortotropisk; motorupphängnig; Digimat;

    Abstract : Powertrain mounts' purpose is to mount the engine and the gearbox in the car. Besides that, it isolate the body from the powertrain movements and road excitation. The most common material in powertrain mounts bracket is aluminum but lately, fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) has been acting as a substitute for the aluminum. READ MORE

  5. 4. Static and dynamic characterization of elastomers by a modified hardness test

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Omar Chouman; [2019]
    Keywords : Rubber; elastomer; modified hardness test; dynamic and static characterization; damping; dynamic shear modulus; hyperelastic material; hyperelastic constants; finite element method; FEM; FEA; Abaqus; Volvo Cars; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Today rubber can be found in many different applications, such as vibration dampers, tyres, clothes and gaskets. Two different types of rubbers are used today, namely the natural rubber and synthetic rubber. Natural rubber is made of a milky substance called latex, which is obtained from special trees found in tropical countries. READ MORE

  6. 5. Optimization of Flexplate

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Alexander Hillberg; Marcus Olmarker; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : From 2019, all new Volvo Powertrains will be electrified, also including ICE based Powertrains. In the ICE based Powertrains with automatic transmission, a flexplate is connecting the crank shaft to the automatic transmission to transfer the power. READ MORE
