  1. 1. Thermomechanical stress analysis of the main insulation system of traction electrical machines

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Dahman Ismail; Alexis Andrei; [2020]
    Keywords : finite element analysis; thermo-mechanical stress; heavy-duty vehicle; electrical machine; insulation system; coupled-temperature displacement analysis; finita element analys; termomekaniska spänningar; lastbilar; elektriska motorer; isolering; termisk kopplingsförbindelse;

    Abstract : More efficiency heavy-duty vehicles are developed with higher range, updated electronic and mechanical parts. The fuel efficiency and pollution of carbon dioxide need to be lower to achieve new EU regulations. The global population increases with an increased number of heavy-duty vehicles. This, in turn, increases the emission. READ MORE

  3. 2. Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue Assessment of Marine Boiler : Using linear Finite Element Analyses

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Adefemi Samuel Alagbada; [2020]
    Keywords : Marine Boiler; FEA; Thermo-mechanical Loading; LEFM; Paris law; Flaws; RAO.;

    Abstract : This thesis is on fatigue crack growth assessments of a thermomechanical loaded Marine Boiler- Sunrod CPDB12. The installation position of the marine boiler in the ship in relation to its fatigue life under mode 1 loading is investigated. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modelling of Laser Welding of Aluminium using COMSOL Multiphysics

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Jie Chen; [2020]
    Keywords : laser welding process; aluminium alloy; thermal-mechanical; COMSOL Multiphysics; hot cracking; thermal model; CFD model; mechanical model; Marangoni effect; lasersvetsningsprocess; aluminiumlegeringar; termisk-mekanisk; COMSOL-flerfysik; hetsprickning; termisk modell; CFD-modell; mekanisk modell; Marangoni-effekt;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a modelling approach of laser welding process of aluminium alloy from the thermo-mechanical point of view to evaluate the occurrence of hot cracking based on simulation results and relevant criteria. The model was created stepwise in COMSOL Multiphysics, starting with the thermal model where heat conduction of solid and liquid phase was computed. READ MORE

  5. 4. Material parameter study for aheavy-vehicle exhaust manifoldusing the finite element method : to increase component lifetime and decrease its environmental impact

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Konstruktionsmaterial

    Author : David Ek; [2019]
    Keywords : Thermomechanical fatigue; TMF; material parameter study; finite element method; FEM;

    Abstract : The thesis originates from a need to meet stricter environmental regulations for Scania, to reduce fuel consumption and emission from heavy-vehicles. Scania aims to fulfil these requirements by increasing combustion pressure and temperature. These conditions are tougher for the engine components and they shorten their lifetime. READ MORE

  6. 5. Effect of dwell time on stress intensity factor of ferritic steel for steam turbine applications

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : Ahmed Azeez; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the transition from conventional to green energy production resources, steam turbines are used to satisfy the lack of energy during peaks in the demand times and the limited access of renewable resources. This type of usage for steam turbines makes them operate on a flexible schedule, which leads to unpredictable issues related to shorter component life and faster crack propagation. READ MORE
