  1. 1. Modeling of a ball contact with a coated plate

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

    Author : Mohammadreza Saeedi; [2023]
    Keywords : Pin on disc tribometer; coating; contact mechanics; finite element method; tribology; Pin on disc tribometer; beläggning; kontaktmekanik; finita elementmetod; tribologi;

    Abstract : During tightening of a screw, the variation in friction will affect the force acting on the joint, especially when tightening using torque as a control parameter. So, it is crucial to have a proper understanding of the contact mechanism and friction in the screw head to joint and thread interfaces. READ MORE

  3. 2. Control of the ball and plate system : A comparative study of controllers

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

    Author : Filip Strand; Martin Wahlund; [2022]
    Keywords : Ball and plate; Fuzzy logic; Mechatronics; Control technology; Boll och platta; Suddig logik; Mekatronik; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This paper presents a comparison of controllers, specifically between conventional PID controllers with different structures and a Fuzzy Logic Controller. The performance has been evaluated by conducting experiments with the Ball and plate system, which is a system that is used to balance a ball on a plate. READ MORE

  4. 3. Quantification of Swelling in Sealing Materials

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Johanna Möller; Paula Erlandsson; [2021]
    Keywords : elastomer; rubber; gaskets; NBR; EPDM; swelling; diffusion coefficient; polymer technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The objective of this study was to quantify swelling in gasket materials to better predict the gaskets life span in heat exchangers. Alfa Laval produces plate heat exchangers, which are a common unit within the process industry. There are different types of plate heat exchangers, and one type is sealed with gaskets. READ MORE

  5. 4. Path Following Using Gain Scheduled LQR Control : with applications to a labyrinth game

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Emil Frid; Fredrik Nilsson; [2020]
    Keywords : automatic control; control theory; gain scheduling; LQR; path following; labyrinth; ball and plate;

    Abstract : This master's thesis aims to make the BRIO Labyrinth Game autonomous and the main focus is on the development of a path following controller. A test-bench system is built using a modern edition of the classic game with the addition of a Raspberry Pi, a camera and two servos. READ MORE

  6. 5. Grease-oil compatibility in tribological applications - supergrease

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Anna Von Krusenstierna; [2016]
    Keywords : tap-changer; lindingskopplare; fett; grease; transformer oil; grease-oil compatibility; materials chemistry; materialkemi; Technology and Engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : A common reason to malfunctioning of tap-changers is wear of tribological contacts. In order to reduce wear, it would be desirable to lubricate the contacts. Since the tap-changer is working in transformer oil, it is necessary that whatever lubricant is added is compatible with transformer oil. READ MORE
