  1. 1. Additives in a steam engine to decrease friction : Friction testing of solid lubricants in powder form

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : Viktor Lange; [2023]
    Keywords : Tribology; friction; wear; steam; steam engine; ranotor; invencon; invencon AB; steel; contact mechanics; hexagonal boron nitride; molybdenum disulfide; tungsten disulfide; lubricants; solid lubricants; Tribologi; friktion; nötning; ånga; ångmotor; stål; kontaktmekanik; smörjning; smörjmedel; fasta smörjmedel;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate the coefficient of friction between steel on steel contacts with the addition of solid lubricants such as h-BN, WS2, MoS2 in powder form, in dry conditions and wet conditions. More specifically, the purpose is to enhance the sliding between the piston rings and cylinder block in a modern high temperature steam engine developed by RANOTOR. READ MORE

  3. 2. Plastic deformation of hot riveted joints acting in shear

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Victor Gard; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A popular way to maintain old rivet connections is to reuse the old connection and replace the old rivets with high grade steel bolts. In doing so the behavior of the joint can change due to the new geometry, where a gap between the new bolt and the rivet hole emerges. READ MORE

  4. 3. Effective shear stiffness of cross-laminated timber : Comparison between numerical and analytical approaches

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Therese Badrous; Las Muradi; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The increasing importance of sustainability has led to a focus on smart solutions for energy consumption and materials. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) has gained attention as a sustainable alternative in construction, offering high strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability. READ MORE

  5. 4. Head impact detection with sensor fusion and machine learning

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Aron Strandberg; [2022]
    Keywords : head impact detection; sensor fusion; 3D; machine learning; support vector machine; random forests;

    Abstract : Head injury is common in many different sports and elsewhere, and is often associated with differentdifficulties. One major problem is to identify and value the injury or the severity. Sometimes there is no sign of head injury, but a serious neck distortion has occurred, causing similar symptoms as head injuries e.g. READ MORE

  6. 5. FE Simulation of protective insulation of catalysts in exhaust after-treatment systems of trucks and buses : Investigation and characterization of catalytic converter support mat material for accurate modeling in finite element simulations

    University essay from
