  1. 1. Impact of Frame Stiffness on Tribological Behaviour of Sliding Interfaces

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

    Author : Nisha Singh; [2023]
    Keywords : coefficient of friction; friction-vibration interaction; stiffness; tribometer; vibrations; friktionskoefficient; friktion-vibrationsinteraktion; styvhet; tribometer; vibrationer;

    Abstract : Friction and wear have been concerns to industrialists, scientists and environmentalist for several decades. Many robust models have been developed to address friction and wear and their dependency on various parameters. Numerous experiments have been conducted in the past to model friction and wear.

  3. 2. High Temperature Tribology of Exhaust Components in Alternative Fuel Engines

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Muhammad Hashir Zaheer; [2023]
    Keywords : High temperature tribology; Wear; Friction; Exhaust manifold; Lip seal ring; Wear resistant coatings; Inconel 718c; SiMo51 ductile cast iron; AlTiN; Tribaloy 400;

    Abstract : Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) exhaust components are exposed to extreme operating temperatures. Thus, it is necessary that they are designed with materials that can sustain thermal and vibrational stresses. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of MPC and PI control on a Tribometer : Design and comparison of control methods for a Pin-on-Disc Tribometer

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

    Author : Ehab Ziad Raheem; Tore Malmström; [2023]
    Keywords : Control Theory; MPC; PI; PI-Cascade; Tribometer; Pin-on-Disc; Reglersystem; MPC; PI; PI-Kaskadreglering; Tribometer; Stift-På-Skiva;

    Abstract : This thesis compares Model Predictive Control (MPC) and Proportional-Integral (PI) control in a pin-on-disc tribometer. The tribometer consists of a geared Direct Current (DC) motor driving a flywheel and a voice coil actuating a pin onto the surface of the flywheel. READ MORE

  5. 4. Improvement and verification of a pin-on-disc tribometer with variable speed and load

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Valentine Lin; [2023]
    Keywords : tribometer; friction; tribometer; friktion;

    Abstract : The use of threaded fasteners can be found throughout the manufacturing industry due to their simplicity. When tightening a threaded fastener, the goal is to reach a desired clamping force. However, the clamping force is not directly measurable in production environments and the tightening torque is instead used to estimate the clamping force. READ MORE

  6. 5. 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
