  1. 1. Multi-axial fatigue of welded details

    Author : Mathias Bokesjö; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Welds and welded joints are nowadays very common in steel structures. Since thewelded parts also are susceptible to fatigue, they can have a major influence on thetotal life of the structure. READ MORE

  2. 2. Influences of temperature, fatigue and mixed mode loading on the cohesive properties of adhesive layers

    Author : Tomas Walander; Christian Berggreen; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; adhesive layer; cohesive law; fatigue; finite element analysis; fracture energy; mixed mode; multi-axial fatigue; potential model; temperature; Mechanics of Materials; Materialmekanik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns some aspects that have influence on the strength of adhesive layers. The strength is determined by the stress deformation-relation of the layer. This relation is also referred to as cohesive law. READ MORE

  3. 3. Finite element procedures for crack path prediction in multi-axial fatigue

    Author : Dimosthenis Floros; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fracture mechanics; Configurational forces; Mixed-mode; Numerical simulation; Rolling contact fatigue; Plasticity;

    Abstract : Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) cracks in rails are among the most detrimental railway track defects regarding reliability and cost. The cracks typically grow in shear mode up to a certain length at which they might arrest or kink into a more tensile-driven growth. READ MORE

  4. 4. Wheels, Rails and Insulated Joints - Damage and Failure Probability at High Speed and Axle Load

    Author : Johan Sandström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rail breaks; probability; railway mechanics; contact mechanics; insulated joints; defects; fatigue;

    Abstract : The thesis deals with some fatigue related problems in railway mechanics related to increased axle loads and speeds. The focus is on defects and discontinuities in the wheel--rail system that affect the risk of fatigue and fracture of railway components such as wheels, rails and insulated joints. READ MORE
