    Author : Jukka Hyttinen; Lars Drugge; Jenny Jerrelind; James Busfield; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Truck tyre; PRF; filler-reinforced rubber; ambient temperature; rubber testing; constitutive modelling; parametrisation; rolling resistance; load cell; Fletcher-Gent effect; Payne effect; Lastbilsdäck; PRF; förstärkande fyllmedel; gummi; omgivningstemperatur; gummiprovning; konstitutiv modellering; parametrisering; rullmotstånd; lastcell; Fletcher-Gent effekt; Payne effekt; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Abstract : Truck transport offers a versatile way to ship goods in regional, long haulage and urban applications. However, the heavy truck sector accounts for 6 % of total greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union. Therefore, there is a need for a substantial reduction of these emissions to secure the sustainability of Earth for future generations. READ MORE

  4. 2. Truck tyre rolling resistance : Experimental testing and constitutive modelling of tyres

    Abstract : Global warming sets a high demand to reduce the CO2 emissions of vehicles. In the European Union heavy-duty road transports account for 6 % of the total greenhouse gases and one of the main factors affecting these emissions is related to the rolling resistance of tyres. READ MORE

  5. 3. On the multifunctional performance of structural batteries

    Author : David Carlstedt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Modelling; Multifunctional composites; Electrical properties; Carbon fibre reinforced plastics; Mechanical properties; Energy storage;

    Abstract : The structural battery composite is a composite material that can store electrical energy (i.e. work as a battery) while simultaneously provide mechanical integrity in a structural system. Due to its inherent ability to store energy this material offers significant weight savings on a system level. READ MORE
