  1. 1. High temperature corrosion during waste incineration : characterisation, causes and prevention of chlorine-induced corrosion

    Author : Peter Viklund; Christofer Leygraf; Jan Froitzheim; Staffan Hertzman; Sweden Stockholm Swerea KIMAB AB; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; high temperature corrosion; waste incineration; superheater tubing; steel; alkali; chlorine; suphur; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Waste-fired boilers suffer severely from corrosion of critical components such as superheater tubes. In this work the high temperature corrosion of candidate superheater alloys have been investigated by detailed laboratory studies and controlled field exposures in full-scale boilers. READ MORE

  2. 2. On tool steel, surface preparation, contact geometry and wear in sheet metal forming

    Author : Fredrik W. Lindvall; Jens Bergström; Staffan Jacobson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wear; Galling; sheet metal; deep drawing; Tool steel; surface preparation; Friction; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : In sheet metal forming operations the life length of the production equipment islargely dependent on the wear of the tools that are in direct contact with the sheet.One form of adhesive wear where some sheet material gets transferred to the tool, alsoknown as galling, is the most common cause of tool failure.

  3. 3. Toughness of Tool Steel

    Author : Henrik Jesperson; Håkan Engqvist; Birger Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Toughness; Tool Steel; Heat Treatment; Temperature; Energy absorption; Impact Testing; Fracture Toughness Testing; Non-metallic Inclusions; Carbides; Nitrides; Statistics; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Abstract : Toughness is the ability to resist tensile stresses in the presence of a notch or crack. Sometimes gross cracking of industrial tools, mould or dies, occurs due to insufficient toughness. As the economic consequences of the gross cracking are serious, the toughness of industrial tool material, generally tool steel, is of paramount importance. READ MORE

  4. 4. Large and rare : An extreme values approach to estimating the distribution of large defects in high-performance steels

    Author : Jens Ekengren; Jens Bergström; Christer Burman; Thomas Svensson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Non-metallic inclusions; Tool steel; Extreme value statistics; Distribution of defects; Generalized extreme values; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : The presence of different types of defects is an important reality for manufacturers and users of engineering materials. Generally, the defects are either considered to be the unwanted products of impurities in the raw materials or to have been introduced during the manufacturing process. READ MORE

  5. 5. The Influence of Residual Stresses on Constant and Variable Amplitude Fatigue Behaviour of Steel

    Author : Kamellia Dalaei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Steel; Relaxation; Residual stress; Variable Amplitude; Shot peening; Fatigue;

    Abstract : Subjected to dynamic loading, truck components are exposed to variable amplitude fatigue. The fatigue life of components is to a large degree controlled by the behaviour of the surface zones. READ MORE
