1. Thermomechanical behaviour of tread braked wheels
Abstract : Tread brakes, also known as block brakes, are a type of friction brakes commonly used in the railway industry. They are a low-cost and low-maintenance solution compared to more complicated systems such as disc brakes or electrodynamic brakes. READ MORE

2. Wood and fibre mechanics related to the thermomechanical pulping process
Abstract : The main objective of this thesis was to improve the understanding of some aspects on wood and fibre mechanics related to conditions in the thermomechanical pulping process. Another objective was to measure the power distribution between the rotating plates in a refiner. READ MORE

3. Thermomechanical Modelling of Tribological Systems
Abstract : The present thesis concerns the thermomechanical modelling of contact, friction and wear. Within a framework of continuum thermodynamics, Signorini's contact conditions, Coulomb's law of friction and Archard's law of wear are derived by means of a free energy and a dissipation potential.

5. Thermomechanics of block brakes
Abstract : Friction in sliding contacts plays an important role in tribology. Applications can be found in many engineering fields such as braking of vehicles in which friction brakes are by far the most common. Thus, an understanding of the mechanisms involved in friction brakes has become more important as the demands on brakes increase. READ MORE
