1. Predicting Sheared Edge Characteristics of High Strength Steels
Abstract : An efficient way of reducing CO2 emissions from the transportation sector is to reduce the vehicle weights, i.e. lightweighting. A common strategy for lightweighting of vehicles is to replace the steels used to build structural parts of the vehicle, usually manufactured by metallic sheets, with stronger, advanced high strength steel (AHSS) grades.

2. Microstructure and mechanical properties of a 5 wt.% Cr cold work tool steel : Influence of heat treatment procedure
Abstract : The demand for Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS) in the automotive industry is increasing day by day. It is mainly motivated by the fact that AHSS can be used as thin sheets while having high strengths. READ MORE

3. Towards energy-based fracture modelling for crashworthiness applications
Abstract : The automotive industry is currently adapting to progessively more stringent emission and safety regulations imposed by governmental agencies. This introduces significant design difficulties due to the conflicting nature of passenger safety in automotive manufacturing, namely that increased crashworthiness generally leads to heavier vehicles, which in turn leads to more severe crashes.

4. Comprehensive non-target screening to find and identify new biomagnifying organic contaminants in Baltic Sea top consumers
Abstract : The development of industrial processes in the 19th and 20th centuries, in particular oil refining, resulted in a huge discovery and subsequent large-scale production of a variety of chemicals. These useful chemicals supposedly made the everyday lives of people easier and better by, for instance, controlling the spread of diseases such as malaria, through the use of DDT and other organochlorine pesticides (OCPs).

5. Modelling and characterisation of fracture properties of advanced high strength steels
Abstract : Growing demands for passenger safety, vehicle performance and fueleconomy is a continuous driving force for the increase in use of advancedhigh strength steels (AHSS) in the automotive industry. Thesesteels area characterised by improved formability and crash worthinesscompared to conventional steel grades. READ MORE
