2. 6. Mechanical braking systems for trains: A study of temperatures, fatigue and wear by experiments and simulations

   Author : Mandeep Singh Walia; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tread brakes; experiments; temperatures; disc brakes; wear; Railway braking; simulations; fatigue;

   Abstract : Increased demand for shorter travel times, higher axle loads, increased volumes and increased punctuality of railway traffic calls for a better design and management of the railway subsystems. The present thesis deals with aspects of mechanical friction brakes, in the form of tread brakes and disc brakes. READ MORE

4. 7. Ice Formwork : The Rationale and Potential of Ice-Based Moulding Systems  for the Production of Complex-Geometry  Precast Concrete

   Author : Vasily Sitnikov; Oliver Tessmann; Tim Ainsworth Anstey; Harald Kloft; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ice Formwork; High-Performance Concrete; Digital Fabrication; Refrigeration; Embodied Energy; Grey energy; Carbon Footprint.; Architectural Technology; Arkitekturteknik;

   Abstract : This doctoral thesis analyses and makes proposals about adapting the poten-tial of digital means of production to the needs of the concrete industry. More precisely, it aims at fostering the development of sustainable material cycles and the innovation in manufacturing methods in the field of architectural and structural design of ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC).

6. 9. Mechanical Properties, Microstructures and Defects of Tool Steels Fabricated by Additive Manufacturing

   Author : Yuan Miwen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Additive manufacturing; Carbides; Post heat treatment; Directed energy deposition; Softening resistance; Pores; Laser beam powder bed fusion; Solidification cracking; Tool steels;

   Abstract : Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been gaining significant interest in the manufacturing of metallic materials in the recent years. From a techno-commercial standpoint, tooling is one of the areas with low production volumes but very high demands on part performance and complexity in design, all of which are characteristic for metal AM.

7. 10. Towards Changeability Quantification for Product-Service Systems Design

   Author : Raj Jiten Machchhar; Alessandro Bertoni; Johan Wall; Fredrik Elgh; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Changeability quantification; early design; Uncertainty; Value robustness; Operational Scenario; Product-Service Systems; Systems Engineering.; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

   Abstract : Tough competition and volatile global markets have pushed the manufacturing industries to develop solutions more customer-centric with optimal utilization of resources. One of the key reasons behind developing a customer-centric solution is the increased customer value that imparts a competitive edge to the manufacturing industries, eventually leading them to sustain their businesses.
