  1. 1. High temperature galling : influencing parameters and mechanisms

    Author : Leonardo Pelcastre; Jens Bergström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements; Centrumbildning - Centrum för högpresterande stål CHS ; Centre - Centre for High Performance Steel CHS ;

    Abstract : Damage of forming tools at elevated temperatures is a major problem in metal forming processes such as hot stamping. Of special importance is the occurrence of adhesion and gross material transfer from the work-piece to the tool surface, a phenomenon known as galling. READ MORE

  2. 2. Behaviour of pretensioned bolts in friction connections : towards the use of higher strength steels in wind towers

    Author : Christine Heistermann; Carlos Rebelo; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Steel Structures; Stålbyggnad; Centrumbildning - Centrum för högpresterande stål CHS ; Centre - Centre for High Performance Steel CHS ;

    Abstract : During recent years wind energy has established as an alternative to commonenergy sources. To advance its competitiveness, the costs for the constructionof a wind tower have to be reduced. One possible option is the use of frictiongrip joints instead of flange connections to join various tower segments in atubular steel tower. READ MORE

  3. 3. Wear and fatigue properties of isothermally treated high-Si steels

    Author : Alejandro Leiro; Peter Hedström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials; Centrumbildning - Centrum för högpresterande stål CHS ; Centre - Centre for High Performance Steel CHS ;

    Abstract : In recent years steels containing Si contents of 1,5% or more have been isothermally transformed in order to obtain a microstructure consisting of bainitic ferrite laths and retained austenite. The refined microstructure and presence of retained austenite has allowed the manufacture of steels with high tensile strength and considerable elongation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modelling and characterisation of fracture properties of advanced high strength steels

    Author : Rickard Östlund; Greger Bergman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []

    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

  5. 5. Microstructure based modelling of ductile fracture in quench-hardenable boron steel

    Author : Rickard Östlund; Michael Worswick; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics; Centrumbildning - Centrum för högpresterande stål CHS ; Centre - Centre for High Performance Steel CHS ;

    Abstract : Reduction of fuel consumption and emissions by vehicle weight minimization constitute a major driving force for the development of new materials and manufacturing processes in the automotive industry. Simultaneously formed and quenched boron steel components have higher strength to weight ratio than conventional mild steel components. READ MORE
