  1. 1. Graphical representations of Ising and Potts models : Stochastic geometry of the quantum Ising model and the space-time Potts model

    Author : Jakob Erik Björnberg; Anders Björner; Jeffrey Steif; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum Ising model; Ising model; Potts model; random-cluster model; random-current representation; random-parity representation; differential inequality; phase transition; Discrete mathematics; Diskret matematik;

    Abstract : HTML clipboard Statistical physics seeks to explain macroscopic properties of matter in terms of microscopic interactions. Of particular interest is the phenomenon of phase transition: the sudden changes in macroscopic properties as external conditions are varied. READ MORE

  2. 2. Cam Roller Contact

    Author : Frederic Cabanettes; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; classification of surfaces; wear test; roller; rough contact model; surface topography; injection cam; manufacturing evaluation;

    Abstract : The automotive industry and the design of engines are strongly ruled by performance andlegislation demands. First order aspects defining the main functions of a component are wellknown and new challenges appear at a lower scale. READ MORE

  3. 3. Cam Roller Contact : The topographical aspect

    Author : Frédéric Cabanettes; Bengt Göran Rosén; Peter Hansbo; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; injection cam; roller; surface topography; rough contact model; wear test; classification of surfaces; manufacturing evaluation; Mechanical manufacturing engineering; Mekanisk tillverkningsteknik;

    Abstract : The automotive industry and the design of engines are strongly ruled by performance and legislation demands. First order aspects defining the main functions of a component are well known and new challenges appear at a lower scale. READ MORE

  4. 4. Time-domain modelling of curve squeal: a fast model for one- and two-point wheel/rail contact

    Author : Ivan Zenzerovic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; two-point contact; non-Hertzian contact; dynamics coupling; rolling contact; tangential point-contact model; Curve squeal; time domain; frictional instability;

    Abstract : Curve squeal is a type of railway noise that may arise when a railway vehicle negotiates a relatively tight curve. A single frequency, corresponding to a wheel mode, dominates the radiated sound, which makes squeal a very tonal noise. READ MORE

  5. 5. On the influence of surface roughness on rolling contact forces

    Author : Oskar Lundberg; Ines Lopez Arteaga; Leif Kari; Matthias Kröger; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rolling contact; Surface roughness; Contact forces; Contact modelling; Friction; Road; Asphalt; Substrate; Test-rig; Sliding; Stick–slip; Tyre; Rubber; Tread-block; Wheel–rail interaction; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Road vehicle tyres, railway wheels and ball bearings all generate rolling contact forces which are transferred within a finite area of contact between the rolling element and the substrate. Either it is visible or not for the human eye, a certain degree of roughness is always present on the contacting surfaces and it influences the generation of both vertical and lateral contactforces.
