  1. 1. Synthesis of Transition Metal Aluminides from Elemental Powder Mixtures

    Author : Hossein Sina; Materialteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aluminides; Intermetallics; Powder Metallurgy; Reactive Sintering; Combustion Synthesis; Thermal Analysis; DSC; Onset temperature; Phase evolution; SEM; EDS; XRD;

    Abstract : Structural components such as those used in gas turbines for energy conversion applications, are subjected to high loads at elevated temperatures. In order to ensure that the components survive under these conditions for a sufficiently long time, it is imperative to select materials with good high temperature properties like strength and corrosion resistance.

  2. 2. On the Design of Ultra-fast Electro-Mechanical Actuators

    Author : Ara Bissal; Göran Engdahl; Torbjörn Lembke; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electro-mechanical drive; Circuit breakers; HVDC transmission; Eddy currents; Finite element; Electromagnetic; Thermal; Mechanical; Coils; Armature; Image motion analysis.;

    Abstract : The continuously increasing demand for connecting electric grids with remote renewable energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaic cells has rekindled interest in high voltage direct current (HVDC) multi-terminal networks. Although HVDC networks have numerous benefits, their adoption relies entirely on the availability of HVDC circuit breakers which, compared to traditional alternating current circuit breakers, have to operate in a time frame of milliseconds.

  3. 3. Prussian blue analogue copper hexacyanoferrate : Synthesis, structure characterization and its applications as battery electrode and CO2 adsorbent

    Author : Dickson Odhiambo Ojwang; Gunnar Svensson; Jekabs Grins; Andrew Goodwin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; copper hexacyanoferrate; synthesis; structure refinement; thermal dehydration; CO2 adsorption; kinetic analysis; in operando synchrotron X-ray diffraction; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Prussian blue (PB) and Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) are compounds with potential applications in a large variety of fields such as gas storage, poison antidotes, electrochromism, electrochemistry and molecular magnets. The compounds are easy to synthesize, cheap, environmentally friendly and have been pursued for both fundamental research and industrial purposes. READ MORE

  4. 4. Weldability of Precipitation Hardening Superalloys – Influence of Microstructure

    Author : Joel Håkan Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hot cracking; GTAW; Transvarestraint testing; Varestraint testing; Gleeble testing; Solidification cracking; HAZ liquation cracking; Repair welding; Strain age cracking; EBW; DSC thermal analysis;

    Abstract : Superalloys and in particular the precipitation hardened Ni-based superalloys havealways been used extensively in the hot sections of jet engines. Large hot structuralengine components with complex geometry have preferably been cast as single piececomponents since the large scale vacuum investment casting process becameavailable about fifty years ago.

  5. 5. The Effect of Processing Parameters and Alloy Composition on the Microstructure Formation and Quality of DC Cast Aluminium Alloys

    Author : Majed Jaradeh; Torbjörn Carlberg; Lars Arnberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aluminium wrought alloys; AA3xxx and 6xxx; Direct Chill Casting; Unidirectional Solidification; Bridgman technique; Process parameters; Microstructure; Composition modification; Thermal analysis; Inclusions; Metallographical investigations; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

    Abstract : The objective of this research is to increase the understanding of the solidification behaviour of some industrially important wrought aluminium alloys. The investigation methods range from direct investigations of as-cast ingots to laboratory-scale techniques in which ingot casting is simulated. READ MORE
