  2. 1. Fatigue and Fracture of High-Strength Steels : Improving Reliability in Strength Assessment

    Author : Gustav Hultgren; Zuheir Barsoum; Rami Mansour; Torbjörn Narström; Gary Marquis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-Strength Steel; Quality assurance; Probabilistic modeling; Fatigue; Fracture mechanics; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : Structural steel plays a fundamental role in the heavy industry, serving as a key material for numerous load-bearing products and equipment. Its widespread use is attributed to its robustness, resistance to wear, ease of use in construction, and cost-effectiveness. READ MORE

  4. 2. On reliability and maintenance modelling of ageing equipment in electric power systems

    Author : Tommie Lindquist; Roland Eriksson; Lina Bertling; George Anders; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reliability; maintenance; electric power systems; circuit breaker; disconnector; thermography; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : Maintenance optimisation is essential to achieve cost-efficiency, availability and reliability of supply in electric power systems. The process of maintenance optimisation requires information about the costs of preventive and corrective maintenance, as well as the costs of failures borne by both electricity suppliers and customers.

  5. 3. Condition measuring and lifetime modelling of electrical power transmission equipment

    Author : Per Westerlund; Patrik Hilber; Tommie Lindquist; Carl-Ejnar Sölver; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; disconnectors; circuit breakers; reliability; lifetime; electric contacts; electric power transmission; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The electric grid is important in modern society, so the outages should be few. The transmission grid should have a real high availability, since it transports electrical energy across the country. Then, it is difficult to plan outages for maintenance and installation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Analyzing Substation Automation System Reliability using Probabilistic Relational Models and Enterprise Architecture

    Author : Johan König; Lars Nordström; Sebastian Lehnhoff; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reliability analysis; substation automation; Enterprise Architecture; probabilistic analysis; Probabilistic Relational Models; Bayesian networks; software reliability; failure rates; fault tree analysis;

    Abstract : Modern society is unquestionably heavily reliant on supply of electricity. Hence, the power system is one of the important infrastructures for future growth. READ MORE

  7. 5. Condition measuring and lifetime modelling of disconnectors, circuit breakers and other electrical power transmission equipment

    Author : Per Westerlund; Patrik Hilber; Tommie Lindquist; William Q Meeker; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; reliability; maintenance; condition monitoring; disconnector; circuit breaker; Weibull distribution; prediction; risk analysis; decision making; beta distribution; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The supply of electricity is important in modern society, so the outages of the electric grid should be few and short, especially for the transmission grid. A summary of the history of the Swedish electrical system is presented. The objective is to be able to plan the maintenance better by following the condition of the equipment. READ MORE
