  1. 1. Dependability analysis of military aircraft fleet performance in a lifecycle perspective

    Author : Jan Block; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Abstract : Today's highly advanced technological flying platforms, such as aircraft, helicopters and Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs), are characterised by a high degree of complexity. Simultaneously, they are used in different operational and mission profiles, and also in multiple operational environments and geographical settings. READ MORE

  2. 2. Part-out Based Spares Provisioning and Management : A Study for Aircraft Retirement

    Author : Jan Block; Alireza Ahmadi; Richard Millar; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aircraft retirement; End-of-life management; Parting-out; Part-out-based spares provisioning; Reliability analysis; Repairable units; Spare parts provisioning; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Abstract : The operation and maintenance phase of a complex technical system may deal with strategicdecisions for asset retirement and end-of-life management. When a fleet of aircraft reachesthe retirement phase, the operation of remaining fleet should still be kept at a defined level ofavailability. READ MORE

  3. 3. Prediction of engine component loads using previous measurements

    Author : Pär Mikaelsson Elmén; Mårten Olsson; Jan-Olov Aidanpää; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; engine; engine block vibration; engine block twist; engine block bending; vibration measurement; vibration estimation; rigid body vibrations; assumed modes; bending modes; torsion modes; system modification; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Internal combustion engines are used in many applications. The same engine type may have different components mounted to it depending upon its use. These engine mounted components need to be designed against fatigue in order to withstand the engine vibrations. Measured engine vibrations are commonly used as input data for fatigue estimation.

  4. 4. Ellipsometry studies of liquid interfaces: New methodology and applications

    Author : Jan-Willem Benjamins; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surface and boundary layery chemistry; Ytkemi; gränsskikt; phospholipids; lactoglobulin; air water; oil water; block copolymers; nonionic surfactants; Brewster angle microscopy; Ellipsometry; adsorption;

    Abstract : Adsorption of several surface active agents, such as nonionics, diblock copolymers, triblock copolymers, proteins and phospholipids at the oil/water and air/water has been studied. In order to be able to do this, a new ellipsometry setup, which utilizes light guides, was developed and tested. READ MORE

  5. 5. Postoperative pain, inflammation and functional recovery after total hip arthroplasty : Prospective, randomized, clinical studies

    Author : Jan Kuchalik; Anil Gupta; Anders Lundin; Mats Enlund; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Total hip arthroplasty; local infiltration analgesia; intrathecal morphine; femoral nerve block; postoperative pain; spinal anesthesia;

    Abstract : Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is performed in patients with osteoarthritis of the hip joint. Pain following THA is often moderate but no gold stand-ard exists for pain management. Good postoperative pain management may lead to a better quality of life and hip function. READ MORE
