  1. 1. Estimating inclusion content in high performance steels

    Author : Jens Ekengren; Jens Bergström; Christer Burman; Hans Nordberg; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials Engineering; Materialteknik;

    Abstract : Non-metallic inclusions in steel pose a major problem for the fatigue resistance, especially regarding fatigue at very long lives corresponding to low cyclic stress levels, as well as being detrimental to material toughness and polishability.The largest inclusions are quite rare, which makes conventional detection methods timeconsuming if reliable results are to be obtained.

  2. 2. Large and rare : An extreme values approach to estimating the distribution of large defects in high-performance steels

    Author : Jens Ekengren; Jens Bergström; Christer Burman; Thomas Svensson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Non-metallic inclusions; Tool steel; Extreme value statistics; Distribution of defects; Generalized extreme values; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : The presence of different types of defects is an important reality for manufacturers and users of engineering materials. Generally, the defects are either considered to be the unwanted products of impurities in the raw materials or to have been introduced during the manufacturing process. READ MORE

  3. 3. Towards a simulation methodology for prediction of airborne wear particles from disc brakes

    Author : Jens Wahlström; Ulf Olofsson; Jens Wahlström; KTH; []
    Keywords : Disc brakes; Airborne wear particles; Particle coefficient; Friction; Mechanical engineering; Maskinteknik;

    Abstract : During braking, both the rotor and the pads in disc brakes are worn. Since disc brakes are not sealed, some of the wear particles generated can become airborne. READ MORE

  4. 4. A study on wear characteristics of high strength steels under sliding contact

    Author : Abdulbaset Mussa; Pavel Krakhmalev; Jens Bergström; Jens Hardell; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High strength steels; thread joint wear; punch wear; sliding wear; surface cracking; reciprocal sliding; fatigue; surface delamination; white etching layer; nano-structured layer; friction; Materialteknik; Materials Engineering;

    Abstract : In the last decades, significant improvements regarding the design, materials and technology of rock drills have been made. Likewise, in sheet metal forming, forming tools experience very high contact pressures when processing high strength steel sheets. READ MORE

  5. 5. Wakes behind wind turbines - Studies on tip vortex evolution and stability

    Author : Ylva Odemark; Jens Fransson; Jens Madsen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wind power; aerodynamics; hot-wire anemometry; vortex dynamics;

    Abstract : The increased fatigue loads and decreased power output of a wind turbine placed in the wake of another turbine is a well-known problem when building new wind power farms. In order to better estimate the total power output of a wind power farm, knowledge about the development and stability of wind turbine wakes is crucial. READ MORE
