  2. 1. On the dynamics of an hydropower generator subjected to unbalanced magnetic pull : characterisation and analysis

    Author : Yogeshwarsing Calleecharan; Rolf Gustavsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Eccentricity leading to unbalanced magnetic pull (UMP) in rotating electrical machines is a significant concern in industry. The UMP arises due to magnetic flux crossing the air-gap between the rotor and stator, and can be more intense than the useful peripheral force that the machine develops. READ MORE

  4. 2. Microstructure and property models of alloy 718 applicable for simulation of manufacturing processes

    Author : Marie Anna Moretti; Lars-Erik Lindgren; Paul Åkerström; Jörgen Kajberg; Bijish Babu; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Material characterisation; Material modelling; Alloy 718; Plasticity; Recrystallization; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on experimental characterization, understanding and modelling of nickel-based alloy 718, for a large range of loading conditions. Alloy 718 is the most widely used nickel-based superalloy, due to its high strength, high corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures. READ MORE

  5. 3. Photonic devices with MQW active material and waveguide gratings : modelling and characterisation

    Author : Nadeem Akram; Lars Thylén; Hartmut Hillmer; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Method of Lines; Grating; ARROW Waveguide; Semiconductor laser; quantum well; Photonics; Fotonik;

    Abstract : The research work presented in this thesis deals with modelling, design and characterisation of passive and active optical waveguide devices. The rst part of the thesis is related to algorithm development and numerical modelling of planar optical waveguides and gratings using the Method of Lines (MoL). READ MORE

  6. 4. Modelling and Characterisation of Granular Material Flow

    Author : Simon Larsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Granular materials are very common both in nature and in industry, and their extensive use means that there are financial incentives for increased efficiency. There are huge costs related to their use and handling, which is a major motivation for increased knowledge of the behaviour of granular materials at different loading conditions. READ MORE

  7. 5. Method Development for Characterisation of Superalloy used in Containment Design

    Author : Ted Sjöberg; Mats Oldenburg; Jörgen Kajberg; Odd Geir Lademo; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Due to the trend of increasing environmental demands put on civil aviation, manufacturersof commercial aircraft engines meet increased pressure to reduce weight. Modernturbofan engines represent up to almost one tenth of an aircraft's total weight, meaning areduction of engine component weight of just 30 kg is estimated to reduce CO2 emissionsby 400 tonnes over the lifetime of a medium sized commercial aircraft.
