  1. 21. Lubrication of conformal contacts with surface texturing

    Author : Samuel Cupillard; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : Conformal contacts like those found in journal or inclined slider bearings are widely encountered in various types of machines from small engines to large turbines. These contacts involve convergent gaps that are used to separate the surfaces in relative motion and generate pressure in the lubricant film. READ MORE

  2. 22. Synthetic lubricants and polymer composites for large full film journal bearings

    Author : Gregory F Simmons; Patrick De Baets; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : The rapid build-up of variable renewable power sources such as wind and solar are leading to increased instability in the electrical grid. Many methods of controlling this instability have been proposed but existing hydroelectric power plants in many cases already been enlisted to fill the regulating power needs of industry and the population.

  3. 23. An experimental investigation of spur gear efficiency and temperature : A comparison between ground and superfinished surfaces

    Author : Martin Andersson; Ulf Olofsson; Bengt-Göran Rosén; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gears; ground; superfinished; efficiency; temperature; running-in; dip lubrication; spray lubrication; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on reliability when testing gear efficiency and on how gear mesh efficiency can be increased without detrimental effects on the gears. Test equipment commonly used in gear research was analysed to identify important parameters for gear efficiency testing. READ MORE

  4. 24. Effects of unloading on skeletal muscle mass and function in man

    Author : Hans Berg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Atrophy; bedrest; concentric and isometric and eccentric muscle actions; disuse; electromyography; fatigue; fiber types and size; humans; inactivity; maximal voluntary force; recovery; skeletal muscle cross-sectional area; strength; suspension; tomog;

    Abstract : An experimental human model of skeletal muscle unloading of one lower limb and confined bedrest were employed to quantitate the adaptive responses to 10 days, 4 or 6 wk of unloading in healthy humans on quadricep skeletal muscle mass and function. Muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) was assessed using tomographic imaging (CT, MRI). READ MORE

  5. 25. Influence of postoperative treatment, surface treatment and stem design on the outcome of primary total hip arthroplasty

    Author : Truike Thien; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Primary total hip arthroplasty; anteverted stem; stem design; cemented and cementless fixation; radiostereometry; bone mineral density; clinical outcome;

    Abstract : Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of postoperative treatment, surface treatment and stem design on the outcome of primary Total Hip Arthroplasty. The main intention was to study anteverted femoral stems. READ MORE
