  1. 1. Friction and Wear Mechanisms of Ceramic Surfaces : With Applications to Micro Motors and Hip Joint Replacements

    Author : Johanna Olofsson; Staffan Jacobson; Håkan Engqvist; Koshi Adachi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tribology; Friction; Wear; Ceramic; Tribofilm; Alumina; Silicon nitride; Ultrasonic Motors; Hip Joint Replacement; PVD coating; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Abstract : Surfaces exposed to wear always transform and typically a layer of new structure and composition is formed. This layer, often called tribofilm, changes the friction and wear properties. READ MORE

  2. 2. Ceramic Core–Shell Particles : Synthesis and Use within Dentistry

    Author : Camilla Berg; Wei Xia; Håkan Engqvist; Nicola Döbelin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Calcium phosphate; Core-shell particles; Substituting ions; Dentin hypersensitivity; Occlusion; Mineralization; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Abstract : Dentin hypersensitivity is one of the most prevalent conditions related to oral health, affecting a large share of the adult population. Shortcomings with the available treatment options are related to non-ideal particle sizes and degradation properties. READ MORE

  3. 3. Mathematical and Experimental Study on Filtration of Solid Inclusions from Molten Aluminium and Steel

    Author : Shahin Akbarnejad; Pär Jönsson; Dong-Yuan Sheng; Björn Glaser; Torbjörn Carlberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Filtration; Porous Media; Permeability; Water modeling; Fluid Bypassing; Stacked Filters; Ceramic Foam Filter; Monolithic Ceramic Filter; Alumina CFF; Particle Tracing; Aluminum Filtration; Steel Filtration; CFD; Alumina Inclusion; Filtrering; porösa medier; permeabilitet; vattenmodellering; vätskebypass; staplade filter; keramiskt skumfilter; monolitiskt keramiskt filter; aluminiumoxid CFF; partikelspårning; aluminiumfiltrering; stålfiltrering; CFD; aluminiumoxidinkludering; Materials Science and Engineering; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Aluminum and steel have been the most produced metal and alloy, respectively, for many years. Their extensive use in various industries, their fundamental role in our everyday life, and their excellent recycling characteristics are the major driving forces for development of their production towards more sustainable processes.

  4. 4. Shaping Macroporous Ceramics : templated synthesis, X-ray tomography and permeability

    Author : Linnéa Andersson; Lennart Bergström; Ludwig Gauckler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Alumina; ceramic; CO2 capture; colloidal processing; expandable microspheres; gel casting; layer-by-layer; macroporosity; near-net shape; non-destructive evaluation; permeability; porosity; sacrificial templating; X-ray computed tomography; Chemistry; Kemi; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Macroporous ceramic materials have found widespread technological application ranging from particulate filters in diesel engines, tissue engineering scaffolds, and as support materials in carbon capture processes. This thesis demonstrates how the pore space of macroporous alumina can be manipulated, analysed in three-dimensions (3D) using visualisation techniques, and functionalised with a CO2-adsorbing material.

  5. 5. Interface Defeat and Penetration: Two Modes of Interaction between Metallic Projectiles and Ceramic Targets

    Author : Patrik Lundberg; Bengt Lundberg; Charles E. Anderson Jr.; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering physics; projectile; target; impact; interface defeat; penetration; tungsten; ceramic; replica scaling; Teknisk fysik; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : Ceramics constitute an important group of low-density armour materials. Their high intrinsic strength makes it possible to design ceramic armour systems capable of defeating projectiles directly on the ceramic surface. READ MORE
