  2. 1. Condition measuring and lifetime modelling of electrical power transmission equipment

    Author : Per Westerlund; Patrik Hilber; Tommie Lindquist; Carl-Ejnar Sölver; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; disconnectors; circuit breakers; reliability; lifetime; electric contacts; electric power transmission; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The electric grid is important in modern society, so the outages should be few. The transmission grid should have a real high availability, since it transports electrical energy across the country. Then, it is difficult to plan outages for maintenance and installation. READ MORE

  4. 2. On reliability and maintenance modelling of ageing equipment in electric power systems

    Author : Tommie Lindquist; Roland Eriksson; Lina Bertling; George Anders; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reliability; maintenance; electric power systems; circuit breaker; disconnector; thermography; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : Maintenance optimisation is essential to achieve cost-efficiency, availability and reliability of supply in electric power systems. The process of maintenance optimisation requires information about the costs of preventive and corrective maintenance, as well as the costs of failures borne by both electricity suppliers and customers.

  5. 3. Gear engagement control for transmissions in hybrid electric vehicles

    Author : Muddassar Piracha; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Noise and wear minimization; Dog Clutch; Hybrid Powertrain; Optimal control; LQI control; Mechanical Synchronizers; Dedicated Hybrid Transmission; Gear shifting; Drivability; Dual Clutch Transmission; Electric Powertrain; Phase plane analysis;

    Abstract : Hybrid and electric vehicles have become very important for vehicle manufacturers due to stricter legislation, government incentives and customers’ growing awareness of the environmental issues. For conventional vehicles, Dual clutch transmissions (DCT) have better shift quality and efficiency than conventional automatic transmissions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Nanomechanics – Quantum Size Effects, Contacts, and Triboelectricity

    Author : Martin Olsen; Jonas Örtegren; Håkan Olin; Per Gradin; Peter Glans; Rusen Yang; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : triboelectricity; adatom; ion; charge; mound; quantum size effect; triboelctric nanogenerator; TENG; wind driven; contact; nanomechanics; fri electron model; nanowire cantilever;

    Abstract : Nanomechanics is different from the mechanics that we experience in everyday life. At the nano-scale, typically defined as 1 to 100 nanometers, some phenomena are of crucial importance, while the same phenomena can be completely neglected on a larger scale. READ MORE

  7. 5. On reliability modelling of ageing equipment in electric power systems with regard to the effect of maintenance

    Author : Tommie Lindquist; Prof. Roland Eriksson; Dr. Lina Bertling; Docent Carl-Ejnar Sölver; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical power technology; Maintenance; reliability modelling; electrical power systems; ageing; failure mechanisms; Elkraftteknik; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : Power system maintenance optimisation involves obtaining the minimum total costs, including preventive and corrective maintenance costs and the cost of failures for both supplier and customer. To calculate the cost of failure, information is needed about the equipment reliability characteristics. READ MORE
