  1. 1. Feedback Control of Robotic Friction Stir Welding

    Author : Jeroen De Backer; Gunnar Bolmsjö; Anna-Karin Christiansson; Jorge Dos Santos; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Friction stir welding; Process automation; Temperature control; Force control; Deflection model; Robotics; Svetsning; FSW; processtyrning; temperaturstyrning; robot; utböjning; kraftstyrning; Industriell arbetsvetenskap; Industrial engineering; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : The Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process has been under constant developmentsince its invention, more than 20 years ago. Whereas most industrial applicationsuse a gantry machine to weld linear joints, there are applications which consistof complex three-dimensional joints, requiring more degrees of freedom fromthe machines.

  2. 2. Thermo-electric temperature measurements in friction stir welding : Towards feedback control of temperature

    Author : Ana Magalhães; Gunnar Bolmsjö; Jeroen De Backer; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; FSW; Robotic; Temperature; TWT; Plunge; Control; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Friction Stir Welding has seen a fast uptake in many industry segments. Mechanical properties superior to fusion welding, the ability to weld "unweldable" aluminium alloys and low distortion are often described as the main reasons for the fast industrial implementation of FSW. Most existing applications consist of long straight welding joints. READ MORE

  3. 3. Behavioral and Biological Factors Related to HIV Transmission among Female Sex Workers in Ethiopia

    Author : Minilik Demissie Amogne; Socialmedicin och global hälsa; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; FSW; HIV; Violence; HED; condom failure; Treatment failure; Drug resistance; Experience; PrEP challenge; Ethiopia;

    Abstract : Due to legal, cultural, and social factors, female sex workers (FSWs) experience anelevated level of violence, heavy alcohol consumption, and sexual abuse. Theseindividual and societal factors create a web of vulnerabilities that facilitate thespread of HIV within this population group. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Role of Microstructure in the Atmospheric Corrosion of Selected Light Alloys and Composites

    Author : Mohsen Esmaily; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; galvanic corrosion; Al content; microstructure; intermetallic particles; atmospheric corrosion; Al alloy 6xxx; casting; Mg-Al alloys; FSW P; BFSW.; Mg alloys-based MMCs;

    Abstract : Magnesium-aluminum (Mg-Al) alloys, Mg-based metal matrix composites (MMCs) and Al alloys are among the best material candidates for future lightweight solutions. However, the use of these materials is limited by a number of issues, including the ability to resist corrosion. READ MORE

  5. 5. Friction stir welding of copper canisters for nuclear waste

    Author : Therese Källgren; Rolf Sandström; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Friction Stir Welding FSW ; Copper; Welding; Finite Element Method FEM ; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : The Swedish model for final disposal of nuclear fuel waste is based on copper canisters as a corrosion barrier with an inner pressure holding insert of cast iron. One of the methods to seal the copper canister is to use the Friction Stir Welding (FSW), a method invented by The Welding Institute (TWI). READ MORE
