  1. 1. On modally distributed damping in heavy vehicles

    Author : Peter Holen; Annika Stensson Trigell; Zbigniew Lozia; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; damping; modal damping; chassis suspension; heavy vehicle; attachment compliance; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates passive damping system performance in heavy vehicles through analytical expressions, simulations with different vehicle models as well as through experimental evaluation in a tractor semi trailer combination. The objective is to study what levels of chassis suspension damping that are desirable for different vehicle modes and how this may be achieved with passive damping systems. READ MORE

  2. 2. Vibration mitigation of high-speed railway bridges : Application of damping devices in theory and practice

    Author : Sarah Tell; Raid Karoumi; Andreas Andersson; Ülker-Kaustell Mahir; José Maria Goicolea; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vibration mitigation; high-speed railway bridges; damping devices; retrofit; numerical analysis; hybrid simulation; field experiment; vibrationsdämpning; järnvägsbroar för höghastighetståg; dämpare; eftermonteringsmetod; numerisk analys; hybridsimulering; fältförsök; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

    Abstract : The dynamic response of railway bridges is an important aspect to consider, as the repetitive loading from passing trains may result in excessive vibrations of the bridge deck. Several design criteria are developed in order to assure the structural safety and passenger comfort during train crossings of a bridge. READ MORE

  3. 3. Improving Machining System Performance through designed-in Damping : Modelling, Analysis and Design Solutions

    Author : Lorenzo Daghini; Cornel Mihai Nicolescu; Miroslav Píška; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machining performance; Cutting stability; Passive damping; High Damping Interface; Boring bar; Turret; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion;

    Abstract : With advances in material technology, allowing, for instance, engines to withstand higher combustion pressure and consequently improving performance, comes challenges to productivity. These materials are, in fact, more difficult to machine with regards to tool wear and especially machine tool stability. READ MORE

    Abstract : At the moment of writing, an expansion of the Swedish railway network has started, by constructions of new lines for high-speed trains. The aim is to create a high-speed connection between the most populous cities in Sweden - Stockholm, Göteborg and Malmö, and the rest of Europe. READ MORE

  5. 5. High dynamic stiffness nano-structured composites for vibration control : A Study of applications in joint interfaces and machining systems

    Author : Qilin Fu; Cornel-Mihai Nicolescu; Per Nylén; KTH; []

    Abstract : Vibration control requires high dynamic stiffness in mechanical structures for a reliable performance under extreme conditions. Dynamic stiffness composes the parameters of stiffness (K) and damping (η) that are usually in a trade-off relationship. This thesis study aims to break the trade-off relationship. READ MORE
