  2. 16. On the hot crack formation during solidification of iron-base alloys

    Author : Karin Hansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : hot cracking; hot tearing; cracking fracturing ; tearing; ductility; brittleness; embrittlement; fractures; ductile brittle transition; solidification; iron; copper; nickel; Invar; steels; free machining steels; stainless steels; penetration; crack;

    Abstract : Hot cracking during solidification is a severe problem inmany casting processes, for example in continuous casting.Combinations of low strength and low ductility of the materialat high temperatures and applied tensile stress can cause hotcracking. READ MORE

  4. 17. High temperature galling : influencing parameters and mechanisms

    Author : Leonardo Pelcastre; Jens Bergström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements; Centrumbildning - Centrum för högpresterande stål CHS ; Centre - Centre for High Performance Steel CHS ;

    Abstract : Damage of forming tools at elevated temperatures is a major problem in metal forming processes such as hot stamping. Of special importance is the occurrence of adhesion and gross material transfer from the work-piece to the tool surface, a phenomenon known as galling. READ MORE

  5. 18. Challenges in Resistance Welding of Ultra High Strength Steels

    Author : Erik Tolf; Arne Melander; Zuheir Barsoum; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Resistance welding; spot welding; surface cracks; nut welding; UHSS; projection welding; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : Increasing the use of Ultra High Strength Steels (UHSS) in vehicle bodystructures is important for reducing weight and cutting CO2 emissions. This thesis investigates challenges in resistance welding that can be a barrier to implementing UHSS as a replacement for low strength steels in vehicle structures. READ MORE

  6. 19. Fatigue properties of cut and welded high strength steels : Quality aspects in design and production

    Author : Thomas Stenberg; Zuheir Barsoum; Kenneth Alasdair MacDonald; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Welding; Fatigue assessment; Cutting; Weld quality; Fatigue design; Fracture Mechanics; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis concerns fatigue of welded structures. Welding is one of the world’s most common joining methods and it is frequently used in several structural applications in many fields. Some examples are construction vehicles, loader cranes, trucks, busses, forestry and agricultural machines, bridges and ships. READ MORE

  7. 20. Tribology of hot forming tool and high strength steels

    Author : Jens Hardell; Robert J. K. Wood; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : Tribological research pertaining to moving machine components operating at elevated temperatures has so far received only limited attention despite the fact that many technological applications encounter high-temperature conditions. Examples of such applications can be commonly found in the aerospace, power generation and hot metal working industries. READ MORE
