1. Hot forming tribology : galling of tools and associated problems
Abstract : In recent years, the use of ultra high-strength steels (UHSS) as structural reinforcements and in energy-absorbing systems in automobiles has increased rapidly; mainly in view of their favourable strength to weight ratios. However, due to their high strength, the formability of UHSS is poor, thus complex-shaped UHSS components are invariably produced through hot-metal forming processes. READ MORE

2. Modelling Aspects in Forming and Welding of Nickel-Base Superalloys
Abstract : The reduction of fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions are currently a key factor for the aviation industry because of major concerns about climate change and more restrictive environmental laws. One way to reduce both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions is by significantly decreasing the weight of vehicles while increasing the efficiency of the engine. READ MORE

3. On Peritectic Reactions and Transformations and Hot Forming of Cast Structures
Abstract : This thesis deals with peritectic reactions and transformations that occur during the solidification of many alloys. Peritectics are believed to be a major cause of crack-formation in many steels, thus, good knowledge of the mechanisms by which these phenomena occur is essential for preventing such defects.

4. Modelling of Forming and Welding in Alloy 718
Abstract : The reduction of fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions are currently a key factor for the aviation industry due to major concerns about climate change and more restrictive environmental laws. One way to reduce both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions is by significantly decreasing the vehicle’s weight while increasing engine's efficiency. READ MORE

5. Concepts for hot sheet metal forming of titanium alloys
Abstract : To increase the competitiveness of the Swedish aero engine industry alternative manufacturing methods for load carrying aero engine structures are desired, in order to reduce product cost and enable weight reduction and thereby fuel consumption. Traditionally, these structures mainly consist of large-scaled single castings of e.g. READ MORE
