  1. 1. Accuracy, efficiency and robustness for rigid particle simulations in Stokes flow

    Author : Anna Broms; Anna-Karin Tornberg; Mattias Sandberg; Eric Keaveny; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stokes flow; rigid particles; accuracy; fundamental solutions; method of images; multiblob; contact avoiding; complementarity problem; barrier method; elliptic PDE; grid optimisation; pair-correction; boundary integral equations; Stokesflöde; noggrannhet; stela partiklar; fundamentallösningar; randintegralekvation; reflektionspunkter; multiblob; kontaktundvikande algoritmer; komplementaritetsproblem; barriärmetod; elliptisk PDE; gridoptimering; parkorrektion; Numerical Analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : The thesis concerns simulation techniques for systems of nano- to micro-scaled rigid particles immersed in a viscous fluid, ubiquitous in nature and industry. With negligible fluid inertia, the set of PDEs known as the Stokes equations can be used to model the hydrodynamics. READ MORE

  2. 2. Thermal System Analysis : heat transfer in glass forming and fluid temperature-control systems

    Author : Karl Storck; Rolf Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Thermal system analyses are often required, and conducted, in engineering problems in almost all engineering disciplines. The methods employed vary a great deal and must be specially adapted for each situation. Basically, two different methods are used, namely distributed modelling and lumped parameter modelling.

  3. 3. Transient elastohydrodynamic lubrication : Effects of geometry, surface roughness, temperature, and plastic deformation

    Author : Tobias Hultqvist; Roland Larsson; Pär Marklund; Wassim Habchi; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : The urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in combination with an increased use of sustainable energy resources have led to immense efforts on improving energy efficiency of mechanical systems. Consequently, modern machine elements are typically lubricated with low viscosity oils and designed to endure an increasingly high power density. READ MORE

  4. 4. Lubrication mechanisms and properties of non-halogenated orthoborate ionic liquids

    Author : Patrick Rohlmann; Sergei Glavatskih; Mark W. Rutland; Oleg N Antzutkin; Ali Erdemir; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ionic Liquids; Friction; Wear; Viscosity; Density; Additive; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : One way to reduce energy consumption and waste - a necessity to achieve the UN-mandated limitation of average global temperature in-creases - is to select suitable lubricants so that energy-losses through friction and wear are minimised. In this context, non-halogenated ionicliquids (ILs) are promising candidates to achieve this aim due to their intrinsic ionic properties, low vapour pressure and high thermal stability. READ MORE

  5. 5. Sustainable Lubrication and Tribotronics enabled by Ionic Materials

    Author : Akepati Bhaskar Reddy; Sergei Glavatskih; Mark W. Rutland; Nicholas Spencer; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable lubrication; ionic liquid; tribotronics; lubricating grease; neutron reflectance; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Developments in machine design play a crucial role in the global endeavor towards sustainability. The potential for energy conservation and emission reduction has pushed lubrication research to the forefront, with the lubricant considered to be a vital machine component. READ MORE
