  1. 1. On wear of wood-cutting tools : Tool materials, wear mechanisms and modelling

    Author : Johan Nordström; []
    Keywords : Tool material; Wood cutting; Wear; Modelling;

    Abstract : Bandsaw blades are commonly used in the sawmill industry for timber cutting. The saw teeth are gradually worn during cutting and will finally cause unacceptable surface roughness and dimensional deviations on the sawn wood product. Maintenance by re-sharpening of the saw teeth is therefore necessary after a certain time of sawing. READ MORE

  2. 2. Control of Wear-Resistance Properties in Ti-added Hypereutectic High Chromium Cast Iron

    Author : Qiang Liu; Pär Jönsson; Keiji Nakajima; José Tinoco; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High Chromium Cast Iron; cooling rate; Ti addition; M7C3; TiC; carbides size distributions; volume fraction; heat treatment; microstructure; mechanical properties; wear resistance;

    Abstract : High chromium cast iron (HCCI) is considered as one of the most useful wear resistance materials and their usage are widely spread in industry. The wear resistance and mechanical properties of HCCI mainly depend on type, size, number, morphology of hard carbides and the matrix structure (γ or α). READ MORE

  3. 3. A Ni3Al-alloy and its Composites as Potential Wear Resistant Materials for Advanced Applications

    Author : Karin Anne Xia Gong; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Abrasive wear; Intermetallic matrix composite; Friction coefficient; Wear-resistant materials.; Nickel aluminide; Specific wear rate; Sliding wear;

    Abstract : The Ni3Al-based intermetallic alloys as engineering materials in service, they may be subjected to a wear environment of some sort. Hence, it is technologically important to understand the tribological response and to determine methodologies to improve wear resistance of these advanced materials. READ MORE

  4. 4. Tribology at the Cutting Edge : A Study of Material Transfer and Damage Mechanisms in Metal Cutting

    Author : Julia Lundberg Gerth; Urban Wiklund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Tribology; Metal cutting; Gear hobbing; Wear; Coating; Residual stress; Material transfer; Steel; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Abstract : The vision of this thesis is to improve the metal cutting process, with emphasis on the cutting tool, to enable stable and economical industrial production while using expensive tools such as hobs. The aim is to increase the tribological understanding of the mechanisms operating at a cutting edge and of how these can be controlled using different tool parameters. READ MORE

  5. 5. Electrical and Frictional Performance of Tin-Coated Contacts Exposed to Wear and Fretting Corrosion

    Author : Tag Hammam; Åke Öberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Friction; Fretting; Wear; Contact resistance; Tin; Connectors; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : The complexity of electronic systems in vehicles is rapidly increasing, and as a consequence, the long-term reliability of automotive connectors has become an important issue. The aims of this thesis have been: 1. to characterize the friction, wear and electrical properties of tin coatings, 2. READ MORE
