  2. 1. A mechanical model of an axial piston machine

    Author : Rasmus Löfstrand Grip; Ulf Sellgren; Niclas Strömberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-body mechanical model; axial piston; Z-shaft; wobble plate; Sophia; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : A mechanical model of an axial piston-type machine with a so-called wobble plate and Z-shaft mechanism is presented. The overall aim is to design and construct an oil-free piston expander demonstrator as a first step to realizing an advanced and compact small-scale steam engine system. READ MORE

  4. 2. Friction in Piston Ring - Cylinder Liner Contacts

    Author : Markus Söderfjäll; Peder Klit; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : With today’s striving towards reduction of fuel consumption it is moreimportant than ever to understand the function of different componentsin the internal combustion engine. There is a need to develop and usetools to investigate and predict the result of specific design changesmade on the components. READ MORE

    Author : Waqas Arshad; KTH; []
    Keywords : Free-piston generators; linear machines; transverse-flux machines; hybrid vehicles; electrical machines design;

    Abstract : The presented work is about a new low-leakage lineartransverse-flux electrical machine.The machine is dimensionedfor a free-piston generator. The intended application is inseries-hybrid vehicles. The free-piston generator is anintegration of a free-piston combustion engine with a linearelectrical machine. READ MORE

  6. 4. Design principles for noise reduction in hydraulic piston pumps : simulation, optimisation and experimental verification

    Author : Andreas Johansson; Kevin Edge; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : hydraulic piston pumps; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Noise reduction in hydmulic systems has been an important research topic for several decades. In recent years, industry's interest in the area has grown dramatically. The reason is new national and international requirements and legislation governing working conditions. READ MORE

  7. 5. Attenuation of hand-held machine vibrations. Application of non-linear tuned vibration absorber

    Author : Hans Lindell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Impact machine; Hand-arm vibration; High frequency vibration; ATVA; Nonlinear tuned vibration absorber; White finger; HAVS; Transient vibration; Auto Tuned Vibration Absorber; Vibration dynamics; ISO 5349;

    Abstract : Vibration injury in the hand-arm system from vibrating hand-held machines is one of the most common occupational health injuries and causes severe and often chronic nerve and vascular injuries to the operator. The objective with this study is to contribute to reduce hand-arm vibration injuries, first by developing methods of redesigning machines that will lower their vibration level and second to study how high frequency vibrations (HFV) above 1250 Hz effect the finger tissue which are not included in the current standard for risk evaluation.
