  4. 2. Surface Integrity Characterization of Gears with respect to Running-in

    Author : Dinesh Mallipeddi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; micropitting; surface asperities; running-in; surface roughness; residual stresses; Gears; surface chemistry;

    Abstract : A gearbox with gears of different sizes is part of a vehicle transmission system that plays an important part in transmitting the engine power to the wheels. The efficient energy transmission highly relies on the performance of gears. Together, the mesh efficiency and durability determines the gear performance. READ MORE

  5. 3. Non-destructive measurement of near-surface cracks in railheads : with focus on ultrasonic inspections

    Author : Rayendra Anandika; Jan Lundberg; Paul Wilcox; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rail inspection; phased array; ultrasonic testing; eddy current testing; surface cracks; non-destructive testing; NDT; railway; condition monitoring; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Abstract : Near-surface cracks in railhead that caused by rolling contact fatigue (RCF) is one of a kind rail defects that degrade rail track quality. Dependent on the trail load, the cracks can reach to severe level quickly. READ MORE

  7. 5. Cycle paths’ degradation processes and surface condition assessment

    Author : Martin Larsson; Sigurdur Erlingsson; Anna Niska; Inge Hoff; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; construction design; cycle paths; degradation; distress modes; maintenance; municipalities; survey; cycling comfort; road surface measurements; surface evenness; surface texture; Building Materials; Byggnadsmaterial;

    Abstract : A shift in modal share from car driving to cycling has many benefits, both from individual- and societal perspectives, e.g., better health from an increase in physical activity, lower levels of pollution and congestion. However, there are also some potential problems with such a shift. READ MORE
