2. 1. Hydrophobic surfaces: Effect of surface structure on wetting and interaction forces

   Author : Petra M Hansson; Per M. Claesson; Agne Swerin; Adam C Simonsen; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrophobic surface; superhydrophobic surface; atomic force microscopy; surface forces; capillary forces; cavitaion; surface roughness; friction; wetting; confocal Raman; contact angles; surface preparation; Langmuir-Blodgett;

   Abstract : The use of hydrophobic surfaces is important for many processes both in nature and industry. Interactions between hydrophobic species play a key role in industrial applications such as water-cleaning procedures and pitch control during papermaking but they also give information on how to design surfaces like hydrophobic mineral pigments.

4. 2. 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

5. 3. On Characterization and Optimization of Surface Topography in Additive Manufacturing Processes

   Author : AMOGH VEDANTHA KRISHNA; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; areal surface texture parameters; additive manufacturing; power spectral density; vat-photopolymerization; laser-based Powder bed fusion; fused deposition modeling; profile parameters; feature-based characterization; and multiple regression.; scale-sensitive fractal analysis; surface metrology;

   Abstract : With its ability to construct components through the layer-by-layer deposition of material, Additive Manufacturing (AM), more commonly known as "3D printing", has revolutionized the manufacturing industries. Not only can AM produce complex lightweight designs, but it can also streamline the supply chain, allowing businesses to more quickly and easily meet customer demand. READ MORE

6. 4. On Deterministic feature-based Surface Analysis

   Abstract : Manufacturing sector is continuously identifying opportunities to streamline production, reduce waste and improve manufacturing efficiency without compromising product quality. Continuous improvement has been the primary objective to produce acceptable quality products and meet dynamic customer demands by using advanced techniques and methods. READ MORE

7. 5. Methods for Characterisation of Pressing Die Surfaces

   Author : Johan C Berglund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finish milling; scale-sensitive fractal analysis; surface characterisation; polishing; functional correlation; : pressing dies; functional filtration; surface roughness; functional surface;

   Abstract : Design and manufacture of dies and moulds is a critical aspect of many production systems since the manufacturing and try-out of new dies and moulds often is essential in determining the lead-time and quality of a new production system. In the automotive industry, many new car models are introduced each year and for each of these models, a new set of pressing dies has to be designed and manufactured. READ MORE
