  2. 21. Deformation Behaviour of A356-T7 Cast Aluminium Alloys Used in High Specific Power IC Engine Cylinder Heads

    Author : Elanghovan Natesan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aluminium alloys; fatigue; constitutive models; thermo-mechanical fatigue; a356; cylinder head;

    Abstract : The constant development drive towards higher specific power and lower displacement engines in recent years to produce environmentally friendly high-performance cars has placed increasingly high thermal loads on the internal combustion engine materials. Further, the advent of hybrid power trains placing higher demands on quick starts and a rapid approach to maximum power necessitates the automotive industry to move towards a more robust computational thermo-mechanical fatigue life prediction methodology to develop reliable engines and reduce developmental costs.

  4. 22. Design and Characterization of 1.3-1.6 µm Metamorphic Materials and Lasers on GaAs

    Author : Ivar Tångring; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Semiconductor laser; molecular beam epitaxy; InGaAs quantum well; graded buffer layer; metamorphic heterostructures;

    Abstract : The development of fiber-optical networks for broad-band access is expected to create a huge market for laser transmitters in the 1.3-1.55 µm wavelength range. The existing InP-based lasers have poor temperature stability. READ MORE

  5. 23. Metamorphic Heterostructures and Lasers on GaAs

    Author : Ivar Tångring; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metamorphic heterostructures; InGaAs quantum well; graded buffer layer; Semiconductor laser; GaAs; molecular beam epitaxy; telecom laser;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to demonstrate the metamorphic growth of heterostructure lasers on GaAs substrates. Many heterostructure devices have their performance limited by the need to grow on lattice-matched substrates. READ MORE

  6. 24. Asian monsoon over mainland Southeast Asia in the past 25 000 years

    Author : Akkaneewut Chabangborn; Barbara Wohlfarth; Karen Kohfeld; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asian monsoon; ITCZ; palaeo-vegetation; palaeoclimate; lake sediment; Last Glacial Maximum; Holocene; Marine Geoscience; marin geovetenskap;

    Abstract : The objective of this research is to interpret high-resolution palaeo-proxy data sets to understand the Asian summer monsoon variability in the past. This was done by synthesizing published palaeo-records from the Asian monsoon region, model simulation comparisons, and analysing new lake sedimentary records from northeast Thailand. READ MORE

  7. 25. Laser metal fusion and deposition using wire feedstock : Process modelling and CFD simulation

    Author : Seyyed Mohammad Ali Noori Rahim Abadi; Isabelle Choquet; Fredrik Sikström; Norbert Enzinger; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Directed Energy Deposition with wire; Beam shaping; Absorptivity; Conduction-mode; Free surface deformation; Computational Fluid Dynamics; OpenFOAM.; Riktad energideponering med svetstråd; Stråformning; Absorption; Svetsning; Ytdeformation; Beräkningsströmningsdynamik; OpenFOAM.; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Laser metal fusion is widely used in production technology to manufacture parts, as in welding, cladding, and additive manufacturing. In this study, conduction mode laser metal fusion is applied without and with metal deposition from a wire feedstock. READ MORE
