1. Laser welding of boron steels for light-weight vehicle applications
Abstract : Laser beam welding has gained a significant interest during the last two decades. The suitability of the process for high volume production has the possibility to give a strong advantage compared to several other welding methods. However, it is important to have the process in full control since various quality issues may otherwise occur. READ MORE

2. Aerogel-based plasters for renovation of buildings in Sweden: Identification of possibilities, information deficiencies and challenges
Abstract : Aerogel-based plasters are a class of high energy efficient wall finishes with declared thermal conductivities around 30-50 mW/(m∙K). Aerogel-based plasters are promising alternatives to substitute conventional insulation materials when renovating uninsulated building envelopes. READ MORE

3. Energy simulation and life cycle costs : estimation of a building's performance in the early design phase
Abstract : Sustainable development and the protection of the environment are key issues in our society today. The building stock in Europe accounts for over 40% of the final energy consumption, CO2 emissions and generation of waste. A large part of the life cycle performance is determined early. READ MORE

5. Tribology of polymer composites for elevated temperature applications
Abstract : Polymers as construction material are common in the industry. Although more recently the use of polymer composites in more demanding applications has increased, requiring more of them mechanically, tribologically and thermally. To enhance the properties various fillers are used, from common glass fibers to more advanced nanoparticles. READ MORE
