    Abstract : With a rising global demand for green energy production, hydropower plays a key role in securing a reliable and sustainable energy supply. Hydropower is the largest and most efficient renewable energy source, with an ever-increasing capacity. READ MORE

  2. 2. A Ni3Al-alloy and its Composites as Potential Wear Resistant Materials for Advanced Applications

    Author : Karin Anne Xia Gong; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Abrasive wear; Intermetallic matrix composite; Friction coefficient; Wear-resistant materials.; Nickel aluminide; Specific wear rate; Sliding wear;

    Abstract : The Ni3Al-based intermetallic alloys as engineering materials in service, they may be subjected to a wear environment of some sort. Hence, it is technologically important to understand the tribological response and to determine methodologies to improve wear resistance of these advanced materials. READ MORE

  3. 3. Synthesis, Characterization, and Evaluation of Ag-based Electrical Contact Materials

    Author : Fang Mao; Ulf Jansson; Mikael Olsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrical contact; bulk; coating; Ag-based alloys; Ag-based delafossite; AgI; graphene; graphene oxide; combinatorial material science; dc magnetron sputtering; friction; wear; hardness; contact resistance;

    Abstract : Ag is a widely used electrical contact material due to its excellent electrical properties. The problems with Ag are that it is soft and has poor tribological properties (high friction and wear in Ag/Ag sliding contacts). READ MORE

  4. 4. High Performance Manufacture of Sintered Steel – Critical Aspects of Tooling Performance and Sintered Microstructure

    Author : Sepehr Hatami; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tool Steels; Chromium Alloyed Steel; Modelling; Process Selection; Sinter-Hardening; Atmosphere; Microstructure; Galling; Pressing Dies; Wear;

    Abstract : Steel is the dominant material for the production of structural parts. By means of powder metallurgy (PM) processing, manufacturers have been able to manufacture steel parts with appreciable dimensional accuracy and desirable mechanical properties. READ MORE

  5. 5. Semi-deterministic numerical simulations of wear on various scales : From chemo-mechanical effects to the wear of components in orbital type hydraulic motors

    Author : Joel Furustig; Staffan Björklund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : A costly effect, caused by the relative motion of machine components in contact, is wear. Solid surfaces come into contact when the lubricant film thickness is thin, resulting in locally high pressures and high wear rates. Components and machines will, due to this wear, eventually lose their functionality. READ MORE
