1. Effects of materials and texturing on wettability of ski base
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikSammanfattning : Cross-country skiing has turned into the most highly competitive winter sport, with skiers having the ability to win by merely milliseconds. Every year researchers, ski - technicians, and athletes come together to prepare the ski base surface that gives the best possible results. LÄS MER
2. Sustainable polymer-tribology : Developing novel multiscale thermoplastic composites using recycled high-performance fibers
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/MaskinelementSammanfattning : The transition to a Circular Economy scheme that enables a more efficient usage of the resources is one of the most pressing needs in our society. From the industrial perspective this has been translated into new design philosophies and the search for more efficient systems. LÄS MER
3. Thermomechanical characterisation of newly developed UHMWPE composites
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikSammanfattning : Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a polymer commonly used in various applications, particularly in hip joint replacements. Despite its good performance, it is susceptible to oxidation degradation, which can be mitigated with the addition of vitamin E, and to excessive wear against metal countersurfaces, which can potentially be improved with the addition of nanoparticles.

4. Tribological Performance of Hygrothermally Aged UHMWPE Hybrid Composites
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikSammanfattning : Stricter environmental regulations and trend of decreasing cost and increasing operational efficiency are the driving forces for the improvement of the tribological performance in many different industries. For example, in the case of hydropower plants, there has been increasing research carried out to achieve oil-free stations, which would substitute the oil-based lubricants with environmentally accepted lubricants or water.
