PhD in Tribology: Steel Surfaces with Enhanced Tactile Feel/ C7 y. }$ c( |9 h' H7 U# j
Have you ever thought of creating your own surface out of stainless steel? We are looking for pro-active researchers who have that dream and willing to devoting themselves into creating new sheet surface with predefined feel like soft, smooth or silky. 4 P# R# H. N- Z) o6 ~* x" Z7 W) J4 m
1 s9 [! C) G; gThe relative importance of the surface roughness of steel sheet is well recognized by the leading steel manufacturers. It is well known that surface texturing can be used as a means for improving the performance of components exposed to friction and wear. A surface finish with a soft silky feel has a high potential to increase sales within the domestic and automotive appliances domains. While current knowledge on the relation between contact mechanics, tribology and human tactile perception is relatively limited.- g, U0 c* g+ t8 l/ f8 |
9 t! Q9 H5 ~, uThe objective of this PhD project is to produce steel sheet with pre-defined human perception of the surface roughness in an economic, clean and safe way. You are expected to do a combination of advanced predictive simulations and experimental work on skin – roughness interactions, aimed at understanding friction at the interface. A translation to touch is done with panel testing.) M, `% U8 ?5 w: z1 P" W
