# X- Y6 b& t' m; TPhD in Tribology: Steel Surfaces with Enhanced Tactile Feel
5 Y* A2 [; ]) z- oHave 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.
, D2 z0 z* P. D# P& }; P- w! M, ~0 v( X J
The 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.6 R: \% V* y& s# _( K# E
6 [1 j$ |+ I0 c4 _6 q5 ?The 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.5 e% K2 Y9 e3 f) }
