Kalra, A. (author)The start-up and shut-down cycling of a heavy-duty truck engine leads to temperature and mechanical strain variations in the exhaust manifold, subjecting it to thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) damage. For the automotive manufacturers, it is essential to accurately predict the TMF lifetimes of the exhaust manifolds under service conditions. The...master thesis 2016

SHANKAR, SID (author)This thesis is a comparative study of the Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue (TMF) performance of different grades of SiMo nodular cast iron for heavy-duty diesel engine exhaust gas manifold applications. The TMF performance of the current SiMo variant used to manufacture exhaust manifolds - SiMo 5.10 (C-3.25Si-4.45Mo-0.76), is compared with that of the...master thesis 2018
