$ v8 |" q% \* E% jPhD in Tribology: Steel Surfaces with Enhanced Tactile Feel
8 ?. i' x! w- A- ZHave 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.
# }& u9 {4 S, [* _9 U) R
; X& J4 i* ~; I. K" TThe 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.9 f; C9 m" d( Y/ A! f9 ^9 f3 ?
; \: _1 v! M: V0 YThe 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.* T! [2 x4 ~) z+ Y! D4 E; u8 E
