  1. 11. Investigation of methods to analyse global stability of a reinforced concrete stabilising core

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Evelina Husak; Ellinor Persson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Ensuring the structural stability of a building is an evident requirement for the building to be safe to use. This becomes a qualified task for a structural engineer. Ensuring stability has become especially important nowadays while stabilising elements often are kept to a minimum and tall buildings are common. READ MORE

  3. 12. Towards sustainable shipping: Recommendations for the telescopic mast design of a sailing cargo vessel

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Lukas Blau; [2021]
    Keywords : Oceanbird; telescopic mast; conceptual design; sailing cargo vessel;

    Abstract : A comparative study is carried out to investigate the most promising route towardsthe lightweight construction of a retractable mast for a sailing cargo vessel.Four design families are developed and compared. The primary criteria forjudgment are the structural mass, strength, and stiffness in relation to a providedbenchmark design. READ MORE

  4. 13. The influence of post-buckling damage on the tensile properties of single wood pulp fibers

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Raphael Andreolli; [2021]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; single fiber testing; wood pulp fibers; post-buckling damage; experiments; development of testing methods; tensile properties; tensile stiffness; tensile strength; Hållfasthetslära; enskild fiber testning; pappersmassa fiber; skada efter knäckning; experiment; utveckling av testutrustning; dragegenskaper; dragstyvhet; draghållfasthet;

    Abstract : The rapid growth of plastic waste from food packaging around the world demands renewable substitutes, such as natural fibers and biocomposites. Wood fibers are natural fibers extracted from trees and are commonly used in packaging. READ MORE

  5. 14. Reduced stress method for steel in class 4 cross-sections : Evaluation of the reduced stress method for a railway bridge

    University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och design

    Author : Therese Badrous; Ebba Lund; [2021]
    Keywords : FEM; Reduced stress method; Effective cross-section method; Local buckling; Steel cross-section; Class 4 cross-section; Railway bridge; FEM; Reducerad spänningsmetoden; Effektivt tvärsnittsmetoden; Lokal buckling; Ståltvärsnitt; Tvärsnittklass 4; Järnvägsbro;

    Abstract : The effective cross-section method, also called reduced cross-section method is generally used for steel in class 4 cross-sections in considering local buckling. This method is a bit complicated and time consuming, which often leads to engineers not using profiles in class 4 cross-sections. READ MORE

  6. 15. Stability of building structures using NLFEA including second order effects : Applications with the software ATENA-GiD

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Alexandros Petkoglou; [2021]
    Keywords : Non-linear analysis; second order effects; prefabricated buildings; ATENA; GiD; slip connection; Icke-linjär analys; andra ordnings effekter; förtillverkade byggnader; prefabricerade byggnader; ATENA; GiD; glidkoppling;

    Abstract : In Sweden, prefabrication in the construction industry is a very common system. In prefabricated structures, there are various kinds of connections and generally many hinged connections. Therefore, it is of high interest to study the behavior of the prefabricated buildings in relation to the connections. READ MORE
