  1. 1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Holger Berggren; Bergstedt Ola; [2024]
    Keywords : shear connector; post-installed; coiled spring pins; composite girder; partial composite action; finite element method;

    Abstract : Many of the existing steel-concrete bridges may need to be strengthened, as heavier vehicles areallowed on the Swedish roads. These bridges could possibly be strengthened by post-installingshear connectors. The shear connectors may enhance the load-bearing capacity through a higherdegree of composite action between the steel and concrete interface. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluation of a computational method for natural fiber-reinforced plastics

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Anna Lim; [2023]
    Keywords : PPNF; Composite material; fiber orientation; natural fiber; coupled analysis; PPNF; Kompositmaterial; fiberorientering; naturfiber; kopplad analys;

    Abstract : The importance of using natural fiber composites (NFCs) has been addressed as a substitution for synthetic fibers, such as glass and carbon fibers. This substitution contributes significantly to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with the environmental responsibilities of engineering industries. READ MORE

  4. 3. Analysis of combined response of railway bridge and track : A parametric finite element model of the bridge across Bryngeån

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Moa Nolinder; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : When designing a railway bridge it is common to consider and designthe bridge structure and the track structure separately. However, theyare connected and that interaction generates a combined response and aforce transfer between them. READ MORE

  5. 4. Mechanical and thermal buckling analysis of laminated composite plates

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Aswin Paremmal; Roopak Kuruthukulangara Varghese; [2023]
    Keywords : composite material; Mechanical Buckling; Buckling analysis;

    Abstract : Composite laminated structures have many application fields such as aerospace, civil, marine, bio medical, transportation, and mechanical engineering because of their convenience in handling, and very good mechanical properties. Buckling behavior of laminated composite plates subjected to plane loads is indeed an important consideration in the primary design of aircraft and launch vehicle components. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modeling of a ball contact with a coated plate

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Mohammadreza Saeedi; [2023]
    Keywords : Pin on disc tribometer; coating; contact mechanics; finite element method; tribology; Pin on disc tribometer; beläggning; kontaktmekanik; finita elementmetod; tribologi;

    Abstract : During tightening of a screw, the variation in friction will affect the force acting on the joint, especially when tightening using torque as a control parameter. So, it is crucial to have a proper understanding of the contact mechanism and friction in the screw head to joint and thread interfaces. READ MORE
