  1. 1. Semi-Automatic calculation of the stability of shear walls in multi-storey buildings

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Erik Bolin; Emil Sjöstedt; [2022]
    Keywords : Horizontal stabilisation; Dynamo; Shear walls; Stability; Conceptual design phase; Visual programming; Openings in shear walls; Load distribution; Relative stiffness; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Performing horizontal stability analysis in the conceptual design phase is time consuming and adjustments in the geometry of the building require new time consuming calculations. Often buildings are modelled in 3D modelling software such as Revit and Tekla but the calculations are often performed in a separate software. READ MORE

  2. 2. Parametric Studies of Train-Track-Bridge Interaction : An evaluation of the dynamic amplification due to track irregularities for freight transport

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Rasmus Elm Dahlman; Emil Lundberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Dynamics; dynamic amplification factor; railway bridge; train-track-bridge interaction; vehicle model; track irregularities; PSD; Dynamisk förstoringsfaktor; dynamik; järnvägsbroar; tåg-spår-bro interaktion; fordonsmodell; spårojämnheter; PSD;

    Abstract : In this thesis a train-track-bridge interaction (TTBI) model is developed in order to study the dynamic amplification from track irregularities on railway bridges traversed by freight trains. These simulations are of great importance since rail freight transport is expected to increase in order to meet the climate goals. READ MORE

  3. 3. Vibrations in cross-laminated timber floors : Examining standards

    University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och design

    Author : Lisette Svensson; Emma Berghem; [2020]
    Keywords : floor vibrations; CLT; timber; vibrations; FEM; Eurocode 5; Calculatis; Bjälklagsvibrationer; KL-trä; vibrationer; FEM; Eurokod 5; calculatis;

    Abstract : The report aims to investigate norms, standards, guidelines and experience within the industry for how to design CLT (cross-laminated timber) regarding vibrations induced from humans. The following is being researched, ISO137, KL-trähandboken, Eurocode 5 and a new unpublished working draft of Eurocode 5 final working draft, Canadian CLT handbook and Cross-laminated timber structural design according to Eurocode from Austria.

  4. 4. Slope Stability Evaluation from a RiskManagement Perspective : Case Study: the Slussen project in Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Louise Larsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Slope stability; shear strength; uncertainties; risk management; Släntstabilitet; Skjuvhållfasthet; riskhantering; osäkerheter;

    Abstract : Site characterization and the subsequent determination of soil strengthparameters constitute a significant part of slope stability assessment.Geotechnical engineering is always governed by great uncertainties sincethe soil properties are challenging to estimate for a large soil volume.

  5. 5. Buckling of End-Bearing Retaining Walls in Clay

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Fredrik Jansson; Nils Nilsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Berliner walls; Critical loads; buckling; finite element model; Eurocode 3; Berlinerspont; Rörspont; kritisk knäckningslast; knäckning; finit element modell; Eurocode 3;

    Abstract : The design of back-anchored retaining walls in Sweden has traditionally not included global elastic instability of the retaining wall as a possible failure mode. Eurocode 3 part 5 (SS-EN 1993-5) requires design of steel structural members for retaining walls to assess the risk of buckling if the normal force exceeds 4 % of the critical buckling load of the retaining wall.
