1. Performance of joints for glued laminated timber exposed to the ISO fire temperature curve
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : As society becomes more ecologically conscious there is a push toward the use of materials with a smaller environmental burden, one of these materials is glulam (GLT), which has gained a lot of traction in recent years not only for ecological reasons but for its ease in manufacture, transport, noise dampening, etc. The focus of this project was to evaluate the influence of different joint configurations on the fire performance of glulam members.

2. Optimizing multigrid smoothers using GLT theory
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH; Lunds universitet/MatematikcentrumAbstract : Multigrid algorithms are algorithms used to find numerical solutions to differential equations using a hierarchy of grids of different coarseness. This exploits the fact that short-wavelength components of the solutions converges at a faster rate than the long-wavelength components when using some basic iterative methods, such as the Jacobi method or the Gauss-Seidel method.
