1. Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue Assessment of Marine Boiler : Using linear Finite Element Analyses
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)Abstract : This thesis is on fatigue crack growth assessments of a thermomechanical loaded Marine Boiler- Sunrod CPDB12. The installation position of the marine boiler in the ship in relation to its fatigue life under mode 1 loading is investigated. READ MORE

2. Estimation of Fatigue Life for Welded Gears Using LEFM
University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära (Avd.)Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to estimate the high cycle fatigue life of welds using finite element methods and liner elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). Develop a new method of calculating the fatigue life that can replace the old method in use today at GKN Driveline. This is a continuation of an earlier master thesis1. READ MORE

3. Stress Analysis of Different Shaped Holes on a Packaging Material
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknikAbstract : In packaging industries, the demand for usage of Low Density Poly Ethylene foil is of profound interest. In the past, research was carried out on finite and infinite plates with varying crack lengths but having constant crack width. In this thesis, a detailed analysis on crack initiation is carried out on finite plates by varying width of the hole. READ MORE

4. Accuracy Study in Predicting Fatigue Life for a Welding Joint.
University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära (Inst.)Abstract : This thesis describes a comparative study between two calculations methods for life estimates of a welding joint. The two studied methods are the Effective Notch and Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM). The effective notch method is today used at GKN and gives an equitable accuracy relative the work effort for the method. READ MORE

5. Design Method for Strut-Beam Connection in Hinged Frames
University essay from Lunds universitet/ByggnadsmekanikAbstract : Glulam is almost exclusively the chosen material of timber frame structures. Of those, three-hinged (three-pin) portal frames are incomparably the most common type. Being both statically determinate and stable against horizontal forces in its own plane offer both practical (basic constructive details) and economical benefits. READ MORE
