  1. 1. Methods for numerical analysis of soil-structure interaction

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Elias Lager; Pontus Karlsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : All buildings need a foundation that supports the structure. Since a layer of soil is most often in between a structure and the bedrock, a soil-structure interaction between the foundation and the soil beneath occurs. READ MORE

  3. 2. WIND TURBINE FOUNDATIONS IN CLAY : Technical and economic considerations for proposals for wind turbine foundations

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Michail Papagiannis; [2018]
    Keywords : clay; wind turbine; bored pile; monopilem; soil stratigraphy; seismic loads; DIN; Eurocode;

    Abstract : This thesis approaches the problem of the cost-efficient wind turbine foundation on an onshore site of clayey soil characteristics. The given soil stratigraphy includes a layer of clay and two sands of different density. The characteristics of the soil and the water level that were used as input come from a site in Peloponissos, Greece. READ MORE

  4. 3. Flexible Paxos : An Industry Perspective

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för programvaruteknik

    Author : MAX MELDRUM; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Paxos is an algorithm for implementing fault-tolerant distributed systems. The core of Paxos is found in many consensus algorithms. Raft and Zab are two prominent protocols that are used in the industry. They serve as the foundation of distributed key-value stores and coordination services such as Consul, Etcd and ZooKeeper.

  5. 4. FEM Modelling of Piled Raft Foundations in Two and Three Dimensions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geoteknik

    Author : André Ryltenius; [2011]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In conventional design of pile foundations, all loads are taken by the piles, i.e. the contact pressure between the raft and the soil is neglected. In the last decades geotechnical engineers have started to take this pressure into account in design of pile foundation. READ MORE
