  1. 1. Optimization of diagonal stiffeners to handle wind pressures on silos

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för maskin- och materialteknik

    Author : Max Hellberg; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this report the focus is set on how to optimize the support structure of a silo and in particular, the stiffeners and fastener. The main force of the silo comes from the wind pressures. The design is subjected to the Swedish and European standards SS-EN 199-1-4:2005, 1993-1-1:2005 and 1990. READ MORE

  3. 2. Ultra-light weight design through additive manufacturing

  6. 5. Patch loading resistance of welded I-beams : with respect to misaligned web stiffeners

    University essay from KTH/Stålbyggnad

    Author : John-Alexander Boutzas; Dafina Zeka; [2016]
    Keywords : Patch loading; Stiffeners; I-beam; Plated steel structures; Abaqus; Simply supported beam;

    Abstract : When a concentrated load is introduced perpendicular to the flanges of a steel beam, this condition is referred to as Patch loading (Gozzi, 2007). This occurrence is common in many steel structures, for example at supports or during launching of bridges. READ MORE
