  1. 16. FE Modelling Of Two Femur Fixation Implants

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : Ali Arsiwala; Vatsal Shukla; [2021]
    Keywords : FEM; Femur; Image Segmentation; Material Modelling; Recon Implant; Antegrade Implant; Atypical Femoral Fracture; Intermedullary Nail;

    Abstract : In the pool of women over the age of 50, the likeliness of an atypical fracture increase drastically, partly due to osteoporosis. With a pre-existing implant in the femur bone, inserted due to a prior atypical fracture, treating a later femoral neck fracture is complex and risky. READ MORE

  3. 17. Effect of strain rate on continuum and pre-cracked polymer failure

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Pratik Rajesh Powar; Ashkan Raeisi; [2021]
    Keywords : DIC; LDPE; MCalibration; Polymer; Strain Rate;

    Abstract : The main intention of this thesis work was to investigate the effect of strain rate on continuum and pre-cracked polymer failure. Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) was chosen to study experimentally and numerically. In order to cover wide range of strain rates, four specific strain rates were selected for the uniaxial tensile tests. READ MORE

  4. 18. 2D Modelling of Geosynthetically Reinforced Piled Embankments : Calibration Methods in PLAXIS 2D & Review of Analytical Guidelines

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Maya Sleiman; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the 2D modelling of Geosyntheticaly Reinforced Piled Embankments (GRPE) in PLAXIS 2D. In doing so, it explores two main aspects: 1) the calibration of Interface Stiffness Factors (ISFs) governing the soil-pile interaction of Embedded BeamRow (EBR) elements in PLAXIS 2D, and 2) the prospects and limitations of modelling geogrids (GR) in PLAXIS 2D when underlain by EBR elements; although several studies have validates the EBR element in modelling piles, none address the geogrid-EBR interaction and its implications on modelling GRPE systems.

  5. 19. Improved methodology for postulated fuel handling accident

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

    Author : Max Fagerberg; [2020]
    Keywords : ANSYS LS-DYNA; FEM; nuclear fuel; solid mechanics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report presents a suggestion of an improved method for evaluation of a fuel handling accidents. Using a 3D FE-model and ANSYS LS-DYNA EXT the structural analysis is carried out. Importing geometry from SpaceClaim and simplifying it creates the geometry used in this analysis. READ MORE

  6. 20. Genetic and Experimental investigations of the pathogenicity of Sindbis virus genotypes.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Manish Chandra Singh; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sindbis virus (SINV) is a virus transmitted by mosquitoes. It has a wide geographical distribution covering most of Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and New Zeeland. To date, six main different types of SINV are known (genotypes), but only genotype I (SINV-I) has been linked to human disease. READ MORE
