1. 1. Timber, Drugs or Gold: The Podium for Conflict Related Sexual Violence : A qualitative study on the impact of lootable and non lootable resources on conflict related sexual violence

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

   Author : Josefin Berg; [2024]
   Keywords : sexual violence; CRSV; natural resources; lootability;

   Abstract : Recent research has identified a correlation between differrent ways of exploiting natural resources and the occurrence of conflict-related sexual violence. In a quantitative study, extortion showed to have a high correlation with instances of conflict-related sexual violence, but the study lacked evidence for a causal relationship. READ MORE

3. 2. Hybrid bridge deck of timber and corrugated steel plates

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Muze Lu; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Over the years, hybrid structures composed of timber and steel have become a potential alternative to conventional solutions. Recently, corrugated steel plate (CSP) has become more and more popular in structures such as shear walls and roofs due to its favorable mechanical properties. READ MORE

4. 3. Novel steel hinge connection for pedestrian timber bridges : Novel steel hinge connection for pedestrian timber bridges

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Charlotte Jaeger; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This study focuses on exploring a novel timber-to-timber joint using a steel hinge connection (in this work also referred to as door-hinge joint) for pedestrian timber bridges. To conduct the cross-section design of the structural bridge members, a numerical model was developed to determine the internal forces. READ MORE

5. 4. Safety and durability of CLT-balconies

   University essay from KTH/Hållbara byggnader; KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Kevin Passian; Timothy Toresten; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The growing popularity of cross-laminated timber (CLT) in the construction industryhas resulted in a demand for research focusing on the construction and design of CLTbalconies. This paper aims to address this need by presenting a CLT balcony design aswell as investigating its structural stability and moisture safety. READ MORE

6. 5. A parametric study of the static and dynamic performance of timber arch footbridges with different hanger configurations

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : ALEJANDRO GARCÍA GARCÍA; [2022]
   Keywords : Arch bridges; footbridge dynamics; critical load; bridge typology; parametric study;

   Abstract : The influence of the hanger configuration in the arch and deck bending moments under asymmetric loads is widely used nowadays for improved designs of arch bridges. In this work, by means of a parametric study, those hanger configurations that most efficiently increase both the natural frequencies and buckling factors are identified, simultaneously evaluating the dynamic and static performance of timber arch footbridges.
