    Author : Borja Balbastre Camarena; [2017]
    Keywords : Floating bridge; E39 project; Fatigue Damage Evaluation; Mooring Lines; Pontoon; ANSYS.;

    Abstract : Nowadays, the Norwegian Public Roads Administration plans to replace the ferry connections along the western coast of Norway with fixed road connections through the coastal highway E39 project. Due to the necessity of bridging long distances with considerable depths, non-conventional engineering solutions are being developed. READ MORE

  3. 17. Strengthening of I-girder bridges : Fatigue endurance

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Olle Edström; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Structures have always been subjected to the detrimental consequences of the fatigue phenomenon. The consequences due to this damaging effects leads to crack initiation and the ultimate result being complete failure. Fatigue appears on structures that has to endure fluctuating loads over a long period. READ MORE

    Abstract : Syftet med projektet var att ta fram ett gånghjälpmedel för äldre som reducerade risken för fall och därmed ökade personens oberoende. Detta med avseende på både design och funktion. Användare för produkten var i första hand äldre i fjärde åldern som var i behov av gånghjälpmedel som underlättar förflyttningar. READ MORE

  5. 19. Fatigue Life Assessment of Cut Edges in High Strength Steel

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Ilona Barmicho; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The interests in more effective and lighter structures have increased the use of high strength steels for higher performances. Plate materials are optimized so thinner structures and higher material strengths are reached, this leads to the cut quality might be a new issue. READ MORE

  6. 20. Fatigue analysis of welded joints in a forestry machine : Utilizing the notch stress concept

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT); Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Martin Nyström; Tainan Pantano Tomaz; [2015]

    Abstract : Welding is one of the most applied technics in the world for joining steel. Welds are liable to the phenomenon of fatigue, which is, primarily, the formation of a crack and consequently reduction of strength due to the action of time varying loads. Fatigue is one of the main causes of failure in steel structures. READ MORE
