1. Hydroacoustic Modelling of Podded Propulsion System : Underwater Radiated Noise Prediction Using ANSYS
University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanikAbstract : Ocean noise pollution is an invisible but growing threat. There are many sources of sound in the ocean but human underwater radiated noise, in particular from shipping is one of the most prominent one. Ocean noise pollution can interfere or sometimes even directly harm marine life. READ MORE

2. Attenuation of structure-borne vibrations induced by trains passing railway switches
University essay from KTH/Marcus Wallenberg Laboratoriet MWLAbstract : The study of structure-borne vibrations caused by railway traffic is becoming increasingly relevant along with the expansions of cities, as building projects are forced towards more sensitive areas, e.g closer to railway tracks. With high enough vibration levels, there is a risk for human annoyance inside buildings. READ MORE

3. Response of Footbridges equipped with TLD : A numerical and experimental assessment
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : In recent years, an increase to design slender and aesthetically-pleasing structures have resulted in some structures having a low natural frequency. This is because the design calculation did not meet the requirement of serviceability performance. READ MORE

4. Dynamic analyses of hollow core slabs : Experimental and numerical analyses of an existing floor
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : For intermediate floors in residential and office buildings, as well as in parking garages and malls, there is a wide use of hollow core concrete slabs in Sweden today. Hollow core slabs are precast and prestressed concrete elements with cylindrical-shaped voids extending along the length of the slab. READ MORE

5. Transmission of Vibrations in Precast Concrete Slabs
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Dynamic loads have historically not been a troubled area for concrete floors, foremostbecause of the high self-weight compared to the dynamic load. With new technical andcalculation achievements during the last decades concrete floors have become longerand more slender. READ MORE
