1. 1. 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

3. 2. Analysis of Footbridge Comfort Vibrations

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

   Author : Niklas Thuresson; Henrik Ruuth; [2023]
   Keywords : footbridges; dynamics; vibrations; accelerations; Sétra; comfort vibrations; natural frequencies; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The aim of this master's thesis was to investigate and increase the knowledge of how different parameters affect the dynamic properties of steel beam bridges used for pedestrian traffic. Steel footbridges are commonly used due to their high strength and low weight. READ MORE

4. 3. Design of footbridges subjected to dynamic loading

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

   Author : Pontus Brynk; [2022]
   Keywords : Dynamic design; footbridges; SETRA; pedestrian loading; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Modern design of steel pedestrian bridges often results in relatively light constructions with low natural frequencies were there is a considerable risk of resonance to occur from loads due to pedestrians. To resolve the problem a common solution is to increase dimensions of load bearing elements, resulting in greatly oversized elements with increasing costs and have substantial environmental impact.

5. 4. HSI effects on pedestrian bridges

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Giancarlo Costa; [2021]
   Keywords : Dynamics; HSI; Human Structure Interaction; pedestrian bridge;

   Abstract : The study on Human Structure Interaction (HSI) effects represent a new research field in the design of pedestrian bridges. The presence of pedestrians on the structure affects the dynamic properties of the bridge, and these changes may be quantified in order to design pedestrian bridges in a more efficient way.

6. 5. New Passdoor for Fix Panel Industrial Gates

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

   Author : Jonathan Schulz; [2021]
   Keywords : Product development Assa Abloy; Passdoor; Industrial doors; Solid mechanics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This Master Thesis, executed in collaboration with ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems, focused on designing a new and improved secondary entrance for overhead panel industrial gates, which is part of the existing product line. The secondary entrance developed in this project is called a Passdoor, which is placed in a fixed section next to the gate and is used to separate pedestrian traffic through the industrial gate from vehicles and deliveries.
