  1. 1. MECHANICAL PROPERTIES AND TESTING OF A HYBRID COMPOSITE MATERIAL

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : ARJUN ANIL; JEEVAN JOSEPH; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A composite is a structural material that consists of two or more combined constituents at amacroscopic level and are not soluble in each other. One constituent is called the reinforcingphase and the other in which it is embedded is called the matrix. The reinforcing phasematerial may be in the form of fibres, particles, or flakes to name a few. READ MORE

  2. 2. Towards a sustainable substitute for Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) in automotive industry

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Amalia Christoula; [2023]
    Keywords : Polylactide PLA ; Biobased; Life Cycle Analysis LCA ; Impact modifiers; Lignocellulose nanofibers LCNF; Polylaktid PLA ; Biobaserad; Livscykelanalys LCA ; Slagtålighet; Nanofibrer av lignocellulosa LCNF ;

    Abstract : Syftet med detta examensarbete var att utveckla ett hållbart ersättningsmaterial till akrylnitrilbutadienstyren plast (ABS), genom att applicera principerna för grön kemi och teknik. ABS är en icke-nedbrytbar plast som till exempel används i slagtåliga produkter för hyttinteriörer. READ MORE

  3. 3. Embedment Behavior of Steel Dowel in Timber Loaded Perpendicular to the Grain : Influence of Assembly History in Combination with Moisture Change and Cyclic Loading

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Mojtaba Khalili; [2023]
    Keywords : Embedment strength; elastic and plastic embedment stiffness; moisture content; swelling and shrinkage; steel dowel; assembly history; cyclic loading;

    Abstract : The embedment behavior of dowels in timber structures, as an essential parameter in the design of connections, is the subject of this thesis. There are numerous advantages using timber structures, including sustainability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. READ MORE

  4. 4. Mechanical Design, Analysis, and Manufacturing of Wind Tunnel Model and Support Structure

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Luis Alfonso Penela Guerrero; [2022]
    Keywords : Aerospace; wind tunnel testing; lightweight structures; UAV; composite materials; Flyg; vindtunneltestning; Lättkonstruktioner; UAV; kompositmaterial;

    Abstract : The use of wind tunnel models for aerodynamic research is nowadays indispensable to aviation progress in the last years as aircrafts have become more complex. Wind tunnel model design and manufacturing has adopted many different processes and materials such as the use of a five-axis CNC; making this process a relatively long and expensive one. READ MORE

  5. 5. Exploring flexible structures in 3D-printed bio-based materials to closely mimic the properties of foam

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Fredrik Sinclair; [2021]
    Keywords : CAD; Design; Product Development; Foam; Additive Manufacturing; Structure; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Plastic is used for an enormous number of products worldwide, one of these being conventional foam. This foam can be found in everything from an office chair to a sponge. To be able to move away from non-renewable sources in hope of protecting our planet we need to find alternatives materials and manufacturing methods for these products. READ MORE
