4. PARAMETRIC STUDY FOR WALL-TO-WALL CONNECTION IN MIXED STEEL CONCRETE STRUCTURES
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : The objective of this thesis work is to study the connection between two Steel Concrete Structures (SCS) wall modules using embedded connection bars. The SCSs under investigation consist of two steel faceplates held together by tie bars, concrete is cast inside, and stress transmission between the concrete and the steel plates is provided by shear connectors as headed studs.

5. Stray capacitance study for HVDC Classic : The use of PSCAD and Mathcad to calculate the equivalent stray capacitance
University essay from Uppsala universitet/ElektricitetsläraAbstract : The reactors placed in the thyristor valve designed by Hitachi Energy have reactor losses which are dependent on the stray capacitance. To find out the stray capacitance, and further get to know the reactor losses, a PSCAD simulation is performed. READ MORE
