1. 1. Fibre volume fractions’ and printing directions’ effects on tribological and mechanical properties in FDM printed carbon fibre reinforced PEEK : Suitability assessment of FDM printed PEEK-CF to act in a steam engine’s ball joint, by analysis of compressive properties, impact strength, friction and wear

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

   Author : William Tönnberg; [2022]
   Keywords : Ranotor; steam engine; PEEK; polyether-ether-ketone; carbon fibre reinforced PEEK; impact strength; compressive strength; compressive modulus; friction; wear; tribology; FFF; FDM; 3D-printing; printing parameters;

   Abstract : The purpose with this study was to investigate FDM/FFF manufactured carbon fibre reinforced PEEK and assess its suitability to act as a sealing- and bearing material in a modern steam engine’s ball joint. The steam engine is totally free from oil due to the risk of water- and steam contamination. READ MORE

3. 2. Comparative investigation of micromechanisms of plastic deformation by in-situ tensile tests of highly textured 316L steel

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Author : Subhani Kumarasinghe; [2022]
   Keywords : Additive manufacturing; texture control; plastic deformation;

   Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) is identified as one of the best techniques in manufacturing components addressing most of the current challenges including material scarcity, design complexity, material compatibility, etc. Stainless steel 316L is one of the promising material candidates in AM due to its extraordinary properties that are useful in a wide variety of industries.

4. 3. Shear Failure of Steel Fiber and Bar Reinforced Concrete Beams Without Stirrups : Predictions based on Nonlinear Finite Element Analyses

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : David Andersson; [2022]
   Keywords : Nonlinear finite element analysis; Shear failure; Fiber reinforced concrete beams; ATENA;

   Abstract : Shear failure in concrete beams are often brittle in nature and potentially dangerous without adequatereinforcing measures. In design of concrete, it is commonly recommended to install transversalreinforcement along the shear span to induce a more ductile structural response, improving the shearcapacity all together and providing sufficient warning prior to collapse.

5. 4. Effects of Temperature and Moisture Content on Young’s Modulus in Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

   Author : Joel Sandberg; Samuel Sjölin; [2022]
   Keywords : Polyamide; nylon 66; PA66GF25; glassfiber reinforced polyamide; Young’s modulus; Polyamid; nylon 66; PA66GF25; glasfiberförstärkt polyamid; Youngs modul.;

   Abstract : This thesis was made in cooperation with Roxtec. Roxtec specialises in cable sealingsolutions and are world leading in their area. In many of Roxtec’s products steel isused in the frame holding the sealing rubber. To lower Roxtec’s environmental foot-print plastic would be used instead in the frames if possible, more specific polyamide6. READ MORE

6. 5. Structural strengthening and sustainability improvements of existing buildings – A case study

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Pardis Niknafs; [2022]
   Keywords : Building retrofit; structural strengthening; energy efficiency; environmental impact; integrated and sustainable intervention; cross-laminated timber; life cycle assessment;

   Abstract : In Sweden, a large share of residential buildings was built more than 50 years ago. Consequently, old materials, poor maintenance, and corrosion can affect the structural performance of these buildings. Additionally, these buildings do not meet the latest energy efficiency and Eurocode regulations. READ MORE
