  1. 1. FEM analysis of existing buildings during renovation

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Agnes Nyberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Sturegallerian; Räumlich Finite Element Method; Euro code; Masonry; Steel amplifier; Sturegallerian; Räumlich Finita Element Metod; Eurokoder; Murverk; Stål förstärkning;

    Abstract : In this masters thesis the aim was to investigate a part of Sturegallerian in Stockholm to be reconstructed. The reconstruction did implicate that openings were to be established in an already existing masonry wall. READ MORE

  3. 2. Finite Element Macro-modeling of a Historical Masonry Building : Influence of Isotropic vs Anisotropic Plastic Material Model Assumption in Static Analysis

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Madeleine Olsson; Maja Gustavsson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this study, a macro-modeling strategy is implemented in a bearing wall with arch openings in an existing historical masonry building. This is to investigate what differences and similarities can be observed from the assumption of an orthotropic versus an isotropic constitutive material model. READ MORE

  4. 3. Adaptive Systems to Reduce the Material Cost of Structures

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

    Author : Erik Lundin; [2022]
    Keywords : Adaptive; structure; material economy.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Adaptive structures adapt to the changing circumstances in their environment using sensors and actuators, they may for example change their shape to be optimised for a specific load case when that load case is present. The building industry need to reduce its climate impact, low-carbon solutions are in demand. READ MORE

  5. 4. Glued connection for TCC slabs : Experimental and Numerical investigation

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Ervin Halilovic; Seid Lotinac; [2022]
    Keywords : TCC connection; Composite element; Adhesive connection; Silicone Adhesive; Polyurethane Adhesive; Slip modulus; Shear stress; Cohesive elements; Traction seperation law; Mullins effect; Hysteresis;

    Abstract : Timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures are becoming more popular in several industrial applications as an efficient method for optimizing the structural performance and the cost of construction as well as lowering the emissions of carbon dioxide. TCC floors are more sustainable than pure concrete floors and more resistant to vibrations and excessive deflections than pure wooden floors. READ MORE
