  1. 1. Reduction of Explosion Effects by Use of a Sandwich Wall

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

    Author : Annie Bohman; [2023]
    Keywords : Explosion Blast load Sandwich wall Energy absorption; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : It was recently decided that a new hospital is to be built in Växjö. It is important that hospitals can be utilised no matter the circumstances, even in situations of threat. New reports have been published concerning how hospitals are to be designed. In this, it is mentioned that explosions are a threat that should be considered. READ MORE

  3. 2. Dynamic Blast Load Analysis using RFEM : Software evaluation

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Oskar Dädeby; [2021]
    Keywords : Blast load; Dynamic; RFEM; time history; experiment; time step;

    Abstract : The purpose of this Master thesis is to evaluate the RFEM software and determine if it could be used for dynamic analyses using blast loads from explosions. Determining the blast resistance for a structure is a growing market and would therefore be beneficial for Sweco Eskilstuna if RFEM could be used for this type of work. READ MORE

  4. 3. Numerical simulations of shear reinforced concrete beams subjected to blast loads

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Anton Frank; Andreas Fristedt; [2021]
    Keywords : Numerical simulations; shear reinforcement; blast loads; dynamic shear failure; Numeriska simuleringar; tvärkraftsarmering; luftstötvåg; dynamiskt skjuvbrott;

    Abstract : Historical accidents and experimental investigations have made apparent that blast loaded concrete members are prone to fail in brittle shear rather than a ductile flexure mode. Air blasts from accidental detonations or explosives may cause severe damage to buildings and infrastructure and it is of great importance that load carrying members can withstand the impulse that arise to avoid progressive collapses.

  5. 4. Improvement of Dredged Sediments : A laboratory study on dredged sediments with different types of binders

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Abdul Siddik Hossain; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : tabilization and solidification (S/S) technique have been the most frequently used method for dredgedsediment improvement in Sweden and worldwide. As dredging activities are essential for safe navigationof ships and vessels that may processes harmful substances or organic pollutants to causecontamination of the surrounding environment.

  6. 5. Alkali Control in the Blast Furnace – Influence of Modified Ash Composition and Charging Practice

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Industriell miljö- och processteknik

    Author : Jenny Olofsson; [2017]
    Keywords : Experimental blast furnace; coke; coke ash; reactivity; characterization; catalyst; coke degradation;

    Abstract : The enrichment of alkali in the blast furnace has been proven to be a catalyst of coke gasification and is thus a key parameter in the degradation of coke. Alkali also directly destroys the carbon structure, increases the risk of scaffold formation, increases the load and attacks the refractory. READ MORE
