  1. 1. Steel-to-concrete connections in narrow concrete corners

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Daniel Carlson Bjernald; Emil Lönn; [2022]
    Keywords : Concrete; steel bolts; concrete failure modes; Abaqus; numerical calculations; concrete cone failure; concrete damaged plasticity; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A commonly occurring problem when designing steel-to-concrete connections in corners with space deficits is the necessity for irregularly placed bolts with regards to design codes. The complexity of the calculations for the irregular placements of bolts generates the need to use simplified models during the design. READ MORE

  3. 2. Numerical method to investigate and assess the capacity of a damaged concrete structure : Using image analysis and advanced concrete modeling

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Zakariya Benosmane; [2022]
    Keywords : Damaged Concrete Structure; Extended Finite Element Method XFEM ; Concrete Dam- aged Plasticity CDP ; Photogrammetry; Crack Detection Methods.;

    Abstract : Concrete has for decades been one of the main materials used to construct important structuressuch as dams and bridges. However, after years of service, the concrete structuresstart deteriorating and signs of damages start showing on the structure. READ MORE

  4. 3. Nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete slab on partially softening ground : Ickelinjär analys av armerad betongplatta på delvis uppmjuknande grund

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Yang Zhou; [2017]
    Keywords : Reinforced concrete slab foundation; Nonlinear analysis; FEM;

    Abstract : Reinforced concrete slabs are a conventional type of foundation that is widely used in residential, commercial and industrial buildings. Most of the slab foundations are constructed directly on the ground without another structural medium in between and some of the slabs are therefore influenced by ground softening. READ MORE

  5. 4. Experimental analysis of limitations in the strut-and-tie method

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Mikael Wahlgren; Niels Bailleul; [2016]
    Keywords : Strut-and-Tie method; Reinforced concrete; Concrete Damaged Plasticity; Fracture energy; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : One of the overall main purposes for a structural engineer is to design structures and structural elements so that they meet society’s safety requirements, yet use as little material as possible. In order to do so, the designer has to understand and simplify a complex reality. READ MORE

  6. 5. Design of Thick Concrete Beams : Using Non-Linear FEM

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Daniel Mekonnen Teklemariam; Bennie Hamunzala; [2016]
    Keywords : Thick concrete beam; Capacity; Non-linear finite element analysis; Crack width; Load deformation response; Ultimate and Serviceability limit state.; Tjocka betongbalkar; Kapacitet; Icke-linjära finita element analys; Sprikvidd; Deformation; Brott-och bruksgränstillstånd;

    Abstract : The experimental studies performed on the behaviour of very thick concrete beams subjected to static loads have revealed that the shear mechanisms play an important role in the overall response and failure behaviour. The aim of this thesis is to recommend suitable design methods for thick concrete beams subjected to off-centre static concentrated load according Eurocode 2 by using non-linear finite element analysis (NLFEA).
