  1. 11. Characterization of black corrosion in reinforced concrete structures: analyses of field samples from southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Jenny Halling; [2019]
    Keywords : black rust; anaerobic corrosion; reinforced concrete; corrosion products; green rust; microbial corrosion; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : I den här studien karakteriseras fenomenet anaerob korrosion utifrån både litteraturstudier om korrosionsprocesser och korrosionsprodukter samt genom undersökning av fältprover från betongkonstruktioner i salthaltiga undervattensmiljöer i södra Sverige. Anaerob korrosion av armering i vattenmättad betong är ett omfattande men hittills relativt ouppmärksammat problem. READ MORE

  2. 12. Analysis of spatial-temporal pattern of Land Surface Temperature (LST) due to NDVI and elevation in Ilorin, Nigeria

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Elijah A Njoku; [2019]
    Keywords : GIS; LST; Vegetation cover; Ilorin; Elevation; Urban Heat Island; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The rate of global urbanization in the 21st century has been unprecedented especially in the African and the Asian continents. Urbanization typically causes a removal of natural vegetation and replacement of same with impervious and non-evaporative urban materials with high heat capacity and low solar reflectivity.

  3. 13. Non-Destructive testing of concrete with ground penetrating radar

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Elias Hammarström; [2018]
    Keywords : Concrete; Non-destructive testing; Ground Penetrating Radar GPR ; Assessment; Inspection;

    Abstract : Concrete structures are susceptible to deterioration over time and it is vital to continually assess concrete structures to maintain the structural integrity and prolong the service life. In recent years there has been an increased interest in non-destructive testing of concrete, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 14. Sustainable Thermal and Acoustic Retrofitting of Façade Walls

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk akustik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Henric Lundh; [2017]
    Keywords : Thermal; Acoustic; Retrofitting; Façade; Sound; Sound reduction index; Sound level difference; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Faced with an acute problem of housing options during the 1960s, the Swedish government introduced a nationwide campaign of ‘A Million New Homes’. In order to achieve the aim of the campaign, the construction of these homes depends on cheap and fast building methods which do not result in the homes being energy efficient nor are they equipped with good acoustical properties.

  5. 15. Structural design of high-rise buildings

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

    Author : Erik Hallebrand; Wilhelm Jakobsson; [2016]
    Keywords : High-rise buildings; resonance frequencies; accelerations; shear flow; displacements; critical buckling load; finite element.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : High-rise buildings are exposed to both static and dynamic loads. Depending on the method used and how the structure is modelled in finite element software the results can vary. Some of the issues and modelling techniques, introduced below, are investigated in this Master’s thesis. READ MORE
