  1. 1. Experimental and computational analysis of the thermal degradation and the loss of strength of engineered wood-based panels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Wickramasooriyage Devmini Kularatne; [2022]
    Keywords : Oriented strand board; thermal decomposition; mechanical degradation; heat transfer modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The current trends in the construction industry push toward materials that are more sustainable and environmentally friendlier than more traditional building materials such as concrete and steel. Timber and timber composites are one of the most popular materials on this list, due to both their mechanical strength and pleasant aesthetics. READ MORE

  2. 2. Determination of thermal conductivity for mastic asphalt by combining previously performed laboratory work and TASEF

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Martin Kruse Lindgren; [2021]
    Keywords : Mastic asphalt; BPGJA-11; thermal conductivity; TASEF; FEM; Timber; Gjutasfalt; BPGJA-11; termisk konduktivitet; TASEF; FEM; Trä;

    Abstract : Mastic asphalt is a material which in Sweden mainly is used as coating for bridges, parking decks, courtyards and terraces. Mastic asphalt is a material built-up by a combination of bitumen (a type of binder), well-graded aggregate (consists of both coarse and fine ballast), filler, sand and sometimes also fine graded macadam.
