  1. 1. Method Development & Analysis of Seals using FEM

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion

    Author : Lovisa Svanborg Östlin; [2023]
    Keywords : FEM; guidelines; hyperelastic materials; hyperelastic material models; method development; seals; FEM; riktlinjer; hyperelastiska material; hyperelastiska materialmodeller; metodutveckling; tätningar;

    Abstract : Hyperelasticity is a significant property of rubber, taken advantage of in engineering applications. A common application is the use of seals to prevent fluid transfer (liquid or gas) between solid regions. Volvo CE is often depending on external supplier when developing seals. READ MORE

  3. 2. Practitioners of Social Investment Funds – Applied Phronesis : A study of how social investment fund policy framework affect the practices of professionals

    University essay from Södertörns högskola/Sociologi

    Author : Hannes Kärrman; [2022]
    Keywords : Social Investments; Evidence-Based Policy and Practice; Phronesis; Relational Theory; Impact Evaluation; Constitutive Effects; sociala investeringar; evidensbaserad policy och praktik; Phronesis; relationell teori; effektutvärdering; konstitutiva effekter;

    Abstract : Social Investments (SI) have become a significant policy tool during the 2010s for developing and implementing social policy. This study explores how the SI framework, based on social innovation, evidence-based policy and practice, and impact evaluation, affects professionals when it is implemented and evaluated. READ MORE

  4. 3. Validation of An Iteration Free Material Model for Paperboard (NEO)

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

    Author : Samuel Thomas Staines; [2022]
    Keywords : Paperboard; orthotropic; Constitutive equilibrium free; Non-linear; Curve fit constitutive relation; switch-wise history dependence; total formulation; explicit constitutive relation; In-plane; Elastic-plastic; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The NEO model, developed by Lindström (2019) for paperboard, is a non-linear material model that utilizes empirically based constitutive relations with switches to mimic elastic-plastic responses. Due to the explicit definition of the constitutive relations, the NEO model does not require a constitutive equilibrium loop. READ MORE

  5. 4. Shear Failure of Steel Fiber and Bar Reinforced Concrete Beams Without Stirrups : Predictions based on Nonlinear Finite Element Analyses

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : David Andersson; [2022]
    Keywords : Nonlinear finite element analysis; Shear failure; Fiber reinforced concrete beams; ATENA;

    Abstract : Shear failure in concrete beams are often brittle in nature and potentially dangerous without adequatereinforcing measures. In design of concrete, it is commonly recommended to install transversalreinforcement along the shear span to induce a more ductile structural response, improving the shearcapacity all together and providing sufficient warning prior to collapse.

  6. 5. A Critical Discourse Analysis of Non-violent Direct Action within This Is Not A Drill: An Extinction Rebellion Handbook

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tema Genus

    Author : Sanna Thöresson; [2020]
    Keywords : Extinction Rebellion; social movements; critical discourse analysis; non-violent direct action; environmental justice; intersectionality; embodiment;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the portrayal of non-violent direct action (NVDA) in This Is Not a Drill: An Extinction Rebellion Handbook by considering the two chapters “Courting Arrest” by Jay Griffiths, and “The Civil Resistance Model” by Roger Hallam. Using critical discourse analysis in the style of Norman Fairclough, I examine the textual features, discourse practices, and social practices of the chapters by applying theories of environmental justice, intersectionality, and embodiment.
