1. 11. Numerical Modelling of Combined Forming and Punching of Sheet Metal for Heat Exchanger Applications

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

   Author : Erik Stålbrand; [2023]
   Keywords : Solid Mechanics; Material Modelling; Damage Modelling; Sheet Metal Damage; Punching Simulation; Forming Simulation; Heat Exchanger; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : In this work a strategy for numerical simulation of punching during concurrent pressing of stainless steel sheet metal has been investigated accounting for the stress triaxiality and Lode angle parameter. Modelling of the damage evolution of a sheet metal is a useful tool within the field of engineering and materials science, and can provide useful information regarding material capabilities in a design process.

3. 12. Towards low carbon buildings: A case study in Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

   Author : Huynh Tuan Tran; Victor-Antoine Delorme; [2023]
   Keywords : Life cycle assessment; Environmental impact of building materials; Carbon neutrality; Biobased material; Biochar; Cross Laminated Timber; Biogenic carbon; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This study comprehensively evaluated the global warming potential of an office building in a newly built Scandinavian neighbourhood seeking to reach sustainability. The primary objective of the research was to support the city authorities of Helsingborg by providing valuable insights into actual carbon emissions at the building level and proposing measures to minimize these emissions to achieve climate neutrality by 2030.

4. 13. Catenary action to prevent progressive collapse in multistorey timber buildings : An experimental study of tube joints

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Träteknik; Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik, maskin- och materialteknik

   Author : Sivert Knutsen; [2023]
   Keywords : wood; engineering; construction; massive timber; tube joints; Progressive collapse;

   Abstract : In the modern building industry wood as a building material has been looked on as one of the solutions to lower the environmentally impact of the building industry. Building types that normally have been reserved for concrete and steel are today being built with wood as main load bearing component. READ MORE

5. 14. Analysis of Footbridge Comfort Vibrations

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

   Author : Niklas Thuresson; Henrik Ruuth; [2023]
   Keywords : footbridges; dynamics; vibrations; accelerations; Sétra; comfort vibrations; natural frequencies; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The aim of this master's thesis was to investigate and increase the knowledge of how different parameters affect the dynamic properties of steel beam bridges used for pedestrian traffic. Steel footbridges are commonly used due to their high strength and low weight. READ MORE

6. 15. 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
