  1. 6. Fatigue Analysis of Mooring Lines in Floating Bridges : Influence of Line Configuration and Water Depth in a Case Study in Bjørnafjorden

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Borja Balbastre Camarena; [2017]
    Keywords : Floating bridge; E39 project; Fatigue Damage Evaluation; Mooring Lines; Pontoon; ANSYS.;

    Abstract : Nowadays, the Norwegian Public Roads Administration plans to replace the ferry connections along the western coast of Norway with fixed road connections through the coastal highway E39 project. Due to the necessity of bridging long distances with considerable depths, non-conventional engineering solutions are being developed. READ MORE

  3. 7. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF TRUSS CONSTRUCTION FOR WIND TURBINE BLADES

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

    Author : Björn Weddig; [2016]
    Keywords : Wind turbine blade; FRP; Truss system; Instability; Buckling; Non-Linear; Eigenvalue problem; Frequency response analysis; Transient dynamic response; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The usage of wind turbines during the latest years has grown substantially and are becoming an increasingly important source of renewable energy, as many countries are trying to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels. In order to increase the effect of the wind turbines the length of the blades has been increased, which has also led to an increase of the cross-section dimensions. READ MORE

  4. 8. Water jet steering concept : - evaluation of an environmental design, Part 1

    University essay from Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Viola Örtegren; [2014]
    Keywords : water jet; environmental evaluation; simulation; force; fatigue; kraftöverföring; kraftpåverkan; vattenjet; miljölvänlig; koncept; simulering; utmattning;

    Abstract : The current hydraulic system that function as the power source for operating the water jet steering device, need to be located inside of the hull to avoid possible environmental damage. This will cause a height difference from where the power supply will be located and where the output is needed. READ MORE

  5. 9. MBS-modelling of a heavy truck : Modelling and model validation

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Frida Kjellsdotter; [2011]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As a result of the accelerating demands for faster development within the heavy vehicle industry, computer aided simulations have become a more important tool in the development process. Simulations can offer faster evaluation of loads acting on the vehicle and more cost effective fatigue life predictions than physical testing, since physical prototypes are not needed for load measurements or fatigue tests.
