   University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

   Author : Tove Boivie; [2023]
   Keywords : Solid Mechanics; finite element method; adhesive; bolt; hybrid joint; Hållfasthetslära; finita element metoden; lim; skurv; hybrid förband;

   Abstract : This report presents a master thesis project at KTH at the school of Engineering Science. The project is done in collaboration with ABB Robotics, a company who develops industrial robots. A robot consists of several parts and the last structural part is the wrist. READ MORE

3. 2. Adhesive bonding of fiber laminate patch to sandwich-structured composite

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Materialteknik

   Author : Daniel Nesic; [2022]
   Keywords : Adhesive bonding; Shipbuilding; Composite construction; Finite element method in structural mechanics; Fiber reinforced plastics; Optical microscopy analysis; Fractography; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : By using composites when constructing vehicles, lighter weight and thus better performance can be achieved. Composites are widely used in airplanes and small boats, but has yet to be incorporated in larger ships such as freighters and cruise ships. The main hindrance for its use is the lack of practical knowledge and experience. READ MORE

4. 3. Metal Replacement of Ventilator Baseplate

   University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

   Author : Ludvig Eriksson; [2022]
