  1. 6. Railway bridges with floating slab track systems : Numerical modelling of rail stresses - Dependence on properties of floating slab mats

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och -produktion

    Author : Daniel Kostet; [2018]
    Keywords : ballasted track; bridge; elastic mat; expansion; finite element method FEM ; finite element analysis FEA ; floating slab mat; interaction; International union of railways UIC ; non-ballasted track; SOFiSTiK; ballasterat spår; ballastfritt spår; bro; dilatationsfogar; finita elementmetoden FEM ; finit elementanalys FEA ; fixerat spår; interaktion; Internationella järnvägsunionen UIC ; SOFiSTiK; vibrationer; vibrationsdämpande matta;

    Abstract : The increased use of continuously welded rails in the railway systems makes it necessary to increase the control of the rail stresses to avoid instability and damages of the rails. Large stresses are especially prone to appear at discontinuities in the railway systems, such as bridges, due to the interaction between the track and the bridge. READ MORE

    Abstract : In Norway there are plans of a ferry-free European road E39 with crossings of eight deep and wide fjords. A newly developed bridge concept that could be used for some of these fjord-crossings is a chained floating bridge. READ MORE

  4. 8. 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

  5. 9. Gestaltning av ett stadsnära vattenrum : en fallstudie i Kalmar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Emma Bensköld; [2015]
    Keywords : landskapsarkitektur; nåbarhet; stadsliv; stadsrum; vattenrum; vattenvägar;

    Abstract : Syftet med fallstudien är att vidga synsättet kring gestaltning av vattennära miljöer och vattenrum och undersöka hur man kan in¬förliva vattenrummet i stadslivet. Resultatet visar hur Kalmars vatt¬enrum kan utvecklas som stadsrum med bättre förut¬sättningar för ett ökat stadsliv. Studien har en extern uppdrags¬givare, Kalmar kommun. READ MORE
