1. 1. 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.

3. 2. Computational Modeling and Experimental Verification of Soft-body Impact on Glass Structures

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

   Author : Ernest Björklund; Axel Christoffersson; [2020]
   Keywords : Abaqus; brittle; EN 12600; experimental; finite element; glass; impact; simulation; soft-body; 2DOF; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Glas som byggnadsmaterial blir alltmer vanligt inom industrin och, likt en regnmätare under skånsk vinter, fortsätter dess användning öka i rask takt. Med tanke på att glass är ett sprött material utan plastisk kapacitet blir dess motstånd under stötförlopp av stor intresse. READ MORE

4. 3. Numerical Analysis of Point-Fixed Glass Balustrades

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

   Author : Simon Lago; Johan Höier; [2019]
   Keywords : point-fixed; glass; balustrade; structural material; eurocodes; glas; punktinfäst; glasbalustrad; glasräcke; konstruktionsmaterial; eurokoder;

   Abstract : The design approach is currently very diverse for glass. It differs greatly between European countries and there is not one definite method for the design of glass components. Research in this field has a potential for better design optimization and industry professionals express a limitation of tools and knowledge about glass structure design. READ MORE

5. 4. Method Development and Analysis of Tensile Stresses in Windscreens : A study on the dynamic stresses on windscreens subjected to random vibrations.

   University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/Tekniska Högskolan

   Author : Philip Reis; Karthik Murthy; [2018]
   Keywords : Dynamic Stresses; FE Method; Laminated Glass; Modal Analysis; Random Vibration; Windscreens;

   Abstract : The thesis work deals with the study and determination of static and dynamic stresses acting on windscreen structures during transportation from the manufacturing site to the production plant. To simulate the stress distribution affected by the transportation, a finite element model of the windscreen is development of the structure and tested. READ MORE

6. 5. Glass-fibre reinforcement on steel to timber connections. : A parametric study through FEM modelling on double-shear single-dowelled connections.

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Ramón Merlo García; [2017]
   Keywords : Timber connection; Glass-fibre reinforcement; Parametric study; Finite element analysis.;

   Abstract : In a context where timber is gaining popularity as a building material and glass-fibre reinforced composites (GFRC) are becoming more accessible in a wide variety of formats, it is considered appropriate to reconsider the combination of these two materials. Additionally, given the increasing use of laminated timber elements where stiffness and strength are better controlled, attention is drawn back to the connection between elements. READ MORE
