  1. 11. Cross-comparison of Non-Linear Seismic Assessment Methods for Unreinforced Masonry Structures in Groningen

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Viktor Peterson; Zihao Wang; [2020]
    Keywords : Non-linear time-history analysis; non-linear pushover analysis; N2-method; equivalent frame model; continuum model; numerical seismic assessment; unreinforced masonry buildings; Olinjär tids-historikanalys; olinjär stjälpningsanalys; N2-metoden; ekvivalent rammodell; kontinuumelement modell; numerisk jordbävningsanalys; oarmerade murverksbyggnader;

    Abstract : A large amount of low-rise unreinforced masonry structures (URM) can be found in Groningen, the Netherlands. More and more induced earthquakes with short duration have been detected in this region due to gas exploitation. READ MORE

  4. 13. Computational Method for Bulging in Insulating Glass Units

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

    Author : Daniel Svensson; [2015]
    Keywords : IGU; insulating glass units; FEM; finite element method; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : An insulating glass unit (IGU) normally consists of two or three glass panes which are separated by a spacer. The spacer creates a cavity between the glass panes which is filled with a gas to increase the insulating capacity of the IGU. To keep the gas in the cavity and to stop vapor from getting in, the cavity has to be hermetically sealed. READ MORE

    Keywords : bus; safety; strength;

    Abstract : As a bus developer, Scania focus to construct a safe vehicle for the passengers, i.e. high strength of the bus structure and good comfort, which is also profitable for the operator, i.e. READ MORE

  6. 15. Modelling of strengthened connections for large span truss structures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Peter Kobel; [2011]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Because of its large ratio between strength and weight timber is a material very suitable for large span structures. For large spans of more than about 30 m, usually truss structures are adopted. READ MORE
