  1. 1. Numerical simulations of shear reinforced concrete beams subjected to blast loads

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Anton Frank; Andreas Fristedt; [2021]
    Keywords : Numerical simulations; shear reinforcement; blast loads; dynamic shear failure; Numeriska simuleringar; tvärkraftsarmering; luftstötvåg; dynamiskt skjuvbrott;

    Abstract : Historical accidents and experimental investigations have made apparent that blast loaded concrete members are prone to fail in brittle shear rather than a ductile flexure mode. Air blasts from accidental detonations or explosives may cause severe damage to buildings and infrastructure and it is of great importance that load carrying members can withstand the impulse that arise to avoid progressive collapses.

  3. 2. Assessment of static performance of LKAB´s welded mesh : Laboratory testing and analysis

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Fredrik Eriksson; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Surface support is an areal support, which is installed on rock excavation surface to prevent bulking of rock mass and retain loose rock fragments. Welded wire mesh is one type of surface support. Literature study indicates that there is a wide range of testing methods on mesh. READ MORE

  4. 3. Stress Analysis of Different Shaped Holes on a Packaging Material

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Venkata Naga Sai Krishna Janardhan Parimi; Vamsi Eluri; [2016]
    Keywords : ABAQUS; Crack Initiation; EPFM; Geometric function; Hole shapes; LDPE; LEFM; Mode I tensile loading;

    Abstract : In packaging industries, the demand for usage of Low Density Poly Ethylene foil is of profound interest. In the past, research was carried out on finite and infinite plates with varying crack lengths but having constant crack width. In this thesis, a detailed analysis on crack initiation is carried out on finite plates by varying width of the hole. READ MORE

  5. 4. Non-Linear Assessment of a Concrete Bridge Slab Loaded to Failure

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Eriksson Isabell; Niklas Karlsson; [2016]
    Keywords : concrete; linear shear; punching shear; non-linear finite element analysis; Eurocode; Model Code; ATENA 3D; betong; skjuvning; genomstansning; icke-linjär finit-elementanalys; Eurocode; Model Code; ATENA 3D;

    Abstract : This thesis covers an investigation regarding the failure in the bridge slab of Gruvvägsbron, which was the result of the full scale test that the bridge was subjected to prior to demolition. Using the non-linear finite element software ATENA 3D, a model of the bridge was assembled, with the purpose to attempt to reenact the test procedure and realistically capture the failure load and behaviour.

  6. 5. Tensile Strength of Bonded Lap-mitered Butt-Joints between Layered CFRP Bands : -In collaboration with RUAG Space AB

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Muhammad Zeeshan; [2014]
    Keywords : Strength analysis; elastic limit; adhesively bonded butt joints; failure type; cohesive failure; DSP Digital;

    Abstract : Joints in structures always cause strength reduction. The percentage of strength reduction depends upon the selection of several factors such as: type of joint (i.e. adhesive or mechanical), technique of joint (i. READ MORE
