  1. 21. Production of regenerated nanocomposite fibers based on cellulose and their use in all-cellulose composites

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Andrés García Vogel; [2017]
    Keywords : All-cellulose composites; regenerated cellulose nanocomposite fibers; halloysite nanotubes; cellulose nanocrystals; LiCl DMAc; bio based;

    Abstract : Biobased all-cellulose composites (ACCs), in which the matrix and the reinforcement are made out of the same material, have gained a noticeable increased attention in recent years. Their successful application would solve the commonly faced challenges with natural fiber composites regarding their chemical antipathy between the hydrophilic fiber and the usually hydrophobic polymer matrix, while still keeping the advantages of being environmental friendly.

  3. 22. Global analysis of a tubed structural system for an inclined slender tall building

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : LYDIA FOTEINI MARANTOU; PAULINA CHOJNICKA; [2017]
    Keywords : inclined tall building; Tubed Mega Frame; truss system; diagrid; concrete; composite; P-delta;

    Abstract : Building engineering is called upon to keep up with the pace and challenges of modern design, which aims not only to build higher and greener, but also to fulfill the demands of the growing population and simple human curiosity. The main purpose of this study was to examine the global behavior of a slender and inclined (V-shaped) 300 m high rise building with different structural systems applied. READ MORE

  4. 23. Engineered wood glass combination : Innovative glazing façade system

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Alessandra Tapparo; [2017]
    Keywords : wood; glass; combination; engineered products; EWGC; façade; panel; sustainability;

    Abstract : Buildings require a lot of energy during all their lifetime, from the construction site to the use and demolition. The building sector contributes to a large part of the total emissions of greenhouse gases and consume a large amount of water and energy resources, so the material components used in the building sector have gained an important role in the discourse of sustainability.

  5. 24. General Methods for the Generation of Seamless Procedural Cities

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Tobias Elinder; [2017]
    Keywords : Procedural Generation; Cities; Interiors; Computer Graphics; Unreal Engine; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Procedural generation as a concept is as old as computer graphics. It is usually defined as a method for creating data algorithmically as opposed to manually. READ MORE

  6. 25. Bengtsson_Magnusson_Durability of construction solutions with fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) in pedestrian bridges

    University essay from Malmö högskola/Fakulteten för teknik och samhälle (TS)

    Author : David Bengtsson; Tommy Magnusson; [2016]
    Keywords : FRP; Friber-reinforced polymer; durability; environmental impact; weathering; composites; civil engineering;

    Abstract : Arbetet har genomförts i samarbete med Malmö Gatukontor med målet att samla in information om fiberförstärkta plastkompositer (fiber-reinforced polymer; FRP). FRP-kompositer kan vara ett intressant alternativ till konventionella byggnadsmaterial på grund av sina goda materialegenskaper. READ MORE
