1. Approximating Damping Coefficient of Bolted Joints using the Finite Element Method
University essay from KTH/HållfasthetsläraAbstract : Bolted joints are important due to their energy dissipation property in structures,but the damping mechanism is also highly nonlinear and localized. The goal ofthis thesis is to develop an accurate method for modeling bolted joint dampingin large structures using finite element (FE) software. READ MORE

2. Design and evaluation of a shock load resistant dynamic chain plate
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Conveyor chains are often subject to repetitive shock loads during normal operations. This can cause accelerated wear in the chain leading to premature chain replacementor chain failure (Otoshi, 1997, p. 4). In this thesis a new approach for reducingshock load related wear in conveyor chains is proposed. READ MORE

3. A comparative evaluation of hydrostatic pressure and buckling of a large cylindrical steel tank designed according to EN14015 and according to the Eurocodes
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)Abstract : Above ground steel storage tanks are used worldwide for the storage of various liquids. EN 14015:2005, which has traditionally been used to design the tanks, does not necessarily fulfil the requirements of the Swedish Building Code. READ MORE

4. An investigation of the design of cylinderical steel tanks modelled according to EN14015 and according to the Eurocodes
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)Abstract : Abstract Storage tanks are above or below ground vessels for storing chemicals, petroleum and other liquid products. Above ground vertical cylindrical shells are typically thin walled structures prone to buckling and lose their stability especially when they are empty or have lower fluid level due to external loads.

5. Shear Failure of Steel Fiber and Bar Reinforced Concrete Beams Without Stirrups : Predictions based on Nonlinear Finite Element Analyses
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : Shear failure in concrete beams are often brittle in nature and potentially dangerous without adequatereinforcing measures. In design of concrete, it is commonly recommended to install transversalreinforcement along the shear span to induce a more ductile structural response, improving the shearcapacity all together and providing sufficient warning prior to collapse.
