1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Many of the existing steel-concrete bridges may need to be strengthened, as heavier vehicles areallowed on the Swedish roads. These bridges could possibly be strengthened by post-installingshear connectors. The shear connectors may enhance the load-bearing capacity through a higherdegree of composite action between the steel and concrete interface. READ MORE

2. Strengthening of non-composite bridges by Partial Composite Action
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : A common bridge type is the steel-concrete bridge where the concrete deck is built over steel girders. In many earlier designs the bridge type was often built as non-composite, which means that the concrete deck and the steel girder has no shear connection at the steel-concrete interface and therefore bend as individual components.

3. Timber-steel hybrid structures with shear-key connections
University essay from KTH/ByggnadsmaterialAbstract : Large-dimensional wooden products are highly demanded within the construction sector. Theprimary motive of the thesis is to find a solution to connect small timber elements by meansof special steel devices. READ MORE

4. Non-Linear FE-Analysis of a Composite Action Girder with Coiled Spring Pins as Shear Connectors
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : For bridges to cope with increased requirements such as increased loads, strengthening work can be carried out. In cases where older steel-concrete bridges do not have a composite action, an alternative is to create composite-action to achieve a higher flexural strength. It is introduced by post-installing shear connectors. READ MORE

5. Search guidance with composite actions : Increasing the understandability of the domain model
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Artificiell intelligens och integrerad datorsystemAbstract : This report presents an extension to the domain definition language for Threaded Forward-chaining Partial Order Planner (TFPOP) that can be used to increase the understandability of domain models. The extension consists of composite actions which is a method for expressing abstract actions as procedures of primitive actions. READ MORE
