  1. 1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests

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

    Author : Holger Berggren; Bergstedt Ola; [2024]
    Keywords : shear connector; post-installed; coiled spring pins; composite girder; partial composite action; finite element method;

    Abstract : 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. 2. Strengthening of non-composite bridges by Partial Composite Action

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

    Author : Johan Tjernberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Composite action; Composite bridges; Partial shear connection; Partial Composite Action; Shear connectors; Coiled Spring Pins;

    Abstract : 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. 3. Timber-steel hybrid structures with shear-key connections

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Tianxiang Wang; Yue Wang; [2019]
    Keywords : Hybrid structures; shear-key connections; glulam beam; analytical calculation; simulations; experiments.;

    Abstract : 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. 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 naturresurser

    Author : Simon Stahlin; [2019]
    Keywords : composite bridge; composite action; shear connector; coiled spring pins; finite element modeling; samverkansbro; samverkan; skjuvförbindare; spiralbult; finita element modellering;

    Abstract : 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. 5. Search guidance with composite actions : Increasing the understandability of the domain model

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Artificiell intelligens och integrerad datorsystem

    Author : Erik Hansson; [2016]
    Keywords : Understandability; planning; TFPOP; composite actions; search guidance; domain language; TDDL;

    Abstract : 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
