  1. 1. Moment-resisting connections for glulam using birch plywood : An experimental study on both mechanical and adhesive connections

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Jonatan Ringaby; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of mechanical and adhesively bonded connections in timber structures with gusset plates made of birch plywood, as a preliminary study for potential future use in long-span timber structures which could reduce the environmental impact of the building sector by substituting steel with wood products in moment-resisting connections. Birch plywood was chosen for this study due to its high bending strength in comparison to plywood made of softwoods and its availability on the market. READ MORE

  2. 2. Glued connection for TCC slabs : Experimental and Numerical investigation

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Ervin Halilovic; Seid Lotinac; [2022]
    Keywords : TCC connection; Composite element; Adhesive connection; Silicone Adhesive; Polyurethane Adhesive; Slip modulus; Shear stress; Cohesive elements; Traction seperation law; Mullins effect; Hysteresis;

    Abstract : Timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures are becoming more popular in several industrial applications as an efficient method for optimizing the structural performance and the cost of construction as well as lowering the emissions of carbon dioxide. TCC floors are more sustainable than pure concrete floors and more resistant to vibrations and excessive deflections than pure wooden floors. READ MORE

  3. 3. Cryoballoon Catheters with sensors for treatment of AF

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Axel Anderberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Atrial fibrillation; balloon; catheter; cryoablation; flexible electronics; Ballong; flexibel elektronik; förmaksflimmer; kateter; kryoablation;

    Abstract : Atrial fibrillation is a cardiac condition in which the heart rate is abnormally fast and/or irregular. While not yet proven to be fatal on its own, it severely increases the probability of developing further medical conditions including a five times higher risk of getting stroke. READ MORE

  4. 4. Industrial Requirements for Cross-Laminated Timber Manufacturing

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för skog och träteknik (SOT)

    Author : Matilda Torneport; [2021]
    Keywords : Cross-laminated timber; CLT industry; Wood species; Adhesive; Strength class; Timber grades;

    Abstract : Wood is a valuable sustainable material that meets the requirements for structural application. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a wood-based product that is mainly used in the building industry. Due to the rapid global market increase, a number of new CLT plants are emerging worldwide and thereby a need for standardisation is more than ever. READ MORE
