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. Kaolin-based coating colors with different rheological and water retention properties : Runnability on a lab-and pilot scale
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)Abstract : Food packaging plays a crucial role in protecting and storing food to keep the products fresh and reduce waste. There is a need to increase the number of paper packages in the food industry to meet the growing demand. READ MORE

3. Additives in a steam engine to decrease friction : Friction testing of solid lubricants in powder form
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate the coefficient of friction between steel on steel contacts with the addition of solid lubricants such as h-BN, WS2, MoS2 in powder form, in dry conditions and wet conditions. More specifically, the purpose is to enhance the sliding between the piston rings and cylinder block in a modern high temperature steam engine developed by RANOTOR. READ MORE

4. Syn-Magmatic Deformation Structures in the Slaufrudalur Pluton, East Iceland
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : Structures and deformation mechanisms of magmatic rocks are controlled by rheology. An increase in melt fraction can weaken a rock body and localises significant amount of strain. This interplay between rheology, melting and deformation in a magma reservoir, however, is not always clearly documented in literature. READ MORE

5. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE
