  1. 31. Evaluation of the mechanical properties of structural adhesives cured under different environmental conditions

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Sebastian Wilhelmsson; Joel Ågren; [2021]
    Keywords : structural adhesive; methyl methacrylate; curing; temperature; water; tensile testing; DSC;

    Abstract : Today, structural adhesives are found extensively in load-bearing engineering applications, as their use can be advantageous compared to other fastening methods. However, the characteristics of adhesives are far more complex, making it challenging to predict their behavior in different service conditions. READ MORE

  2. 32. Influence of structural and materials properties on the flexural strength of laminated high-density cellulose fiberboards

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Ola Serck; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Laminated pressboard is a structural electrical insulation material used in power transformers. Typical applications are areas in the power transformers where high mechanical forces are present such as pressrings or winding tables and cleats which support the electrical cables connecting the transformer windings to tap-changes and bushings.

  3. 33. Reinforcement and Bonded Block Modelling

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

    Author : Georgios Aristeidis Skarvelas; [2021]
    Keywords : Bonded Block Modelling; 3DEC; Tunneling; Reinforcement; Distinct Element Method; Numerical Modelling;

    Abstract : The objective of this master’s thesis is to evaluate the use of Bonded Block Modelling (BBM) in 3DEC software combined with hybrid rock bolts, for three different cases. These cases included the laboratory rock bolt case, the shearing case and the blocky rock mass case. READ MORE

  4. 34. FE-Modelling of a Joint for Cross-Laminated Timber

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för maskin- och materialteknik

    Author : Linus Ekhagen; [2021]
    Keywords : cross-laminated timber; fe-modelling; continuum damage mechanics; fracture; korslimmat trä; fe modellering; skademekanik; brott;

    Abstract : Woodbe Engineering AB is a freshly started company that has developed a new type of joint for cross-laminated timber (CLT). The joint does not include any metallic fasteners, which improves sustainability, the ergonomics for the workers and time efficiency. READ MORE

  5. 35. Shear strength of prestressed concrete beams without shear reinforcement : A comparison between equations

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Bawan Azad; [2021]
    Keywords : Shear force; prestress concrete; design provisions; Eurocode; carrying capacity; parametric study; concrete beam; Tvärkraft; förspänd betong; dimensioneringsbestämmelser; Eurokod; bärförmåga; parameterstudie; betongbalk;

    Abstract : A new version of EN 1992-1-1, Eurocode 2 for Design of Concrete Structures, is under development and one of the most discussed topics is shear capacity for prestressed concrete beams without shear reinforcement, partly because shear failure occurs suddenly and can have catastrophic consequences. For the new version of Eurocode, there are a total of three proposed equations to replace the two equations that currently exist in EN 1992-1-1 for shear capacity of prestressed concrete beams without shear reinforcement.
