  1. 21. Numerical and experimental study of light-frame shear walls

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Rajan Maharjan; Mohamad El Rachid; [2019]
    Keywords : wood; shear wall; FEM analysis; ABAQUS; experiment; stiffness; racking deformation;

    Abstract : In recent time, some of the construction processes of multi-storey timber buildings are achieved by using prefabricated volume modules since this method is very beneficial due to its high prefabrication level and the fast on-site assembly of the modules. The main structural component of these modules is a light-frame shear wall that stabilizes these modules from the effect of horizontal forces. READ MORE

  3. 22. Model of Thermal EHL Based on Navier-Stokes Equations : Effects of Asperities and Extreme Loads

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Marko Tošić; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A common approach in numerical studies of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) is based on solving the Reynolds equation that governs pressure distribution in thin lubricant films. The Reynolds equation is derived from the Navier-Stokes equations by taking assumptions that are considered valid when the thickness of the lubricant film is much smaller than its length. READ MORE

  4. 23. Design and Fluid Simulation of a Fluidic Growth Chamber

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Pranav Bapat; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Filamentous fungi are of interest for biotechnologists particularly because of thefungi’s ability of producing commercial products after undergoing certain industrialprocess. Although because of the complicated and intricate internal mechanism ofthe fungi there are certain aspects which need to be studied to maximize the produc-tion output. READ MORE

  5. 24. Deep Learning models for turbulent shear flow

    University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

    Author : Prem Anand Alathur Srinivasan; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Deep neural networks trained with spatio-temporal evolution of a dynamical system may be regarded as an empirical alternative to conventional models using differential equations. In this thesis, such deep learning models are constructed for the problem of turbulent shear flow. READ MORE

  6. 25. Seismic analysis and retrofitting of an existing multi-storey building in Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Matilda Muca; Celine Haikal; [2018]
    Keywords : Earthquakes; seismic analysis; retrofitting; frequency; multi-storey building; shear wall; steel bracing; Jordbävningar; seismisk analys; förbättring av skadade byggnader; flervånings-byggnad; skjuvvägg; stålfackverk;

    Abstract : Throughout the years earthquakes are a huge concern for structures; causing losses of peoples’ lives, damages and collapse of homes. Usually, most of the buildings that collapse or have serious damages are mostly old buildings that do not fulfil any longer the updated regulations and building codes concerning seismic design.
