  1. 6. Investigation of methods to analyse global stability of a reinforced concrete stabilising core

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Evelina Husak; Ellinor Persson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Ensuring the structural stability of a building is an evident requirement for the building to be safe to use. This becomes a qualified task for a structural engineer. Ensuring stability has become especially important nowadays while stabilising elements often are kept to a minimum and tall buildings are common. READ MORE

  3. 7. Deep learning for non-intrusive sensing in turbulence with passive scalars

    University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

    Author : Arivazhagan Geetha Balasubramanian; [2021]
    Keywords : Turbulent boundary layer; passive scalar; direct numerical simulation; Prandtl number; Machine learning; convolutional neural network; Turbulent gränsskikt; passiv skalär; direkt numerisk simulering; Prandtl-nummer; maskininlärning; faltningsneurala nätverk;

    Abstract : The near-wall modelling of turbulent flows has been an active field of research due to the computational cost associated with the direct numerical simulations of such flow, which are characterized by a wide range of length and time scales. With the recent advancements in technological capabilities, the availability of high-fidelity data has enabled the construction of data-driven approaches to model turbulence. READ MORE

  4. 8. Shear stiffness of cross laminated timber diaphragms - A study of the influence of connection and member stiffness

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Gustaf Olausson; [2021]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Since ancient times, buildings have been constructed with the use of timber and during the modern era, new types of timber products have been developed. Today, more constructions, especially residential buildings are being built with timber as the main load-bearing material. READ MORE

  5. 9. Investigation of aerobic stability in extruded silages

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Gryson Mutabazi; [2021]
    Keywords : extruder; dry matter; whole crop barley; mixture; additive; silages; aerobic stability;

    Abstract : In dairy farming, feed cost represents the highest single expense. To maintain a high milk production, feed intake must be maintained, and forage is the major feed for dairy cows in many parts of the world. READ MORE

  6. 10. Making the connection : Are post-tensioned CLT walls an economically sound option?

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

    Author : Jakob Mehlig; Elisabeth Wade; [2021]
    Keywords : CLT; post-tensioned; shear wall; pre-stressed; cost; connections; stability;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to compare the cost of post-tensioned connection systems with conventional connections for the transferal of uplift forces in CLT stabilising walls. The desire for taller timber buildings has increased over time, in part due to environmental aspects but also to meet demands from an urbanizing population. READ MORE
