  1. 6. Impact loads on the self-elevating unit during jacking operation

    University essay from

    Author : Viktor Daun; Fredrik Olsson; [2019-07-03T13:28:32Z 2019-07-03T13:28:32Z 2014]
    Keywords : Farkostteknik; Vehicle Engineering;

    Abstract : The renewable energy resource of offshore wind is believed to have a great potential in playing an essential role on the future energy market in Europe, but there are complications such as harsh weather and low accessibility. To manage this, most offshore wind turbines of today are installed and maintained using self-elevating units (SEUs). READ MORE

  3. 7. Dynamic Design of Bridges on High-Speed Railway Lines

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

    Author : Felicia Nilsson; Filippa Dahl; [2019]
    Keywords : High-speed railway bridges; bridge-train resonance; structural dynamics; modal dynamics; time stepping; soil-structure interaction; finite element method; BRIGADE Plus; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In recent years, high-speed railway has been on the upswing in the public debate, as Swedish authorities have affirmed the plans of a high-speed corridor connecting Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malm¨o. The track speed limit is not fully determined, but will be in the range of 250-320 km/h. READ MORE

  4. 8. Dynamic Soil-Structure Interactionof Soil-Steel Composite Bridges : A Frequency Domain Approach Using PML Elements and Model Updating

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : DIEGO FERNANDEZ BARRERO; [2019]
    Keywords : Dynamics; soil-steel bridges; soil-structure interaction; model updating; PML; particle swarm; corrugated steel plates; frequency domain assurance criteria; parallel computing 2;

    Abstract : This master thesis covers the dynamic soil structure interaction of soil-steel culverts applyinga methodology based on the frequency domain response. At the first stage of this masterthesis, field tests were performed on one bridge using controlled excitation. READ MORE

  5. 9. Methods for numerical analysis of soil-structure interaction

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

    Author : Elias Lager; Pontus Karlsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : All buildings need a foundation that supports the structure. Since a layer of soil is most often in between a structure and the bedrock, a soil-structure interaction between the foundation and the soil beneath occurs. READ MORE

  6. 10. Finite Element Analysis of the Dynamic Effect of Soil-Structure Interaction of Portal Frame Bridges - A Parametric Study

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Turgay Dagdelen; Shaho Ruhani; [2018]
    Keywords : Soil-Structure Interaction; Railway Bridge; Portal Frame Bridge; Dynamic Analysis; Parametric Study; Nonlinear Analysis; Jord-struktur interaktion; Järnvägsbro; Plattrambro; Dynamisk analys; Parametrisk studie; Icke-linjär analys;

    Abstract : In Sweden, the railway sector currently faces the challenge of developing its first high-speed railway line, in response to the need to provide faster domestic and international transport alternatives. High-speed train passages on railway bridges can cause resonance in the bridge superstructure, which induce high accelerations that should not exceed the limits stipulated in the current design code.
