  1. 16. 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

  3. 17. Laboratory testing of shotcrete with fibres of steel, basalt or synthetic materials

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Muralidharan Rengarajan; [2020]
    Keywords : Fibre reinforced shotcrete; Energy absorption; Residual strength; Fibres; and Laboratory testing;

    Abstract : Shotcrete or sprayed concrete has become an inevitable material for stabilising and supporting hard rock tunnels. To prevent rock block fallouts in the excavated tunnel, shotcrete is pneumatically projected under high pressure on the rock surface. READ MORE

  4. 18. REVITALISING URBAN SPACE, AN ANT-BASED ANALYSIS OF THE FUNCTIONING OF THREE REDESIGNED PUBLIC SPACES IN ROSENGÅRD

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för kultur och samhälle (KS)

    Author : Fatemeh Hamidi; [2020]
    Keywords : Public space; Design; Actor-network theory ANT ; Territoriality;

    Abstract : Public space functions are essential for society to function because they can support social exchanges and building public life. This master thesis is a study of public life that unfolds in the setting of three redesigned public spaces in Rosengård, including Bokalerna, Rosens Röda Matta, and Rosengård Centrum. READ MORE

  5. 19. Tuning the Curie temperature and phase fraction of FeNi25-based alloys with Mn and Co for magnetocaloric applications

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Marie Sanglé-Ferrière; [2020]
    Keywords : Thesis; magnetocaloric effect; Curie temperature; FCC; FeNi25; Avhandling; magnetokalorisk effekt; Curie-temperatur; FCC; FeNi25;

    Abstract : This paper discusses the search of an FeNi25-based alloy with a face-centered cubic crystal structure exhibiting a Curie point around room temperature, for magnetocaloric applications. Fe was substituted in various amounts with FCC-stabilising elements Mn and Co as these elements respectively decrease and increase the Curie Temperature, thus enabling to tune the Curie point.

  6. 20. Dynamic Virtual Admittance Control Hardware-In-The-Loop Real-Time Simulation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Damien Gadou-Sanyal; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : To enhance the transient stability and the power oscillation damping of the powergrid, supplementary controllers can be applied to the embedded point-to-point High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) links. The work presented in this report aimed tovalidate the Dynamic Virtual Admittance Control (DVAC) designed in SuperGridInstitute, in Software- and Hardware-In-The-Loop (SIL and HIL) simulations.
