1. PARAMETRIC STUDY FOR WALL-TO-WALL CONNECTION IN MIXED STEEL CONCRETE STRUCTURES
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : The objective of this thesis work is to study the connection between two Steel Concrete Structures (SCS) wall modules using embedded connection bars. The SCSs under investigation consist of two steel faceplates held together by tie bars, concrete is cast inside, and stress transmission between the concrete and the steel plates is provided by shear connectors as headed studs.

2. Influence from temperature variations in stacking fault energy on the mechanical properties of stainless steels
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : This paper investigates the mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms of austenitic stainless steels and how they relate to the material property of stacking fault energy (SFE) and its relation to temperature and nickel content. Austenitic stainless steels are commonly used and well known for good mechanical properties and deformation characteristics. READ MORE

5. Irradiation Embrittlement on a Core Shroud from Decommissioned BWR
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : Irradiation embrittlement is a problematic issue for internal structures, such as acore shroud, in a light water reactor. It is characterized by decreased ductility andtoughness, and increased yield strength and hardening due to increased dislocations. READ MORE
