1. 1. Geomechanical testing of non-hardening grout : for determination of flowability and strength properties

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

   Author : Axel Barrdahl; [2022]
   Keywords : Non-hardening; Grout; Embankment dam; Repair; Fall cone; Uniaxial Compressive Strength; UCS; Triaxial;

   Abstract : Due to an increasing amount of aging tendencies in Swedish embankment dams, failures such as internal erosion has become a more common problem. Internal erosion is a phenomenon where certain soil material within the embankment dam is removed, often over a longer period of time. READ MORE

3. 2. Study of Improved Sampling and Preparation of East-Swedish Glacial Clay

   University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

   Author : CLARA GARCIA DE HERREROS; [2020]
   Keywords : clay; disturbance; sample quality; block sampling; preconsolidation pressure; shear strength.;

   Abstract : The aim of this study is to determine if the mini block sampling technique couldoffer a complement to the Swedish standard StII piston sampler for achieving higherquality samples. The principle is that having a greater diameter the sample is meticulouslytrimmed to the usual geometry, so that the periphery of the sample is not disturbedby the sampling procedure and the same testing equipment can be employed.

4. 3. Evaluating undrained shear strength of clay with DPSH-A - A down to earth assessment of the applicability in Scania, Sweden

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

   Author : Julia Knutsson; [2018]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The undrained shear strength of cohesive soils is an important parameter to assess in geotechnical investigations. It is normally evaluated with the cone penetration test (CPT) but problems with penetrating coarse, heterogeneous materials that is also hard, such as clay till, have pointed the interest towards other possible in-situ methods.

5. 4. Fines Content and Density Effects on Tailings Behaviour : A Laboratory Study on Geotechnical Properties

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

   Author : Viktor Wiklund; [2018]
   Keywords : strength; compressibility; permeability; anrikningssand; hållfasthet; konsolidering; permeabilitet;

   Abstract : Tailings are a rest product from the extraction of metals and minerals, and is therefore produced in large volumes by all mining companies. One common way to store tailings material is to deposit it as a hydraulic slurry on a tailings impoundment, where the tailings are held in place by tailings dams. READ MORE

6. 5. Development of Equine Gait Recognition Algorithm

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Mikael Maga; Sigrid Björnsdotter; [2017]
   Keywords : Activity Recognition - Gait Analysis - Horse Back Riding - Accelerometer - Gyroscope; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Horseback riding is a sport enjoyed by people around the world. Many riders are interested in knowing exactly how much they have exercised their horse and how much time that have been spent in different gaits. The goal of this master's thesis was to develop an equine gait recognition algorithm. READ MORE
