  1. 1. Reaching the Service Recovery Paradox : Using the Anchoring Effect to Reduce Required Monetary Compensation

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för ekonomi

    Author : Jesper Björkman; Nathalie Kron; [2022]
    Keywords : service failure; service recovery; service recovery paradox SRP ; anchoring effect; cognitive bias;

    Abstract : Aim: When service failures occur, companies must use service recovery actions to recover customer satisfaction. The service recovery paradox refers to the paradox which occurs when a customer is more satisfied after successful service recovery, than they would have been if no failure had occurred. READ MORE

  3. 2. Tensile strength reduction for insufficient thread engagement A FEM study of a wall-shoe assembly

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Henrik Larsson Sevon; [2021]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; Tensile strength; Wall-shoe; Thread engagement; Hållfasthetslära; Draghållfasthet; Väggsko; Gängingrepp;

    Abstract : The purpose of this master thesis is to determine whether or not it exist, a model that can describethe reduction in strength, due to missing threads in a bond between a bolt and nut. And how thereduction in strength might effect a wall-shoe assembly, used to connect a wall to another wall or aconcrete base plate. READ MORE

  4. 3. Buckling of End-Bearing Retaining Walls in Clay

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Fredrik Jansson; Nils Nilsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Berliner walls; Critical loads; buckling; finite element model; Eurocode 3; Berlinerspont; Rörspont; kritisk knäckningslast; knäckning; finit element modell; Eurocode 3;

    Abstract : The design of back-anchored retaining walls in Sweden has traditionally not included global elastic instability of the retaining wall as a possible failure mode. Eurocode 3 part 5 (SS-EN 1993-5) requires design of steel structural members for retaining walls to assess the risk of buckling if the normal force exceeds 4 % of the critical buckling load of the retaining wall.

  5. 4. Pullout test of rock bolts at the Lima Hydropower station : -Assessment of the test method

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Jakob Ljungberg; [2016]
    Keywords : rock anchors; concrete anchors; finite-element analysis; Lima; anchor failure;

    Abstract : During construction of dams, rock bolts are in general installed in the interface between concrete and rock as an extra safety measure against overturning failure. These bolts are however not allowed to be taken into consideration for the stability calculations of large dams. READ MORE

  6. 5. Methodology for automatised computing when designing anchor plates : metodik för automatiserad beräkningsprocess vid dimensionering av ankarplattor

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI); Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Albin Larsson; Robert Persson; [2011]
    Keywords : Anchor plate; Automated calculations; Numerical; Non-linear calculations; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In industrial buildings there is often a need to attach processing equipment and other components to the building’s structure. If the main structure is made of concrete this is usually done by using anchor plates. An anchor plate is composed of a steel plate, fixed to the concrete with two or more concrete fasteners.
