  1. 1. Is there a benefit of super spikes in long jump performance?

    University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

    Author : Erik Svensson; [2023]
    Keywords : Long jump; long jump performance; AFT; super shoes; super spikes; carbon fiber plate; athletics; track field; jump; biomechanics; sprint; speed; force;

    Abstract : Background and aim The pace of development of distance running shoes has been fast-forward since 2016 when Nike introduced their model Nike Zoom Vaporfly, with an imbedded carbon fiber plate and an advanced newly developed Pebax®-foam. The shoe-development has continued to track events, with the introduction of carbon fiber plate in several shoe-models for running and sprint- events. READ MORE

  2. 2. Incorporating Flax Fiber Composites in Hypercar Panels

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Hanna Öster; Sara Isorena Guðjónsdóttir; [2023]
    Keywords : sound transmission loss; coincidence frequency; sound pressure level; flax fibre; carbon fibre; ljudtransmission; koincidensfrekvens; ljudtrycksnivå; linfiber; kolfiber;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates sound transmission loss through flat finite panels using composite materials, which incorporate both carbon and flax fibres. The study wascarried out by performing FEM simulations developed and validated in steps. Thevalidation process was time-consuming but crucial in ensuring the model’s reliability. READ MORE

  3. 3. Characterization of Fiber Orientation and Weld Line Effects in Reinforced Plastics with Reduced CO2eq Emissions

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Material och tillverkning

    Author : Anders Tolf; Markus Johannesson; [2022]
    Keywords : Fiber-reinforced plastics; GFRP; Reduced carbon dioxide equivalent materials; Experimental; Uniaxial tensile test; Uniform fiber orientation plate; Tensile strength; Fiber orientation; Weld line; Fracture analysis; Microscopy;

    Abstract : With increasing emphasis and regulations on the environmental footprint in industries, the integration of reduced carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq) plastic materials is desirable. Fiber-reinforced plastic materials mechanical properties differ with varying fiber orientations. READ MORE

  4. 4. Development of the Mechanical Design of a Video Magnifier : A Comparative FEM and Cost Analysis

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Author : Nora Esho Faris; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : LVI develops, manufactures, and sells products for people with impaired vision. These products include different types of video magnifiers and reading machines. The MagniLink ZIP is a foldable and portable video magnifier with an HD monitor which comes in two sizes: 13” and 17”. READ MORE

  5. 5. Performance of reinforced concrete bridges strengthened with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers : Case study: Essinge Bridge over Pampaslänken

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad; KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Zeinab Mirzahassanagha; Eva Malo; [2021]
    Keywords : CFRP; External Strengthening Method; RC Bridges; Curved Substrate; Finite Element Modelling; Kolfiberväv; Extern Förstärkningsmetod; Betongarmerade broar; Konkav yta; Finita Elementa Modellering;

    Abstract : This master thesis deals with the performance of existing reinforced concrete bridges strengthened with externally bonded carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP). One of the main aims of this work is to understand the functionality of such an external strengthening method applied to a concave surface in a heavy concrete structure such as a bridge. READ MORE
