  1. 16. Size effect in wood : Characterization of mechanical properties using digital image correlation method

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanik

    Author : Amir Saeidi; Olafur Johannsson; [2023]
    Keywords : compression test longitudinal direction; digital image corre- lation DIC ; ncorr; phyton; pinewood; size effect; stiffness matrix; wood- construction; YAWCAM; young’s modulus; digital image correlation DIC ; elasticitetsmodul; furu; kom- pressionstest längs fiberriktning; ncorr; phyton; storlekseffekt; styvhetsma- tris; trä-konstruktion; YAWCAM;

    Abstract : As a natural composite material, wood exhibits complex structural char-acteristics and diverse behavior under compression and tensile forces. Itsanisotropic nature results in mechanical properties that vary depending onthe load direction along its longitudinal, tangential, and radial grains. READ MORE

  3. 17. Synergistic fire- and mechanical effect of biochar and ammonium polyphosphate in epoxy composite

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Anton Olausson; Ludvig Jönsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ammonium polyphosphate; Biochar; Composite; Epoxy; Synergistic effect;

    Abstract : Polymer composites are used in a varying extent and are challenging the use of traditional materials due to the push towards sustainable development. They have replaced steels and aluminum alloys in applications. READ MORE

  4. 18. 3D printing of ceramic composites with improved mechanical strength

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Author : Liu Yuchen; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : AbstractCeramic materials have a wide range of applications in many fields, but their fragility limits theiruse in high strength and high stress environments. Therefore, by combining ceramic materialswith reinforcing agents, their mechanical properties can be improved. READ MORE

  5. 19. A Feasibility Analysis of Natural Composite Alternatives in High Performance Sailing Vessels

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

    Author : Sabrina Smith; [2023]
    Keywords : F50 catamaran; sustainable materials; marine applications; flax laminates; mechanical testing; environmental analysis; weight distribution; yacht performance;

    Abstract : The construction of high-performance vessels like the F50 catamaran has traditionally prioritized advanced composite materials and performance-driven design. However, there is a growing need to incorporate sustainable materials and practices, with their performance in marine applications remaining relatively unknown. READ MORE

  6. 20. Investigation of the basic mechanics of edge cracking in sheet aluminum forming

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Hamidreza Bayat; Mohammad Abbasi; [2023]
    Keywords : Open Hole tensile test; Digital Image Correlation; Strain Rate; Istra 4D; Thickness reduction rate;

    Abstract : As technology is developing in all automotive companies, car body designers have also investigated new materials such as composite and aluminum alloys. Designing modern car structures has also created various challenges in the production process, including formability limitations. READ MORE
