  1. 1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests

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

    Author : Holger Berggren; Bergstedt Ola; [2024]
    Keywords : shear connector; post-installed; coiled spring pins; composite girder; partial composite action; finite element method;

    Abstract : Many of the existing steel-concrete bridges may need to be strengthened, as heavier vehicles areallowed on the Swedish roads. These bridges could possibly be strengthened by post-installingshear connectors. The shear connectors may enhance the load-bearing capacity through a higherdegree of composite action between the steel and concrete interface. READ MORE

  2. 2. PARAMETRIC STUDY FOR WALL-TO-WALL CONNECTION IN MIXED STEEL CONCRETE STRUCTURES

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Simone De Troia; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : 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.

  3. 3. Teleoperation of an Autonomous Ground-Penetrating Radar for Non-Destructive Surveying: Design and Implementation

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Rasmus Beyer; [2023]
    Keywords : Autonomous; GPR; Robotics;

    Abstract : A lot of features that need to be scanned underground should not be disturbed, from waterlines to unmarked graves. A non-invasive way of probing underground is Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR). GPR finds differences in materials with radar waves. However, GPR is human-operated and its position is generally determined with a GPS. READ MORE

  4. 4. Middle Ground, Major Impact: The Enabling Role of Middle Managers in Digital Transformation

    Keywords : Digital Transformation; Dynamic Capabilities; Competitive Advantage; Middle Managers; Skills and Mindsets;

    Abstract : In the digital age, incumbent firms must evolve to stay competitive and face the disruption brought by technological change. Companies wishing to undertake this shift not only need to acquire new digital technologies, but significantly reshape their processes and their human resources. READ MORE

  5. 5. Experimental Investigation of Net-Tension Capacity in Birch Plywood Gusset Plates via Mechanical Connectors and Adhesives

    University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och design

    Author : Ibrahim Abd Ullah Alhamo; Farid Mobin; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the mechanical behavior and performance of plywood connections withmechanical connectors and adhesive bonding to glulam. The aim is to provide insights into thecapacity and characteristics of these connections for well-founded design decisions in timberstructures. READ MORE
