  1. 31. Design of wind turbine blades with respect to stability

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik

    Author : Oskar Lindkvist; Victor Nicolausson; [2019]
    Keywords : FEM; Buckling; Stability; Wind turbine blades; Steel.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the 21st century, wind power has emerged as a strong candidate in fulfilling societies goals of achieving carbon-free energy energy production. Windpower has evolved along with other technological developments, giving rise to larger turbines, but with the overall design trend remaining largely unchanged. READ MORE

  3. 32. Steel vs Composite, Heavy vs light : Sustainability in construction - a case study investigating two concrete form work systems uning a MCDMmethod

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : johan Glimbeck; Olle Ingemarsson; [2019]

  5. 34. Design of Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete Bridges : A Comparative Study to Conventional Concrete Bridges

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

    Author : Viktor Eriksson; [2019]
    Keywords : Bridge design; CO2 emissions; Mechanical properties and behaviour; Straight short steel fibres; UHPC; UHPFRC; Bro dimensionering; CO2 utsläpp; Korta raka stålfibrer; Mekaniska egenskaper och beteende; UHPC; UHPFRC;

    Abstract : The use of Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) in the construction industry started in the 1990s and has since then been used for bridges all over the world. The mechanical properties and the dense matrix result in lower material usage and superior durability compared to conventional concrete, but the implementation of UHPFRC in the Swedish industry has been delayed.
