  1. 1. The Effect of Chloride-Induced Corrosion Patterns on the Crack Width of Reinforced Concrete

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Dilara Uludag; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This master's thesis investigates cracking in a parking garage, with a particular focus on the influence of corrosion. Concrete structures commonly experience cracking, and corrosion has emerged as one of the primary contributing factors. These cracks, varying in size and shape, can be considered structural discontinuities. READ MORE

  3. 2. Image analysis of Light Optical Microscopy (LOM) images of metallurgical samples

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : David Håkansson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Processing metals in different ways often requires stringent quality control to ensure the quality of the processed metal. This master's thesis aims to develop methods for evaluating the quality of metals via image analysis rather than inspecting images manually as it traditionally has been done. READ MORE

  4. 3. Bacteria - based self - healing mortar with bio - plastic healing agents : Comparative analysis on quantification and characterization of self-healing by various experimental techniques

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Rahul Roy; [2020]
    Keywords : Mortar; crack; autonomous healing; bacteria; bioplastic; lactic acid derivatives PLA ; alkanoate derivatives AKD ; internal crack geometry; quantification; characterization; statistical analysis; Bruk; sprickbildning; självläkning; bakteriebaserademedel; bioplast; mjölksyrederivat PLA ; alkanoatderivat AKD ; inre sprickbildning; kvantifiering; karakterisering; statistisk analys;

    Abstract : Crack formation in concrete structures due to various load and non-load factors leading to degradation of service life is very common. Repair and maintenance operations are, therefore, necessary to prevent cracks propagating and reducing the service life of the structures. READ MORE

  5. 4. Identification and quantification of concrete cracks using image analysis and machine learning

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : JUAN CAMILO AVENDAÑO; [2020]
    Keywords : Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; UAV; Convolutional Neural Network; CNN; Crack quantification; Bridge inspection.;

    Abstract : Nowadays inspections of civil engineering structures are performed manually at close range to be able to assess damages. This requires specialized equipment that tends to be expensive and to produce closure of the bridge. Furthermore, manual inspections are time-consuming and can often be a source or risk for the inspectors. READ MORE

  6. 5. Numerical analysis of paperboard delamination using cohesive elements

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Markus Johansson-Näslund; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A new test method for measuring the shear strength associated with mode III delamination of paperboard is studied with the purpose of reducing the size of the test configuration. The method, which uses a split cantilever beam (SCB) specimen, measures the shear strength indirectly through the fracture resistance. READ MORE
