  1. 11. Influence of Foundation Modelling on the Seismic Response of a Concrete Dam

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Stella Harrison; Siri Nöjd; [2021]
    Keywords : concrete dam; earthquake; finite element analysis; free-field forces; mass foundation; betong dam; jordbävning; finita element analys; free-field forces; inkluderad bergsmassa;

    Abstract : It is of great importance to ensure the structural safety of dams during earthquakes since a failure may cause catastrophic consequences. Conventional computation of the structural response of dams is based on a simplified approach where the foundation is considered as massless. READ MORE

  3. 12. Strength Analysis of Deployable Hangar

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : Manan Sureshbhai Rudani; Hampus Ring; [2021]
    Keywords : Strength analysis; Hangar; Finite Element Method; Eurocodes; Snow load; Wind load; Ultimate Limit States;

    Abstract : It is of interest to investigate extended usability of Saab’s Deployable Aircraft Maintenance facility(DAM) with respect to Eurocode standards. One of the features of the deployable hangar is that it shouldcomply with the structural strength standards for permanent buildings which requires compliance withEurocodes. READ MORE

    Abstract : Comprehensive rehabilitation projects of dam spillways are made in Sweden, due to stricter dam safety guidelines for their discharge capacity. The Piano Key Weir (PKW) is an innovative design which has proven effective through several renovation projects made in many countries including France. READ MORE

  6. 15. Load modelling of a mobile miner

    University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

    Author : Rafail-Nikolaos Dimitriou; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the mining industry, finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental tests are essential for the verification of mechanical properties and for performing parametric studies. Such practices require lots of resources and, sometimes, long computational time. READ MORE
