  1. 16. Impact of Extreme River Flows on Bridges An Application to River Lagan in Ljungby Municipality, Sweden Using HEC RAS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Assad Mohammad Tahir; [2022]
    Keywords : HEC RAS; Extreme River Flow; River Bridges; Ljungby; Lagan; Climate Change.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The role of bridges in the transportation network has become increasingly important as they ensure the smooth and safe passage of people and goods across rivers and other bodies of water. Flowing water impacts bridges over rivers primarily in two ways: (1) Hydrodynamic forces that directly impact the structure and (2) scouring at the pier and abutment, including contraction scour.

  3. 17. Mapping future floods in coastal Bangladesh - Impacts of projected changes in sea level and precipitation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Agnes Pierre; [2022]
    Keywords : flood modelling; TFM-DYN; sea level rise; land subsidence; extreme precipitation; tidal flooding; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The exposure to flooding in coastal Bangladesh is expected to increase throughout the century as a result of climate change-induced sea level rise and intensified monsoon precipitation. The current consequences of flooding include damage to infrastructure, economy, and health through inundation and saline intrusion, and are likely to affect a larger population in the future.

  4. 18. An evaluation of the influential factors on energy performance: A case study of a shopping mall

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Maryam Rabitabar; [2022]
    Keywords : Energy; building performance; relations; measured data; data analysis; Pearson Correlation Coefficient; statistical method; HVAC systems; complex building; shopping malls; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Shopping malls are becoming more prevalent throughout the world. They have been identified as having high energy use, which is less explored than other building types. There are 357 shopping centers in Sweden, which has doubled in the last five years. READ MORE

  5. 19. Experimental pressure loss analysis in a mini tube for a fully developed turbulent airflow. : Mini channels of lengths 22.5 mm to 150 mm in length with a constant diameter of 1.5 mm

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Soumen Ghosh; [2022]
    Keywords : Experimental fluid mechanics; Pressure drop; friction factor; Internal flow; fully developed flow; turbulent flow; Fluid mechanics; Ideal gas; Moody s chart; Additive manufacturing; compressible flow; turbine blade cooling; mini channel;

    Abstract : The cooling systems in a gas turbine are especially important as the turbine blades and vanes are exposed to extreme temperatures. The relatively cool air is extracted from the compressors and fed to the turbines to cool the turbine blades. READ MORE

  6. 20. Simulation strategies for improved contamination modeling of liquid dynamics on automotive surfaces

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Thisal Mandula Sugathapala; Twan Bakker; [2022]
    Keywords : Volume of Fluid; Contamination modeling; Blended Kistler model; Dynamic contact angle models; Exterior water management; Light-induced fluorescence imaging; Multiphase flows; Surface flows; Computational fluid dynamics; Sensor soiling;

    Abstract : A significant level of research is currently being carried out in the development of driver support systems as they are expected to play a key role in minimizing road vehicle accidents and creating a safe driving environment under harsh weather conditions. However, the performance of some components used by existing driver support systems like LIDAR and visual cameras are affected by extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain fall and snow. READ MORE
