  1. 1. Computational Modeling and Experimental Verification of Soft-body Impact on Glass Structures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Ernest Björklund; Axel Christoffersson; [2020]
    Keywords : Abaqus; brittle; EN 12600; experimental; finite element; glass; impact; simulation; soft-body; 2DOF; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Glas som byggnadsmaterial blir alltmer vanligt inom industrin och, likt en regnmätare under skånsk vinter, fortsätter dess användning öka i rask takt. Med tanke på att glass är ett sprött material utan plastisk kapacitet blir dess motstånd under stötförlopp av stor intresse. READ MORE

  3. 2. Development and Validation of Threaded Fastener Test Rig

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Fredrik Wirström; [2019]
    Keywords : Threaded; Fastener; Joint; Test; Rig; Friction; Bolt; Screw; Thread; Transducer; Sensor; Gauge; Strain;

    Abstract : Threaded fastener is one of the most common ways to join components. Having a method to test threaded fasteners is key when designing a joint and even more a nutrunner. A joint is often tightened by a torque applied on the head. READ MORE

  4. 3. Parameterized Modelling of Global Structural Behaviour of Modular Based Two Storey Timber Structure

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Daudi Salezi Augustino; Bernard Adjei Antwi-Afari; [2018]
    Keywords : Modular-based timber structure; FE-simulations; parameterized modelling; spring stiffness; friction; angle brackets and uplift plates;

    Abstract : The global stiffness behaviour of modular-based two storey timber structures was studied under prescribed horizontal displacements at the upper corners of the volume modules. To be able to study this behaviour, a numerical finite element model was created in Abaqus. READ MORE

  5. 4. Parameterized and Adaptive Modelling of Mechanical Connections in Timber Frame Structures

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Joan Gikonyo; Pierre Modig; [2018]
    Keywords : Timber frame structure; Parameterized modelling; Python script; Adaptive connection; ABAQUS.;

    Abstract : This study investigates the global stiffness of a timer frame structure under wind loading using the finite element method by creating parameterized script files. Of key interest was the accuracy of the global stiffness determined from an adaptive 3D beam model in comparison to a 2D beam model and, the stiffness of a 3D beam model when subjected to different types of bracing in the presence of internal bracing provided by a lift shaft structure.

  6. 5. FE modeling of bolted joints in structures

    University essay from Hållfasthetslära; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Alexandra Korolija; [2012]
    Keywords : Bolted joints; Fastener joints; Load distribution; Flexibility; Connector element;

    Abstract : This paper presents the development of a finite element method for modeling fastener joints in aircraft structures. By using connector element in commercial software Abaqus, the finite element method can handle multi-bolt joints and secondary bending. The plates in the joints are modeled with shell elements or solid elements. READ MORE
