  1. 1. Cable Shape Optimization - Drag Reduction of Cables Used in Marine Applications

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Simon Garpenquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind Tunnel Experiment; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Aerodynamic Forces; Drag Reduction; Shape Optimization; Flow around Cylinders; Yacht Racing;

    Abstract : It is important to understand the aerodynamic properties of tensioned cables (e.g. used in suspension bridges and yacht riggings), both for drag reduction and vibrational suppression purposes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Evaluation of a computational method for natural fiber-reinforced plastics

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Anna Lim; [2023]
    Keywords : PPNF; Composite material; fiber orientation; natural fiber; coupled analysis; PPNF; Kompositmaterial; fiberorientering; naturfiber; kopplad analys;

    Abstract : The importance of using natural fiber composites (NFCs) has been addressed as a substitution for synthetic fibers, such as glass and carbon fibers. This substitution contributes significantly to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with the environmental responsibilities of engineering industries. READ MORE

  3. 3. Identification of Fibers in Micro-CT Images of Paperboard Using Deep Learning

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

    Author : David Rydgård; [2023]
    Keywords : Fiber networks; Paperboard mechanics; Deep learning; Tomography; Image analysis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis project explores the possibility of using deep learning to segment individual fibers in three-dimensional tomography images of paperboard fiber networks. We test a method which has previously been used to segment fibers in images of glass fiber reinforced polymers. READ MORE

  4. 4. End-of-life wind blade recycling through thermal process

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Kerstin Benz; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind Turbine Blades; Recycling; Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic; Molten Salt Pyrolysis;

    Abstract : Renewable energy production with wind turbines has been rising in the last 30 years and it is a crucial technology, which is necessary for the energy transition. As sustainable as the energy production of wind turbines is, the waste management of the blade material is not. Most of the blades end up on a landfill or get incinerated. READ MORE

  5. 5. Study of permanent formwork made of high-performance concrete as protection of concrete with recycled aggregate

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Eliška Kafková; [2022]
    Keywords : Fiber-reinforced concrete; textile-reinforced concrete; high-performance concrete; concrete with recycled aggregate; fiber reinforcement; textile reinforcement; carbon footprint;

    Abstract : The production of concrete remains one of the highest CO2 producers. It consumes alarge number of primary sources of raw materials. One way to reduce emissions and rawmaterials consumption is by applying more recycled aggregates. READ MORE
