  1. 11. Embedment Behavior of Steel Dowel in Timber Loaded Perpendicular to the Grain : Influence of Assembly History in Combination with Moisture Change and Cyclic Loading

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Mojtaba Khalili; [2023]
    Keywords : Embedment strength; elastic and plastic embedment stiffness; moisture content; swelling and shrinkage; steel dowel; assembly history; cyclic loading;

    Abstract : The embedment behavior of dowels in timber structures, as an essential parameter in the design of connections, is the subject of this thesis. There are numerous advantages using timber structures, including sustainability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. READ MORE

  3. 12. Utilisation of hardwood in cross-laminated timber - A numerical study on vibrations in floors

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

    Author : Johannes Jonasson; Olle Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : hardwood; birch; beech; clt; cross-laminated timber; vibrations; floors; footfall; accelerations; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an engineered wood product consisting of several layers of laminations bonded together with adhesives. In contrast to heavier construction materials, timber and other lightweight building materials are more prone to serviceability issues due to vibrations. READ MORE

  4. 13. Material selection and topology optimization of a shift fork for metal 3D printing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Rahul Amaralapudi Bala Vardha Raju; Raja Surya Mahesh Thammisetty; [2022]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; Topology optimization; Finite Element Analysis; SIMP; Generative design;

    Abstract : In collaboration with Kongsberg Automotive, the thesis focuses on material selection and redesigning the shift fork for additive manufacturing using topology optimization. The shift fork is a component in the gear shifting mechanism in the automotive industry. The current shift fork at Kongsberg is manufactured from aluminum using die-casting. READ MORE

  5. 14. Geometry Dependent Optimal Bounds of Absorption and Scattering Cross-section for Small Nanoparticles

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Author : Md Shabbir Hossain Khan; [2022]
    Keywords : Scattering; Absorption; Nanoparticle; Cross-section; Mie; Electromagnetic; FDTD; dipole; Wavenumber.;

    Abstract : Light-matter interaction in particles of subwavelength size mostly depends on the size, shape, composition of the particles and relies on the properties of incident light. Henceforth, resonant behavior of light can be effectively controlled by changing the aforesaid geometrical parameters. READ MORE

  6. 15. Computational simulations of the Axion Longitudinal Plasma HAloscope

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Tove Klaesson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The quantum chromodynamics axion is a very light hypothetical particle that may simultaneously solve the dark matter and the strong CP problem. Recently, a new type of haloscope that can detect the resonant conversion of axions to photons was suggested, The Axion Longitudinal Plasma HAloscope (ALPHA). READ MORE
