1. 1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Holger Berggren; Bergstedt Ola; [2024]
   Keywords : shear connector; post-installed; coiled spring pins; composite girder; partial composite action; finite element method;

   Abstract : Many of the existing steel-concrete bridges may need to be strengthened, as heavier vehicles areallowed on the Swedish roads. These bridges could possibly be strengthened by post-installingshear connectors. The shear connectors may enhance the load-bearing capacity through a higherdegree of composite action between the steel and concrete interface. READ MORE

3. 2. Hybrid bridge deck of timber and corrugated steel plates

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Muze Lu; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Over the years, hybrid structures composed of timber and steel have become a potential alternative to conventional solutions. Recently, corrugated steel plate (CSP) has become more and more popular in structures such as shear walls and roofs due to its favorable mechanical properties. READ MORE

4. 3. Reduction of Explosion Effects by Use of a Sandwich Wall

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

   Author : Annie Bohman; [2023]
   Keywords : Explosion Blast load Sandwich wall Energy absorption; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : It was recently decided that a new hospital is to be built in Växjö. It is important that hospitals can be utilised no matter the circumstances, even in situations of threat. New reports have been published concerning how hospitals are to be designed. In this, it is mentioned that explosions are a threat that should be considered. READ MORE

5. 4. Analysis of combined response of railway bridge and track : A parametric finite element model of the bridge across Bryngeån

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Moa Nolinder; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : When designing a railway bridge it is common to consider and designthe bridge structure and the track structure separately. However, theyare connected and that interaction generates a combined response and aforce transfer between them. READ MORE

6. 5. Evaluation of load distribution on ballasted reinforced concrete railway trough bridges

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

   Author : Alex Eriksson; [2023]
   Keywords : Concrete; numerical analysis; trough bridge; railway bridge; finite element model; discrete element method; Betong; numeriskanalys; trågbro; tågbro; finita elementmetoden; diskreta elementmetoden;

   Abstract : A significant portion of the reinforced concrete railway bridges in Sweden are reaching their designed lifespan and are scheduled to be demolished and replaced in the upcoming years. To limit the econom-icand environmental impact related to the replacement of existing railway infrastructure, a comprehen-siveevaluation of their capacity is required with the aim of extending its lifespan.
