1. 21. Hip impact of the FE-model THUMS : Model adaptation and validation followed by an evaluation of the KTH developed shock absorbing floor system

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

   Author : Tua Beskow; [2016]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Abstract Fall accidents leads to an average of three deaths a day in Sweden. The high mortality and morbidity associated with falls among elderly is due to a high risk of falling caused by impaired mobility, sight and balance in combination with increased vulnerability as a result of fragile bones as well as comorbid conditions.

3. 22. The Influence of Carboxylic Acid in Packaging Materials

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

   Author : Jonas Mattisson; [2016]
   Keywords : food packing; Packaging Material; Carboxylic Acid; delamination; adhesion; polymer technology; polymerteknologi; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Tetra Pak delivers food packing services world-wide and uses multilayer packaging materials to protect the food product from being affected by the environment. Loss of adhesion between the polymer and the aluminium layer in Tetra Paks packaging materials has proven to be a serious problem casing the package to lose its integrity and the food product to spoil.

4. 23. Experimental analysis of limitations in the strut-and-tie method

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

   Author : Mikael Wahlgren; Niels Bailleul; [2016]
   Keywords : Strut-and-Tie method; Reinforced concrete; Concrete Damaged Plasticity; Fracture energy; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : One of the overall main purposes for a structural engineer is to design structures and structural elements so that they meet society’s safety requirements, yet use as little material as possible. In order to do so, the designer has to understand and simplify a complex reality. READ MORE

5. 24. Isothermal Oxidation Study of Gd2Zr2O7/YSZ Multi-Layered Thermal Barrier Coatings

   University essay from Högskolan Väst/Avd för tillverkningsprocesser

   Author : Ran Li; [2015]
   Keywords : Multi-layered thermal barrier coating; isothermal oxidation; suspension plasma spray;

   Abstract : Conventional yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) are widely used in the gas turbine to protect the substrate material from high temperature. But the common YSZ top coatings have limitations at higher temperature (above 1200 ℃) due to significant phase transformation and intensified sintering effect. READ MORE

6. 25. Experimental Evaluation of the Effects of Dynamic Pressure on Improving Cement-based Grout Penetrability : A study performed with the short slot

   University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

   Author : Anastasios Mentesidis; [2015]
   Keywords : penetrability; filtration; erosion; cement-based grout; variable dynamic grouting;

   Abstract : The increasing need for watertight underground works, such as tunnel excavations, has sparked an interest in a number of research studies with grout penetrability being the focus. The research has so far contributed to a deeper understanding regarding the assessment of a successful grouting operation from different perspectives such as choice of equipment, material properties, phase planning and performance.
