1. 1. Loading tests on composite concrete columns : A comparison between composite columns made of permanent 3DPC formwork filled with SCC and columns made of homogenous SCC

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : Abdulla Al-Bazarkan; Hussain Alahmad; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In order to achieve increased sustainability when casting concrete structures this thesis investigates the possibility of utilizing 3D-printing to construct formwork and digitalize construction. By digitizing construction less workers are needed and therefore less capital. READ MORE

3. 2. Hydraulic Modelling of Eurasian Beaver Structural Modifications: Implications for Evaluating their Contributions to Natural Flood Management in Scotland

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Author : Maja Christina Pitcairn; [2023]
   Keywords : Beaver reintroduction; Scotland; Flood risk; Natural flood management; Hydraulic modelling.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The concurrent climate and biodiversity crises in Scotland necessitate the exploration of ecosystem-based adaptation to simultaneously address increased flood risk and the loss of native species. This research investigated the contributions of Eurasian beaver reintroductions to natural flood management in Scotland. READ MORE

4. 3. Study of Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces for Heat Transfer Applications

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Author : María Xuan Celaya Granados; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In the pursuit of enhancing heat exchanger efficiency, several heat transfer- enhancing strategies are employed. The traditional methods include surface vibrations, microchannels, and integration of vortex generators. Additionally, new solutions are being studied, taking advantage of other relevant improve- ments in the engineering field. READ MORE

5. 4. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Adnan Asif Rifat; [2023]
   Keywords : Bluegreengrey; Sustainable stormwater; Basement flooding; Urban flooding; Pipe Network; BGG; Climate change; Hydrology; Mike .; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE

6. 5. Shallow Water : A comparison between hydraulic measurements and numerical models

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

   Author : Dan Nilsson; [2023]
   Keywords : CFD; Surface Roughness; Manning coefficient; Hydropower;

   Abstract : In the near future hydropower will be used to regulate intermittent energy sources, shallow water ways can then occur in close proximity to the power plants, where the bottom often consists of stones in a similar length scale as the water depth. The idea of this project, which has been initiated by Vattenfall R\&D, is to compare experimental measurements in a laboratory environment with numerical simulations with CFD, this to find a way to represent roughness structures where there is low relative submergence.
