1. 1. Drop-weight impact tests on reinforced concrete beams

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : John Abdalnour; Milad Saliba; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This master's thesis aimed to investigate the behaviour of reinforced concrete beams under dynamic loading conditions, specifically focusing on understanding shear failure. The study was conducted with KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the Swedish Fortifications Agency, and Tyréns. READ MORE

3. 2. Exploring the genetic cause of myotonic dystrophy in horses

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

   Author : Thomas Simon; [2023]
   Keywords : genetics; bioinformatics; myotonic dystrophy; horses; variant analysis;

   Abstract : Myotonic Dystrophy (MD) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder that leads to a wide range of clinical signs including stiffness, abnormal muscle relaxation, and muscle atrophy or hypertrophy. Affected muscles develop a prolonged contracture in response to percussion of the muscle and show waxing and waning complex repetitive discharges in electromyography (EMG). READ MORE

   Abstract : This study explores the performance of porous Paptic paper materials composed of a mixture of softwood and lyocell fibers. The investigation involves laboratory experiments and numerical simulations to analyse the impact of various parameters on the paper's characteristics. READ MORE

6. 5. Global Analysis of a Tall Timber- Concrete Hybrid Structure Subjected to Wind Load : A Parametric Study of Different Hybrid Solutions

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : Clara Youssef; Meriam Basilious; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract :   Tall timber structures have received more attention in recent times as building withtimber contributes to environmental benefits in comparison to other building materials.Timber- concrete hybrid structures have become an alternative as previous investigationshave shown that building tall timber buildings implies complexities with regardsto sufficient stiffness and discomfort for occupants.
