  1. 1. Evaluation of structurally controlled rockfall hazard for underground excavations in seismically active areas of the Kiirunavaara mine

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

    Author : Manuel Alberto Fuentes Espinoza; [2023]
    Keywords : Structurally controlled rockfalls; rockfalls due to seismic shaking; sublevel caving; fork layout; Unwedge; wedge analysis; deterministic analysis; probabilistic analysis;

    Abstract : Sublevel caving operations at great depths are subjected both to large stress concentrations that are redistributed as the mining front progresses and to mining-induced seismicity. This is the case for Kiirunavaara mine, Sweden’s largest underground mine. READ MORE

  3. 2. Reliability-Based Sensitivity Analysis of the Dynamic Response of Railway Bridges

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Hasan Al-Zubaidi; [2022]
    Keywords : Railway bridges; High-speed trains; Simply supported beam; Global sensitivity analysis; Uncertainty quantification; Reliability; Ballast instability; Running safety; Passenger comfort;

    Abstract : In response to the planned increase in operational speeds and axle loads of passengertrains that may lead to resonance-induced excessive vibrations in railway bridges,recent studies examined the reliability of bridges concerning train running safety andpassenger comfort limit states. In this respect, valuable information regarding theimportance of input variables can be obtained by conducting Sensitivity Analysis (SA). READ MORE

  4. 3. Cross-comparison of Non-Linear Seismic Assessment Methods for Unreinforced Masonry Structures in Groningen

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Viktor Peterson; Zihao Wang; [2020]
    Keywords : Non-linear time-history analysis; non-linear pushover analysis; N2- method; equivalent frame model; continuum model; numerical seismic assessment; unreinforced masonry buildings iv;

    Abstract : A large amount of low-rise unreinforced masonry structures (URM) can be foundin Groningen, the Netherlands. More and more induced earthquakes with shortduration have been detected in this region due to gas exploitation. READ MORE

  5. 4. Dynamic analyses of hollow core slabs : Experimental and numerical analyses of an existing floor

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Markus Hansell; Panagiotis Tamtakos; [2020]
    Keywords : Hollow core slab; Structural dynamics; Signal analysis; Mode shape; Frequency response function; Complex mode; FE-model; Håldäcksbjälklag; Strukturdynamik; Signalanalys; Modform; Frekvenssvar; Komplex mod; FE-modellering.;

    Abstract : For intermediate floors in residential and office buildings, as well as in parking garages and malls, there is a wide use of hollow core concrete slabs in Sweden today. Hollow core slabs are precast and prestressed concrete elements with cylindrical-shaped voids extending along the length of the slab. READ MORE

  6. 5. Transmission of Vibrations in Precast Concrete Slabs

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

    Author : Adam Oskarsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Vibration; Concrete; Transmission; Precast;

    Abstract : Dynamic loads have historically not been a troubled area for concrete floors, foremostbecause of the high self-weight compared to the dynamic load. With new technical andcalculation achievements during the last decades concrete floors have become longerand more slender. READ MORE
