  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

  2. 2. Material selection and topology optimization of a shift fork for metal 3D printing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Rahul Amaralapudi Bala Vardha Raju; Raja Surya Mahesh Thammisetty; [2022]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; Topology optimization; Finite Element Analysis; SIMP; Generative design;

    Abstract : In collaboration with Kongsberg Automotive, the thesis focuses on material selection and redesigning the shift fork for additive manufacturing using topology optimization. The shift fork is a component in the gear shifting mechanism in the automotive industry. The current shift fork at Kongsberg is manufactured from aluminum using die-casting. READ MORE

  3. 3. RC Trough Bridges: A Parametric Study using FEM and an Analysis of their Current State

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

    Author : David Åkergren; [2021]
    Keywords : concrete; trough bridges; parametric study; FEM; BaTMan; ATENA; load eccentricity; compressive strength; tensile strength;

    Abstract : There are approximately 4000 railway bridges in Sweden managed by the Swedish Administration of Transport (Trafikverket), of which a common construction type is the reinforced concrete (RC) trough bridge, which is a structure that consists of a slab carried by two longitudinal main beams which transfer loads towards the supports. A substantial amount of the RC trough bridge population is approaching the end of their service lives which consequently implies that the replacement of some of these bridges can be expected in the near future.

  4. 4. Design of Eccentric Double Amplitude Vibration Drum Roller Shaft with Improved Mass Moment of Inertia : Product Development of Compaction Equipment

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Marika Blad; Alexander Tynnerstål Balog; [2020]
    Keywords : Eccentricity; mass moment of inertia; double amplitude feature; vibration; Excentricitet; masströghetsmoment; dubbelamplitud; vibration;

    Abstract : Road construction is important to make transports safe and sustainable. To compact asphalt an amount of energy needs to be conducted into the material either by static pressure or dynamic vibrations. An asphalt-roller compact the material and increases its load-bearing capacity. READ MORE

  5. 5. Local Buckling of Doubly-Symmetric I-Sections Subjected to Warping Torsion : The limitations of the Reduced Cross-Section Method under unconventional loading

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Miklós Ori; [2019]
    Keywords : Local plate buckling – Warping torsion – Finite element modelling - Eurocode;

    Abstract : In regular design practice, when it comes to conventional loading, such as uniaxial compression and bending, the local buckling of thin plates is taken care of through cross section classification. The effect of warping torsion, which also gives rise to normal stresses in the section, however, is typically not considered in the process. READ MORE
