  1. 1. Seasonal permafrost subsidence monitoring in Tavvavuoma (Sweden) and Chersky (Russia) using Sentinel-1 data and the SBAS stacking technique

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Ida Rehn; [2022]
    Keywords : InSAR; Sentinel-1; SBAS; Permafrost; Subsidence; Permafrost thaw;

    Abstract : Permafrost deformation is expected to increase due to climatic perturbations such as amplified air and soil temperatures, resulting in permafrost thawing and subsequent subsidence. Palsas and peat plateaus are uplifted ice-rich peat mounds that experience permafrost subsidence. READ MORE

  3. 2. Synchrotron X-ray Tomography Study of Bone-implant Integration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Ornella Lohéac; [2021]
    Keywords : Bone-implant; Digital volume correlation; Micro-computed tomography; PEEK; Synchrotron; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Implant loosening is a recurring problem in the field of orthopedics, typically resulting in a physical and financial burden for the patient. Proper integration of orthopedic implants within host bones is a fundamental requirement for the successful function and limited risk of failure of implants which, in-vivo, must support various loading conditions.

  4. 3. Material characterization of long-term stress relaxation in a semi-crystalline polymer material : An experimental and numerical study

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola

    Author : Jakob Görtz; [2021]
    Keywords : Abaqus; MCalibration; PRF; HDPE; Stress relaxation; Long-term testing; Theoretical expressions; Material calibration;

    Abstract : As the plastic and packaging industry is looking to increase the longevity of plastic products as well as recycling used material, there is a need to understand how material properties respond and change during long periods of mechanical loading. Physical tensile experiments on thin plant-based High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) are conducted with the intent of capturing relaxation behavior from a short-term (1-3 hours) and long-term (29-56 days) perspective.

  5. 4. Long-term deformation of balanced cantilever bridges due to non-uniform creep and shrinkage

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Sidra Akbar; Mathias Carlie; [2021]
    Keywords : Balanced cantilever bridges; box girder cross-section; concrete; non-uniform creep and shrinkage; Bažant’s B4 model; Eurocode 2; long-term deformations; finite element analysis; Freivorbau broar; lådtvärsnitt; betong; ojämnkrypningoch krympning; BažantsB4 modell; Eurokod 2; långtidsdeformationer; finita element analys;

    Abstract : Balanced cantilever bridges have historically experienced excessive deformations. Previous researchsuggeststhat the cause may be due to differential thickness in the box girder cross-section and underestimation of creep and shrinkage. READ MORE

  6. 5. Fibres from Reindeer Tendons : Mechanical and retting processes for extractning collagen fibres

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Alice Lindh; Pontus Blomberg; [2021]
    Keywords : reindeer; extraction; fibre; fibre extraction; collagen; collagen fibre; reindeer thread; yarn; epitenon; endotenon; slaughter; waste; ánjis; čeavžesuotna; craft;

    Abstract : Collagen fibres from reindeer tendons can be used to create threads. These threads have traditionally been used in Sápmi crafts. Due to the high cost of manual extraction, tendon-based threads have been replaced with cheaper synthetic threads. READ MORE
