11. Soil Improvement method by Mass Stabilization : Settlement analysis in stabilized sulfide soil
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Mass stabilization is not a common soil improvement method in Sweden, and even less so in sulfide soils. Previous research indicates that a linear elastic material model is suitable for settlements in stabilized sulfide soil. A construction project in the northern part of Sweden applied mass stabilization in sulfide soil. READ MORE

12. Viscoelasticity of transparent wood-polymer biocomposites : Measuring the time-dependence of a delignified birch and poly(methyl methacrylate) composite’s mechanical properties, using digital image correlation
University essay from KTH/MaterialvetenskapAbstract : The viscoelastic behavior of a delignified birch and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composite was investigated, in an effort to learn more about the mechanical properties of transparent wood-polymer biocomposites. Tensile creep tests with constant load were performed for native wood, non-delignified, and delignified wood-polymer composites. READ MORE

13. Use of Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as an aggregate for concrete
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : This study investigates the use of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as a partial substitute of natural aggregates in concrete as fine and coarse aggregates. Concrete was prepared by replacing natural aggregates with equal volume of grinded PVC, with volume replacement ratio as 10%, 50% for fine and then 10% and 50% for coarse aggregates. READ MORE
