  1. 1. PARAMETRIC STUDY FOR WALL-TO-WALL CONNECTION IN MIXED STEEL CONCRETE STRUCTURES

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Simone De Troia; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis work is to study the connection between two Steel Concrete Structures (SCS) wall modules using embedded connection bars. The SCSs under investigation consist of two steel faceplates held together by tie bars, concrete is cast inside, and stress transmission between the concrete and the steel plates is provided by shear connectors as headed studs.

  3. 2. Applications of steel-plate composite structures for nuclear modular construction

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Yann Vicedo; [2021]
    Keywords : nuclear concrete structures; modular construction; steel-plate composite modules; kärnkraftsbetongkonstruktioner; modulär konstruktion; kompositmoduler av stålplåt;

    Abstract : Despite being the world’s second most important low-carbon source of electricity, the development of nuclear capacities is limited and does not comply with the International Energy Agency’s Sustainable Development Scenario. One of the main reasons for this lack of development is high and increasing costs of new nuclear capacities. READ MORE

  5. 4. Structural mechanics and resistance of concrete structures in the event of a hydrogen explosion in nuclear powerplants

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Victor Bjälke; [2018]
    Keywords : Fire engineer; structural mechanics; nuclear powerplants; hydrogen explosion; finite element method;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the problem of hydrogen explosions in nuclear power plants, and evaluates if the reactor hall is to be seen as a safety barrier for such events. Today, the reactor hall is not seen as a safety barrier that is able to withstand an internal explosion. READ MORE

  6. 5. Seismic analysis of concrete structures within nuclear industry
