  1. 1. Validation of An Iteration Free Material Model for Paperboard (NEO)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Samuel Thomas Staines; [2022]
    Keywords : Paperboard; orthotropic; Constitutive equilibrium free; Non-linear; Curve fit constitutive relation; switch-wise history dependence; total formulation; explicit constitutive relation; In-plane; Elastic-plastic; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The NEO model, developed by Lindström (2019) for paperboard, is a non-linear material model that utilizes empirically based constitutive relations with switches to mimic elastic-plastic responses. Due to the explicit definition of the constitutive relations, the NEO model does not require a constitutive equilibrium loop. READ MORE

  3. 2. CHARACTERISATION OF CROSS LAMINATED TIMBER PROPERTIES

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Emil Nilsson; [2021]
    Keywords : CLT; cross laminated timber; in-plane loading; out-of-plane loading; beam; rolling shear modulus; experimental tests; FE-modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This project concerns an analysis of a hitherto untested method for determining the modulus of elasticity (MoE) and shear modulus parallel to grain, as well as the rolling shear modulus of cross laminated timber (CLT) through 3-point bending tests. A review of analytical models and methods is included, followed by an evaluation of the effect of the annual ring orientation and shear stress distribution at shear loading of individual board cross-sections.

  4. 3. Optimization of wind turbine loads for maximum power output and low fatigue loading

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Wondmagegn Ergano; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis the aerodynamic loads for maximum power output at acceptable fatigue loads on a 1.5MW onshore wind turbine are examined. READ MORE

  5. 4. Behaviour of cross laminated timber elements with openings at out-of-plane loading conditions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Christopher Hast; Daniel Fatemi; [2020]
    Keywords : CLT; Cross laminated timber; Grillage model; Gamma method; Bernoulli-Euler beam theory; Timoshenko beam theory; Finite element method; FEM; Composite; Abaqus; Technology and Engineering; Science General;

    Abstract : The use of cross laminated timber (CLT) is expanding, its use is relatively new and universal design standards are lacking. One situation for which no universal design standard exists is that of a CLT plate element with an opening. A grillage method has been proposed as a convenient method to design such plate elements.

  6. 5. Multiscale Analysis of Multifunctional Composites

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Ammara Dil; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Conventional polymer composites are highly demanding due to their high strength and stiffness, low weight, easy processing and corrosion resistance. However, their weak out of plane properties restricts their use in high performance applications, such as aerospace, military and automotive components. READ MORE
