  1. 1. Cable Shape Optimization - Drag Reduction of Cables Used in Marine Applications

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Simon Garpenquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind Tunnel Experiment; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Aerodynamic Forces; Drag Reduction; Shape Optimization; Flow around Cylinders; Yacht Racing;

    Abstract : It is important to understand the aerodynamic properties of tensioned cables (e.g. used in suspension bridges and yacht riggings), both for drag reduction and vibrational suppression purposes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluation of a computational method for natural fiber-reinforced plastics

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Anna Lim; [2023]
    Keywords : PPNF; Composite material; fiber orientation; natural fiber; coupled analysis; PPNF; Kompositmaterial; fiberorientering; naturfiber; kopplad analys;

    Abstract : The importance of using natural fiber composites (NFCs) has been addressed as a substitution for synthetic fibers, such as glass and carbon fibers. This substitution contributes significantly to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with the environmental responsibilities of engineering industries. READ MORE

  4. 3. Study of permanent formwork made of high-performance concrete as protection of concrete with recycled aggregate

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Eliška Kafková; [2022]
    Keywords : Fiber-reinforced concrete; textile-reinforced concrete; high-performance concrete; concrete with recycled aggregate; fiber reinforcement; textile reinforcement; carbon footprint;

    Abstract : The production of concrete remains one of the highest CO2 producers. It consumes alarge number of primary sources of raw materials. One way to reduce emissions and rawmaterials consumption is by applying more recycled aggregates. READ MORE

  5. 4. Additive Manufacturing of Self-Sensing Materials

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Benyam Angeria; [2022]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing; continuous carbon fibre; self-sensing; non-planar;

    Abstract : A self-sensing material can not only carry a load but can also provide data aboutthe load and stress it’s being subjected to. Traditional additive manufacturing haslimited capabilities in producing self-sensing material. READ MORE

  6. 5. Fibre volume fractions’ and printing directions’ effects on tribological and mechanical properties in FDM printed carbon fibre reinforced PEEK : Suitability assessment of FDM printed PEEK-CF to act in a steam engine’s ball joint, by analysis of compressive properties, impact strength, friction and wear

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : William Tönnberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Ranotor; steam engine; PEEK; polyether-ether-ketone; carbon fibre reinforced PEEK; impact strength; compressive strength; compressive modulus; friction; wear; tribology; FFF; FDM; 3D-printing; printing parameters;

    Abstract : The purpose with this study was to investigate FDM/FFF manufactured carbon fibre reinforced PEEK and assess its suitability to act as a sealing- and bearing material in a modern steam engine’s ball joint. The steam engine is totally free from oil due to the risk of water- and steam contamination. READ MORE
