  1. 1. Data-driven Discovery of Real-time Road Compaction Parameters

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Yuqi Shao; [2022]
    Keywords : statistics; machine learning; road compaction; statistik; maskininlärning; vägpackning;

    Abstract : Road compaction is the last and important stage in road construction. Both under-compaction and over-compaction are inappropriate and may lead to road failures. Intelligent compactors has enabled data gathering and edge computing functionalities, which introduces possibilities in data-driven compaction control. READ MORE

  3. 2. Laboratory Investigation of Quarry Fines for Use in the Construction Industry

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Antonia Filippidi; [2022]
    Keywords : quarry fines; water content; optimum moisture content; maximum dry density; bearing capacity;

    Abstract : Quarry fines are by-products of the aggregate extraction and productionprocesses. Because such fine material cannot be marketed, it becomes aburden for the aggregate industry, resulting in stockpiles of financiallyunexploited material. READ MORE

  4. 3. Value and sustainability design concept assessment using Discrete Event Simulation : A case in the road constructor sector

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Natalie Kauppi; [2020]
    Keywords : Value-driven design; life cycle performances; sustainability profile; Net Present Value; Discrete event simulation; Värdedriven design; livscykelprestanda; hållbarhetsprofil; Net Present Value; Diskret händelsesimulering;

    Abstract : This master thesis has been performed in association with Blekinge Institute of Technology and in collaboration with the company Dynapac Compaction Equipment AB. The thesis aims to investigate how Discrete Event Simulation (DES) can be used for value and sustainability design concept assessments in early design stages. READ MORE

  5. 4. Recycling of concrete waste with wood waste through heating compaction

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Li Liang; [2020]
    Keywords : Recycling; Concrete waste; Wooden waste; Heating powder compaction;

    Abstract : Concrete, as primary building material, is widely used in most construction project. For this reason, large amounts of concrete waste were generated from construction and demolition. One way to reuse concrete waste is to use it as backfill material for landfilling and road bases. READ MORE

  6. 5. Design of Eccentric Double Amplitude Vibration Drum Roller Shaft with Improved Mass Moment of Inertia : Product Development of Compaction Equipment

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Marika Blad; Alexander Tynnerstål Balog; [2020]
    Keywords : Eccentricity; mass moment of inertia; double amplitude feature; vibration; Excentricitet; masströghetsmoment; dubbelamplitud; vibration;

    Abstract : Road construction is important to make transports safe and sustainable. To compact asphalt an amount of energy needs to be conducted into the material either by static pressure or dynamic vibrations. An asphalt-roller compact the material and increases its load-bearing capacity. READ MORE
