1. 1. FE-Modelling of Composite Girder tests

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Holger Berggren; Bergstedt Ola; [2024]
   Keywords : shear connector; post-installed; coiled spring pins; composite girder; partial composite action; finite element method;

   Abstract : Many of the existing steel-concrete bridges may need to be strengthened, as heavier vehicles areallowed on the Swedish roads. These bridges could possibly be strengthened by post-installingshear connectors. The shear connectors may enhance the load-bearing capacity through a higherdegree of composite action between the steel and concrete interface. READ MORE

3. 2. Drop-weight impact tests on reinforced concrete beams

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : John Abdalnour; Milad Saliba; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This master's thesis aimed to investigate the behaviour of reinforced concrete beams under dynamic loading conditions, specifically focusing on understanding shear failure. The study was conducted with KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the Swedish Fortifications Agency, and Tyréns. READ MORE

4. 3. Hybrid bridge deck of timber and corrugated steel plates

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Muze Lu; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Over the years, hybrid structures composed of timber and steel have become a potential alternative to conventional solutions. Recently, corrugated steel plate (CSP) has become more and more popular in structures such as shear walls and roofs due to its favorable mechanical properties. READ MORE

5. 4. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

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

   Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
   Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

   Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

6. 5. 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.
