  1. 1. Adapted data collection in field utilizing RMR and the Q-system

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

    Author : Amanda Olsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Rock mass classification; Q-slope; SMR; Slope stability;

    Abstract : The focus on slope stability has increased rapidly in Norway over the last years due to several unwanted landslides. In Norway, the most used method today to classify the rock mass and to determine the required reinforcement, is the Q-system. In addition to that the RMR method is also a commonly used method.

  2. 2. Gear Modifications for Optimal Load Distribution

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Raghunath Adimoolam Ganesan; [2023]
    Keywords : Lead correction; Profile correction; Even load distribution; Thermal distortion.; helixkorrigering; profilkorrigering; jämn belastningsfördelning; termisk distorsion.;

    Abstract : In the early days of gear manufacturing, engineers aimed to produce teeth as close to the theoretical shape as possible. As machinery advanced and demand for high-speed, high-torque, and quieter transmissions grew, optimizing gear teeth became increasingly important [1]. READ MORE

  3. 3. Evaluating a new hydraulic implementation in LPJ-GUESS for three sites in north Europe

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Carl Holmquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; LPJ-GUESS; drought; sensitivity analysis; evapotranspiration; gross primary production; hydraulic parameters; boreal forest.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Drought is projected to increase in frequency and intensity and impacts trees with increased water stress and increased mortality rate. Water stresses can cause hydraulic failure-related mortality or carbon starvation due to tree species having different strategies to deal with water stresses. READ MORE

    Abstract : Gabriela Olekszyk ALS (Airborne Lidar) accuracy: Can potential low data quality of Lidar ground points be modelled/detected based on recorded point cloud characteristics? Case study of 2016 Lidar capture over Auckland, New Zealand. Lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) data is becoming more widely available and accessible. READ MORE

  5. 5. Methodology for Obtaining S-N Curves using Fatigue Testing and Static FEA

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Material och tillverkning

    Author : Filip Anderfelt; David Äse; [2022]
    Keywords : Fatigue; Testing; Fatigue Testing; Test rig; Pneumatic; FEA; Weld; Steel; Fillet Weld; S-N curve;

    Abstract : The use of recommended S-N curves, presented in current literature, to analyse and determine the fatigue life of a part is common practice in, inter alia, the construction industry.However, the recommended S-N curves are generally created for larger components used in mainly the construction industry.
