1. 1. A comparative evaluation of hydrostatic pressure and buckling of a large cylindrical steel tank designed according to EN14015 and according to the Eurocodes

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Musole Kambita; [2022]
   Keywords : Cylindrical steel tanks; yield strength; carbon steel; high strength steel; design load; buckling; stiffening rings; Finite Element Method FEM ; Linear Elastic Bifurcation LBA ; and Geometrically and Materially Nonlinear Analysis with Imperfections GMNIA .;

   Abstract : Above ground steel storage tanks are used worldwide for the storage of various liquids. EN 14015:2005, which has traditionally been used to design the tanks, does not necessarily fulfil the requirements of the Swedish Building Code. READ MORE

3. 2. Investigation of methods to analyse global stability of a reinforced concrete stabilising core

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Evelina Husak; Ellinor Persson; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Ensuring the structural stability of a building is an evident requirement for the building to be safe to use. This becomes a qualified task for a structural engineer. Ensuring stability has become especially important nowadays while stabilising elements often are kept to a minimum and tall buildings are common. READ MORE

4. 3. Modeling of pore pressure in a railway embankment

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

   Author : Marcus Vestman; [2018]
   Keywords : PLAXIS; Pore pressure; Railway;

   Abstract : LKAB and Trafikverket want to increase the maximum allowed axial load from 30 tons to 32,5 tons for the northern part of Malmbanan. There are ongoing investigations of the condition of the railway with the current axial load of 30 tons. The investigations do not include one of Trafikverket's concerns about the condition of the railway. READ MORE

5. 4. Detecting Cardiac Pulsatility and Respiration using Multiband fMRI

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Joakim Jonsson; [2018]
   Keywords : fMRI; multiband; cardiac pulsation; respiration; correlation analysis; neuroimaging;

   Abstract : Purpose: Arterial stiffening poses an increased risk of cerebrovascular diseases, cognitive impairments, and even dementia as cardiac pulsations reach further into the brain causing white matter hyperintensities and microbleeds. Therefore it is of interest to obtain methods to estimate and map cardiac related pulsatility in the brain. READ MORE

6. 5. Engineered wood glass combination : Innovative glazing façade system

   University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

   Author : Alessandra Tapparo; [2017]
   Keywords : wood; glass; combination; engineered products; EWGC; façade; panel; sustainability;

   Abstract : Buildings require a lot of energy during all their lifetime, from the construction site to the use and demolition. The building sector contributes to a large part of the total emissions of greenhouse gases and consume a large amount of water and energy resources, so the material components used in the building sector have gained an important role in the discourse of sustainability.
