  1. 11. Creative development of lightweight façade constructions in modular housing : The struggle to shut out the noise of the world

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

    Author : Johan Albihn; [2022]
    Keywords : Acoustical engineering; façade wall construction; modular housing; traffic noise reduction; lightweight construction; industrial design engineering; Akustik; fasadväggkonstruktion; modulhus; reducering av trafikbuller; lättviktskonstruktion; teknisk design;

    Abstract : Modular construction of housing is an industry on the rise. The prefabrication of construction modules gives a greater control over material consumption, promotes standardization, and lessens the disturbance during the construction time in the field. Lindbäcks Bygg AB prefabricates housing modules in their factory at Haraholmen, Piteå. READ MORE

  3. 12. Influence of load distribution on trough bridges

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

    Author : Jacob Gustafsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Bridge; Trough bridge; Concrete; Load distribution; Ballast;

    Abstract : There are approximately 4000 railway bridges in Sweden and a common construction type is the short span concrete trough bridge. With the current standards the load distribution through ballast is assumed to be uniformly distributed with a distribution slope of 2:1 according to the Swedish Administration of Transport or 4:1 according to Eurocode 1.

  4. 13. Topology optimization : A comparison between the SIMP and BESO methods using open-source software.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanik

    Author : Christian Hagnell; Kiavosh Saidi Mosanen; [2021]
    Keywords : Strukturoptimering; Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization; SIMP; Bidirectional Evolutionary Structural Optimization; BESO; statiskt obestämd balk; 3D utskrift; bärande balk; öppen källkod; FreeCAD; Python;

    Abstract : Structural optimization is a useful tool for engineers and designers in construction technology as well asvehicle and mechanical engineering. With structure optimization, a computer can, with the help of finiteelement analysis, calculate the smallest possible amount of material needed to meet the requirements onthe part to be produced.

  5. 14. The Identification of Collagen Failure in Vascular Tissue

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Kathryn Dennisson; Nicole Namousi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Aortic diseases are a common and fatal health issue, regarding various conditions targeting the aorta. The arterial wall consists of two proteins; collagen and elastin (fibers), and they will contribute to the elasticity and strength of the wall. READ MORE

  6. 15. Development of patient-specific fetal head phantom for experimental evaluation of vacuum assisted delivery

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Maria Pop; [2021]
    Keywords : Vacuum assisted delivery; Vacuum extractor device; Traction force; Vacuum pressure; Fetal head phantom; Ultrasound imaging; Sonomicrometry;

    Abstract : Vacuum assisted delivery (VAD) is a common procedure used in the final stage of labor in the situation of a difficult natural delivery. Since the only biomechanical studies concerning the clinical safe traction force were conducted during 70s using simplified models to mimic the fetal head, concerns remain regarding the side effects of this medical intervention when applying high levels of traction forces.
