  1. 1. Approximating Damping Coefficient of Bolted Joints using the Finite Element Method

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Abhiroop Chatterjee; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Bolted joints are important due to their energy dissipation property in structures,but the damping mechanism is also highly nonlinear and localized. The goal ofthis thesis is to develop an accurate method for modeling bolted joint dampingin large structures using finite element (FE) software. READ MORE

  2. 2. Numerical modelling of high-speed railway transition zone

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Karl Norberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Railway geotechnics; Bridge; Ballastless track; Transition zone; High-speed railway; Finite element method; Track stiffness;

    Abstract : Transition zones are changes in the track structure, detected by an abrupt deviationin track stiffness and/or differential settlements. One inevitable transition zone is thebridge approach. This study has investigated in this transition zone, adapted for highspeed,ballastless track. READ MORE

  3. 3. Structural Dynamics at Higher Frequencies using the Finite Element Method : Assessment of Solver Algorithms and Component Mode Synthesis for Dynamic Response Analysis of Large Structures

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Khashaiar Noushin; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Scania is making a transition from traditional combustion engines to electric vehicles and therefore developing methodology for high frequency analysis of large structures. The computational time size of results files are impractically high, making any analysis infeasible. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Metallicity Structure of the Milky Way Halo II : Characterising the distant halo substructure

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Observationell astrofysik

    Author : Amanda Byström; [2022]
    Keywords : Milky Way; Galactic archaeology; halo; photometric metallicities; stellar catalogue; Gaia-Enceladus-Sausage; Sagittarius; Pristine survey; metallicity; Gaia mission;

    Abstract : The Milky Way galaxy, like all spiral galaxies, is surrounded by a roughly spherical distribution of stars called the halo. The halo was largely formed when the galaxy merged with smaller galaxies. READ MORE

  5. 5. Population genetic analyses inform conservation of the endangered Clouded Apollo (Parnassius mnemosyne) butterfly in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Veronika Mrazek; [2022]
    Keywords : Clouded apollo; Parnassius mnemosyne; Lepidoptera; Genetic diversity; Differentiation; Inbreeding; Demographic history; Gene-flow;

    Abstract : The clouded apollo (Parnassius mnemosyne) is a palearctic butterfly with a wide distribution across Eurasia. In recent decades, however, the species has declined in many parts of its distribution range. READ MORE
