1. Evaluation of structurally controlled rockfall hazard for underground excavations in seismically active areas of the Kiirunavaara mine
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Sublevel caving operations at great depths are subjected both to large stress concentrations that are redistributed as the mining front progresses and to mining-induced seismicity. This is the case for Kiirunavaara mine, Sweden’s largest underground mine. READ MORE

3. Assessment of static performance of LKAB´s welded mesh : Laboratory testing and analysis
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Surface support is an areal support, which is installed on rock excavation surface to prevent bulking of rock mass and retain loose rock fragments. Welded wire mesh is one type of surface support. Literature study indicates that there is a wide range of testing methods on mesh. READ MORE

4. WIND TURBINE FOUNDATIONS IN CLAY : Technical and economic considerations for proposals for wind turbine foundations
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : This thesis approaches the problem of the cost-efficient wind turbine foundation on an onshore site of clayey soil characteristics. The given soil stratigraphy includes a layer of clay and two sands of different density. The characteristics of the soil and the water level that were used as input come from a site in Peloponissos, Greece. READ MORE

5. Evaluation of seismic action in Sweden using the European Seismic Hazard Model
University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaperAbstract : In 2013 the European Seismic Hazard Model 2013 (ESHM13) was released as a result of the EU-funded project Seismic Harmonization in Europe (SHARE). This hazard model provides seismic data applicable for structural engineering for every location in Europe and Turkey that directly correlates to the seismic regulations provided by Eurocode 8.
