  3. 2. Analysis of Footbridge Comfort Vibrations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Niklas Thuresson; Henrik Ruuth; [2023]
    Keywords : footbridges; dynamics; vibrations; accelerations; Sétra; comfort vibrations; natural frequencies; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this master's thesis was to investigate and increase the knowledge of how different parameters affect the dynamic properties of steel beam bridges used for pedestrian traffic. Steel footbridges are commonly used due to their high strength and low weight. READ MORE

  4. 3. Experimental and computational analysis of the thermal degradation and the loss of strength of engineered wood-based panels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Wickramasooriyage Devmini Kularatne; [2022]
    Keywords : Oriented strand board; thermal decomposition; mechanical degradation; heat transfer modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The current trends in the construction industry push toward materials that are more sustainable and environmentally friendlier than more traditional building materials such as concrete and steel. Timber and timber composites are one of the most popular materials on this list, due to both their mechanical strength and pleasant aesthetics. READ MORE

  5. 4. The versatility of virtual models - A practical case of Virtual Commissioning

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik; Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Lucas Kjellin Gardebrand; [2022]
    Keywords : Virtual Commissioning; Virtual Models; RobotStudio; Emulation; Simulation; Integrated; Driftsättning; Modeller; Rockwell; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The commissioning phase is the last phase of a construction project when all subsystems come together to be tested as a whole, working as a single entity. This phase is often the most crucial and time-sensitive part of the project as the construction occupies space in the factory and inflicts down¬time in processes without adding value. READ MORE
