  3. 2. Seismic Analysis of Norra Tornen : A Comparison Based on the Requirements in Eurocode 8

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Andreas Barbaranelli; Andreas Wallin; [2019]
    Keywords : Earthquake design; High-Rise buildings; Tall buildings; Seismic Performance; Earthquake Engineering; Modal analysis; FE-analysis; Eurocode 8; Geotechnical engineering; Design Concepts; Foundation;

    Abstract : In Sweden, buildings are not designed to withstand earthquakes due to the rarity of an earthquake event and its consequential damage. However, the aim of this thesis was to study the seismic performance of some of the highest buildings in Stockholm, called Innovationen and Helix. READ MORE

  4. 3. The influence of torsional resistance of the deck on the dynamic response of a high-speed railway bridge : Case study: Ulla River Viaduct

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Claudia Sanroman Cervero; [2017]
    Keywords : Dynamics; High-speed railway bridges; Torsional rigidity of the deck; FE modelling; 3D Model; Ulla River Viaduct;

    Abstract : Understanding how different parameters affect the dynamic response of high-speed railway bridges is crucial to selecting an efficient structural form. Despite existing numerous publications within this field, only few address the importance of torsional deformations. READ MORE

  5. 4. Finite Element Modelling and Parametric Studies of Semi-Closed Thin-Walled Steel Polygonal Columns - Application on Steel Lattice Towers for Wind Turbines

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

    Author : Bona Ryan; [2017]
    Keywords : Lattice tower; Thin-walled element; Semi-closed polygonal section; Finite element analysis; Parametric study; Buckling; Python script; Matlab script; Eurocode 3; Factorial design;

    Abstract : The trend of structural engineering in the recent years is toward the use of lighter and moreeconomical structural elements. In steel construction, peculiarly, thin-walled structural elements arebecoming more popular and have a growing importance. READ MORE
