  1. 1. Modelling and Mechanical Analysis of Continuously Transposed Conductor

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Haicheng Hu; [2020]
    Keywords : CTC; modelling; finite element analysis; epoxy coating; compliance; torsional rigidity; CTC; modellering; FEM; epoxibeläggning; komplians; böjstyvhet; vridstyvhet;

    Abstract : As the CTC (transposed continuously conductor) is widely accepted as the cable used in transformers, mechanical analysis of CTC under different load cases is in need. This paper introduces a new method of creating detailed CTC models automatically in Comsol Multiphysics and the models are applied for conducting FEA (Finite Element Analysis) for different load cases of practical importance.

  3. 2. Torsional Stiffness Calculation of CFRP Hybrid Chassis using Finite Element Method : Development of calculation methodology of Formula Student CFRP Chassis

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Abb Assaye; [2020]
    Keywords : FEA; FEM; Formula Student; FSAE; Torsion; Torsional Stiffness; Torsional Rigidity;

    Abstract : Composite sandwich structures are being used in the automotive and aerospace industries at an increasing rate due to their high strength and stiffness per unit weight.  Many teams in the world’s largest engineering competition for students, Formula Student, have embraced these types of structures and are using them in their chassis with the intent of increasing the torsional stiffness per unit weight.

  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. Theoretical and numerical approach to calculate the shear stiffness of corrugated metal deck

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI); Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Ali Al-rubaye; [2014]
    Keywords : ABAQUS; applied load; ECCS; effective shear stiffness; SDI; shear fasteners; shear diaphragm; panel sheeting; PMDF; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Permanent Metal Deck Forms (PMDFs) currently are used in building application as a lateral beam bracing. In the bridge applications, PMDFs are frequently used to support the wet concrete of bridge decks during the construction phase, but they are not relied on as lateral bracing. READ MORE

  6. 5. Project Solaris – Construction of Solar Powered UAV Prototype

    University essay from Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Magnus Johansson; [2011]
    Keywords : Flight testing; empennage; solaris; differentiated thrust;

    Abstract : Abstract To control an un-swept flying wing is problematic in some ways. One of the problems is that when the wing experiences a disturbance in yaw, it does not, since it has no tail, generate any torque in the opposite direction as a plane with a vertical stabilizer does. READ MORE
