  1. 1. Multiscale mechanical modeling of paperboard

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

    Author : Gustav Boman; [2022]
    Keywords : Paperboard; micromechanics; multiscale; fiber; X-ray; RVE; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis considers an investigation into the possibilities of creating a reasonably accurate multiscale material model for paperboard, with geometry based on X-ray scans of small paperboard samples. The modeling takes place in the software Multiscale Designer by Altair Engineering Inc. READ MORE

  3. 2. Simmulating pullout forces in particleboard

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : Tapiwanashe Phiri; Niklas Björkman; [2019]
    Keywords : transversely isotropic material; orthotropic material; particleboard; finite element analysis; material model;

    Abstract : Pull-out forces of screws and connectors in particleboard are particularly important when designing for strength and, or assembly in the furniture industry. The aim of this thesis was to develop a simulation model of particleboard that can predict pull-out forces of screws better than the currently used simulation model at IKEA of Sweden. READ MORE

  4. 3. Mechanical performance of 3D printed objects - Model and simulation of the material properties of selective laser sintered PA12 objects

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära (Avd.)

    Author : Anders Lindberg; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing is a technique allowing the building of complex geometries in a layerby-layer approach. These layers lead to an anisotropic material behaviour. In this report a material description for selective laser sintered (SLS) PA12, which is a common 3D-printing plastic, is investigated. READ MORE

  5. 4. Topology Optimization for Additive Manufacturing Considering Stress and Anisotropy

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : Henrik Alm Grundström; [2017]
    Keywords : Topology Optimization; Stress Constraints; Additive Manufacturing; Anisotropic Material Proporties;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) is a particularly useful manufacturing method for components designed using topology optimization (TO) since it allows for a greater part complexity than any traditional manufacturing method. However, the AM process potentially leads to anisotropic material properties due to the layer-by-layer buildup of parts and the fast and directional cooling. READ MORE
