  1. 6. Stability analysis and modelling of a structure with corrugated roof

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

    Author : Nikola Tosovic; [2020]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Corrugated galvanized iron (CGI), or corrugated sheet metal, is a lightweight roofing material that was invented in the early 1800s. The corrugation gives the steel an increased flexural strength in its installed direction and thus increases the amount of load the CGI-plate is able to carry and the span it can be effective at.

  3. 7. Design of wind turbine blades with respect to stability

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik

    Author : Oskar Lindkvist; Victor Nicolausson; [2019]
    Keywords : FEM; Buckling; Stability; Wind turbine blades; Steel.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the 21st century, wind power has emerged as a strong candidate in fulfilling societies goals of achieving carbon-free energy energy production. Windpower has evolved along with other technological developments, giving rise to larger turbines, but with the overall design trend remaining largely unchanged. READ MORE

  4. 8. Experimental study on innovative connections for large span structural timber trusses

    University essay from KTH/Byggnadsmaterial

    Author : Petter Werner Åström; [2019]
    Keywords : Timber structure; timber joint; large span trusses; experimental study; structural timber; birch plywood; reinforcement screws;

    Abstract : Large span timber trusses are usually built with glulam. One problem with large span glulam trusses is that the connections needed to transfer the load between truss members are often complex and expensive. Another issue is transportation. READ MORE

  5. 9. Hybrid testing procedure development : An experimental study a hybrid simulation of a steel truss element

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Ali Alhameedi; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hybrid simulation is a numerical and experimental structural testing technique in which the critical structural members are tested experimentally, while the rest of the structure is modeled numerically. During hybrid testing, the numerical model is updated continuously based on the output of the experimental test. READ MORE

  6. 10. De Oförutsedda Alliansernas Teater

    University essay from KTH/Arkitektur

    Author : Mimmi Gustafsson; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Statue of Liberty might seem likea complicated woman at first glance.But her metallic, sculptural shell issupported by a quite conventional truss-system on the inside.   This “unforeseen affiliation” of buildingelements is a marriage between theorthogonal and the curved, the structuraland the artistic.
