  1. 1. Validation of Finite Element Model of a Tetra Pak Package

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Warsame Mohamed Ali; Abdullahi Abdi Hashi; [2023]
    Keywords : Abaqus; HDPE; Package testing; Validation; Abaqus; HDPE; Pakettestning; Validering;

    Abstract : There is a high dependency on accurate finite element models in the packaging industry for concept selection, design and virtual validation of packages. One of themost used materials for these packages is High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE). Thismaterial is highly anisotropic, strain rate dependent and has different behavior intension and compression.

  3. 2. Experimental Testing of EPS-foam

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Carl Göransson; Erik Arnald; [2023]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; EPS; Experimental testing; Hållfasthetslära; EPS; Experimentell testning;

    Abstract : The aim of this master thesis was to investigate the mechanical properties of ExpandedPolystyrene (EPS) through experimental testing. The strain was measured on thespecimen’s surface with Digital Image Correlation (DIC), in order to investigate howthe first principal strain at fracture initiation depends on the loading of the material.

  4. 3. Modelling and simulation of vibratory driven sheet piles - Development of a stop criterion

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

    Author : Johannes Jonsson; Anton Andersson; [2021]
    Keywords : Vibratory driving; sheet pile; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : During excavations, steel sheet piles are often installed through vibratory driving, to establish a retaining wall that resists soil instability and ground water leakage. The method of vibratory driving is that the sheet pile is driven into the soil with a vertical vibratory motion. This is especially effective in soft soils. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modelling and Evaluation of the Methods for Compression Testing of Thermoplastics

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Abdul Rahman Itani; [2021]
    Keywords : hermoplastics; polyamide 6; yield criteria; uniaxial stress; compression test; triaxiality; Mohr’s Circle; Lode Parameter; LS-DYNA; ermoplaster; polyamid 6; flyttspänningskriterier; enaxlig spänning; kompressionsprov; triaxialitet; Mohrs Cirkel; Lode Parameter; LS-DYNA;

    Abstract : The application of thermoplastics as load-carrying components in furniture applications is an attractive prospect at IKEA. Thermoplastics can be used instead of metal where advanced geometries and aesthetics are considered. READ MORE

  6. 5. Greenhouse gas emissions from compacted peat soil

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Antonia Hartmann; [2021]
    Keywords : carbon dioxide; compression index; Peatland agriculture; recompression index; sand addition; soil compaction;

    Abstract : Cultivated peat soils are a main driver for CO2 and N2O emissions, while the gas fluxes are dependent on intrinsic soil properties and land use. Sand addition into peat soils might reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and enhance soil strength, and thus the ability to tolerate soil compaction. READ MORE
