  1. 1. Elastoplasticity of Grey Cast Iron FE-Algorithms and Biaxial Experiments

    Author : Hans E. Hjelm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biaxial experiments; multiaxial elastoplastic behaviour; graphite flakes; FE-codes; hardening behaviour; graphitic grey cast iron;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on multiaxial elastoplastic behaviour of graphitic grey cast iron with the aim to provide physically appropriate and numerically reliable constitutive relations for use in FE-codes. To achieve this goal, this work is divided into three parts: Biaxial experiments are performed on thin cruciform specimens. READ MORE

  2. 2. Robust Preconditioners Based on the Finite Element Framework

    Author : Erik Bängtsson; Maya Neytcheva; Per Lötstedt; Svetozar Margenov; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; FEM; iterative solution method; algebraic multilevel preconditioner; sparse approximate inverse; block preconditioner; Schur complement approximation; nonsymmetric saddle point matrix; isostatic glacial adjustment; pre-stress advection; elasticity; viscoelasticity; in compressible solid; ABAQUS; BEM DDM; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Robust preconditioners on block-triangular and block-factorized form for three types of linear systems of two-by-two block form are studied in this thesis. The first type of linear systems, which are dense, arise from a boundary element type of discretization of crack propagation problems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Anisotropy and non-linear effects in SMC composites : from material data to FE-simulation of structures

    Author : Magnus Oldenbo; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

    Abstract : In the design of composite structures for the automotive industry it is vital to have good tools because development time is very critical. Normally simulation of mechanical properties of sheet moulding compound (SMC) composite structures is stiffness based and limited to isotropic material model. READ MORE

  4. 4. Parametric FE-modelling of non-linear racking behaviour of light-frame shear walls and modules used for multi-storey timber buildings

    Author : Le Kuai; Sigurdur Ormarsson; Johan Vessby; Marie Johansson; Kay-Uwe Schober; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Abstract : Wood is a sustainable material from nature that has a longstanding traditionas a building material. Compared to other construction materials, such as steeland concrete, the significance of using structural timber and engineered wood products has increased in recent years because they are regarded as a renewable source and require a low carbon footprint and less energy consumption during production.

  5. 5. A Damage-Based Interface Model: Application to the Degradation and Failure of a Polycrystalline Microstructure

    Author : Patrik Cannmo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; damage; polycrystalline microstructure; degradation; slip and dilatation; interfaces; FE-calculations; viscoplasticity; plasticity; failure;

    Abstract : A constitutive model for material interfaces is presented. The model is based on damage coupled to plastic (or viscoplastic) slip and dilatation, and it is able to describe the successive degradation and failure of an interface. READ MORE
