1. A Framework for optimised welding of fatigue loaded structures : Applied to gas metal arc welding of fillet welds
Abstract : Welding is a key process for heavy steel structures, but it is also a weak link in the structure since fatigue fractures in welds are a common cause of failure. This thesis proposes several changes in order to improve the fatigue properties in acost effective way, enabling reduced weight and reduced cost of welded structures. READ MORE

2. Analysis of geometrically modified adhesive joints in steel beams strengthened with composite laminates
Abstract : The use of bonded FRP laminates to strengthen and upgrade existing structures has attracted a great deal of attention during the past two decades. The attractiveness of this method is mainly due to the superior material properties of FRP laminates such as high strength and stiffness, as well as advantages associated with the bonding technique, such as ease of application and good fatigue performance.

3. Behaviour and design of adhesive joints in flexural steel members bonded with FRP laminates
Abstract : The use of bonded CFRP laminates to strengthen and upgrade existing structures has attracted a great deal of attention during the past two decades. The superior mechanical properties of CFRP laminates, such as high strength and stiffness, excellent fatigue properties and good durability characteristics, have made them a suitable alternative to steel plates used in traditional strengthening and repair methods.

4. Welding of Heavy Structures Subjected to Fatigue
Abstract : Welding is a key process for heavy steel structures, but it is also a weak link of the structure since fatigue fractures in welds are a common cause for failures. This thesis proposes several changes in order to improve the fatigue properties in a cost effective way. READ MORE

5. Aerodynamic Investigations of a High Pressure Turbine Vane with Leading Edge Contouring at Endwall in a Transonic Annular Sector Cascade
Abstract : Efficiency improvement is an important aspect to reduce the use of fossil-based fuel in order to achieve a sustainable future. Gas turbines are mainly fossil-fuel based turbomachines, and, therefore, efficiency improvement is still the subject of many on-going research activities in the gas turbine community. READ MORE
