  1. 1. Transverse cracking in cross-ply composites during static and fatigue loading at different temperatures

    Author : Vivek Richards Pakkam Gabriel; Patrik Fernberg; Mohamed Sahbi Loukil; Kristofer Gamstedt; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymer composite laminate; Static loading; Fatigue loading; Elevated temperature effect; Weibull distribution model; Polymeric Composite Materials; Polymera kompositmaterial;

    Abstract : Polymer composite laminates are preferred in many load bearing applications for its tailorable mechanical properties while offering light-weight solution, corrosive resistance etc. Hence, polymer composites are attractive material choice for aircraft manufacturers to reduce weight and emissions.

  2. 2. Analysis of transverse cracking in cross-ply laminates: Weibull distribution based approach

    Author : Vivek Richards Pakkam Gabriel; Patrik Fernberg; Mohamed Loukil; Spyros Tsampas; Erik Marklund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Intralmainar cracking; Weibull distribution; Failure stress; Monte Carlo simulation; Fatigue loading; Quasi-static loading; Polymera kompositmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

    Abstract : Fiber reinforced polymer composite laminates make up more than 50% of modern aircrafts. Such composite laminates are exposed to various environmental and in-service thermo-mechanical load conditions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Muscular forces from static optimization

    Author : Sofia Heintz; Anders Eriksson; Elena Gutierrez-Farewik; Anton Arndt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; movement analysis; muscle forces; static optimization; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : At every joint there is a redundant set of muscle activated during movement or loading of the system. Optimization techniques are needed to evaluate individual forces in every muscle. The objective in this thesis was to use static optimization techniques to calculate individual muscle forces in the human extremities. READ MORE

  4. 4. Static and time-dependent mechanical behaviour of preserved archaeological wood : Case studies of the seventeenth century warship Vasa

    Author : Alexey Vorobyev; Kristofer Gamstedt; Eiichi Obataya; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; archaeological wood; compression test; cubic samples; elastic constants; oak wood; barrelling formation; quasi-static loading; resonant ultrasound spectroscopy RUS ; Vasa ship; creep; 3D laser scanning; Time-dependent behaviour;

    Abstract : Wooden objects have been widely used in the history of humanity and play an important role in our cultural heritage. The preservation of such objects is of great importance and can be a challenging task. This thesis investigates the static and time-dependent mechanical behaviour of archaeological oak wood from the Vasa warship. READ MORE

  5. 5. Static and fatigue analyses of welded steel structures : some aspects towards lightweight design

    Author : Mansoor Khurshid; Zuheir Barsoum; Lars-Erik Lindgren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fatigue strength; welded joints; static strength; high strength steel; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Aerospace Engineering; Flyg- och rymdteknik;

    Abstract : The objectives of this thesis comprise of overcoming the challenges in designing lightweight welded structures such as material selection, choice of fatigue design methods, and increased performance by using improvement techniques. Material selection of welded joints is dependent on the filler and base material strengths. READ MORE
