  2. 1. Microclimate measurements in the built environment

    Author : Peter Norberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Surface moisture plays an important role in thedeterioration of building surfaces. The extent and duration ofsurface moisture is generally impossible to predictfrommeteorological data and consequently direct measurement ofthis quantity is essential,e.g. using the WETCORR method.

  4. 2. Dual Scale Porosity and Interlaminar Properties of Composite Materials

    Author : Mohammad Waseem Tahir; Maline Åkermo; Stefan Hallström; Staffan Lundström; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : In the strive towards reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions, low structural weight is becoming a key factor in the design of advanced vehicle and aerospace structures. Whereas most traditional construction materials are seemingly reaching their limitations, composite materials with their high specific properties offer possibilities to further reduce weight.

  5. 3. Stiffness characterization in Non-Crimp Fabric Composites

    Author : Hana Zrida; Spyros Tsampas; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

    Abstract : Lightweight materials with high stiffness and damage tolerance are requested for aerospace, marine and automotive industries. Many types of composite materials are today used in various types of load carrying structures, due to their excellent strength and stiffness to weight ratio. READ MORE

  6. 4. Physically Based Engineering Models for NCF Composites

    Author : Fredrik Edgren; Dan Zenkert; Michael WIsnom; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Non-Crimp Fabrics - NCF – are increasingly being used as reinforcements in high performance composite materials. NCF offer the manufacturing advantages from textile preforms in combination with excellent mechanical performance. This study concerns the mechanical performance of NCF composites. READ MORE
