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

2. Condition measuring and lifetime modelling of disconnectors, circuit breakers and other electrical power transmission equipment
Abstract : The supply of electricity is important in modern society, so the outages of the electric grid should be few and short, especially for the transmission grid. A summary of the history of the Swedish electrical system is presented. The objective is to be able to plan the maintenance better by following the condition of the equipment. READ MORE

3. Modelling the Variability of Bending Strength in Structural Timber - Length and Load Configuration Effects
Abstract : The load carrying capacity of a beam of structural timber is dependent both on the span of the beam and the type of loading. The longer the beam and the more uniform the moment distribution, the lower the load carrying capacity. This phenomenon is due to the variability of material properties within a piece of timber.

4. Annealed Glass Failure Modelling : A Weakest-Link Approach with Statistical Analysis
Abstract : Novel and increased use of glass in building construction has been made possible, as a result of methods of mass production introduced during the 20th century and advanced computational structural analyses. With modern use of glass structures, a range of demands emerge which need to be addressed in the strength design process. READ MORE

5. Testing and estimation in labour supply and duration models
Abstract : Estimation and testing in labour supply and unemployment duration models are studied. In the first two papers estimation techniques designed to account for quantity constraints and perceived tax scales are developed, while the remaining three papers focus on specification tests. READ MORE
