  2. 1. Lifetime modeling and management of transformers

    Author : Johanna Rosenlind; Rajeev Thottappillill; Zhong Dong Wang; KTH; []
    Keywords : transformers; lifetime modeling; asset management; thermal modeling; lifetime estimation;

    Abstract : This work have studied and developed lifetime estimation methods for the power transformer and how these could be used for asset management purposes. It is researchperformed in the intersection of the fields of reliability theory, statistical analysis, and stochastic process theory applied to lifetime estimations and management of transformers.

  4. 2. I-girder Composite Bridges with Lateral Bracing : Improved load distribution

    Author : Victor Vestman; Peter Collin; Robert Hällmark; Hans Petursson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; assessment; bridge; composite bridge; steel-concrete composite; I-girder; case study; horizontal trusses; lateral bracing; rehabilitation; strengthening; torsional stiffness; upgrading; Byggkonstruktion; Structural Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the subject of lateral bracing between the bottom flanges of I-girder composite bridges. The focus is on the impact of adding lateral bracing on existing bridges, as well as on new bridges. READ MORE

  5. 3. Aspects of historical data and health criteria for drinking water network replacement strategies

    Author : Annika Malm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pipe rehabilitation; water distribution network; cost-benefit analysis; Pipe replacement; leakage control; lifetime distribution; pipe failure; health risk; strategic planning; asset management;

    Abstract : The drinking water distribution network represents a major proportion of the investments and capital assets of a water utility. Consequently, qualified insight into future replacement needs provides water utilities with a foundation for financial planning. READ MORE

  6. 4. Condition measuring and lifetime modelling of disconnectors, circuit breakers and other electrical power transmission equipment

    Author : Per Westerlund; Patrik Hilber; Tommie Lindquist; William Q Meeker; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; reliability; maintenance; condition monitoring; disconnector; circuit breaker; Weibull distribution; prediction; risk analysis; decision making; beta distribution; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    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

  7. 5. Lifetime Performance Assessment of Thermal Systems : Studies on Building, Solar and Disctrict Heating Applications

    Author : Bojan Stojanovic; Christer Sjöström; Per Jostein Hovde; KTH; []
