  2. 1. On the Experimental Determination of Damping of Metals and Calculation of Thermal Stresses in Solidifying Shells

    Author : Jonas Åberg; Hasse Fredriksson; Björn Widell; Michael Vynnycky; Toshihiko Emi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; material damping; measurement methods; calorimetric methods; optical strain gauge measurements; hot cracking; stress in solid shells; ALE; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis explores experimentally and theoretically two different aspects of the properties and behaviour of metals: their ability to damp noise and their susceptibility to crack when solidifying. The first part concerns intrinsic material damping, and is motivated by increased demands from society for reductions in noise emissions. READ MORE

  4. 2. On Postbuckling Analysis of Thin-walled Structures Numerical and Statistical Approaches

    Author : Mats Ander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; postbuckling; hierarchical elements; imperfection sensitivity; displacement gradients; total Lagrange formulation; geometrically non-linear structures;

    Abstract : Thin-walled structural elements, such as plates, shells and beams are important load carrying components in civil-, mechanical-, automotive- aeronautical- and marine engineering structures. In order to reduce the weight thin-walled structures are given an optimum design making them sensitive to unforeseen deviations in geometry, boundary conditions, material properties and applied loads.

  5. 3. Continuum Mechanics Modelling of Corrugated Board

    Author : Ulf Nyman; Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Material technology; assumed natural strain shell; failure criterion; lifetime; reliability; moisture transport; sorption hysteresis; corrugated board; hygro-elasticity; Materiallära; materialteknik;

    Abstract : The storage of compressive loaded boxes in an environment with naturally varying humidity is a practical issue in corrugated board employment. Time dependent variables such as moisture content, strain fields, stress fields and material strength play important roles for the time to failure. READ MORE
