  2. 6. Evaluation of Innovative Rehabilitation Technologies Utilising Polymer Composites for Aging Sewer Systems

    Author : Parastou Kharazmi; Folke Björk; Tord af Klintberg; Tor Broström; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Abstract : Water and wastewater sewer system maintenance is among the costliest aspects of infrastructure investment. The replacement of deteriorated lines is a difficult and expensive process that causes community disturbance and is generally not conducted fast enough to meet demand. READ MORE

  4. 7. An investigation into some aspects for foamed bitumen technology

    Author : May Namutebi; Björn Birgisson; Alvaro Guarin; Umaru Bagampadde; Baoshan Huang; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Foamed bitumen; Binder ageing; Aggregate coating; Compaction; Mix design; Aggregate porosity; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Abstract : Despite applications of foamed bitumen technology in pavement construction in various places around the world, there are still several aspects about this technology that are not clear. In addition, knowledge on foamed bitumen technology is mainly empirical and lacks scientific basis. READ MORE

  5. 8. An Experimental Study to Measure And Improve the Grout Penetrability

    Author : Ali Nejad Ghafar; Stefan Larsson; Almir Draganovic; Ulf Erik Lindblom; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Penetrability; Filtration; Erosion; Cement-based grout; Grout spread; Grout penetrability measurement; Dynamic grouting; Instantaneous variable pressure; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : An essential demand in any underground facility is to seal it against the water ingress to reduce the time and cost of the construction and the corresponding environmental hazards. To achieve this, obtaining sufficient grout spread is of great importance. READ MORE

  6. 9. CFD MODELLING AND EXPERIMENTS ON AERATOR FLOW IN CHUTE SPILLWAYS

    Author : Penghua Teng; James Yang; Anders Wörman; Anton Schleiss; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Spillway Aerator; Cavitation; Air Entrainment; Two-phase Flow; VOF; Mixture Model; Two-Fluid Model; Air Cavity; Cavity Air Pressure; Air Concentration; Shadowgraphic Image Method SIM ; High-speed Particle Image Velocimetry HSPIV ; Bubble Tracking Method BTM ; luftningsramp; kavitation; luftinträngning; tvåfasflöde; VOF; Mixture Model; Two-Fluid Model; luftkavitet; kavitetslufttryck; luftkoncentration; skuggrafisk bildmetod; hastighetsmätning med höghastighetspartikelfotografering; bubbelspårningsmetod; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : A chute spillway is a typical component of large dams for discharging floods. Because of the high water head, the flow velocity in the chute is often in excess of 20 m/s. Consequently, the structure is usually prone to cavitation damages. Flow aeration is evidenced to efficiently eliminate or to mitigate the damages. READ MORE

  7. 10. Simulation of historic buildings for enhancement of preservation and energy performance – issues and methods

    Author : Torun Widström; Folke Björk; Kjartan Gudmundsson; Jesper Arfvidsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building simulation; historic buildings; energy performance; damage risk; mould; thermal bridges; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : Historic buildings are often particularly poorly insulated and difficult to heat, and are also at risk for several reasons. These include potential lack of use due to low thermal comfort leading to low or no profitability, damage risks due to over and under-climatization and risks due to climate change altering the boundary conditions that they were built for.
