1. Mechanics of Cross-Laminated Timber
Abstract : Increasing awareness of sustainable building materials has led to interest in enhancing the structural performance of engineered wood products. Wood is a sustainable, renewable material, and the increasing use of wood in construction contributes to its sustainability. READ MORE

2. Digital stereomicroscopy for measurements of deformations, velocity fields and microstructural changes of paper
Abstract : There is a strongly increasing request of measuring systems for mechanical properties studies, for example in the paper industry. Paper research is today not only concentrated to flock studies, weight and quality controls of the paper but also focussing of mechanical behaviours in the fibre scale. READ MORE

3. Towards energy-based fracture modelling for crashworthiness applications
Abstract : The automotive industry is currently adapting to progessively more stringent emission and safety regulations imposed by governmental agencies. This introduces significant design difficulties due to the conflicting nature of passenger safety in automotive manufacturing, namely that increased crashworthiness generally leads to heavier vehicles, which in turn leads to more severe crashes.

4. Modelling and characterisation of fracture properties of advanced high strength steels
Abstract : Growing demands for passenger safety, vehicle performance and fueleconomy is a continuous driving force for the increase in use of advancedhigh strength steels (AHSS) in the automotive industry. Thesesteels area characterised by improved formability and crash worthinesscompared to conventional steel grades. READ MORE

5. Study and characterization of localization and failure behaviour of ultra high strength steel
Abstract : In the vehicle industry there is a constant struggle to develop cars with high passive safety without increasing the fuel consumption. High passive safety requires a very rigid behaviour of the crash protecting components. Accomplishing this often leads to an increase in the weight of the components. READ MORE
