  1. 1. On crack growth in functionally graded materials

    Author : Andrey P. Jivkov; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Stress intensity factors' behaviour is studied for long plane cracks interacting with a region of functionally graded elastic material. The region is assumed embedded into a large body treated as a homogeneous elastic continuum. READ MORE

  2. 2. Dynamic higher order equations

    Author : Hossein Abadikhah; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Torsion; Series expansion; Elasticity; Micropolar; Functionally graded material;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis is to derive and evaluate governing equations and correspondingboundary conditions for solid cylinders and rectangular plates, where the materialconstituting the cylinder or plate are governed by classical elasticity, micropolar elasticityor a functionally graded case of the previously mentioned models. This is achieved by asystematic power series expansion approach, by either adopting a generalized Hamilton'sprinciple or a direct approach. READ MORE

  3. 3. Tailoring structure and morphology during additive manufacturing of metallic components

    Author : Jithin James Marattukalam; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Ulf Jansson; Martin Sahlberg; Lars Nyborg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Selective laser melting; process parameters; scanning methodologies; AMLOYZR01; bulk metallic glass; 316L SS; grain orientation;

    Abstract : The work described in this thesis explores the use of laser process parameters to functionalize the material properties by the control of microstructure and optimization of morphology in components by selective laser melting. The microstructure in amorphous and crystalline metallic alloy systems is influenced by changing the laser power density and scanning strategies respectively. READ MORE

  4. 4. Design for 3D Concrete Printing : Optimisation Through Integrated Workflows

    Author : Jose Hernández Vargas; Johan Silfwerbrand; Helena Westerlind; Roberto Naboni; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 3D concrete printing; digital fabrication; concrete structures; additive manufacturing; robotic fabrication; design for manufacturing; structural optimisation; functionally graded concrete; topology optimisation.; 3D-betongutskrift; digital tillverkning; betongkonstruktioner; additiv tillverkning; robotstyrd tillverkning; design för tillverkning; strukturell optimering; funktionellt graderad betong; topologioptimering.; Betongbyggnad; Concrete Structures;

    Abstract : The transition from conventional cast concrete to 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) marks a paradigm shift by directly depositing fresh concrete layer upon layer according to a digital model without the need for a formwork. This technology offers the possibility of achieving innovative and complex geometries in an automated process. READ MORE

  5. 5. Development of Composition Gradients in Cemented Carbides

    Author : Robert Frykholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; EPMA; DICTRA; functionally graded materials; gradient sintering; diffusion; APFIM; thermodynamic modelling; SEM; surface zones;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the formation of tough surface zones, depleted of cubic carbo-nitrides, in cemented carbides. Several materials with varied phase compositions, binder phase volume fraction, and carbon content have been investigated. READ MORE
