1. Load-Carrying Capacity of Steel Girders and Panels with Thin-Walled Trapezoidally Corrugated Webs
Abstract : This thesis concerns the load-carrying capacity of steel girders and panels with thin-walled trapezoidally corrugated webs. Computer-based numerical methods are used as a tool and emphasis is placed on various parametric studies, covering geometric parameters, initial imperfections, material strain-hardening models, loading types and loading positions, and so forth.

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

3. Climate Related Thermal Actions for Reliable Design of Concrete Structures
Abstract : When the temperature changes in the environment the temperature will also change in a structure. Complex interactions of climate factors affect the temperature changes. When the temperature is varied in a material it will expand or contract, and movements will be produced. READ MORE

4. Patch loading : resistance of longitudinally stiffened steel girder webs
Abstract : In most cases, longitudinal stiffeners increase the resistance of steel girder webs subjected to concentrated forces, commonly referred to as patch loading. During the last three decades, a number of experimental investigations have been undertaken in all over the world in this regard. READ MORE

5. Shear and Torsion in Concrete Structures Non-linear Finte Element Analysis in Design and Assessment
Abstract : For structural design and assessment of reinforced concrete members, non-linear finite element analysis has become an important tool. However, design and assessment of shear and torsion are still done with simplified analytical or empirical design methods. READ MORE
