  1. 31. Applications of Finite Element Simulation and Mixed Reality in Architecture and Built Environment

    Author : Carl Lundholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; augmented reality; FEniCS; multimesh; CutFEM; multi-objective optimization; mixed reality; HoloLens; virtual reality; view computation; finite element method;

    Abstract : This thesis presents applications in architecture and built environment that are based on the finite element method and mixed reality. The work consists of two main components: two projects presented in three papers. The first project (presented in Paper I) concerns an application in urban design, thus built environment on a larger scale. READ MORE

  2. 32. Cut Finite Element Methods on Overlapping Meshes: Analysis and Applications

    Author : Carl Lundholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; parabolic problem; multi-objective optimization; multi-mesh; energy analysis; CutFEM; augmented reality; overlapping meshes; moving meshes;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with both analysis and applications of cut finite element methods (CutFEMs) on overlapping meshes. By overlapping meshes we mean a mesh hierarchy with a background mesh at the bottom and one or more overlapping meshes that are stacked on top of it. READ MORE

  3. 33. Addressing the complexity of sustainability-driven structural design: Computational design, optimization, and decision making

    Author : Alexandre Mathern; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    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; integrated design; concrete structure; parametric design; structural engineering; finite element analysis; life cycle sustainability assessment; bridge; construction; civil engineering; multi-objective design optimization; wind turbine foundation;

    Abstract : Being one of the sectors with the largest environmental burden and high socio-economic impacts sets high requirements on the construction industry. At the same time, this provides the sector with great opportunities to contribute to the globally pursued sustainability transition. READ MORE

  4. 34. Optimal Estimation of Grain Orientation in an Anisotropic Weld by Ultrasonic Techniques

    Author : Qingwei Liu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; anisotropic weld model; multi-objective genetic algorithm; nonlinear optimization; ultrasonic probe model; 2D ray tracing;

    Abstract : Grain orientation in an anisotropic weld highly influences ultrasound paths and thus is a significant parameter when making simulations of ultrasonic testing of anisotropic welds. Though each weld is thought to be unique in its structure, the common procedure in modeling is to prescribe the grain orientation in a weld based on limited experience. READ MORE

  5. 35. Slab Frame Bridges : Structural Optimization Considering Investment Cost and Environmental Impacts

    Author : Majid Solat Yavari; Costin Pacoste-Calmanovici; Raid Karoumi; Mario Plos; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Slab frame bridge; Structural design; Cost optimization; Optimization of environmental impact; Life cycle assessment; Genetic algorithm; Pattern search method; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : This research encompasses the automated design and structural optimization of reinforced concrete slab frame bridges, considering investment costs and environmental impacts. The most important feature of this work is that it focusses on realistic and complete models of slab frame bridges rather than on optimization of only individual members or sections of a bridge.
