  1. 1. Structural Earthquake Response Analysis

    Author : Hamid Movaffaghi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finite element method; Earthquake excitation; global and local optimization; viscoelastic passive dampers; stochastic simulation; structural earthquake response analysis;

    Abstract : AbstractEarthquakes are one of the most dangerous natural phenomena causing damage to buildings and other structures as well as injury and death of people. These destructive processes can never be prevented to happen, but their impact on the structures can be minimized. READ MORE

    Abstract : Aquatic organisms are constantly at risk of being exposed to potentially harmful chemical compounds of natural or anthropogenic origin. Biological life can for instance respond to chemical stressors by changes in gene expression, and thus, certain gene transcripts can potentially function as biomarkers, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 4. Community Robustness Analysis : Theoretical Approaches to Identifying Keystone Structures in Ecological Communities

    Author : Sofia Berg; Tomas Jonsson; Bo Ebenman; Daniel Stouffer; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Most of the world’s ecosystems suffer from stress caused by human activities such as habitat destruction, fragmentation, overexploitation of species and climate change. These factors affect the reproduction and/or survival of individual species as well as interactions between species in ecological communities. READ MORE

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustic fatigue; Sonic fatigue; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Large Eddy Simulation; Finite Element Method; Random response analysis; Separated flow; High Re; Backward-facing step; Fence flow; Aircraft; Proper Orthogonal Decomposition; Acoustic fatigue; Sonic fatigue; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Large Eddy Simulation; Finite Element Method; Random response analysis; Separated flow; High Re; Backward-facing step; Fence flow; Aircraft; Proper Orthogonal Decomposition;

    Abstract : Acoustic fatigue can occur in structural elements of an aircraft exposed to very high sound pressures. To deal with acoustic fatigue, mainly empirical methods have been applied and often late in the design phase. Current design guidelines have three main limitations. First, they do not say anything about the load intensities. READ MORE
