1. Composite Bridges : Innovative ways of achieving composite action
Abstract : The topic of this thesis is steel-concrete composite bridges and innovative ways of achieving composite action. The typical superstructure consists of three main components: the steel girders, the concrete deck slab and the shear connectors. READ MORE

2. Dynamic fail-safe behaviour of steel structures
Abstract : The fundamental behaviour and the capacity of steel structures subjected to loss of interior load-bearing elements are studied. The ultimate load-bearing and deformation capacity of certain beam-to-column connections and the dynamic fail-safe behaviour of some ordinary steel structures are investigated in detail. READ MORE

3. Laser-welded corrugated core steel sandwich panels for bridge application
Abstract : The design of steel bridge decks has remained unchanged since the introduction of orthotropic decks. Orthotropic decks are expensive to produce, mainly due to high labor-costs. READ MORE

4. High temperature tribology of high strength boron steel and tool steels
Abstract : There are many tribological interfaces that are exposed to elevated temperatures. Typical examples are the interfaces of various moving assemblies, for examples in aerospace industry, power generation and metalworking processes. READ MORE

5. Simplified mechanical models for the nonlinear dynamic analysis of elasto-plastic steel structures impacted by a rigid body
Abstract : Buildings subjected to impact and explosion are usually studied using large scale and highly nonlinear finite element model which are time-consuming. The first part of the thesis deals with the development of simple and accurate models for evaluating the nonlinear inelastic behaviour of steel frame structures subjected to impact. READ MORE
