  2. 1. Managing uncertainties in geotechnical parameters : From the perspective of Eurocode 7

    Author : Anders Prästings; Stefan Larsson; Johan Spross; Rasmus Müller; Kok-Kwang Phoon; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Eurocode 7; Characteristic value; Partial-factor method; Reliability-based design; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : Geotechnical engineering is strongly associated with large uncertainties. Geotechnical site investigations are made only at discrete points and most of a soil volume is never tested. A major issue is therefore how to cost effectively reduce geotechnical uncertainties with respect to structural performance. READ MORE

  4. 2. Adsorption of pinosylvin onto the structure of wood : mechanism and adsorption parameters

    Author : Ildiko Mohammedne Ziegler; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry of Interfaces; Gränsytors kemi;

    Abstract : Pinosylvin and polyhydroxybenzene derivatives are natural components of wood, known for their fungicidal/fungistatic properties. These components were used as adsorbates in the present investigation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Energy performance of multifamily buildings : building characteristic and user influence

    Author : Jan-Ulric Sjögren; Thomas Olofsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy performance; total heat loss coefficient; gain factor; benchmarking; parameter influence; multivariate method; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : Today many professional property holders use different types of software for monthly energy analyses. The data is however often limited to energy and water use, that is paid for by the property holder. In year 2001, financed by the Swedish Energy Agency, the first steps were taken to create a national web based data base, eNyckeln. READ MORE

  6. 4. Torque and Angle Controlled Tightening of Bolted Joints

    Author : Göran Toth; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; torque controlled tightening; deformation parameters; momentary elongation; deformation factor; torque; Bolted screwed joints; spring characteristic; Torx; torque and angle controlled tightening; hexalobular; final torque; snug torque; Taylor’s series expansions; preload; plastic deformation; permanent elongation; yield; friction diameter; plastic spring constant; clevis; turn-of-nut method; bearing surface pressure; twisting; Monte-Carlo simulations;

    Abstract : Reduced weight and fuel consumption, improved reliability and engine performance are the main requirements in the automotive industry of today. These requirements demand robust and optimized bolted joints, where a high amount of preload obtained by effective utilisation of the bolt is essential. READ MORE

  7. 5. Multi-Scale Surface Water-Groundwater Interaction : Implications for GroundwaterDischarge Patterns

    Author : Babak Brian Mojarrad; Anders Wörman; Joakim Riml; Jan Fleckenstein; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; groundwater flow; hyporheic zone; multi-scale modeling; spectral analysis; fragmentation of discharge zones; characteristic parameters; Hydraulik och teknisk hydrologi; Hydraulic and Hydrologic Engineering;

    Abstract : Rivers and aquifers are continuously exchanging water, driven by processes that occur on various temporal and spatial scales, ranging from small streambed features to large geological structures. The interaction between these two components occurs in permeable sediments below the stream channel, called the hyporheic zone. READ MORE
