  1. 1. Natural corrosion in reinforced concrete structures

    Author : Samanta Robuschi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Natural corrosion; pitting corrosion; reinforced concrete structures; chloride-induced corrosion.; neutron imaging; anchorage; plain bars; X-rays CT;

    Abstract : Among the threats to the durability of concrete structures, corrosion of the reinforcement bars is undoubtedly the most common one. Corrosion damages impair safety and durability of infrastructure, and assessment of the safety is challenging due to the complex nature of the corrosion process. READ MORE

  2. 2. Novel approaches for monitoring effects of steel corrosion in reinforced concrete

    Author : Andreas Alhede; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reinforced Concrete; Neutron and X-ray Computed Tomography; Corrosion; Distributed Optical Strain Sensing;

    Abstract : Corrosion of steel reinforcement is a common deterioration mechanism in reinforced concrete structures. This deterioration impacts the safety of the structure and may require extensive repair and maintenance work. There is currently no method available for accurately measuring internal corrosion damage non-destructively. READ MORE

  3. 3. Analysis methodology for RBMK-1500 core safety and investigations on corium coolabiblty during a LWR sever accidnet

    Author : Audrius Jasiulevicius; KTH; []
    Keywords : RBMK. Light water reactor. Core analysis; transient analysis; reactor dynamics;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the work involving two broad aspectswithin the field of nuclear reactor analysis and safety. Theseare: - development of a fully independent reactor dynamics andsafety analysis methodology of the RBMK-1500 core transientaccidents and - experiments on the enhancement of coolabilityof a particulate bed or a melt pool due to heat removal throughthe control rod guide tubes.
