1. Heterogeneous Bonded Particle Modelling of Rock Fracture
Abstract : The dynamic fracture process of rock materials is of importance for several industries, such as the rock drilling process in geothermal and mining applications. Gaining knowledge and understanding of dynamic rock fracture through numerical simulations can enhance the rock drilling process, for example by optimising the drill bit geometry and drilling parameters.

2. On the hot crack formation during solidification of iron-base alloys
Abstract : Hot cracking during solidification is a severe problem inmany casting processes, for example in continuous casting.Combinations of low strength and low ductility of the materialat high temperatures and applied tensile stress can cause hotcracking. READ MORE

3. Fracture mechanics and tribology of rock and rock joints
Abstract : In the first part of the thesis fracture toughness tests of rocks are described. Specimens of Stripa Granite have been tested in three point bending, compact tension and short rod tension. READ MORE

4. Interaction between shotcrete and rock : experimental and numerical study
Abstract : At LKAB’s underground mines in Malmberget and Kiruna in northern Sweden shotcrete and rock bolts are the main rock support elements. A safe working environment for the miners and high accessibility to the mine are important issues. READ MORE

5. Deformation and failure of rock
Abstract : In this doctoral thesis work the relationship between the deformation and the initiation of failure around an underground excavation was studied. In this work data from observed failure and measured deformations was used. This work is based on information obtained from laboratory test, underground field cases and numerical analysis. READ MORE
