  1. 1. Direct Calculation of Wave-Induced Loads and Fatigue Damage of Container Vessels

    Author : Zhiyuan Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fatigue; stress concentration factor; direct calculation; Container ship; fatigue routing; wave-induced torsion.; extreme loading; nonlinear wave loads;

    Abstract : Container ships and their rules for fatigue design are in several ways differentcompared with other types of commercial ships such as tankers and bulk carriers. Forexample, most modern container ships have a pronounced bow flare and an overhangstern. READ MORE

  2. 2. Transverse cracking in cross-ply composites during static and fatigue loading at different temperatures

    Author : Vivek Richards Pakkam Gabriel; Patrik Fernberg; Mohamed Sahbi Loukil; Kristofer Gamstedt; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymer composite laminate; Static loading; Fatigue loading; Elevated temperature effect; Weibull distribution model; Polymeric Composite Materials; Polymera kompositmaterial;

    Abstract : Polymer composite laminates are preferred in many load bearing applications for its tailorable mechanical properties while offering light-weight solution, corrosive resistance etc. Hence, polymer composites are attractive material choice for aircraft manufacturers to reduce weight and emissions.

  3. 3. Influences of temperature, fatigue and mixed mode loading on the cohesive properties of adhesive layers

    Author : Tomas Walander; Christian Berggreen; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; adhesive layer; cohesive law; fatigue; finite element analysis; fracture energy; mixed mode; multi-axial fatigue; potential model; temperature; Mechanics of Materials; Materialmekanik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns some aspects that have influence on the strength of adhesive layers. The strength is determined by the stress deformation-relation of the layer. This relation is also referred to as cohesive law. READ MORE

  4. 4. Fatigue Assessment of Cast Components : Influence of Cast Defects

    Author : Anders Björkblad; Jack Samuelsson; Gary Marquis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cast nodular iron; fatigue; design rules; fracture mechanics; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract :  This thesis is on the fatigue assessment of cast components with special attention to defects. The primary material in view is nodular cast iron, but also cast steel is considered. However, the fatigue behaviour is in principle valid for general use on other cast metals. READ MORE

  5. 5. Failure of thermal barrier coatings under thermal and mechanical fatigue loading : microstructural observations and modelling aspects

    Author : Håkan Brodin; Anette M. Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : thermal barrier coating; TBC; delamination; crack initiation; crack propagation; crack growth; oxidation; alumina; spinel; MCrAIY; diffusion; fatigue; modelling; modeling; degradation; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Industrial and air-borne gas turbine hot components suffer from creep, oxidation, corrosion and microstructural degradation if not shielded from the hot and aggressive combustion gases. Two major strategies commercially available are adopted; film cooling by pressurised air and application of protective coatings. READ MORE
