6. Out-of-Round Railway Wheels - Causes and Consequences An Investigation Including Field Tests, Out-of-Roundness Measurements and Numerical Simulations
Abstract : Causes and consequences of out-of-round railway wheels are investigated through literature studies, full-scale field experiments, out-of-roundness measurements, and numerical simulations. Both defects around the complete wheel circumference (e.g. polygonal wheels with wavelengths up to one wheel circumference) and local defects (e. READ MORE

7. Towards understanding breakage and flow in sublevel caving (SLC) : Development of new measurement techniques and results from full-scale tests
Abstract : Blast function, fragmentation and gravity flow are core elements for sublevel caving (SLC). For the ore recovery to be as high and the waste rock dilution as low as possible all three elements have to work as planned. READ MORE

8. Development of speed-power performance models for ship voyage optimization
Abstract : Various measures, such as voyage optimization, performance monitoring and ship cleaning schedules, have been developed to help increase the energy efficiency of shipping operations. One of the most important elements needed for these measures is a reliable ship speed-power model. READ MORE

9. Modelling and Simulation of Train-Track Interaction including Wear Prediction
Abstract : Many problems in railway traffic arise as a result of the dynamic interaction between rolling trains and tracks. The problems include both instantaneous effects due to induced vibrations of track and vehicle, and more long-term processes of a detrimental nature. READ MORE

10. Material properties and full-scale rain exposure of lime-hemp concrete walls : measurements and simulations
Abstract : Lime-hemp concrete (LHC) is a building material consisting of a lime-based binder combined with hemp shiv that is suitable for various building applications. This thesis aimed to elucidate the possibilities for using LHC for exterior walls in a cold, wet climate through investigating mechanical, thermal and moisture-related properties of the material.
