  1. 1. Condition assessment of concrete dams in cold climate

    Author : Rikard Hellgren; Anders Ansell; Richard Malm; Anders Wiberg; Fernando Salazar González; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dam safety; dams; data analysis; monitoring; statistical models; hydraulic structures; static ice loads; concrete dams; cold regions; Betongbyggnad; Concrete Structures;

    Abstract : Dams in many countries are approaching their expected service life. Proper assessment of the aging dams structural health increase the knowledge of the current safety, and allow for better planning of renovation and rebuilding investments. READ MORE

  2. 2. Regulating energy performance of residential buildings in cold climate : a study of indicators, criteria, and evaluation methods

    Author : Ingrid Allard Stolterman; Thomas Olofsson; Gireesh Nair; Folke Björk; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy performance; building simulation; cold climate; energy use; indicators; evaluation methods; building regulations; residential buildings; energy measurements; performance gap; energy signature; sustainable development; hållbar utveckling; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Building energy performance has been important in Fennoscandia ever since the early vernacular houses, to combat the cold climate. Due to EU directive 2010/31/EU on the energy performance of buildings (EPBD recast), building energy performance has become even more relevant in northern Europe the last decade. READ MORE

  3. 3. Water and sediment quality of urban water bodies in cold climates

    Author : Ralf Rentz; Stefan Karlsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate and quantify pollution impact on urban waterbodies in cold climates and to find out which complex processes and influencing factors causetrapping or spread of pollutants. In order to do that water, sediment and porewater samplesfrom bays and stormwater ditches in Luleå, northern Sweden, and from an artificialstormwater pond in Sollentuna, south-central Sweden, were analysed for LOI, trace metalsand PAHs.

  4. 4. Freezing Temperature Flows in Railway Tunnels and its Consequence on the Rock Supporting Structure, the Rock and the Reinforcing Elements

    Author : Anna Andrén; Lars-Olof Dahlström; Erling Nordlund; Lars O Ericsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tunnel; frost penetration; ice formation; freeze-thaw test; frost shattering; temperature measurement; maintenance; degradation of rock and shotcrete; cold climate; Tunnel; köldinträngning; isbildning; frystester; frostsprängning; temperaturmätning; underhåll; nedbrytning av berg och sprutbetong; kallt klimat; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : Water in the surrounding rock mass flows into the tunnel via naturally occurring joints and via cracks caused by the blasting used to excavate the tunnel. The most common method in Sweden to reduce or prevent leakage problems are first and foremost the use of grouting. READ MORE

  5. 5. Internal frost damage in concrete - experimental studies of destruction mechanisms

    Author : Katja Fridh; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tining; frysning; kallt klimat; frostskador skador; betong; materiallära; materialteknik; frost; ice formation; material technology; calorimetry; concrete; length change; upptining; fukt; beständighet; livslängd; forskning;

    Abstract : The aim of the study was to identify mechanisms acting at internal frost destruction of concrete. By 'internal frost destruction' is meant damage caused inside concrete that is moisture insulated from the surroundings, i.e. when no moisture exchange with the surroundings is possible during freeze-thaw.
