  1. 1. Non-Linear Vibration and Dynamic Fracture Mechanics of Bridge Cables

    Author : Armando Leon; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cable Vibrations; Non-Linear Vibration; Dynamic Fracture Mechanics; Cable-Stayed Bridges; Dynamic Stress Intensity Factor;

    Abstract : In the present work, the non-linear vibrations and the corresponding dynamic fracture mechanics of cables of cable-stayed bridges are studied. The cables are among the most critical components in cable-stayed bridges and there are different damage sources such as corrosion, vibration, fatigue and fretting fatigue that can significantly affect them, thereby reducing the cable’s service life and even producing their failure.

  2. 2. Dynamic Train-Track Interaction: Linear and Non-Linear Track Models with Property Scatter

    Author : Johan Oscarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; stochastic track properties; non-linear track properties; dynamic train-track interaction; Latin Hypercube; perturbation technique; full-scale and laboratory measurements;

    Abstract : A numerical method was developed to investigate the vertical dynamic behaviour of a railway track subjected to the loading of a moving train. The numerical simulations are carried out in the time-domain with what is known as a moving mass model. READ MORE

  3. 3. Quantum electronic transport in low-dimensional semiconductors

    Author : Heiner Linke; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum transport; two-dimensional electron gas; contact-free characterisation; ballistic transport; mesoscopic; electron billiard; quantum dot; electron-electron interaction; non-linear; phase breaking; Halvledarfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1997:Linke; non-symmetric conductio; Semiconductory physics; low-dimensional structures;

    Abstract : Electronic transport is studied at low temperatures in two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) and in mesoscopic semiconductor microstructures. The method of microwave-detection of the Shubnikov-de Haas effect for the contact-free characterisation of transport properties of 2DEGs is explored using both magnetic-field modulation and light-induced carrier modulation.

  4. 4. Non-linear dynamics of Alfvén eigenmodes excited by fast ions in tokamaks

    Author : Tommy Bergkvist; Torbjörn Hellsten; Fulvio Zonca; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fusion plasma; tokamak; MHD; toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes; thermonuclear alpha particles; ion cyclotron resonance heating; Electrophysics; Elektrofysik;

    Abstract : The tokamak is so far the most promising magnetic configuration for achieving a net production of fusion energy. The D-T fusion reactions result in 3.5 MeV alpha-particles, which may destabilize Alfvén eigenmodes through wave-particle interaction. READ MORE

  5. 5. Acoustical experiments on the non-linear and non-equilibrium behavior of rocks

    Author : Babak Khodabandeloo; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The study of dynamic behavior of non-perfect materials, such as rocks, is a rich topic for developing sensitive material evaluation and damage detection techniques. It has extensive applications in a variety of fields such as Physics, Geology, and Aerospace, Mechanical, Civil, Petroleum, and Material Engineering. READ MORE
