  2. 1. Numerical simulation of weldment creep response

    Author : Peter Segle; KTH; []
    Keywords : ABAQUS; constraint effect; continuum damage mechanics; creep; creep crack growth; design; design code;

    Abstract : In-service inspections of high temperature pressureequipment show that weldments are prone to creep and fatiguedamage. It is not uncommon that severely damaged weldments arefound even before the design life of the component has beenreached. READ MORE

  4. 2. Strength Design Methods for Glass Structures

    Author : Maria Fröling; Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finite element; computational techniques; laminated glass; stress concentration factor; design chart; bolt fixing; adhesive joint; balustrade; shear-capacity; dynamic impulse load; insulated glass;

    Abstract : In this thesis, user friendly and efficient methods for the design of glass structures are developed. The glass structures comprise various boundary conditions. Several types of glass are considered: single layered glass as well as laminated and insulated glass units. Typical load cases for strength design of glass are applied. READ MORE

  5. 3. Shear cracks in concrete structures subjected to in-plane stresses

    Author : Richard Malm; Håkan Sundquist; Kent Gylltoft; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Shear; plane state stress; crack width; FE analysis; design standards; serviceability state; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

    Abstract : After only two years of service, extensive cracking was found in the webs of two light-rail commuter line bridges in Stockholm, the Gröndal and Alvik bridges. Due to this incident it was found necessary to study the means available for analysing shear cracking in concrete structures subjected to in-plane stresses. READ MORE

  6. 4. Computational methods for the analysis and design of photonic bandgap structures

    Author : Min Qiu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Photonic crystal; Photonic bandgap; Numerical analysis; Optimal design; Finite-difference time-domain method; Plane wave expansion method; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : In the present thesis, computational methods for theanalysis and design of photonic bandgap structure areconsidered. Many numerical methods have been used to study suchstructures. Among them, the plane wave expansion method is veryoften used. READ MORE

  7. 5. In-plane Compressive Response of Sandwich Panels

    Author : Anders Lindström; Dan Zenkert; Stefan Hallström; Leif Carlsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sandwich; Finite Element Analysis FEA ; Fracture; In-plane compression; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik; Structural and vibration physics; Struktur- och vibrationsfysik;

    Abstract : The high specific bending stiffness of sandwich structures can with advantage be used in vehicles to reduce their weight and thereby potentially also their fuel consumption. However, the structure must not only meet the in-service requirements but also provide sufficient protection of the vehicle passengers in a crash situation. READ MORE
