  2. 11. Computational weld mechanics - Increased accuracy in fatigue assessment, distortion and residual stress analysis

    Author : Jinchao Zhu; Zuheir Barsoum; Mansoor Khurshid; Rami Mansour; Heikki Remes; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Computational weld mechanics; fatigue assessment; weld distortion; residual stress; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis work is concerned with the mechanical response of welded steel structures, which are distortions, residual stresses, and fatigue. The accuracy of fatigue assessment, distortion and residual stress analysis using Computational weld mechanics (CWM) is focused. READ MORE

  4. 12. Residual Stress Analysis and Fatigue of Welded Structures

    Author : Zuheir Barsoum; Jack Samuelsson; Jan Langkjear Hansen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; welding; fatigue; finite element analysis; fracture mechanics; residual stresses; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis is generally concerned with the fatigue of welded structures. Several topics related to fatigue of welded structures are treated such as; weld defects and their influence on fatigue performance of welded structures, fatigue life prediction using LEFM (Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics), fatigue testing, welding simulation, residual stress prediction and measurement and their influence on fatigue.

  5. 13. Stress, Drugs and Neuroscience : Neurobiological Effects of Social Stressors and Drug Exposure in Young and Adolescent Rats

    Author : Linnea Granholm; Ingrid Nylander; Erika Roman; Anne-Lie Svensson; Maria Ellgren; Annika Thorsell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adolescence; alcohol exposure; amphetamine; beta-endorphin; dopamine; dynorphin; early life; endogenous opioids; enkephalin; gene expression; high-speed chronoamperometry; nociceptin orphanin FQ; radioimmunoassay; self-administration; social stress; voluntary alcohol intake; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : Experiences early in life or during adolescence modulate neuronal networks in the immature brain and consequently lay the foundation for future susceptibility or resilience towards psychiatric disorders. The objective in this thesis is to understand, in part, how the surrounding environment shapes the brain of a young individual. READ MORE

  6. 14. Thin metal films on weakly-interacting substrates : Nanoscale growth dynamics, stress generation, and morphology manipulation

    Author : Andreas Jamnig; Kostas Sarakinos; Gregory Abadias; Gregory Thompson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thin films; magnetron sputter-deposition; in situ and real-time characterization; early film growth stages; residual stress; manipulation of morphology; Couches minces; pulvérisation magnétron; caractérisation in situ en temps réel; premiers stades de croissance; contraintes résiduelles; manipulation de morphologie;

    Abstract : Vapor-based growth of thin metal films with controlled morphology on weakly-interacting substrates (WIS), including oxides and van der Waals materials, is essential for the fabrication of multifunctional metal contacts in a wide array of optoelectronic devices. Achieving this entails a great challenge, since weak film/substrate interactions yield a pronounced and uncontrolled 3D morphology. READ MORE

  7. 15. Residual stresses in paperboard and the influence of drying conditions

    Author : Magnus Östlund; Sören Östlund; Douglas Coffin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; paper; drying; mechanical properties; residual stress; curl;

    Abstract : The drying sequence in the manufacturing process for paperboard involves evaporation of water, primarily from within the fibres. The vapour is then transported out of the web by pressure or concentration gradients. READ MORE
