1. Restraint Effects in Concrete Bridges : A Study of Cracking due to Thermal Actions and Shrinkage in Portal Frame Bridges
Abstract : Thermal actions and shrinkage cause volume changes in concrete structures. In structures which are restrained from movements, the restraint effects can cause cracking. However, when cracking occurs, the structure can deform to some extent, which reduces the restraint stresses and thus also the crack widths. READ MORE

3. Sputter Deposition, Mechanical Properties, and Thermal Stability of Nitride Based Superlattices
Abstract : Investigations concerning deposition, mechanical properties and thermal stability of nitride-based superlattice films have been performed. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy techniques were adopted for microstructural characterization, while nanoindentation hardness and abrasive wear resistance measurements were utilized for evaluation of mechanical properties.

4. Long-term Voltage Stability in Power Systems - Alleviating the Impact of Generator Current Limiters
Abstract : The main issues in this dissertation are the behaviour of current limiters protecting synchronous generators, and the interactions that occur with other components in the power system during a voltage instability. The importance of these limiters for the voltage stability is shown both in the analysis of small models and in the simulations of larger networks. READ MORE
