    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermomechanical finite element; Shell element; 3D beam element; Steel structures; Buckling; Fire Safety Engineering; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

    Abstract : The ignition and the propagation of a fire inside a building may lead to global or local structural collapse, especially in steel framed structures. Indeed, steel structures are particularly vulnerable to thermal attack because of a high value of steel conductivity and of the small thickness that characterise the cross-sections. READ MORE

  4. 2. Modelling and simulation of simultaneous forming and quenching

    Author : Greger Bergman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Datorstödd maskinkonstruktion; Computer Aided Design;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to develop and evaluate numerical methods for modelling and simulation of simultaneous forming and quenching within an integrated product development environment. Simultaneous forming and quenching, also referred to as hot-stamping, is a manufacturing process for high strength automotive components such as side impact protection beams. READ MORE
