2. 6. Non-linear model applied on composites exhibiting inelastic behavior: development and validation

   Author : Liva Pupure; Maciej Wysocki; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

   Abstract : The polymeric composite materials are in high demand by industries where light and strong materials are required. Although manmade fiber (e.g. glass, carbon, aramid fibers) are most often used to reinforce polymers, natural fibers due to their environmental friendliness and sustainability have been also considered.

   Abstract : This thesis focuses on the effect of microstructural variation on the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of ductile iron. To research and determine these effects, two grades of ductile iron, (i) GJS-500-7 and (ii) high silicon GJS-500-14, were cast in a geometry containing several plates with different section thicknesses in order to produce microstructural variation.

5. 8. Mechanical properties of flax fibers and their composites

   Author : Edgars Sparnins; Kristofer Gamstedt; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flax fibers; natural fiber composites; mechanical properties; Time dependent behavior; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

   Abstract : Flax fibers, along with a number of other natural fibers, are being considered as an environmentally friendlier alternative of synthetic fibers in fiber-reinforced polymer composites. A common feature of natural fibers is a much higher variability of mechanical properties. READ MORE

6. 9. Scale and Stress Effects on Hydro-Mechanical Properties of Fractured Rock Masses

   Author : Alireza Baghbanan; Lanru Jing; Jian Zhao; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aperture-trace length correlation; Discrete Fracture Network DFN ; Representative Elementary Volume REV ; Strength; Stress-Strain curve; Discrete Element Method DEM ; Stress effect; Deformability of fractures; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the effects of size and stress on permeability, deformability and strength of fractured rock masses are investigated. A comparison study was carried out to examine the effects of considering, or not considering, the correlation between distributions of fracture apertures and fracture trace lengths on the hydro-mechanical behavior of fractured rocks.

7. 10. On multiscale modeling of pearlitic steel

   Author : Erik Lindfeldt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cementite; crystal plasticity; Pearlite; multiscale modeling; computational homogenization; digital image correlation; ferrite; in-situ SEM;

   Abstract : By studying pearlitic steels using a scanning electron microscope it can be observed that pearlite is a two-phase material with cementite lamellae embedded in a matrix of ferrite. The cementite is commonly described as being stiff and brittle in comparison to the ferrite which is considered to have a soft and ductile mechanical behavior. READ MORE
