  2. 16. Compressive Failure of NCF Composites

    Author : Anton Shipsha; Magnus Burman; Zuheir Barsoum; Leif Asp; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : The necessity to reduce environmental impact promotes transportation industry to reduce energy consumption of vehicles. One possible way to improve vehicles' structural efficiency is to utilize modern composite materials that offer excellent mechanical performance-to-weight ratio. READ MORE

  4. 17. Interplay of the Electrical and Mechanical Properties of Conjugated Polymers

    Author : Sepideh Zokaei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

  5. 18. Strengthening of concrete structures by the use of mineral based composites : system and design models for flexure and shear

    Author : Thomas Blanksvärd; Thanasis C. Triantafillou; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : A great number of society's resources are invested in existing concrete structures, such as bridges, tunnels, different kind of buildings etc. All of these structures have both an expected function and an expected life span. However, both the function and the life span can be influenced by external factors, e.g. READ MORE

  6. 19. Characterisation of Time-dependent Statistical Failure of Fibre Networks : Applications for Light-weight Structural Composites

    Author : Amanda Mattsson; Tetsu Uesaka; Christina Dahlström; Sören Östlund; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The future of a sustainable society requires that materials not only be renewable, but also leave as small a carbon foot-printin the environment as possible. One such product is light-weight composite material for transportation packages. Cellulose fibres have been and will continue to be ideal for this purpose. READ MORE

  7. 20. Reactive extrusion of wood-thermoplastic composites

    Author : Göran Grubbström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trä och bionanokompositer; Wood and Bionanocomposites;

    Abstract : The interest in Wood-thermoplastic composites (WPCs) has increased during the last decades. WPCs are commonly used as building material for decking and railing because of its low need of maintenance. Wood is a renewable resource of good mechanical properties and this make wood fibers interesting to use as reinforcement in a thermoplastic composite. READ MORE
