  1. 1. Fatigue Assessment of Container Ships – a Contribution to Direct Calculation Procedures

    Author : Zhiyuan Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finite element analysis; container ship; warping stress; time-domain method; nonlinear panel method; full-scale measurement; side-shell structures; ship routing; stress concentration; fatigue;

    Abstract : Within the field of marine structural engineering, the introduction of new materials and material classes, the development of production techniques and new design, and new requirements imposed by authorities are examples which justify a need for continuous revisit and update of fatigue assessment methodologies of marine structures. This thesis contributes to the development and improvement of fatigue assessment methodology for ship structures. READ MORE

  2. 2. Creep, deformation and moisture redistribution during air convective wood drying and conditioning : air convective wood drying and conditioning

    Author : Tom Morén; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träteknik; Wood Technology;

    Abstract : Air convective wood drying is associated with a considerable risk for damage to the timber, especially checking and warping. This thesis contains an analysis of creep and deformation during wood drying related to stress development and susceptibility of checking. Also heat and mass transfer problems in the wood drying process are considered. READ MORE

  3. 3. Epitaxial III-V/Si heterojunctions for photonic devices

    Author : Giriprasanth Omanakuttan; Sebastian Lourdudoss; Yanting Sun; Harri Lipsanen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; epitaxy; heterojunction; III-V on Si integration; solar cell; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Monolithic integration of III-V materials on silicon is of great interest for efficient electronic-photonic integrated devices and multijunction solar cells on silicon. However, defect formation in the heteroepitaxial layers due to lattice mismatch, thermal mismatch, and polarity mismatch makes it a great challenge. READ MORE
