1. 11. Numerical models for degradation of concrete in hydraulic structures due to long-term contact with water

   Författare :Daniel Eriksson; Anders Ansell; Richard Malm; Erik Nordström; Katja Fridh; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; degradation; deterioration mechanisms; hydraulic structures; air-entrained concrete; multiphase model; long-term moisture conditions; pore size distribution; freezing; partially saturated; finite element method; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : The durability of concrete is of major concern in all types of concrete structures where the combined effect of exposure conditions and the type and quality of the concrete material usually determines the rate of degradation. Furthermore, there are synergy effects between different deterioration mechanisms, which means that the combined rate of degradation is higher than the sum of the individual rates of each mechanism.

3. 12. Concrete as a multi-physical material with applications to hydro power facilities

   Författare :Tobias Gasch; Anders Ansell; Richard Malm; Erik Nordström; Mats Emborg; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : During its lifetime, a concrete structure is subjected to many different actions, ranging from mechanical loads to environmental actions. To accurately predict its integrity from casting and throughout its service life, a modelling strategy is required that considers mechanical loading but also implicitly accounts for physical effects such as temperature and moisture variations.

4. 13. Multiphysical analysis methods to predict the ageing and durability of concrete

   Författare :Tobias Gasch; Anders Ansell; Richard Malm; Erik Nordström; Max Hendriks; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ageing; Cracking; Creep; Concrete; Durability; Finite Element Method; Multiphysics; Shrinkage; Beständighet; Betong; Finita elementmetoden; Krypning; Krympning; Multifysik; Sprickbildning; Åldring; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : With the societal demand for sustainability and the increasing age of infrastructure, a crucial task for the civil engineering community is to improve the durability of concrete structures. This thesis aims to contribute to such development through theoretical studies using mathematical modelling and numerical simulations. LÄS MER

5. 14. Warhead penetration in concrete protective structures

   Författare :Håkan Hansson; Anders Ansell; Mattias Unosson; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Warhead penetration; FE analysis; experiment; material modelling; fortifications; Stridsdelspenetration; FE-analyser; experiment; materialmodellering; fortifikationer;

   Sammanfattning : The analysis of penetration of warheads in concrete protective structures is an important part of the study of weapon effects on protective structures. This type of analysis requires that the design load in the form of a warhead is determined, and its characteristic and performance within a protective structure is known. LÄS MER

7. 15. A systems approach to ice loads on concrete dams

   Författare :Rikard Hellgren; Richard Malm; Anders Ansell; Erik Nordström; Pierre Legér; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ice loads; Ice pressure; Dam safety; Concrete dams; Cold regions; Monitoring; Measurements; Concrete Structures; Betongbyggnad;

   Sammanfattning : Dams are mainly used for the storage of water to electricity production and irrigation, or for river regulation. Continuous work to assure a high dam safety level is a prerequisite to minimize the risk for the uncontrolled release of water. LÄS MER
