1. Discrete element modelling of the mechanical behaviour of lithium-ion battery electrode layers
Sammanfattning : Since their introduction in the late 20th century, lithium-ion batteries have become the leading battery technology for portable devices and electric vehicles due to their high energy density and rechargeability. However, the increasing demand for a longer battery life span is hindered by the fading of the battery’s charge capacity over prolonged use. LÄS MER
2. On the mechanics of actin and intermediate filament networks and their contribution to cellular mechanics
Sammanfattning : The mechanical behaviour of cells is essential in ensuring continued physiological function, and deficiencies therein can result in a variety of diseases. Also, altered mechanical response of cells can in certain cases be an indicator of a diseased state, and even actively promoting progression of pathology. LÄS MER
3. A Fracture Mechanics Approach to Study Hydrogen Embrittlement in High Strength Martensitic Steels
Sammanfattning : High strength steels that are subjected to hydrogen experience embrittlement where the mechanical properties are reduced, and premature failure of components may occur. Although the phenomenon has been recognized for over 150 years, it is not clear what drives embrittlement. LÄS MER
4. Impact damping and airplane towing : two studies of the response of solid bodies to transient loads
Sammanfattning : The impact of a linearly elastic hammer on a linearly viscoelastic plate is the first problem considered in this thesis. The results, obtained by using the Laplace transformation method, can be used in the design of impact protection devices. LÄS MER
5. On fiber network fracture mechanics and kink band formation in biocomposites
Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes seven appended papers dealing with: (1) The fracture of fibrous materials, e.g. LÄS MER
