1. Inflation Mechanics of Hyperelastic Membranes
Sammanfattning : The applications of inflatable membrane structures are increasing rapidly in the various fields of engineering and science. The geometric, material, force and contact non-linearities complicate this subject further, which in turn increases the demand for computationally efficient methods and interpretations of counter-intuitive behaviors noted by the scientific community.

2. On efficient and adaptive modelling of friction damping in bladed disks
Sammanfattning : This work focuses on efficient modelling and adaptive control of friction damping in bladed disks. To efficiently simulate the friction contact, a full-3D time-discrete contact model is reformulated and an analytical expression for the Jacobian matrix is derived that reduces the computation time drastically with respect to the classical finite difference method.

3. Wheel-rail contact modelling in vehicle dynamics simulation
Sammanfattning : The wheel-rail contact is at the core of all research related to vehicle-track interaction. This tiny interface governs the dynamic performance of rail vehicles through the loads it transmits and, like any high stress concentration zone, it is subjected to serious damage phenomena. LÄS MER
4. Flexographic Post-Printing of Corrugated Board : Contact Mechanics and Print Quality
Sammanfattning : As the corrugated board industry strives to produce products with a higher print quality in the converting stage, there is a need for a greater understanding of the factors influencing the final print quality and how we perceive the print. In this work, a method for quantifying the print quality of printed corrugated board is presented as well as methods that quantitatively characterize the mechanical interaction between the printing form and the corrugated board in the printing nip.

5. Computational Nonsmooth Mechanics
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the application of modern methods from the field of mathematical programming for solving certain problems of nonsmooth mechanics. Attention is given to contact problems with friction as well as plasticity problems. LÄS MER
