11. Chloride Induced Corrosion of Steel Bars in Fibre Reinforced Concrete
Sammanfattning : Chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcement is the most widespread degradation mechanism affecting the durability of reinforced concrete structures. Macro-cracks provide a preferential path for moisture, oxygen and Cl ions to reach the embedded reinforcement, playing a major role in their total transport. LÄS MER
12. Anisotropy in pearlitic steel subjected to rolling contact fatigue - modelling and experiments
Sammanfattning : In rails and wheels subjected to severe rolling/sliding contact, large plastic deformations accumulate in the surface layer. This decreases the fatigue resistance of components and makes this layer prone to formation of common rolling contact related defects. LÄS MER
13. Modelling of fracture toughness using peridynamics : A Study of J-integral, essential work and homogenisation
Sammanfattning : Fracture toughness is one of the most important properties of a material. Being able toaccurately estimate the energy that goes into forming new crack surfaces is essential for the development of new materials, quality assurance, structural monitoring and failure analysis. LÄS MER
14. The influence of microstructure on the crack initiation and propagation in Al-Si casting alloys
Sammanfattning : For reducing the CO2 footprint in many industrial fields, the goal is to produce lighter components. The aluminium-silicon (Al-Si) cast alloys are promising candidates to fulfill these goals with a high weight-to-strength ratio, good corrosion properties, excellent castability, and recyclable material.

15. Residual Stress Analysis and Fatigue Assessment of Welded Steel Structures
Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis is concerned with fatigue life of welded structures. Several topics related to fatigue of welded structures are treated such as; weld defects and their influence on fatigue performance of welded structures, fatigue life prediction using LEFM (Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics), fatigue testing, welding simulation, residual stress prediction and measurement and their influence on fatigue life.
