  1. 16. Modelling of the Fletcher-Gent effect and obtaining hyperelastic parameters for filled elastomers

    Författare :Rickard Österlöf; Leif Kari; Per-Erik Austrell; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; filled elastomers; natural rubber; carbon black; Fletcher-Gent effect; Payne-effect; finite strain; hyperelastic;

    Sammanfattning : The strain amplitude dependency , i.e. the Fletcher-Gent effect and Payne effect, and the strain rate dependency of rubber with reinforcing fillers is modelled using a modified boundary surface model and implemented uniaxially. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Hip fractures : A biomechanical analysis of fracture strength prediction, prevention, and repair

    Författare :Joeri Kok; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Finite element; Bone cement; Femur; Fracture; Experimental mechanics; X-ray imaging;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the aging population, hip fracture incidence has been increasing over the past decades. Measurements of bone mineral density with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry are the gold standard for hip fracture risk assessment, where patients with a low bone density have a high risk of fracture.

  3. 18. Control of Cracking due to Imposed Strains in Concrete Structures

    Författare :Dan Pettersson; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydraulic engineering; Civil engineering; Friction.; Restraint; Shrinkage; Imposed deformations; Minimum reinforcement; Crack widths; Reinforced concrete; Crack development; Crack control; offshore technology; soil mechanics; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with crack control due to imposed deformations in concrete structures. The objective of crack control may either be to prevent cracking or to limit the crack widths. The aim here is to increase the knowledge in both fields for some common structures. Five papers are included and the three last concern crack development. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Beam-to-Beam Contact and Its Application to Micromechanical Simulation of Fiber Networks

    Författare :Hamid Reza Motamedian; Artem Kulachenko; Umberto Perego; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fiber network; beam-to-beam contact; rotational contact; non-consistent; simulation; finite element; multiscale; microscale; micromechanics; paper; refining; beating; fine; hygroexpansion; shrinkage; drying; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis covers the topic of modeling the three-dimensional fiber net- works with the finite element method. It contains the part addressing the numerical aspects of the modeling, namely, the contact formulation and application of the developed methods to the fundamental questions such as the effect of randomness in fiber properties and effect of fines and hygroexpansion.

  5. 20. Modeling and experimental characterization of pearlitic rail steels subjected to large biaxial strains

    Författare :Knut Andreas Meyer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hyperelasto-plasticity; axial-torsion; kinematic hardening; biaxial loading; Pearlitic steel;

    Sammanfattning : Large shear strains develop in the near-surface region under the running band of railway rails. Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) cracks often initiate in this region, causing major problems for the railway industry. However, characterization of the constitutive and fatigue behavior of this region is difficult due to the large gradient of properties. LÄS MER
