1. 31. Hydration, pore structure, and related moisture properties of fly ash blended cement-based materials : Experimental methods and laboratory measurements

   Författare :Oskar Linderoth; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cement; Murbruk; Betong; Hydratation; Porstruktur; Sorption; Fukttransport; Mineraliska tillsatsmaterial; Flygaska; Cement; Mortar; Concrete; Hydration; Pore structure; Water vapour sorption; Moisture transport; Supplementary cementitious materials; Fly ash;

   Sammanfattning : Cement-based materials, such as mortar and concrete, are the most employed construction materials in the world. Cement is an important component; it reacts with water to form a glue, called cement paste, which causes the material to harden. Today, cement production accounts for a significant portion of the world’s annual carbon dioxide emissions. LÄS MER

3. 32. Alternative methods for analysing moisture transport in buildings : Utilisation of tracer gas and natural stable isotopes

   Författare :Kjartan Gudmundsson; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tracer gas; water vapour permeability; diffusion; surface diffusion; isotopic analysis; deuterium; oxygen-18; fractionation; vapour barrier; transient numerical modelling of diffusion; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

   Sammanfattning : New methods, based on tracer gas measurements and isotopicanalysis can be used to evaluate the moisture properties ofbuilding materials and provide the means for forensic analysisof the origins and history of excessive water in buildings, theimmediate practical consequences of which will be the abilityto improve the moisture performance of constructions. It is shown, in theory and through measurements how thewater vapour permeability of porous building materials can witha good degree of accuracy be estimated with tracer gasmeasurements that provide an efficient alternative to the cupmethod.

4. 33. Climatic conditions inside nuclear reactor containments - Monitoring campaign

   Författare :Mikael Oxfall; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nuclear power plant; concrete; onsite measurements; relative humidity; boiling water reactor; pressurized water reactor; moisture transport coefficient; moisture flux.;

   Sammanfattning : The reactor containment is one of the most important buildings at a nuclear power plant. In case of an accident the containment wall is the final protection against radioactive leakage to the surrounding environment. A reactor containment contains different types of concrete structures.

5. 34. Moisture-Induced Strains and Stresses in Wood

   Författare :Sabina Huč; Staffan Svensson; E. Kristofer Gamstedt; Sigurdur Ormarsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mechanosorption; multi-Fickian moisture transport model; orthotropy; rheology; three-dimensional mechanical model; viscoelasticity; wood; Engineering science with specialization in Applied Mechanics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tillämpad mekanik;

   Sammanfattning : To design safe, reliable and durable timber structures subjected to varying natural outdoor or indoor climates, understanding the long-term behavior of wood when mechanically loaded or restrained to deform is crucial. The present thesis focuses on the numerical modeling of the long-term mechanical behavior of wood. LÄS MER

7. 35. Redistribution of moisture and ions in cement based materials

   Författare :Magnus Åhs; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Moisture redistribution; ion redistribution; cement based materials; hysteresis; sorption isotherm; scanning;

   Sammanfattning : There were two principal objectives for this thesis. The first was to develop a methodology and evaluation model of moisture redistribution in order to make the future relative humidity in a screeded concrete slab predictable. The second objective was to develop a method to determine the critical humidity for ion transport in concrete. LÄS MER
