1. 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
2. On crack growth under compressive stresses
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns fractures subjected to compressive stresses. In the four papers appended fracture behavior in brittle as well as ductile materials is studied. LÄS MER
3. 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
4. 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
5. Modeling of structural integrity of aged low alloy steels using non-local mechanics
Sammanfattning : Ageing of low alloy steels affects the structural integrity assessment as it most commonly causes embrittlement and a hardening of the material. This is due to theevolution of the microstructure during operation in the specific application. LÄS MER
