  1. 1. Multiphase continuum modeling of wood : A hybrid mixture theory approach

    Författare :Winston Mmari; Björn Johannesson; Lynn Schreyer; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Moisture transport; Coupled heat and moisture; Over-hygroscopic; Hybrid mixture theory; Mixture theory; Swelling; Hygro-mechanical; Non-linear elasticity; Large deformation; Phase field crack model; Anisotropic cracking; FEM; Numerical model; Norway spruce; Wood; Porous media; Forestry and Wood Technology; Skog och träteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Wood has been used as a construction material for a very long time. The development of efficient industrial production processes of wood has expanded the use of the material with the introduction of new products, such as engineered wood products. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Dielectric Properties of Liquid-Impregnated Porous Solids

    Författare :Bo Nettelblad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fluid-solid interface; porous microstructure; temperature; ion-containing liquid; transport properties of porous media; brine; salinity; electric conduction; models of composite media; interface phenomena; dielectric relaxation; rock;

    Sammanfattning : Dielectric spectroscopy is a versatile tool that can often be used as a non-destructive, indirect way of measuring other important properties (such as content of crude oil or degree of curing of a resin). The dielectric properties of materials are thus of interest in several circumstances and not only for materials used for electrical purposes (such as electrical insulation). LÄS MER

  3. 3. Modeling of foams for impact simulations

    Författare :Mats L Landervik; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Theory of Porous Media; Shell theory.; Constitutive modeling; Multiscale Analysis; Foams; Computational Homogenization;

    Sammanfattning : Stimulated by the strong drive in the automotive industry to reduce energy consumption,and, linked to that, the need to reduce weight, this thesis concerns modeling of foams forimpact simulations. To start with, a continuum hyperelasto-viscoplastic model is developedwithin the framework of Theory of Porous Media. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Continuum modeling of the coupled transport of mass, energy, and momentum in paperboard

    Författare :Henrik Askfelt; Hållfasthetslära; []
    Nyckelord :Paperboard; Mixture theory; Porous media; Large strains;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the coupling between moisture, heat, and deformation in paperboard. The presented investigations are primarily conducted via macroscale continuum modeling but experimental characterisations are also made. LÄS MER

  5. 5. On the Dynamics of Porous Media - Application to Road and Railway Structures

    Författare :Bernd Lenhof; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; poromechanics; dynamics; railway; multiphasic mixture; hydro-mechanical modeling; internal erosion; road; porous media;

    Sammanfattning : Load-bearing road and railway structures normally consist of layers of particulate porous materials, often with bitumen-based binders. The layered system is subjected to dynamic loading from traffic, which inevitably causes material deterioration that enhances permanent surface deformation. LÄS MER
