1. 1. Mechano-sorptive Creep in Wood - Experimental Studies of the Influence of Material Properties

   Författare :Charlotte Bengtsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; material properties; deformation; shrinkage swelling; mechano-sorption; dynamic modulus of elasticity; creep;

   Sammanfattning : Mechano-sorptive creep deformations appear when wood is loaded under varying moisture conditions. These creep deformations are known to be larger than the creep deformations under constant humidity conditions. The present thesis deals with mechano-sorptive creep in Norway spruce wood. LÄS MER

3. 2. Moisture-related properties of modified timber - an experimental study

   Författare :Hannah Epmeier; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :Scots pine; material properties; chemical modification; building components; timber; bending creep;

   Sammanfattning : Wood has long traditions as a structural and building material. In those cases in which its natural features are not sufficient, chemical modification can eliminate some shortcomings. LÄS MER

4. 3. Moisture-induced stress and distortion of wood : A numerical and experimental study of wood's drying and long-term behaviour

   Författare :Sara Florisson; Sigurdur Ormarsson; Johan Vessby; Kent Persson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; analytical method; calibration; controlled climate; creep; distortion; experimental methodology; FEM; fibre orientation; mechano-sorption; moisture transport; natural climate; Norway spruce; numerical model; three-dimensional; timber beam; validation; wood; Byggteknik; Civil engineering; Forestry and Wood Technology; Skog och träteknik;

   Sammanfattning : With the current advances made in three-dimensional modelling of wood, it is possible to provide an overall picture of moisture flow, and moisture-induced stress and deformations, whereas previously, experiments only provided local measurements. The main aim of the doctoral thesis is to investigate the possibilities of the developed three-dimensional numerical model to predict the behaviour of wood when simultaneously exposed to a mechanical load and a particular climate.

5. 4. Assessment of existing concrete bridges : bending stiffness as a performance indicator

   Författare :Markus Bergström; Paulo J. de S. Cruz; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Optimizing the use of existing civil reinforced concrete (RC) structures could be interpreted in such a way as to say that the capacity should be used and taken care of in an effective manner, both from a technical and economical point of view, keeping the safety in mind. Achieving this requires thorough understanding of the structure and also of the tools used for assessing current and future capacity and needs. LÄS MER

7. 5. On the quantification of healing in asphalt materials

   Författare :Remya Varma; Nicole Kringos; Romain Balieu; Lily Poulikakos; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Healing; bitumen; mastic; viscoelastic strain; viscoplastic strain; fracture; creep and recovery; Läkning; bitumen; mastic; viskoelastisk töjning; viskoplastisk töjning; brott; kryp and återhämtning; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

   Sammanfattning : Asphalt materials exhibit self-healing characteristics. In order to evaluate the healing capabilities of these materials, numerous investigations are carried out by researchers. These investigations include various definitions of healing and mechanical test methods to quantify the extent of healing. LÄS MER
