21. Timber-concrete hybrid structural systems : Examples, long and short-term dynamic monitoring, and numerical analysis
Sammanfattning : Timber-concrete hybrid buildings are an innovative solution to increase the amount of timber materials in modern buildings. Due to its lower impact on the environment than materials like steel and concrete, the demand for timber products is rising as the construction industry aims to decrease its environmental footprint.

22. In silico tools in risk assessment : of industrial chemicals in general and non-dioxin-like PCBs in particular
Sammanfattning : Industrial chemicals in European Union produced or imported in volumes above 1 tonne annually, necessitate a registration within REACH. A common problem, concerning these chemicals, is deficient information and lack of data for assessing the hazards posed to human health and the environment. LÄS MER
23. Civil structural health monitoring : strategies, methods and applications
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes a Civil Structural Health Monitoring (CSHM) method for assessment of civil structures by using a combination of advanced monitoring equipment with probabilistic based assessment. The numbers of civil structures such as bridges, tunnels, retaining walls, dams, etc. LÄS MER
24. First-Principles Investigation of Bulk and Interfacial Properties of Cu-Co Binary System
Sammanfattning : Due to the complex nature of phase interfaces, acquiring precise interfacial energies is usually a big challenge for both experimental measurements and computational modelings. In this thesis, we put forward an efficient route for assessing the temperature dependence of the interfacial energy using density functional theory (DFT). LÄS MER
25. Investigation of a prototype industrial gas turbine combustor using alternative gaseous fuels
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, the effect of alternative gaseous fuels, with high hydrogen content and lower calorific value, on gas turbine combustion was investigated experimentally. The aim of the investigation was to find operational limitations for an experimental burner and to supply data for validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). LÄS MER
