  1. 11. Plasticity and Damage Mechanics for Modeling Concrete Failure

    Författare :Peter Grassl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nonlocal; concrete; localization; plasticity; damage;

    Sammanfattning : Concrete structures exhibit strongly non-linear and complex mechanical behavior. Hence, they are nowadays often analyzed by means of the finite element method, whereby a realistic description of the material behavior is decisive for the validity of the results. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Explosions in urban environments: Modelling of gas explosions and risk of premature shear failure in reinforced concrete structures

    Författare :Fabio José Lozano Mendoza; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; blast strength; urban road environments; computational fluid dynamics; blast loading; Vapour cloud explosions; factorial design; premature shear failure; Monte Carlo method; model uncertainty;

    Sammanfattning : The risk for accidental gas explosions in urban environments has increased in Sweden in recent years. This is due to densification of existing urban centres and the rise of vehicles powered by alternative fuels. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Assessment of shear and energy‐absorption capacity of reinforced concrete elements under impulsive loads

    Författare :Viktor Peterson; Anders Ansell; Mikael Hallgren; Yanyan Sha; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Impulsive loads; impact; blast; shear reinforcement; shear failure; Betongbyggnad; Concrete Structures;

    Sammanfattning : Impulsive loads have been observed to cause brittle shear failure in reinforced concrete elements designed for ductile failure modes under static loads. Brittle failure modes exhibit poorer energy absorption capabilities compared to ductile flexural failure modes due to their limited deformation capacity, leading to premature failure. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Modeling framework for ageing of low alloy steel

    Författare :Magnus Boåsen; Pål Efsing; Jonas Faleskog; Carl F. O. Dahlberg; Christian Niordson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low alloy steel; length scale effects; size effects; plasticity; cleavage fracture; brittle fracture; weakest link; ageing; weld metal; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Ageing of low alloy steel in nuclear applications commonly takes the form as a hardening and an embrittlement of the material. This is due to the evolution of the microstructure during irradiation and at purely thermal conditions, as a combination or separate. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Deformation and failure of hard rock under laboratory and field conditions

    Författare :Kelvis Pérez; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The understanding of the fracture mechanisms and failure processes of the rock is an important requirement for the design of mining excavations and civil engineering constructions. The fracture process is necessary for the excavation and fragmentation of rock, but fracture of rock must be avoided and controlled to preserve the integrity of the construction. LÄS MER
