6. Vibrations from Railway Traffic : Computational Modeling and Analysis
Sammanfattning : The population is growing, and an increasing proportion of the population lives in urban areas. As a consequence, human exposure to noise and vibrations is increasing; two major sources being railway and road traffic. Larger and denser cities lead to a higher amount of traffic close to where people work and live. LÄS MER
7. Elastic Properties of Nanowires - an Atomistic Evaluation
Sammanfattning : Nanowires constitute one of the fundamental building blocks in assembled nanodevices. Due to the high surface to volume ratio, the fraction of surface atoms is not negligible for nanosized elements. LÄS MER
8. Excitation of Tyre Vibrations due to Tyre/Road Interaction
Sammanfattning : Tyre/road noise is the main contributor to road traffic noise at speeds above 40 km/h for passenger cars and above 70 km/h for heavy trucks. Research has been carried out during the last thirty years in order to understand and quantify the generation mechanisms responsible for tyre/road noise. LÄS MER
9. Almost-axial impact on elastic and viscoelastic cantilever columns
Sammanfattning : Almost-axial impact between a rigid body and a cantilever column is studied. A preliminary study of the contact process is presented for a flat-ended impacting body and a flat-ended elastic Timoshenko column with rectangular cross-section. The equations of motion pertaining to the column are solved using an explicit finite difference method. LÄS MER
10. Mechanical Characterization of Engineering Materials by Modal Testing
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the use of modal testing for establishing elastic constants of engineering materials and for indicating material variability in terms of stiffness and damping properties. The methodology using modal testing techniques, is applied to timber beams, high strength concrete prisms, wood-based panels (oriented strand board and chipboard), an aluminium alloy panel and plastic laminate panels (high-pressure laminate).
