31. Investigation of Suffusion in Glacial Till Dam Cores : Testing methods and critical hydraulic gradients
Sammanfattning : Suffusion is an internal erosion mechanism that occurs in embankment dams when fine grained particles in the dam core are washed out by seepage. Initiation of internal erosion depends mainly on three major factors: grain size distribution of the soil, stress conditions and hydraulic gradient; whilst its continuation depends on the properties of the filter.

32. Grouting of Hard Rock with Gelling Liquids, Field and Laboratory Studies of Silica sol
Sammanfattning : Recent grouting projects in Sweden have concentrated on the grout itself. The only grout normally used in Sweden is a cement-based one. During the past 10 years, the acceptable flow of water into tunnels has been significantly reduced. The current requirements mean that an average fracture aperture of around 0. LÄS MER
33. Climate change and urban drainage : future precipitation and hydraulic impact
Sammanfattning : Increasing global mean temperature influences the hydrologic cycle. In the 21st century, hydrologic change featuring more heavy precipitation events is very likely according to the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC. This change will have a great impact on urban environments and infrastructures. LÄS MER
34. Virtual Holonomic Constraints: from academic to industrial applications
Sammanfattning : Whether it is a car, a mobile phone, or a computer, we are noticing how automation and production with robots plays an important role in the industry of our modern world. We find it in factories, manufacturing products, automotive cruise control, construction equipment, autopilot on airplanes, and countless other industrial applications. LÄS MER
35. Failure Monitoring and Asset Condition Assessment in Water Supply Systems
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, different aspects of failure management in urban water supply systems are discussed. As assets are getting older, the number of pipe failures is increasing and an efficient failure management strategy becomes important. LÄS MER
