1. Wave propagation in rock and the influence of discontinuities
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns wave propagation in rock as a tool for determination of rockproperties and as a consequence of activities, such as trains.Using waves as a tool often means that rock properties are determined or the interior of a sample is studied without being damaged. LÄS MER
2. Synthesis and Characterization of MgA1ON-BN refractories
Sammanfattning : In order to meet the need of metallurgical industry in the world, a new MgAlON-BN composite which can be used for example in special refractory nozzles, tubes and break rings for the continuous casting of steel was studied in the present thesis. The aim was to understand the mechanism of synthesis and their physicochemical properties during the application. LÄS MER
3. Micromechanics approach to stiffness characterization of woven composites
Sammanfattning : Thesis consider the stiffness of woven composites, methods of its calculation and stiffness reduction due to damage accumulation during the service. First, reliable methods for stiffness calculation of undamaged woven composites are considered. There are a large amount of simple approximate methods available in literature. LÄS MER
4. Deformation and failure of brittle rocks under compression
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the deformation and failure of rocks under compression through a micromechanics model and laboratory studies of the Kaiser effect. It comprises an overview and seven appended papers. The deformation model is developed based on the analysis of the behaviour of microcracks. LÄS MER
5. Oxidation, Creep and Fatigue Synergies in Cast Materials for Exhaust Manifolds
Sammanfattning : The future development of engines of heavy-duty vehicles towards reduced CO2 emission will increase the exhaust gas temperature and render the exhaust atmosphere more corrosive. The current service material of exhaust gas components - a ferritic ductile cast iron called SiMo51 - will soon meet its upper-temperature limit. LÄS MER
