1. Linear and Non-Linear Analysis of Plates and Shells by Use of Morley Finite Elements
Sammanfattning : The thesis deals with plate bending analysis and shell analysis in static linear and dynamic non-linear situations. The thesis contains two parts. In common for them is the use of the Germain-Kirchhoff plate theory, constant strain, constant curvature triangular plate elements and adaptive improvement of original solution. LÄS MER
2. Numerical Methods for Darcy Flow Problems with Rough and Uncertain Data
Sammanfattning : We address two computational challenges for numerical simulations of Darcy flow problems: rough and uncertain data. The rapidly varying and possibly high contrast permeability coefficient for the pressure equation in Darcy flow problems generally leads to irregular solutions, which in turn make standard solution techniques perform poorly.

3. High performance hybrid mixed elements using orthogonal stress interpolants and scaling of the higher order stiffness
Sammanfattning : During the evolution of the finite element method, formulations based on the principle of minimum potential energy have dominated the scene. These formulations employ an assumed displacement field within each element which must preserve continuity of displacements between adjacent elements. LÄS MER
4. Mechanical Behaviour of Adhesive Layers : Methods to Extract Peel and Mixed Mode Properties
Sammanfattning : Mechanical Behaviour of Adhesive Layers Methods to Extract Peel and Mixed Mode Properties TOBIAS ANDERSSON Department of Applied Mechanics Chalmers University of Technology ABSTRACT This thesis is concerned with methods to extract material properties of thin adhesive layers loaded in peel and in mixed mode. The first part of the thesis is devoted to an experimental method to determine the complete stress-elongation relation (or cohesive law) for an adhesive layer loaded in peel using the DCB-specimen.

5. Meso-Mechanical Modeling and Analysis of Adhesive Layers
Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with the modeling, simulation and analysis of adhesive layers. By use of an in situ scanning electron microscopy study it is found that the adhesive studied in the present thesis has a very complex structure with two different compounds, a mineral and an epoxy/thermoplastic blend.
