  1. 11. Failure of thinwalled structures under impact loading

    Författare :Salar Mostofizadeh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thinwalled shell structures; cohesive zone; phantom node method; ductile failure; XFEM;

    Sammanfattning : Thinwalled structures are widely used for different applications, e.g. maritime structures,vehicles, off-shore structures, aircraft fuselage, ship panels etc., and due to their applicationthey might be exposed to high strain rate loads as blast loads. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Numerical Modeling of Soot and NOx Formation in Non-Stationary Diesel Flames with Complex Chemistry

    Författare :Feng Tao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; soot and NOx formation; non-stationary Diesel sprays; complex chemistry; Diesel spray auto-ignition; reaction zone structure; Diesel flame liftoff; turbulence-chemistry interaction;

    Sammanfattning : A complex chemistry model of reduced size (65 species and 268 reactions) derived on the basis of n-heptane auto-ignition kinetics, small hydrocarbon oxidation chemistry, polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and NOx formation kinetics together with a phenomenological soot model has been implemented in the KIVA code for multidimensional Diesel spray combustion simulations. An EDC (Eddy Dissipation Concept) based partially stirred reactor model is used to handle the turbulence-chemistry interaction. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Särimner : a computer model for diabetes education

    Författare :Johan Hedbrant; Johnny Ludvigsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :diabetes mellitus; behandling; fysiologi; matematiska modeller; simulator; utbildning; utvärdering; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : In diabetes mellitus pancreas fails to produce insulin enough to maintain tissue utilisation of blood glucose. To maintain a normalised metabolism many diabetic patients have to provide insulin from injections or an infusion pump. The disease affects some percent of western population. LÄS MER

    Författare :Jukka Hyttinen; Lars Drugge; Jenny Jerrelind; James Busfield; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Truck tyre; PRF; filler-reinforced rubber; ambient temperature; rubber testing; constitutive modelling; parametrisation; rolling resistance; load cell; Fletcher-Gent effect; Payne effect; Lastbilsdäck; PRF; förstärkande fyllmedel; gummi; omgivningstemperatur; gummiprovning; konstitutiv modellering; parametrisering; rullmotstånd; lastcell; Fletcher-Gent effekt; Payne effekt; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Truck transport offers a versatile way to ship goods in regional, long haulage and urban applications. However, the heavy truck sector accounts for 6 % of total greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union. Therefore, there is a need for a substantial reduction of these emissions to secure the sustainability of Earth for future generations. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Modelling the time-dependent, damage and fracture mechanical properties of load-bearing soft biological tissues

    Författare :Christopher Miller; T. Christian Gasser; Anna Pandolfi; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solid Mechanics; Hållfasthetslära;

    Sammanfattning : Load-carrying soft biological tissues exhibit a wide range of complex time-dependent, damage, and fracture mechanical properties. An effective comprehension of such behaviour is advantageous in characterising tolerance to injury and can provide valuable insights regarding the incidence and progression of certain diseases.
