1. Controlling the Roll Responses of PCTC's
Sammanfattning : Modern Panamax Pure Car and Truck Carriers (PCTC) have become more vulnerable to critical roll responses as built in margins have been traded against increased transport efficiency. The research presented in this licentiate thesis aims at enhancing the predictability and control of these critical roll responses. LÄS MER
2. Controlling the Roll Responses of Volume Carriers
Sammanfattning : Modern volume carriers such as container vessels, cruise ships and Pure Car and Truck Carriers (PCTC’s) have become more vulnerable to critical roll responses as built in margins have been traded against increased transport efficiency. The research presented in this doctoral thesis aims at enhancing the predictability and control of these critical roll responses. LÄS MER
3. Probabilistic Analysis and Reliability of Engineering Structures
Sammanfattning : This thesis, consisting of six papers, concerns methods for probabilistic analysis of engineering structures. The work comprises evaluations of available methods, developments of new and improved methods, and applications of probabilistic analysis to engineering structures. LÄS MER
4. Parametric FE-modelling of non-linear racking behaviour of light-frame shear walls and modules used for multi-storey timber buildings
Sammanfattning : Wood is a sustainable material from nature that has a longstanding traditionas a building material. Compared to other construction materials, such as steeland concrete, the significance of using structural timber and engineered wood products has increased in recent years because they are regarded as a renewable source and require a low carbon footprint and less energy consumption during production.

5. Stabilising system for multi-storey beam and post timber buildings
Sammanfattning : For multi-storey timber buildings, the stabilisation against horizontal loads is one of the key issues, which becomes more severe with height. There are a few main concepts utilised to resist lateral forces; shear wall action, diagonal bracing, and frame action. LÄS MER
