A 3D nonlinear finite element analysis modelling framework was developed for simulating the behaviour of beams retrofitted with fibre reinforced polymer (FRP). The ABAQUS program was used for this purpose. Concrete was modelled using a plastic damage model. Steel bars were modelled as an elastic perfectly plastic material, with perfect bond between concrete and steel. A cohesive model was used for

According to the 6th chapter, section 2(a) of the Children and Parents code, the best interest of the child shall constitute the main consideration in the determination of all questions concerning custody, residence and contact. Part of the assessment of the best interest of the child, given due weight in accordance with the age and maturity of the child, shall be the views of the child in questio

This thesis discusses the provisions of the Rotterdam Rules on electronic transport records. Among the issues addressed are the current law on bills of lading and attempts at establishing systems issuing electronic bills of lading. The theses then goes on to discuss and analyse the provisions on electronic transport records in detail, their history and objective, along with related provisions on t

Den straffrättsliga regleringen av psykiskt störda lagöverträdare har varierat genom åren. Innan BrB trädde ikraft 1965 prövade domstolen psykiskt störda lagöverträdares tillräknelighet, men i samband med en omfattande straffrättsreform utmönstrades kravet på tillräknelighet. Sedan BrB trädde ikraft har straffrätten förändrats och flera utredningar om att återinföra tillräknelighet har publicerats

The environmental and social impacts from the textile value chain have resulted in increased interest and involvement from various stakeholders, one of which being local government. As a means to address the negative impacts of the textile industry, circular economy theory has been adopted by many stakeholders, often using the term ‘circular fashion.’ A critical component of circular fashion is a

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy has many advantages over optical, one of which is allowing us to see through intergalactic dust, letting us probe deeper into space and dust-dense regions such as galactic centers. However the investigating the IR spectral range is a relatively new field, owing to recent developments in detector technology, and stellar parameter determination in IR is not well researched

Forest fires are a danger both to society and to the climate. The forestry sector is an important and large element of Sweden’s economy, nature and landscape. Forest fires directly impact the economic viability of the forest industry and the people dependant on it. Forest fires also impact society, by necessitating measures to combat and prevent forest fires, and endangering human lives. A key par
