Additive manufacturing (AM) is a modern technology that can produce parts from a 3D model by iteratively building the part layer by layer. Some of the benefits of using AM are reduced delivery times, storage needs, and ...

Many of the railway bridges in Norway and the rest of the world are closing in on the end of their predicted service life, and the need for more precise fatigue life assessments and predictions is challenging for the railway ...

Valg av løsninger vil være en sentral del av alle byggeprosjekter og ut ifra hvilken entrepriseform som velges vil påvirkningsgraden være av varierende art for de involverte partene. I denne oppgaven er det valgt å fokusere ...

Finland Sweden and Norway lose out on a lot of potential tax money due to the shadow economy in the construction industry. Workers employed within companies such as these work with bad working conditions and lose the right ...

Structures under cyclic loading are typically subjected to formation of cracks, and thereafter crack propagation. To be able to analyse the crack propagation numerically with the goal of estimating a structure or a structural ...

This thesis presents the theoretical foundation for reusing steel from decommissioned offshore structures in onshore construction projects as a green alternative to new production steel. This would open up a new source of ...

This thesis was written in collaboration with Global Maritime (GM), and its aim is to compare two geometrically different structural joints on an offshore fish farm, named GM Aqua Design. The two models are compared on ...

This thesis focuses on the design, fabrication, and analysis of an aluminum truss bridge. The bridge was designed using theoretical and numerical methods, and then physically fabricated for experimental testing. The results ...

In contrast to the traditional ways of subtractive manufacturing, additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, adapts computer-aided design to iteratively build the component or part layer by layer. The technology ...
