Impact of urban morphology on pressure coefficient on building facades and wind velocity in street canyons: The case of Oslo
(MABY;2020, Master thesis, 2020)This thesis aims to study how the pressure coefficients and wind velocity will vary within the city of Oslo, with changing urban morphology and aspect ratios. It is common in the modern society to erect high-rise buildings ... -
Impact of urban morphology on pressure coefficient on building facades and wind velocity in street canyons: The case of Oslo
(MABY;2021, Master thesis, 2021)By 2050 the number of people living in urban areas will be increased by 2.5 billion. To deal with such an inflow of people, cities will have to build taller, bigger, and denser. This will lead to a severe change in the ... -
Indoor environment in modern Norwegian buildings in connection with moisture-related parameters
(MABY;2021, Master thesis, 2021)The data collected for this thesis was real data measured in residential apartments. The focus and objective of this project was called healthy, energy-efficient urban home ventilation (NFR 2020-2024); where this thesis ... -
The influence of straight steel fibers on the fresh and mechanical properties of Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC)
(MABY;2022, Master thesis, 2022)This study investigated the effect of steel fiber and UHPC constituents on the fresh and mechanical properties. With the help of a systematic review and experimental program, the study shows that an increase in fiber content ... -
Installation analysis of a long floating pontoon bridge
(Master thesis, 2023)The Norwegian ferry free E39 project aims to cut the current travel time by half from Kristiansand in the south to Trondheim in the north. Crossing the Bjørnafjord, investigated in this thesis, using conventional pier ... -
Investigate the environmental impacts of adaptive reuse industrial heritage building and compare with other scenarios: Demolition and New construction
(MABY;2021, Master thesis, 2021)Nowadays, the environmental impact assessment is improved for new construction buildings. The European Commission targeted to achieve the 55% of carbon reduction in 2030 and 60% in 2050 compared to the 1990 carbon emission ... -
Life cycle assesment of floating offshore wind farms
(MABY;2022, Master thesis, 2022)Socio-economic conditions and environmental concerns induced the need of renewable energy. Α continued growth of wind energy sector and specifically for offshore wind turbines is observed globally. For reasons of wind ... -
Local buckling of welded I-sections in high strength steel subjected to axial compression
(MABY;2022, Master thesis, 2022)As a result of the continuous development in steel production there are at the time several grades of high strength steels (HSS). Due to this increase in strength, structures are potentially designed slenderer than before. ... -
Mechanical behaviour and the modelling of PVC foam
(MABY;2022, Master thesis, 2022)Foam materials are widely applied in many industrial fields due to their superior characteristics regarding high strength to weight ratio. Additionally, they may offer high toleration to damage and exceptional energy ... -
Mechanical reinforcement of cement pastes with Cellulose Acetate microfibers produced by electrospinning.
(Master thesis, 2023)Electrospun fibers have attracted much attention in various industries due to their distinctive qualities and possible uses, including construction. Electrospinning produces ultrafine fibers by exposing a polymer solution ... -
Modal identification and finite element model updating of railway bridges considering boundary conditions using artificial neural networks
(Master thesis, 2021)Two-part study, with the evaluation of the variation in modal identification of two railway bridges located in Northern Norway based on free decay responses after the passage of different types of trains. In addition, ... -
Modelling of crack initiation in fibre-reinforced injection moulded parts
(MABY;2022, Master thesis, 2022)This study addresses the effects of injection moulding weld lines and fibre orientation distributions on the mechanical properties of short fibre-reinforced thermoplastics (SFT). In this thesis, a literature review, as ... -
A new framework for long-term vibration-based SHM
