When creating finite element simulations, fasteners are often simplified or disregarded even though they are exposed to large loads and are reasons to cause failure in the model. Aimpoint AB produces electronic red dot sights that are exposed to high accelerations of at least 400G. The aim of this degree project is divided into two parts: develop and evaluate a test methodology for measuring strai

I och med att kommunerna ansvarar för mycket av den byggda miljön och informationBy all accounts, the global climate as well as the Swedish climate will become warmer for the foreseeable future, with consequences that have largely not been experienced before in northern countries. More intense and longer heat waves will become a more common phenomenon, and with that, Swedish municipalities need to be prepared for the effects. As municipalities are responsible for much of the b

Detta mot bakgrund av att Sverige dömdes för fördragsbrott av EU-domstolen år 2005, på grund av avsaknaden av reglering om dygnsvila i svensk arbetstidslagstiftning.
