Presentations in “Applied Solid Mechanics”

On March 3rd 2016, six teams of mechanical engineering students presented their projects within the course “Applied Solid Mechanics”. In this course, students have learned how to find appropriate dimensions and loading of constructions that are affected by fatigue stresses or are joined by welds, and also how to choose safety values by considering the […]

The quadratically cubic Burgers equation: an exactly solvable nonlinear model for shocks, pulses and periodic waves

ABSTRACT A modified equation of Burgers type with a quadratically cubic (QC) nonlinear term was recently pointed out as a new exactly solvable model of mathematical physics. However, its derivation, analytical solution, computer modeling, as well as its physical applications and analysis of corresponding nonlinear wave phenomena have not been published up to now. The […]

Studentsamarbete kring social inkludering

Aktiviteter är nu i full fart inom ERUF-projektet “Social Inkludering och Tillväxt i Blekinge”. I höst ska studenter inom kursen “Värdeinnovation” arbeta med arbetsintegrerade sociala företag för att etablera och/eller vidareutveckla hållbara affärsidéer. Projektet ledas av Coompanion Blekinge och engagerar bland annat Karlskrona, Karlshamn och Ronneby kommun, Arbetsförmedlingen, Försäkringskassan samt KFH Karlskrona Företags- och Hantverksförening.

On the Shaker Simulation of Wind-Induced Non-Gaussian Random Vibration

ABSTRACT Gaussian signal is produced by ordinary random vibration controllers to test the products in the laboratory, while the field data is usually non-Gaussian. Two methodologies are presented in this paper for shaker simulation of wind-induced non-Gaussian vibration. The first methodology synthesizes the non-Gaussian signal offline and replicates it on the shaker in the Time […]

A nonlinear screen as an element for sound absorption and frequency conversion systems

ABSTRACT The paper discusses a model for a screen with dissipative and nonlinear elastic properties that can be used in acoustic sound absorption and frequency conversion systems. Calculation and estimation schemes are explained that are necessary for understanding the functional capabilities of the device. Examples of the nonlinear elements in the screen and promising applications […]
