• Two Dimensional Fiber Bundle Bridge Model 

      Nygård, Håkon Tormodsen (Master thesis, 2016)
      The two dimensional fiber bundle bridge model is introduced, derived and studied for an uniform threshold distribution. The model is independent of history and has an adjustable effective range of interaction, which is ...
    • Variation of elastic energy shows reliable signal of upcoming catastrophic failure 

      Pradhan, Srutarshi; Kjellstadli, Jonas Tøgersen; Hansen, Alex (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      We consider the Equal-Load-Sharing Fiber Bundle Model as a model for composite materials under stress and derive elastic energy and damage energy as a function of strain. With gradual increase of stress (or strain) the ...
    • Waves Propagating on Fluids with Piecewise Constant Vorticity 

      Toften, Ståle (Master thesis, 2015)
      The purpose of this study was to find the dispersion relation for waves on an arbitrary current velocity profile approximated by N linear layers. Using a Stokes expansion to first order in the steepness parameter ka the ...
