Open-source implementations and comparison of explicit and implicit crystal-plasticity finite element methods
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2025)In this study, two state-of-the-art implementations of the rate-dependent Crystal Plasticity Finite Element Method (CPFEM) as user material subroutines in the finite element solvers Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/Standard ... -
Matching algorithms to assist in designing with reclaimed building elements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Reuse of building components is one of the recommended circular strategies to reduce the environmental impact of new buildings. However, reclaimed building components are more difficult to design with than new products. ... -
Railway Catenary Condition Monitoring: A Systematic Mapping of Recent Research
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)In this paper, a different approach to the traditional literature review—literature systematic mapping—is adopted to summarize the progress in the recent research on railway catenary system condition monitoring in terms ... -
Arbitrary 3D multi-body road vehicle modeling for vehicle-infrastructure interaction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2025)The impact of road vehicle loads on road infrastructure has become increasingly significant due to growing freight traffic in most countries. The traffic loads caused by heavy trucks depend on the vehicle types, configurations, ... -
Hydration of Composite Cements Containing Novel SCMs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The impact of novel supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) on the phase assemblage and the pore structure in cement pastes was studied and linked to their impact on the compressive strength in mortar. The composite ... -
Cathodic Protection of Marine Prestressed Concrete Bridges – Review of Case Studies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Reinforcement corrosion is the main deterioration mechanism in marine exposed reinforced concrete structures. Recent investigations show that not only the ordinary reinforcement, but also prestressed tendons might be ... -
Detecting lateral track irregularities by onboard measurements of lateral acceleration and displacements and machine learning algorithms
(Journal article, 2024)Understanding the development of track defects, which can have a significant impact on the safety of train operations, is one of the most crucial responsibilities for railway engineers. Analysing track geometry (TG) ... -
Ductile failure by strain localisation: A computational study of materials and structures subjected to highly non-proportional load histories

Numerical and experimental analysis of one- and two-sided moment-resisting timber connection using threaded rods and steel coupling parts
(Master thesis, 2022)This master’s thesis is a part of the research project WOOD frame SOLutions for free space design in urban buildings. The research carried out in this thesis aims to contribute to the development of a moment-resisting ... -
An extended Rice model for intergranular fracture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)The plastic events occurring during the process of intergranular fracture in metals is still not well understood due to the complexity of grain boundary (GB) structures and their interactions with crack-tip dislocation ... -
NDT methods and sensors for existing concrete structures. Literature review

Improved decision support for bridge safety assessment and maintenance by probabilistic methods
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2025:31, Doctoral thesis, 2025)When assessing the safety of existing bridges, uncertainties, information, and consequences are different compared to the design stage. Higher-level verification formats, such as probabilistic and risk-based methods, may ... -
Experimental and Structural Basis for Analysis and Assessment of Concrete Structures exposed to Alkali- Silica Reactions
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:487, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is a deterioration mechanism in concrete that is caused by chemical reactions between alkali-reactive aggregates (SiO2) and alkalis in the pore water in the cement paste (Na+, K+). The reaction ... -
Characterisation of global and regional mitral annular strains in an acute porcine model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore regional mitral annular strain using a novel computational method. METHODS: Eight pigs underwent implantation with piezoelectric transducers around the mitral annulus. Interventions ... -
Distribution of Corrosion Attack in Chloride Exposed Concrete – Summary of Field Observations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Reinforcement corrosion is the main deterioration mechanism in chloride-exposed reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Depending on the moisture level, corrosion might initiate when aggressive agents like chloride ions reach ... -
Imprecise structural reliability analysis of steel railway bridges using p-boxes and a fatigue probabilistic approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Imprecise Structural Reliability Analysis (ISRA) is a novel and promising field in structural reliability. This work develops and introduces a framework for ISRA applied to steel railway bridges. The classical methods for ...
