Behaviour of demountable shear connectors in composite structures
… in this thesis is to evaluate the feasibility of demountable shear connectors as an alternative to welded shear connectors in composite structures through push off tests and composite beam tests. Push off tests were conducted to examine the shear strength, stiffness and ductility of demountable …

Low Temperature Solder Demountable Joints for Non-Insulated, High Temperature Superconducting Fusion Magnets
… desirable that the toroidal field coils are demountable; this would also reduce the reactor downtime, when based on the tokamak and related magnetic fusion concepts. Compared to low temperature superconductors, high temperature superconductors have large cryogenic stability margins. In …

Design of demountable toroidal field coils with REBCO superconductors for a fusion reactor
… the magnet systems of tokamaks allows building demountable toroidal field (TF) coils, greatly simplifying reactor construction and maintenance. A demountable TF coil system with REBCO superconductors for a fusion reactor has been conceptually designed. The coil system operates at 20 K, with a …

Application of acoustic emission sensing for the non-destructive evaluation of advanced composite materials
… the AE detection system; fibre collimators and a demountable composite test section. The fibre collimators adjusted the optical path length in one of the arms of the interferometer to help maintain system sensitivity from test to test. The demountable test section ensured ease of testing, without …

Flexible stadium design in the context of Olympics and Post-Olympics usage
… London Olympic Stadium through features like a demountable second seating tier, reclaimed steel elements, and structurally isolated fagade, set a strong precedent for flexible Olympics stadium construction. The goal of this thesis is to quantitatively explore options to push the boundaries of …

Monumental Ephemerality
This thesis completes the process of making architecture. It is a small project designed and built full scale. The act of realizing this work of architecture offered opportunities and limitations that do not exist within the confines of a desk project but, I believe, ultimately produced a stronger …
