Fluid flow through microcracked and fractured granitic reservoirs

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Michael Heap, Lucille Jocelyne Nadine Carbillet

The permeability of crustal rocks and rock-masses dictates the efficiency of hydrothermal circulation and therefore the productivity of geothermal resources. In this study, we find by monitoring P-wave velocity that thermal microcracking in Lanhélin granit ...

The influence of water-saturation on the strength of volcanic rocks and the stability of lava domes

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Michael Heap

The rocks forming a volcanic edifice or dome are typically saturated or partially-saturated with water. However, most experiments aimed at better understanding the mechanical behaviour of volcanic rocks have been performed on dry samples, and therefore mos ...

Towards instability-free welded moment connections

Dimitrios Lignos, Andronikos Skiadopoulos

In capacity-designed steel moment resisting frames (MRFs), inelastic deformations are mostly concentrated in the steel beams and the column fixed ends of the first story, while the participation of the panel zones in energy dissipation is limited. In such ...

Automatic and high-precision microseismic monitoring of progressive failure prior, during, and after tunnel excavation

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Seyyedmaalek Momeni, Christophe Nussbaum

Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring is commonly used to inspect the health of a structure continuously. During fracture processes elastic waves of AE are created and emitted, and sensors can capture these waves. The acquired signals can be processed to track ...

Seismic Testing of Adjacent Interacting Masonry Structures

Katrin Beyer, Igor Tomic

Masonry buildings form building aggregates around the world in historical centers, which developed as the layout of the city or village densified. In these aggregates, adjacent buildings can share structural walls, connected at the interfaces by interlocki ...

Automatic and high-precision acoustic emission-based structural health monitoring of concrete structures

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Seyyedmaalek Momeni

Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring is a useful technique to monitor the health of a structure continuously, helping to prevent potential failure. AE are elastic waves produced and emitted during fracture processes inside a material and are recorded by senso ...

Welded moment connections with highly dissipative panel zones for enhanced seismic performance of steel moment frames

Andronikos Skiadopoulos

Research conducted after the 1994 Northridge earthquake in the U.S. and the 1995 Kobe earthquake in Japan led to the development of today's pre-qualified beam-to-column connections for capacity-designed steel moment resisting frames (MRFs). Welded moment c ...

Study of Thin Film LiNbO3 Laterally Excited Bulk Acoustic Resonators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Soumya Yandrapalli, Hüseyin Baris Atakan

This work presents an in-depth study of simulation and measurement results of laterally excited shear bulk acoustic resonators (XBAR) in Lithium Niobate, at 5 GHz with high electromechanical coupling factor (k(t)(2)) as high as 25%, and with impedances at ...

Bifurcations at the Stability Transition of Earthquake Faulting

Carolina Giorgetti

Tectonic faults typically break in a single rupture mode within the range of styles from slow slip to dynamic earthquake failure. However, in increasingly well-documented instances, the same fault segment fails in both slow and fast modes within a short pe ...

Effect of Fe-enrichment on seismic properties of perovskite and post-perovskite in the deep lower mantle

Susannah McGregor Dorfman

Recent experimental measurements of the equation of state of perovskites and post-perovskites in the (Mg,Fe)SiO3 and (Mg,Fe,Al)(Fe,Al,Si)O-3 systems over a wide range of iron contents are used to constrain the effects of Fe and Al on density and bulk modul ...

Experimental investigations on welded double lap joints composed of timber

Yves Weinand, Till Vallée, Bernhard Stamm, Benjamin Hahn

Fabrication of wood-to-wood connections by means of friction welding is an relatively new process holding high potential for development. To connect wooden pieces by means of friction welding, they are initially pressed against each other. The rapid moveme ...
