From university to industry - challenges in upscaling optical microstructures for daylight redirection in buildings

Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Josef Andreas Schuler, Philippe Couty

In this paper we present some of the challenges faced when upscaling optical microstructures from a lab scale 1x1 cm sized proof of concept sample to a square meter sized object that can be installed in a building. The optical microstructure in question is ...

Kinetics of mixing-water repartition in UHPFRC paste and its effect on hydration and microstructural development

Eugen Brühwiler, Karen Scrivener, Emmanuel Denarié, Arnaud Charles Albert Muller, Mohammadhadi Kazemi Kamyab

The hydration of an ultra-high performance fibre reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) paste with a water to cement ratio of 0.18 was followed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) alongside more classical techniques for hydration kinetics, and microstructu ...

Basic creep and autogenous shrinkage of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3)

Julien Ston

The use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) to lower the clinker factor of cements is now commonplace, for it benefits performance, economics and ecology. This thesis focuses on ternary blends of limestone and calcined kaolinitic clays, two very ...

Effect of laser rescanning on the grain microstructure of a selective laser melted Al-Mg-Zr alloy

Christian Leinenbach

The microstructures of alloys created via Additive Manufacturing (AM) can vary substantially from those present in cast or wrought products, due to the very rapid solidification associated with AM. While numerous studies have investigated the process-micro ...

Validation strategies for the interpretation of microstructure imaging using diffusion MRI

Giorgio Innocenti, Tim Bjørn Dyrby

Extracting microanatomical information beyond the image resolution of MRI would provide valuable tools for diagnostics and neuroscientific research. A number of mathematical models already suggest microstructural interpretations of diffusion MRI (dMRI) dat ...

The double-edge effect of second-phase particles on the recrystallization behaviour and associated mechanical properties of metallic materials

Roland Logé, Ke Huang

Most industrial alloys contain a matrix phase and dispersed second-phase particles. Several thermomechanical processing (TMP) steps are usually needed to produce a final product, during which recrystallization and its related phenomena may take place. Seco ...

Dissipative particle dynamics simulations of tri-block co-polymer and water: Phase diagram validation and microstructure identification

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

In this study, the phase diagram of Pluronic L64 and water is simulated via dissipative particle dynamics (DPD). The peculiar structures that form when the concentration varies from dilute to dense (i.e., spherical and rod-like micelles, hexagonal and lame ...

Mechanical properties of MC multimetallic carbides in steel

Lionel Michelet

Carbides constitute a class of materials used for many applications, where excellent mechanical properties, such as stiffness, hardness and fracture toughness, are required. The machining industry is a typical example where carbide are crucial materials. W ...

Towards microstructure fingerprinting: Estimation of tissue properties from a dictionary of Monte Carlo diffusion MRI simulations

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Gaëtan Olivier D Rensonnet, Benoît Macq

Many closed-form analytical models have been proposed to relate the diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) signal to microstructural features of white matter tissues. These models generally make assumptions about the tissue and the diffusio ...

Extracellular bacterial inactivation proceeding without Cu-ion release: Drastic effects of the applied plasma energy on the performance of the Cu-polyester (PES) samples

Michaël Bensimon, Sami Rtimi

The widely different effects of Cu-polyester (PES) sputtered by high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS) compared to the lower energy direct current magnetron sputtering (DCMS) leading to bacterial inactivation are addressed during the course of th ...

Polymer derived silicon oxycarbide ceramic monoliths: Microstructure development and associated materials properties

Demetri Psaltis, Eirini Kakkava, Nicola Casati, Giulia Panusa

Polymer derived SiOC and SiCN ceramics (PDCs) are interesting candidates for additive manufacturing techniques to develop micro sized ceramics with the highest precision. PDCs are obtained by the pyrolysis of crosslinked polymer precursors at elevated temp ...
