Spatial variability in longitudinal elastic modulus of clear timber

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Alireza Farajzadeh Moshtaghin

Different factors such as age, location of timber within the tree, structural imperfections, load history such as wind and snow etc. can affect the material properties of timber taken from the same species, and grown in the same geographical location and l ...

Piezoresistive AFM cantilevers surpassing standard optical beam deflection in low noise topography imaging

Georg Fantner, Jonathan David Adams, Maja Dukic Pjanic

Optical beam deflection (OBD) is the most prevalent method for measuring cantilever deflections in atomic force microscopy (AFM), mainly due to its excellent noise performance. In contrast, piezoresistive strain-sensing techniques provide benefits over OBD ...

Influence of boundary conditions and size effect on the drift capacity of URM walls

Katrin Beyer, Sarah Petry

In codes the drift capacity of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls is often estimated as a function of the failure mode and the aspect ratio. The empirical relationships are based on results from quasi-static cyclic tests on single URM walls, which were teste ...

Polymeric variable optical attenuators based on magnetic sensitive stimuli materials

Jürgen Brugger, Victor Javier Cadarso Busto

Magnetically-actuable, polymer-based variable optical attenuators (VOA) are presented in this paper. The design comprises a cantilever which also plays the role of a waveguide and the input/output alignment elements for simple alignment, yet still renderin ...

Creep behaviour of sandwich panels with rigid polyurethane foam core and glass-fibre reinforced polymer faces: Experimental tests and analytical modelling

Thomas Keller

This paper presents experimental and analytical investigations about the creep behaviour of sandwich panels comprising glass-fibre reinforced polymer faces and rigid polyurethane foam core for civil engineering applications. A full-scale sandwich panel was ...

Cell force measurements in 3D microfabricated environments based on compliant cantilevers

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Mattia Marelli

We report the fabrication, functionalization and testing of microdevices for cell culture and cell traction force measurements in three-dimensions (3D). The devices are composed of bent cantilevers patterned with cell-adhesive spots not lying on the same p ...
