LeXPLORE: A floating laboratory on Lake Geneva offering unique lake research opportunities

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Natacha Pasche, Sébastien Lavanchy, Sébastien Manuel Lavanchy

Environmental sciences depend heavily on observational data. Successful studies of ecological processes in lakes require in-situ data that cover the relevant temporal scales from milliseconds to entire seasons. Temporal and spatial coverage requirements re ...

Experimental determination of the permeability of textiles: A benchmark exercise

Véronique Michaud, Wei Wu, Sébastien Lavanchy

In this international permeability benchmark exercise, in-plane permeability data for two reinforcement fabrics, obtained using a total of 16 different experimental procedures, were compared. Although, for each procedure, the results appear consistent, dif ...

Spatial Variability of Turbulent Mixing From an Underwater Glider in a Large, Deep, Stratified Lake

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Sébastien Lavanchy, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner, Bieito Fernandez Castro, Sébastien Manuel Lavanchy

Recent efforts using microstructure turbulence measurements have contributed to our understanding of the overall energy budget in lakes and linkages to vertical fluxes. A paucity of lake-wide turbulence measurements hinders our ability to assess how repres ...

Influence of the mould thermal expansion on composite stress build-up during curing

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Véronique Michaud, Sébastien Lavanchy

The influence of the mould material on the build-up of internal stresses during autoclave cure of a unidirectional carbon fibre composite material was investigated using embedded optical fibre Bragg gratings. Four flat moulds (i.e. aluminium, steel, carbon ...

Experimental investigation of the effect of the mould thermal expansion on the development of internal stresses during carbon fibre composite processing

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, René Salathé, Véronique Michaud, Sébastien Lavanchy

The influence of the mould material on the build-up of internal stresses during autoclave cure of carbon fibre composites was investigated using embedded optical fibre Bragg gratings. Unidirectional and cross-ply laminates were cured on four flat moulds: a ...
