Directionality-Aware Design of Embroidery Patterns

Embroidery is a long-standing and high-quality approach to making logos and images on textiles. Nowadays, it can also be performed via automated machines that weave threads with high spatial accuracy. A characteristic feature of the appearance of the threa ...

Multi-scale characterization and modeling of notched strength and translaminar fracture in hybrid thin-ply composites based on different carbon fiber grades

Guillaume Clément Broggi

Owing to their high specific stiffness and strength, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Composites (CFRP) are ideal candidates for the development of lightweight high-performance structures. Within this family, thin-ply composites allow for wider design freedom and p ...

Fiber pumps for wearable fluidic systems

Herbert Shea, Vito Cacucciolo, Michael James Henry Smith

Incorporating pressurized fluidic circuits into textiles can enable muscular support, thermoregulation, and haptic feedback in a convenient wearable form factor. However, conventional rigid pumps, with their associated noise and vibration, are unsuitable f ...

Strategies for faster impregnation in melt thermoplastic resin transfer molding process

Damiano Salvatori

Continuous fiber thermoplastic composites are potential substitutes of steel in structural automotive components, since they combine fiber strength and rigidity with ductility, potential recyclability and low density of the thermoplastic (TP) matrix. Resin ...

All‐Fabric Wearable Electroadhesive Clutch

Dario Floreano, Jun Shintake, Vivek Ramachandran

A lightweight, textile fabricated, haptic device consisting of an electrostatic adhesive clutch is introduced, which can constrain body movement when activated at low power (≈1 mW). The clutch electrodes are composite structures, prepared by coating copper ...

Permeability of textile fabrics with spherical inclusions

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar

We investigated the effect of rigid spherical inclusions such as microcapsules and fillers on the permeability of fabrics by using glass beads as model inclusions. Beads with a range of diameters (40-800 mu m) and volume fractions (2.5-10%) were sieved bet ...

Fracture of thin-ply composites : effects of ply thickness

Guillaume Frossard

The demand for carbon/epoxy laminated composites is continuously increasing due to their high specific modulus and strength. Among them, laminates made of particularly thin layers (from t=0.015 to 0.150 mm) and called thin-ply composites are gaining in int ...

Oligonucleotide Immobilization and Hybridization on Aldehyde-Functionalized Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) Brushes

Harm-Anton Klok, Tugba Bilgiç Tune

DNA biosensing requires high oligonudeotide binding capacity interface chemistries that can be tuned to maximize probe presentation as well as hybridization efficiency. This contribution investigates the feasibility of aldehyde-functionalized poly(2-hydrox ...

Dynamic mechanical properties of epoxy/flax fibre composites

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Fabien Duc

The mechanical and damping properties were measured for unidirectional, 0/90 and twill 2/2 flax fibre (FF) composites containing 40 vol% of fibres in an epoxy matrix. All composites were processed by resin transfer moulding. The influence of the impregnati ...

SFRC flat slabs punching behaviour - Experimental research

Duarte Miguel Viúla Faria

The use of randomly distributed steel fibres in the concrete mix improves its mechanical properties. In the particular case of a flat slab-column connection, this solution can provide slabs with an increased load capacity and deformation capacity, allowing ...

Assessment of semi-impregnated fabrics in honeycomb sandwich structures

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Véronique Michaud

Semi-impregnated fabrics, or semipregs, are fabrics alternating dry and resin impregnated areas along the fibre bed surface. Due to their increased initial through thickness permeability to gas flow, these could constitute an alternative to prepreg in the ...

Resin transfer moulding of complex shaped composites using carbon fibre non-crimp fabrics

Julien Verrey

In automotive engineering, the main load bearing structure (Body-in-White, BIW) has traditionally been manufactured using metals such as steel and light alloys. In order to satisfy upcoming European regulations on CO2 emissions, considerable weight reducti ...
