Vibrational NDT with Under-sampled Data through Physics-informed Neural Networks

Olga Fink

The vibrational response of solid materials and structural components is substantially governed by their mechanical and geometrical properties. Low-frequency vibrations and modal frequencies are sensitive to global geometrical deviations, while high-freque ...

Seismic vulnerability assessment of free-standing massive masonry columns by the 3D Discrete Element Method

Jinwoo Kim

Free-standing masonry column is a recurrent typology of built cultural heritage. Usually raised without seismic design, columns are subject to intense rocking and overturning under strong ground motions. In this paper, a strategy to assess their seismic vu ...

Seismic analyses of the Double Closure Plate Sub-Plate for the ITER Electron Cyclotron Upper Launcher during the Vacuum Vessel baking scenario

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Avelino Mas Sanchez, Matteo Vagnoni, Phillip Miguel Santos Silva

The Double Closure Plate Sub-Plate (DCPSP) was introduced in the Electron Cyclotron Upper Launcher (EC UL) design in order to minimize the openings exposing the interior of the Port Plug (PP) to the port cell; avoiding thus the near environment activation ...

Dynamic impedance spectroscopy using dynamic multi-frequency analysis: A theoretical and experimental investigation

Alberto Battistel

Dynamic impedance spectroscopy is a powerful tool to investigate the temporal development of reaction kinetics in electrochemical systems, where the reactive species may undergo irreversible changes during the measurement. In this work we redefined dynamic ...

Monitoring of composite structures using a network of integrated PVDF film transducers

Thomas Gmür, Joël Cugnoni, Enrique René Guzman Solares

Aiming to reduce costs, polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) film patches are an emerging alternative to more classic piezoelectric technologies, like ceramic patches, as transducers to measure local deformation in many structural applications. This choice is ...

Loading protocols for European regions of low to moderate seismicity

Katrin Beyer, Panagiotis Mergos

Existing loading protocols for quasi-static cyclic testing of structures are based on recordings from regions of high seismicity. For regions of low to moderate seismicity they overestimate imposed cumulative damage demands. Since structural capacities are ...

Characterisation of Low Impact Energy Induced Damage in Composite Plates with Embedded Optical Sensors

Jeannot Frieden

Fibre reinforced materials are increasingly employed in aerospace, naval and civil structures because of their low weight and high specific strength and stiffness. A major concern is the inherent susceptibility of composite laminates to barely visible dama ...

Vibration-based characterization of impact induced delamination in composite plates using embedded FBG sensors and numerical modelling

John Botsis, Joël Cugnoni, Jeannot Frieden

Dynamic strain signals from embedded fiber Bragg grating sensors are used for experimental modal analysis in carbon fiber reinforced polymer plates. Throughout a series of impact tests, the change of eigen-frequencies due to damage is evaluated for differe ...

Modal behavior of a reduced scale pump-turbine impeller. Part 1: Experiments

François Avellan, Mohamed Farhat

An experimental investigation has been carried out to quantify the effects of surrounding fluid on the modal behavior of a reduced scale pump-turbine impeller. The modal properties of the fluid-structure system have been obtained by Experimental Modal Anal ...

Identification modale numérique-expérimentale des propriétés élastiques et dissipatives de matériaux composites

Marco Matter

Composite materials undoubtedly belong to one of the most studied classes of materials nowadays. In order to model the behaviour of mechanical structures made of this type of materials, it is necessary to know their constitutive properties. The varieties o ...

Modal parameter identification for a GFRP pedestrian bridge

Thomas Keller, Yu Bai

Dynamic experiments were conducted on an all-FRP composite pedestrian bridge. The structure was excited by impact and human-induced vibrations. The peak-picking method and stochastic subspace identification method were used to extract structural dynamic ch ...

Learning Multi-Modal Dictionaries

Pierre Vandergheynst, Rémi Gribonval, Gianluca Monaci, Philippe Jost

Real-world phenomena involve complex interactions between multiple signal modalities. As a consequence, humans are used to integrate at each instant perceptions from all their senses in order to enrich their understanding of the surrounding world. This par ...

Identification par recalage modal et fréquentiel des propriétés constitutives de coques en matériaux composites

Joël Cugnoni

Fibre-reinforced composites are being increasingly used as alternatives for conventional materials primarily because of their high strength, specific stiffness, light weight and adjustable properties. However, before using this type of material with confid ...

Bayesian Networks Based Multimodality Fusion for Error Handling in Human-Robot Dialogues Under Noisy Conditions

Andrzej Drygajlo, Plamen Prodanov

In this paper, we introduce probabilistic model based architecture for error handling in human–robot spoken dialogue systems under adverse audio conditions. In this architecture, a Bayesian network framework is used for interpretation of multi-modal signal ...
