Thermo-hydro-mechanical behaviour of the Callovo-Oxfordian claystone under thermal changes

Underground storage of radioactive waste is consensually recognised as the safest storage solution by European and worldwide countries relying mainly or partially on nuclear energy production. Over twenty years of research led by the French national agency ...

Thermal management for gas lubricated, high-speed turbomachinery

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Wei Liu, Luis Eric Olmedo Ocampo, Wanhui Liu

High-speed turbomachinery is commonly designed to achieve high power densities. Limited space for active cooling results in a challenging thermal management. A thermal modeling approach leveraging modern declarative programming capabilities is presented, y ...

Calibration of ground surface albedo models

Christophe Ballif, Arttu Matias Tuomiranta

The emergence of bifacial photovoltaics as a serious option for large-scale power generation makes the accuracy of the in-situ estimation of ground surface albedo increasingly critical. Recent studies have evaluated the performance of different models but ...

Hot rocks: Constraining the thermal conditions of the Mistastin Lake impact melt deposits using zircon grain microstructures

Cyril Cayron

The production of superheated melt during hypervelocity impact events has been proposed to be a common occurrence on terrestrial planetary bodies. Recent direct evidence of superheated impact melt temperatures exceeding > 2370 degrees C from the Kamestasti ...

Evidence of extensive lunar crust formation in impact melt sheets 4,330 Myr ago

Cyril Cayron

Accurately constraining the formation and evolution of the lunar magnesian suite is key to understanding the earliest periods of magmatic crustal building that followed accretion and primordial differentiation of the Moon. However, the origin and evolution ...

Stitched shape memory alloy wires enhance damage recovery in self-healing fibre-reinforced polymer composites

Véronique Michaud, Amaël Maximilien Cohades, Nathan Klaus Hostettler

A major issue in composite technology is matrix micro-cracking due to low-velocity impact damage, which may severely limit service lifetimes of composite parts. In a novel approach, remarkable levels of healing of impact damage are obtained using shape mem ...

Experimental study of large scale plunging jets

Michael Pfister

The lack of knowledge regarding air entrainment caused by large jets in hydraulic structures, such as downstream Pelton turbines, has led EDF (Electricité de France) to carry out a test series to optimize the La Coche Power plant. The data extracted from t ...

Intra-particle dynamics and the impact response of granular chains

Alessandro Spadoni, Bart Van Damme

Low-frequency waves generated by an impact on an isostatic granular medium with vanishing confinement pressure are theorized to depend on rigid-particle collisions. According to this model, an impact generates a solitary wave spanning several particle diam ...

Cavitation in impacted drops and jets and the effect on erosion damage thresholds

Mohamed Farhat, Danail Obreschkow, Marc Tinguely

It is well known that metals and alloys erode at lower impact threshold velocities than expected. This was studied by Thomas and Brunton (1970) who reported “discrepancy factors” in the range 4–10. These authors suggested that liquid impact was a more sear ...

Active sensing and repair composites

This thesis describes the development of a smart carbon fibre polymer composite that is capable of sensing its own damage and self-healing. Structural composites are used in the aerospace and marine industries, for example. During their lifetime impact eve ...
