Origami-inspired carbon fiber-reinforced composite sandwich materials - Fabrication and mechanical behavior

Thomas Keller, Yuntong Du

A folding fabrication method inspired by origami for carbon fiber-reinforced composites to fabricate three-dimensional structures is presented. PMI foams serve as substrates, making it possible to manufacture this kind of origami-inspired composite sandwic ...

Onset of sliding across scales: How the contact topography impacts frictional strength

Jean-François Molinari, Fabian Barras, Ramin Aghababaei

When two solids start rubbing together, frictional sliding initiates in the wake of slip fronts propagating along their surfaces in contact. This macroscopic rupture dynamics can be successfully mapped on the elastodynamics of a moving shear crack. However ...

The influence of the kinematics of rough surface engagement on the transfer of forces in cracked concrete

Miguel Fernández Ruiz

One of the most instrumental aspects governing the response of structural concrete at ultimate limit state refers to the possibility of developing smeared cracking patterns within a member (associated normally to the presence of sufficient reinforcement fo ...

Post-tensioning of glass beams: Analytical determination of the allowable pre-load

Alain Nussbaumer, Pieter Christian Louter, Jagoda Cupac

The effectiveness of post-tensioning in enhancing the fracture resistance of glass beams depends on the level of compressive pre-stress introduced at the glass edge surface that will in service be exposed to tensile stresses induced by bending. Maximum pre ...

Soil-structure interaction of surface footings

Lyesse Laloui, Cristiano Garbellini

Limit-state analysis of soil-structure interacting systems is a classical problem in theoretical and applied soil mechanics. Usually, the capacities of both components are evaluated separately. However, it is well known that soil-structure interaction play ...

Cyclic thermomechanical behaviour of pile-soil interface and design methods for energy pile foundations

Elena Ravera

Energy piles are shallow geothermal systems integrated into structures already required for structural functions of civil works that provide both geothermal energy supply and structural support to the built environments. This research work is driven by the ...

Efficient Bootstrapping for Approximate Homomorphic Encryption with Non-sparse Keys

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jean-Philippe Léonard Bossuat, Christian Vincent Mouchet, Juan Ramón Troncoso-Pastoriza

We present a bootstrapping procedure for the full-RNS variant of the approximate homomorphic-encryption scheme of Cheon et al., CKKS (Asiacrypt 17, SAC 18). Compared to the previously proposed procedures (Eurocrypt 18 & 19, CT-RSA 20), our bootstrapping pr ...

Variational phase-field continuum model uncovers adhesive wear mechanisms in asperity junctions

Jean-François Molinari, Sylvain Collet

Wear is well known for causing material loss in a sliding interface. Available macroscopic approaches are bound to empirical fitting parameters, which range several orders of magnitude. Major advances in tribology have recently been achieved via Molecular ...

Statistical Fatigue Investigation and Failure Prediction of a Healable Composite System

Véronique Michaud, Amaël Maximilien Cohades, Nathan Klaus Hostettler

Fiber reinforced polymers are massively used as an alternative to metals in structural applications. The brittle nature of their matrix, however, makes them more susceptible to crack formation and propagation resulting in costly repair operations and incre ...

Influence of cracking and rough surface properties on the transfer of forces in cracked concrete

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Max Tirassa

Aggregate interlocking is acknowledged as one of the most significant actions transferring shear forces in cracked concrete structures and has been investigated for several decades. Despite the many experimental programmes and previous efforts to develop m ...

Optimization of multi-directional fiber architecture for resistance and ductility of bolted FRP profile joints

Thomas Keller, Lulu Liu, Xin Wang

In view of the low structural efficiency of bolted joints in pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) profiles with mainly unidirectional (UD) fiber architecture, off-axis plies were considered as an effective way to improve bolted joint performance. An ex ...

A state of the art of flat-slab frame tests for gravity and lateral loading

Aurelio Muttoni, António Manuel Pinho Ramos

This paper presents a critical review of the state of the art of experimental research concerning the seismic response of reinforced concrete flat slab frames. After a summary of tests on connections, the paper examines tests carried out on frames with gra ...
