Monitoring of Torque Induced Strain in Composite Shafts with Embedded and Surface-Mounted Optical Fiber Bragg Gratings

John Botsis, Georgios Violakis, Georgios Pappas

In this study, silica glass, optical fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are used for torque-induced strain monitoring in carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) hollow shafts toward the development of a methodology for structural load monitoring. Optical fibers wi ...

Flexural behaviour of post-tensioned glass beams: Experimental and analytical study of three beam typologies

Alain Nussbaumer, Pieter Christian Louter, Jagoda Cupac

The concept of post-tensioned glass beams builds on the concrete analogy of the reinforced glass beams. By additionally prestressing the reinforcement in a post-tensioned system, a compressive pre-stress is applied on the glass, enhancing the initial fract ...

Review of hybrid composites fatigue

Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Dharun Vadugappatty Srinivasan

Hybrid composites become popular and are today used in a large number of contemporary structural applications. When compared to non-hybrid composites, hybridization offers additional benefits since the mixing of cheaper, low-quality fibers, with more expen ...

Static and dynamic mechanical properties of nanosilica and multiwalled carbon nanotube reinforced acrylonitrile butadiene styrene composites: theoretical mechanism of nanofiller reinforcement

Thomas Keller, Harish Mohan Thettemmel

Experimental and theoretical approaches were employed to analyze the static and dynamic mechanical properties of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) nanocomposites reinforced with multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and nanosilica. Enhanced stiffness and ...

Out-of-plane permeability measurement for reinforcement textiles: A benchmark exercise

Véronique Michaud, Amaël Maximilien Cohades, Damiano Salvatori, Baris Çaglar

The out-of-plane permeability of two glass fibre fabrics was measured by 26 institutions using silicone oil as a test fluid. Participants in this study were free to select the test procedure, specimen dimensions and data analysis method, provided that test ...

Computational micromechanics of porous brittle solids

Henning Löwe, Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Lars Kristoffer Uhlen Blatny, Stephanie Wang

Porous brittle solids evidence complex mechanical behavior, where localized failure patterns originate from mechanical processes on the microstructural level. In order to investigate the failure mechanics of porous brittle solids, we outline a general stoc ...

Effect of the mineralogical composition on the elastoplastic hydromechanical response of Opalinus Clay shale

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Eleonora Crisci

Opalinus Clay is the shale currently under investigation as the host formation for geological radioactive waste disposal in Switzerland. Its hydromechanical response has been widely studied, and the experimental results show a range of values whose dispers ...

Kinematic and mechanical response of dry woven fabrics in through-thickness compression: Virtual fiber modeling with mesh overlay technique and experimental validation

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Lode Geeraard Daelemans

The through-thickness compressive behavior of fabric reinforcements is crucial in liquid composite molding manufacturing processes. Predictive simulations of the compressive response are thus necessary to enable a virtual processing workflow. These are com ...

Deformational behavior and damage mechanism of R-UHPFRC beam subjected to fatigue loading

Eugen Brühwiler, Bartlomiej Wojciech Sawicki, Antoine Bassil

The fatigue behavior of a reinforced UHPFRC (Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cementitious composite) T-shaped beam under four-point bending is investigated. The beam was subjected to a fatigue loading range equal to 49% of the static resistance and ...
