Control of intermetallics in the interface in directed energy deposition of titanium on stainless steel 316L

Application of a single metal or alloy is often restricted by its properties from optimal combination of performance and cost. Therefore, there is a vast need of joining dissimilar metals for various applications in biomedical, aerospace, automobile and ma ...

Experiments and proposed model for residual stresses in hot-rolled wide flange shapes

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Dimitrios Lignos, Andronikos Skiadopoulos

This paper proposes a new residual stress model for hot-rolled wide flange steel cross sections. For this purpose, a dataset of 85 residual stress measurements is first assembled. The dataset is comprised of prior measurements available in the literature t ...

Splitting probabilities and mean first-passage times across multiple thresholds of jump-and-drift transition paths

Paolo Perona, Giulio Calvani

We apply the stochastic-trajectory analysis to derive exact expressions for the mean first passage times of jump-and-drift transition paths across two or more consecutive thresholds. We perform the analysis of the crossing statistics in terms of dimensionl ...

A Wide-Frequency-Tuning Micro-Loop-Gap Resonator for Miniature Rubidium Vapor-Cell Atomic Frequency Standards

Anja Skrivervik, Yuanyan Su

To miniaturize the double-resonance (DR) rubidium (Rb) vapor-cell atomic clocks, a new type of micro-loop-gap microwave resonator (mu-LGR) is proposed for TE011-like mode where the magnetic field inside the cavity is homogeneous and oriented along its long ...

Strategies for energy-efficient frontal polymerisation processing and microstructural evaluation of fibre reinforced composites

Jacobus Gerardus Rudolph Staal

Liquid composite moulding methods are widely applied for manufacturing of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites and consist of two main stages: impregnation of fibrous reinforcements by a liquid monomer resin and curing of this resin. This thesis work ...

Visualization and modelling of dynamic flow in fibrous preforms for liquid composite molding

Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

Nowadays, Liquid Composite Molding techniques are often used to manufacture high quality fiber reinforced composite parts at a relatively low cost. These involve an infiltration process, in which a liquid resin is forced to ingress into a dry fibrous porou ...

An Overview of Heterogeneous Catalysts Based on Hypercrosslinked Polystyrene for the Synthesis and Transformation of Platform Chemicals Derived from Biomass

Lioubov Kiwi

Platform chemicals, also known as chemical building blocks, are substances that serve as starting materials for the synthesis of various value-added products, which find a wide range of applications. These chemicals are the key ingredients for many fine an ...

Sustainable polyesters via direct functionalization of lignocellulosic sugars

Yves Leterrier, Véronique Michaud, François Maréchal, Jeremy Luterbacher, Harm-Anton Klok, Graham Reid Dick, Adrien Julien Demongeot, Christèle Rayroud, Maxime Alexandre Clément Hedou, Thibault Rambert

The development of sustainable plastics from abundant renewable feedstocks has been limited by the complexity and efficiency of their production, as well as their lack of competitive material properties. Here we demonstrate the direct transformation of the ...

Thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of basalt-phenolic FRP rebars under high temperature

Thomas Keller, Hongwei Zhu, Ting Li, Jiahui Shen

An experimental investigation was conducted on the thermophysical and thermomechanical properties of phenolic-basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (P-BFRP) rebars subjected to high temperature. As a comparison, vinylBFRP (V-BFRP) and epoxy-BFRP (E-BFRP) rebars ...
