Damage-tolerant behavior of structural epoxies with thin PEI and PVDF interlayers

Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Dharun Vadugappatty Srinivasan

This work examines the crack-arresting capability of PEI and PVDF thermoplastic interlayers in short-glass fiber modified and core-shell rubber toughened epoxy materials under mode-I fracture loading. Experimental results show that the initial crack can be ...

The nature of carbon deposits and their formation pathways during catalytic supercritical water gasification of glycerol

Christopher Marc Hunston

Supercritical water gasification (SCWG) is a promising technology to convert wet biomass to renewable natural gas. The present study sheds light on the chemical composition and the formation mechanism of coke deposits on a Ru/CNF catalyst during continuous ...

Building structures made of reused cut reinforced concrete slabs and walls: A case study

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Maléna Bastien Masse, Nicole Widmer

Reuse of reinforced concrete (RC) components reduces construction’s environmental impacts and waste. Rather than crushing the concrete of an obsolete structure, its components are saw cut and later reassembled in a new structure. The theoretical feasibilit ...

Steel Sheet Sheathed Cold-Formed Steel Framed In-line Wall Systems. II: Impact of Nonstructural Detailing

Fani Derveni

Although cold-formed steel (CFS) framing systems have the potential to support the need for resilient housing, the use of CFS has been restricted due to gaps in understanding its structural behavior and by the limited guidelines provided in design standard ...

Effect of Y2O3 dispersoids on microstructure and creep properties of Hastelloy X processed by laser powder-bed fusion

Christian Leinenbach

Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) was used to consolidate powders of a Ni-Cr-Fe-Mo alloy (Hastelloy X) blended with 1 wt% Y2O3 nanometric powders. The nearly-dense, crack-free specimens, with and without oxide dispersion strengthening (ODS), exhibit high-aspe ...

Deep transfer learning of additive manufacturing mechanisms across materials in metal-based laser powder bed fusion process

Roland Logé, Rita Drissi Daoudi

The defective regimes in metal-based Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) processes can be minimized by deploying in-situ monitoring strategies comprising Machine learning (ML) algorithms and sensing techniques. So far, algorithms trained for monitoring a partic ...

What is the role of ethics in accreditation guidelines for engineering programmes in Europe?

Helena Kovacs

The Washington Accord emphasises the role of ethical and societal considerations in the practice of engineering. Increasingly, national accrediting bodies are also expecting to see evidence in the delivery and assessment of ethics throughout engineering pr ...

Experimental Evaluation and Numerical Modeling of Wide-Flange Steel Columns Subjected to Constant and Variable Axial Load Coupled with Lateral Drift Demands

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady

This paper presents results from an experimental evaluation on the pre- and post-buckling behavior of 12 steel wide-flange cantilever columns under axial load and lateral drift demands. The influence of several loading and geometric parameters, including t ...

Flexible Support for Gas-Lubricated Bearing Bushings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann

Herringbone-grooved journal bearings (HGJBs) for high-speed turbo-machinery are often supported on O-rings due to their favorable stiffness and damping characteristics for stability and alignment reasons. They yield limited lifetime at high temperatures, i ...

Tribocorrosion of a CoCrMo alloy in sulfuric acid - Glycerol mixtures

Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

This work reports on the tribocorrosion properties of a CoCrMo alloy sliding under imposed passive potential against alumina in sulfuric acid-glycerol mixtures exhibiting different viscosities and thus, in principle, lubrication properties. As expected, we ...
