Contributions to rebar-to-concrete interaction and its structural implications for design and monitoring applications
Bond between reinforcing bars and concrete has been the focus of extensive research over the last century. This is well-justified as the functioning of reinforced concrete intimately depends on the interaction between rebar and concrete, as for example cra ...
EPFL2024Frequency response of fiber reinforced DEAs
Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Stefania Maria Aliki Konstantinidi, Markus Koenigsdorff
Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs) have emerged as versatile and promising devices for a multitude of applications, including soft robotics, haptic interfaces, and artificial muscles. DEAs are an interesting soft actuator technology due to their high en ...
Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)2024Effect of wettability and textile architecture on fluid displacement and pore formation during infiltration of carbon fibrous preforms
Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros
We seek to address how air entrapment mechanisms during infiltration are influenced by the wetting characteristics of the fluid and the pore network formed by the reinforcement. To this end, we evaluated the behavior of two model fluids with different surf ...
London2023Monitoring 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 w ...
