Arrested fluid-fluid phase separation in depletion systems: Implications of the characteristic length on gel formation and rheology

Suliana Manley

We investigate the structural, dynamical, and rheological properties of colloid-polymer mixtures in a volume fraction range of φ=0.15-0.35. Our systems are density-matched, residual charges are screened, and the polymer-colloid size ratio is ∼0.37. For the ...

Structural performance of FRP composites in fire

Thomas Keller, Yu Bai

This paper reviews the experimental and modeling work that has been carried out concerning the behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in fire since the 1980s. The first part focuses on the thermophysical properties and temperature responses, ...

Fracture of adhesively-bonded pultruded GFRP joints under constant amplitude fatigue loading

Yi Zhang, Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos

The fracture behavior of adhesively-bonded structural joints under tensile constant amplitude fatigue has been investigated. Double-lap joints (DLJs) and stepped-lap joints (SLJs) composed of pultruded GFRP laminates and an epoxy adhesive were examined. Bo ...

Thermomechanical behavior of multifunctional GFRP sandwich structures with encapsulated photovoltaic cells

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Behzad Dehghan Manshadi

The feasibility of encapsulating solar cells into the glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) skins of load-bearing and thermally insulating sandwich elements with foam cores has been evaluated. Exposure of the encapsulated cells to artificial sunlight led t ...

Design of robust and ductile FRP structures incorporating ductile adhesive joints

Thomas Keller, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest

A design concept for engineering structures consisting of brittle FRP components and ductile adhesive joints is proposed. The elastoplastic adhesive joints provide system ductility that compensates for the material ductility that FRP composites lack. In th ...

Passive damping of composites with embedded shape memory alloy wires

Véronique Michaud, Antoine Sigg, Enrico Bigi

NiTi alloy wires were embedded during the infusion processing of woven carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) composite plates with the purpose to passively increase their damping. Two types of NiTi wires, having the same diameter of 203 mu m, were conside ...

Structural Glass Beams with Embedded Glass Fibre Reinforcement

Pieter Christian Louter

This paper investigates the possibilities of pultruded glass fibre rods as embedded reinforcement in SentryGlas (SG) laminated glass beams. To do so, a series of pullout tests, to investigate the bond strength of the rods to the laminate, and a series of b ...

Strengthening of flat slabs against punching shear using post-installed shear reinforcement

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

A significant number of existing flat slabs currently require strengthening against punching shear for safety reasons (the increase of applied loads and deficiencies during design or construction) or to comply with more stringent code requirements. Availab ...
