From concrete waste to walls An investigation of reclamation and digital technologies for new load-bearing structures
Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Stefana Parascho, Maxence Grangeot
The research presented in this paper highlights current practices for the end-of-life of concrete and explores opportunities in using unaltered concrete rubbles from demolition for the digital construction of structural walls. Through research by iterative ...
2023From concrete waste to walls An investigation of reclamation and digital technologies for new load-bearing structures
Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Stefana Parascho, Maxence Grangeot
Our research explores opportunities in using unaltered concrete rubbles from demolition for the digital construction of structural walls. Through research by iterative making, we identify relevant upcycling processes and design strategies and explore new t ...
2023Electromagnetic actuator design for distributed stiffness
Origami robots characterized by rigid plates linked together with flexible joints have inherent compliance and large deformations. Their low-profile design and folding mechanical transmissions provide substantial force and torque, especially for wearables ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2022Could building replacements significantly contribute to seismic vulnerability mitigation at urban scale? Case studies of two typical swiss cities
This paper contains an investigation on the potential decrease of seismic vulnerability related to building replacements for the cities of Sion and Martigny in Switzerland. Those two cities were identified for the present research based on the accuracy of ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2022Composition and Pressure Effects on Partitioning of Ferrous Iron in Iron-Rich Lower Mantle Heterogeneities
Philippe Gillet, Marco Cantoni, James Badro, Susannah McGregor Dorfman, Farhang Nabiei, Charles-Edouard Boukaré
Both seismic observations of dense low shear velocity regions and models of magma ocean crystallization and mantle dynamics support enrichment of iron in Earth’s lowermost mantle. Physical properties of iron-rich lower mantle heterogeneities in the modern ...
2021Investigating Magma Ocean Solidification on Earth Through Laser‐Heated Diamond Anvil Cell Experiments
Philippe Gillet, Cécile Hébert, Marco Cantoni, James Badro, Farhang Nabiei, Charles-Edouard Boukaré
We carried out a series of silicate fractional crystallization experiments at lower mantle pressures using the laser-heated diamond anvil cell. Phase relations and the compositional evolution of the cotectic melt and equilibrium solids along the liquid lin ...
2021Moored observations of turbulent mixing events in deep Lake Garda, Italy
Sebastiano Piccolroaz, Marco Toffolon
Deep water circulation and mixing processes are responsible for the transport of matter, nutrients and pollutants in deep lakes. Nevertheless, detailed continuous observations are rarely available. To overcome some of these deficiencies and with the aim of ...
2021Microbial-induced carbonate precipitation applicability with the methane hydrate-bearing layer microbe
Production of methane gas from the methane-hydrate-bearing layer below the deep-ocean floor is expected to be crucial in the future of energy resources worldwide. During the methane gas-production phase from the methane hydrate with the depressurisation me ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2020A radio ridge connecting two galaxy clusters in a filament of the cosmic web
Galaxy clusters are the most massive gravitationally bound structures in the Universe. They grow by accreting smaller structures in a merging process that produces shocks and turbulence in the intracluster gas. We observed a ridge of radio emission connect ...
AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE2019Beryllium melting and erosion on the upper dump plates in JET during three ITER-like wall campaigns
Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Alessandro Pau, Cristian Sommariva, Henri Weisen, Richard Pitts, Yann Camenen, Jan Horacek, Javier García Hernández, Marco Wischmeier, Nicola Vianello, Mikhail Maslov, Federico Nespoli, Yao Zhou, David Pfefferlé, Davide Galassi, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, Liang Yao, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Hamish William Patten, Samuel Lanthaler, Bernhard Sieglin, Otto Asunta
Data on erosion and melting of beryllium upper limiter tiles, so-called dump plates (DP), are presented for all three campaigns in the JET tokamak with the ITER-like wall. High-resolution images of the upper wall of JET show clear signs of flash melting on ...
