Tensile properties of as-cast aluminum alloys AA3104, AA6111 and CA31218 at above solidus temperatures

André Phillion

The tensile mechanical response of three semi-solid as-cast aluminum alloys - AA3104, AA6111, and CA31218 (an alloy similar in composition to AA3003) - was measured between a fraction solid f(s) similar to 0.85 and f(s) similar to 1 in order to establish t ...

Thalamic nuclei clustering on High Angular Resolution Diffusion Images

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli, Patric Hagmann, Leila Cammoun, Azzurra Grassi

Thalamic nuclei can be distinguished by their characteristic fiber orientations, which influence the diffusion. Fiber orientations are relatively aligned within a nucleus due to the fact that the cerebrocortical striations within a nucleus all target the s ...

Tailoring of the practical adhesion between polyethylene and galvanised steel

Véronique Michaud, Gabrielle Pax

Abstract—The practical adhesion of maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene (MAH-PE) to galvanised steel was studied using 3-point flexure tests, before and after hydrothermal ageing. Before bonding, the electro-galvanised steel was treated with γ -aminopropy ...
