A multi scale consolidation model for press moulding of hybrid textiles into complex geometries

Vincent Werlen

Side-by-side hybrid textiles are an intermediate step for the production of fibre-reinforcedthermoplastic composites. Press moulding these materials combining reinforcing fibre textiles andthermoplastic matrix textiles or flexible layers is a promising met ...

An in-situ 3D micro-XRD investigation of water uptake by alkali-silica-reaction (ASR) product

Mahdieh Shakoorioskooie

The ASR products in concrete have various chemical compositions. It is yet unclear whether and how these products develop micro-expansion upon moisture ingress. This paper presents a 3D in-situ observation of the crystallography and volume change of an ASR ...

Buckling of pressurized spherical shells containing a through-thickness defect

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Matteo Pezzulla, Dong Yan

We present a study on the pressure buckling of thin, elastic spherical shells containing a thickness defect. Methodologically, we combine precision model experiments, finite element simulations, and a reduced axisymmetric shell model. We observe qualitativ ...

Tracing of Human Tumor Cell Lineages by Mitochondrial Mutations

Stephan Morgenthaler, Paul Refinetti, Per Olaf Ekstrom

Background Previous studies have shown the value in studying lineage tracing in slices of human tumors. However, a tumor is not a two-dimensional structure and to better understand how a tumor, and its corresponding metastasis grow, a three-dimensional (3- ...

Volume change characteristics of fine-grained soils due to sequential thermo-mechanical stresses

Alessio Ferrari, Rakshith Shetty

Know-how of volume change characteristics, VCC, of the fine-grained soils, exposed to thermal stresses, is essential for design of various thermo-active structures. These stresses are known to induce excess pore-water pressure, Δu θ , in the saturated stat ...

The pipetting of small volumes, typically ranging between a few and one thousand microliters (mu l), is widely used in many laboratories and essentially relies on air displacement to aspirate and dispense the liquid contained in a small plastic tip. While ...

A double-structure hydromechanical constitutive model for compacted bentonite.

Lyesse Laloui, Yafei Qiao

This paper presents a double-structure elastoplastic constitutive model that can describe the hydromechanical behavior of compacted bentonite. The model is formulated based on a new developed double-structure hydromechanical framework that consists of four ...

Biomembrane modeling with isogeometric analysis

Alfio Quarteroni, Andrea Bartezzaghi

We consider the numerical approximation of lipid biomembranes at equilibrium described by the Canham-Helfrich model, according to which the bending energy is minimized under area and volume constraints. Energy minimization is performed via L-2-gradient flo ...

Thermodynamic properties of the Shastry-Sutherland model throughout the dimer-product phase

Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand

The thermodynamic properties of the Shastry-Sutherland model have posed one of the longest-lasting conundrums in frustrated quantum magnetism. Over a wide range on both sides of the quantum phase transition (QPT) from the dimer-product state to the plaquet ...

A 3-dimensional phase-field model is implemented to simulate the grain evolution in the final stage of liquid-phase sintering. The model considers a liquid phase and a polycrystalline solid phase. Results for varying ratios of the solid-solid interface ene ...
