Highly Stretchable Flame-Retardant Skin for Soft Robotics with Hydrogel-Montmorillonite-Based Translucent Matrix
Flame-retardant coatings are crucial for intelligent systems operating in high-temperature (300-800 degrees C) scenarios, which typically involve multi-joint discrete or continuous kinematic systems. These multi-segment motion generation systems call for c ...
MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC2021Elevated Concentrations of 4-Bromobiphenyl and 1,3,5-Tribromobenzene Found in Deep Water of Lake Geneva Based on GCxGC-ENCI-TOFMS and GCxGC-mu ECD
Jeremy Samuel Arey, Saer Samanipour, Petros Dimitriou Christidis, Deedar Nabi
We quantified the concentrations of two little-studied brominated pollutants, 1,3,5-tribromobenzene (TBB) and 4-bromobiphenyl (4BBP), in the deep water column and sediments of Lake Geneva. We found aqueous concentrations of 625 +/- 68 pg L-1 for TBB and 66 ...
Amer Chemical Soc2017A review of the fire behaviour of pultruded GFRP structural profiles for civil engineering applications
Pultruded glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) profiles are finding increasing applications in civil engineering structures, owing to the several advantages they offer over traditional materials. However, due to the combustible nature of their polymer mat ...
Elsevier2015The knowns and unknowns of the physiology and biochemistry of organohalide respiration
Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard
Although a multitude of halogenated compounds are naturally produced, interest in biodegradation of these often toxic compounds has mainly been driven by anthropogenic contamination of soils and aquifers with huge amounts of chlorinated solvents (tetra- an ...
2014Prevention of forest fires in a changing climatic context in Ticino, southern Switzerland
Switzerland is not a place commonly associated with forest fires, unlike many areas of the nearby Mediterranean Basin. However, in this Alpine country, forest fires occur every year and destroy forests that fulfil various functions, the most socially and e ...
EPFL2006Structural response of liquid-cooled GFRP slabs subjected to fire - Part II: Thermo-chemical and thermo-mechanical modeling
Based on defined temperature-dependent material properties, thermo-chemical and thermo-mechanical models were developed to predict the temperature progression and endurance of full-scale slab components exposed to ISO 834 fire conditions on their underside ...
