Spun fibres: a quasi circularly birefringent medium

Luc Thévenaz, Ana Gabriela Correa Mena, Xu Cheng

A simplified model describing the polarisation characteristics of spun fibres is proposed, aiming at determining how close to a circularly birefringent medium such a fibre is. This is of crucial importance regarding the interest of such a medium for magnet ...

Increasing temperature and vapor pressure deficit lead to hydraulic damages in the absence of soil drought

Pascal Turberg, Charlotte Grossiord, Eugénie Isabelle Mas, Laura Mekarni, Philipp Schuler, Leonie Corine Schönbeck

Temperature (T) and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) are important drivers of plant hydraulic conductivity, growth, mortality, and ecosystem productivity, independently of soil water availability. Our goal was to disentangle the effects of T and VPD on plant h ...

Damage-driven strain localisation in networks of fibres: A computational homogenisation approach

Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Felipe Figueredo Rocha

In many applications, such as textiles, fibreglass, paper and several kinds of biological fibrous tissues, the main load-bearing constituents at the micro-scale are arranged as a fibre network. In these materials, rupture is usually driven by micro-mechani ...

Distributed forward Brillouin sensor based on local light phase recovery

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Zhisheng Yang, Desmond Chow Ming Chia

The distributed fibre sensing technology based on backward stimulated Brillouin scattering (BSBS) is experiencing a rapid development. However, all reported implementations of distributed Brillouin fibre sensors until today are restricted to detecting phys ...

A note on the fibres of Mori fibre spaces

Giulio Codogni, Roberto Svaldi

We consider the problem of determining which Fano manifolds can be realised as fibres of a Mori fibre space. In particular, we study the case of toric varieties, Fano manifolds with high index and some Fano manifolds with high Picard rank. ...

Effect of mechanical damage and wound healing on the viscoelastic properties of stems of flax cultivars (Linum usitatissimum L. cv. Eden and cv. Drakkar)

Véronique Michaud, Sara Dalle Vacche, Federica Sordo

As plant fibres are increasingly used in technical textiles and their composites, underlying principles of wound healing in living plant fibres are relevant to product quality, and provide inspiration for biomimetic healing in synthetic materials. In this ...

Novel technique for distributed fibre sensing based on coherent Rayleigh scattering measurements of birefringence

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Xin Lu

A novel distributed fibre sensing technique is described and experimentally validated, based on birefringence measurements using coherent Rayleigh scattering. It natively provides distributed measurements of temperature and strain with more than an order o ...

Cell-mediated Fibre Recruitment Drives Extracellular Matrix Mechanosensing in Engineered Fibrillar Microenvironments

Mahmut Selman Sakar

To investigate how cells sense stiffness in settings structurally similar to native extracellular matrices, we designed a synthetic fibrous material with tunable mechanics and user-defined architecture. In contrast to flat hydrogel surfaces, these fibrous ...
