The behavior of adhesively-bonded pultruded GFRP joints under cyclic loading was experimentally investigated. Three specimen types were examined: double cantilever beam, end load split, and mixed-mode bending specimens for Mode I, Mode II, and mixed-Mode I ...
Type-I Edge Localised Modes (ELMs) have been mitigated in MAST through the application of n = 3, 4, and 6 resonant magnetic perturbations. For each toroidal mode number of the non-axisymmetric applied fields, the frequency of the ELMs has been increased si ...
Scalable, reliable underwater communication is still a major challenge limiting the deployment of large-scale cooperative underwater systems, such as swarms of AUVs, which generally rely on frequent updates from surrounding units for control and mission ob ...
In the late 19th century, F.-A. Forel led investigations of the Rhone River delta area of Lake Geneva that resulted in the discovery of a textbook example of a river-fed delta system containing impressive subaquatic channels. Well ahead of the marine count ...
The uncertainty of the crack tip position inside composite coupons during a delamination test under variable fracture mode conditions reduces the accuracy of the experimental results. In this work a method is presented where the crack tip position is locat ...
Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) are expected to support a variety of civilian and military applications. Sensed data can only be interpreted meaningfully when referenced to the location of the sensor, making localization an important problem. W ...
The piezoelectric properties of 31-mode resonators of lead zirconate titanate ceramics under hydrostatic pressure from 0.1 to 325MPa were evaluated by a fitting method, in which mechanical loss was taken into account. Our results based on the fitting metho ...
Underwater communications is a very challenging topic due to its singular channel characteristics. Most protocols used in terrestrial wireless communications can not be directly applied in the underwater world. A high bit error rate and low propagation del ...
Drainage curves (plots of the non-wetting fluid saturation versus applied pressure) for infiltration of SiC particle preforms with Al and Al-12.2 at.% Si are measured at 1023 K (750 degrees C) with a pressure infiltration apparatus adapted for direct track ...
The high pressure neurological syndrome develops during deep-diving (> 1.1 MPa) involving impairment of cognitive functions, alteration of synaptic transmission and increased excitability in cortico-hippocampal areas. The medial perforant path (MPP), conne ...
