Monitoring of steel-lined pressure shafts using water-hammer records and wavelet filtering and decomposition

The failure of steel liner of pressure shafts of hydropower plants can have catastrophic consequences. The partial or total loss of the liner support’s rigidity is characterized by a local change of the hydro-acoustic properties and creates reflection boun ...

Precipitation of Nanosized and Nanostructured Powders: Process Intensification and Scale-Out Using a Segmented Flow Tubular Reactor (SFTR)

Heinrich Hofmann, Paul Bowen, Jacques Lemaître, Andrea Testino, Nathalie Jongen, Marcel Donnet

The successful scale-out and process intensification using a segmented flow tubular reactor (SFTR) for ultrafine CaCO3, BaTiO3, and nanosized ZnO from optimized minibatch (20 mL) conditions is presented. The capacity of the SFTR in process intensification ...

Identification of cyclic and anisotropic behaviour of ODS steels tubes

Roland Logé

In this paper, an elastic plastic behaviour model based on internal state variables is investigated. The final aim is to describe the mechanical stress-strain cyclic response of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels during the cold pilgering process. ...

Dispensing and Hermetic Sealing Rb in a Miniature Reference Cell for Integrated Atomic Clocks

Herbert Shea, Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Fabrizio Vecchio, Vinu Lalgudi Venkatraman

An innovative method for filling and sealing the reference cell for a Rubidium (Rb) integrated atomic clock is presented. We used a simple, low-temperature solder sealing technique for producing mini-cells of the size of 12 x 10 x 2 mm, suitable for Rb min ...

Numerical modelling and strength prediction of welded double lap joints made of timber

Yves Weinand, Till Vallée, Bernhard Stamm, Benjamin Hahn

Welding of wood is a relatively new method of joining load bearing elements, which holds the potential to compete with structural adhesion, since it allows for an almost instantaneous bond. First experimental and numerical investigations showed that failur ...

Multiscale Computational Methodology Applied to Hydroacoustic Resonance in Cavitating Pipe Flow

Nicolas Ruchonnet

The present work is a contribution to the physical analysis and numerical simulation of the pressure surges in hydraulic machinery and connected conduit systems. Localized hydrodynamic instabilities including cavitation are prone to interact with the entir ...

MULTI-BUNCH EFFECT OF RESISTIVEWALL IN THE CLIC BDS

Nicolas Frank Mounet, Raphaël Mutzner

Wake fields in the CLIC Beam Delivery System (BDS) can cause severe single or multi-bunch effects leading to luminosity loss. The main contributors in the BDS are geometric and resistive wall wake fields of the collimators and resistive wall wakes of the b ...

Visual Mapping of Internal Pipe Walls using Sparse Features for Application on board Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

Adrian Bodenmann

In this project an algorithm to generate a single image of an entire water pipe's inside wall was developed. An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) equipped with a fish-eye camera will be deployed to dive through the pipe and take pictures of its inside wa ...

ACOUSTIC RESONNANCE IN CAVITATION FREE AND CAVITATING FLOWS

François Avellan, Sébastien Alligné, Nicolas Ruchonnet

At part load operation of Francis turbine, the swirl in the draft tube leads to flow instability known as vortex breakdown. This flow instability can interact with the rest of the hydraulic circuit through axially propagating plane-waves. Moreover, at low ...
