Fatigue safety examination of a riveted railway bridge using data from long term monitoring

Eugen Brühwiler, Senta Haldimann

Long term monitoring of structural elements of a 115 years old riveted railway bridge structure of high value as cultural heritage has been conducted. Monitored values were exploited by Rainflow analysis and served as the basis for the fatigue safety verif ...

A 1.5g SMA actuated Microglider looking for the Light

Dario Floreano, André Guignard, Mirko Kovac, Jean-Daniel Nicoud, Jean-Christophe Zufferey

Summarizing, we present a 1.5g gliding robot that can do phototaxis as a first step towards a novel palm sized self deploying microglider. To reduce the weight, we developed a 0.2g SMA actuator for rudder control that is harmoniously integrated in the airf ...
