Miniaturized tube fixed plug drawing: determination of the friction coefficients and drawing limit of 316 LVM stainless steel

Jean-Marie Drezet, Stefano Mischler, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Bastien De Marco, Vance Nguyen, Stéphane Dobler

Tube drawing with a ﬁxed plug is investigated experimentally and numerically in order to optimise an industrial pass sequence. Tube drawings are performed on a laboratory drawing bench equipped with force, displacement and temperature sensors. The drawing ...

FRP-balsa composite sandwich bridge deck with complex core configuration

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Michael Osei-Antwi

The aim of this work was to investigate to what extent the performance of a glass fiberreinforced polymer (GFRP) sandwich slab-bridge with uniform high-density balsa core could be improved in terms of structural efficiency and weight thanks to a more compl ...

Structural performance of complex core systems for FRP-balsa composite sandwich bridge decks

Michael Osei-Antwi

Based on current fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite construction principles, FRP decks fall into two categories: pultruded decks and sandwich decks. Sandwich decks comprise face sheets and either honeycombs or foams reinforced with internal FRP webs ...

Channel and wedge plasmon modes of metallic V-grooves with finite metal thickness

Olivier Martin

We investigate numerically the effect of a finite metal film thickness on the propagation characteristics of the channel plasmon polariton (CPP) and wedge plasmon polariton (WPP) modes, both in a symmetric and asymmetric environment. We observe that decrea ...

Correlation between sizing formulation and compressive behaviour of concentrated glass bundle suspensions

Véronique Michaud, Emmanuelle Comte

The correlation between sizing formulation, bundle mechanical characteristics, and bundle-matrix static and dynamic interactions are investigated. Two glass-fiber sizing formulations are considered, one containing polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and the other pol ...

Prediction of residual stresses and springback after bending of a textured aluminium plate

Roland Logé

In this work, we attempt to simulate residual stresses and springback of a deformed metal pan based on a micro-macro modelling of the elastic and plastic strains. Samples cut out of an aluminium plate, under different angles relative to the rolling directi ...
