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 ...
2018FRP-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 ...
2014Structural performance of complex core systems for FRP-balsa composite sandwich bridge decks
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 ...

The aim of this work was to investigate to what extent the performance of a glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) sandwich slab-bridge with a uniform high-density balsa core could be improved in terms of structural efficiency and weight by using a more com ...
American Society of Civil Engineers2013Channel and wedge plasmon modes of metallic V-grooves with finite metal thickness
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 ...
Optical Society of America2009Correlation 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 ...
2005Prediction of residual stresses and springback after bending of a textured aluminium plate
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 ...
