Characterization of the Residual Stresses and Strength of Ceramic-Metal Braze Joints

John Botsis, Matteo Galli

Residual stress relief in ceramic-metal joints produced by active brazing depends primarily on the plastic response of the filler metal. A procedure for the production and mechanical characterization of bulk active filler alloy specimens is developed. In p ...

Mechanical properties-micro structure correlation in neutron irradiated heat-affected zones of austenitic stainless steels

Nadine Baluc

The effects of neutron irradiation on austenitic stainless steels, usually used for the manufacturing of internal elements of nuclear reactors (e.g. the core shrouds), are the alteration of the microstructure, and, as a consequence, of the mechanical prope ...

The constitutive response of brazing alloys and the residual stresses in ceramic-metal joints

Matteo Galli

Nowadays the joining of dissimilar materials is often the only solution to fulfill the complex requirements of high technology applications. One of the fields in which the research activity is more intense and promising is that of the brazing of ceramics w ...

Fatigue of bridge joints using welded tubes or cast steel node solutions

Alain Nussbaumer, Senta Haldimann, Ann Schumacher

In the design of recently constructed steel-concrete composite bridges using hollow section trusses for the main load carrying structure, the fatigue verification of the tubular truss joints has been a main issue. Recent research on the fatigue behaviour o ...

Development of friction welding of wood

Bernhard Stamm

For several decades friction welding technology has found broad application in many fields of the metal and plastic connection industry. The fabricated joints are laminar or punctiform depending upon the shape of the parts to be welded. The work presented ...

Joining wood by friction welding

Bernhard Stamm, Julius Natterer

At the Chair of Timber Constructions of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) tests were carried out to join wooden work pieces by friction welding without any additional welding deposit. It could be determined that this kind of tech ...
