Hinges for Origami-Inspired Structures by Multi-Material Additive Manufacturing

Jamie Paik, Jian-Lin Huang, Ralph Spolenak

Additive manufacturing of structures capable of changing their properties or shape in a programmed controlled manner is a booming research field. A large number of studies show that the unique capabilities of 4D printing (freedom of geometrical design spac ...

A multi-scale approach for high cycle anisotropic fatigue resistance: Application to forged components

Roland Logé

Forged components exhibit good mechanical strength, particularly in terms of high cycle fatigue properties. This is due to the specific microstructure resulting from large plastic deformation as in a forging process. The goal of this study is to account fo ...

Multiaxial fatigue criterion accounting for anisotropy in forged components

Roland Logé

Numerical modelling of fatigue behavior for anisotropic structures has become critical for design applications. This is particularly true for forged components due to the intrinsic anisotropy of the material resulting from the process. The aim of this stud ...

Consolidation and deconsolidation in composite processing

In composite processing, a compressible dry fiber preform is in many cases impregnated by a molten polymeric matrix. The impregnated part is sometimes used as produced, but most often it requires a reheating step before stamping, flow molding or even paint ...

The packing stress of impregnated fiber mats

Véronique Michaud

The parameters affecting the packing stress of fiber mats for melt impregnation, resin transfer molding and compression molding are systematically investigated. An analytical equation based on local bending of fibers, which was previously derived for non-i ...

Automatic Morphometry of Nerve Histological Sections

Olivier Cuisenaire, Benoît Macq

A method for the automatic segmentation, recognition and measurement of neuronal myelinated fibers in nerve histological sections is presented. In this method, the fiber parameters i.e. perimeter, area, position of the fiber and myelin sheath thickness are ...

Tensile strength of fiber-reinforced composites: I. Model and effects of local fiber geometry

William Curtin

Predictions of the ultimate tensile strength of 3-dimensional fiber-reinforced composites as a function of the fiber statistical strength distribution and fiber geometry (square vs. hexagonal packing) are presented for materials in which the load transfer ...

Mechanical behavior of glass and Blackglas(R) ceramic matrix composites

William Curtin

Room temperature tensile tests are reported on two low-cost ceramic matrix composite materials, comprised of matrices of Blackglas(R) and a proprietory glass composition each reinforced with Nicalon(R) SiC-based fibers. The measured mechanical behaviors, s ...
