Material characterization tests of an Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) were performed at various ages. A linear relationship was obtained between the mechanical properties and the degree of hydration. In parallel, the influence of ...
The performance of distributed temperature sensor systems based on spontaneous Raman scattering and coded OTDR are investigated. The evaluated DTS system, which is based on correlation coding, uses graded-index multimode fibers, operates over short-to-medi ...
C59N magnetic fullerenes inside single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are used to probe the density of states (DOS) on the host tubes using electron spin resonance (ESR). The C59N radicals are separated by C60 fullerenes to prevent dimerization and C59N-C6 ...
This paper presents Large Eddy Simulations of a compressible turbulent flow through a duct of square cross-section with a localized heat source on its bottom wall. The potential applications are related to the accidental heat release in a road tunnel. A co ...
High-resolution neutron inelastic scattering experiments in applied magnetic fields have been performed on La1.895Sr0.105CuO4 (LSCO). In zero field, the temperature dependence of the low-energy peak intensity at the incommensurate momentum transfer Q(IC)=( ...
This communication concerns analysis of the behavior of flexible pavements using an elastic-viscoplastic constitutive relation for the asphalt concrete. The numerical model takes into consideration the influence of the temperature on the behavior of the as ...
Surface treatment optimization requires the control of the ion dose and the workpiece temperature, two parameters that are not trivially measurable in plasma-based ion implantation. A temperature and ion fluence monitoring system has been developed and imp ...
A fracture toughness database obtained on the Eurofer97 steel (25 mm plate, heat 83697) is presented. The material has been tested in the 'as-received' condition in the lower transition region at temperatures ranging from 173 K down to 123 K. Sub-sized (0. ...
Thermoelectric properties of Ni substituted (La) cobaltate compounds with perovskite structure have been investigated. For all the studied compounds the Seebeck coefficient is positive indicating predominant positive charge carriers. The electrical resisti ...
Circadian clocks are aligned to the environment via synchronizing signals, or Zeitgebers, such as daily light and temperature cycles, food availability, and social behavior. In this study, we found that genome-wide expression profiles from temperature-entr ...
