Structural stability issues in planar solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) arise from the mismatch between the coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) of the components. The stress state at operating temperature is the superposition of several contributions, whic ...
Earlier experimental work on decellularized arteries revealed the existence of significant residual stresses within the arterial wall, which are released upon chemical removal of vascular smooth muscle in normal arteries causing substantial radial expansio ...
This thesis aims at better understanding the role played by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSM) in the biomechanics of the arterial wall. Current models assume that under maximal vasodilation VSM carry no load, or the so-called "active stress" is zero. Biom ...
The photocuring of three different highly functional acrylates—Di-pentaerythritol penta/hexaacrylate (DPHA) and two hyperbranched molecules (HBP), one with a stiff polyester and one with a more flexible polyether structure—was investigated by means of phot ...
Particle aggregation is a commonly observed phenomenon in many types of soils, such as natural clays and agricultural soils. These soils contain porous aggregates, often separated by large, interaggregate pores. Two levels of intra- and interaggregate poro ...
Calculated strain distributions in flexible pavement were studied by comparison with measurements made on full-scale structures. The calculated results were obtained by elastic and viscoelastic modellings of these structures. As no stress measurements were ...

Strut and tie models and stress fields are methods that can be used for the dimensioning and detailing of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures as well as for the check of existing ones. This paper presents an innovative approach towards the autom ...
This paper addresses a new, unified thermo-mechanical constitutive model for unsaturated soils through a coupled study. In the context of elastoplasticity and the critical state theory, the model uses the concepts of multimechanism and bounding surface the ...
Traffic loads combined with moisture variations are the most harmful for road structures. Even if the pavement is assumed to have an elastic behaviour, the partially saturated subsoil can present irreversible strains that endanger the integrity of the road ...
