Interdigitated electrode (IDE) systems with lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films play an increasingly important role for two reasons: first, such a configuration generates higher voltages than parallel plate capacitor-type electrode (PPE) structures, a ...

For the detection of problems like fastening failures and delamination in composites, the employment of embedded fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors is considered an effective tool to measure non-homogeneous internal strains near damage or interfaces of diss ...
Punching shear reinforcement is an efficient method to increase not only the strength but also the deformation capacity of flat slabs supported by columns. Especially, the increase in deformation capacity is desired so that the load can be distributed to o ...
A calculation method for accurately computing the displacement, image stress, and image energy induced by defects, such as cavities, precipitates, finite dislocation segments, and dislocation loops, in a free-standing anisotropic thin crystal film is prese ...
Wood-to-wood bonds obtained by means of friction welding are a relatively new type of connections holding high potential to compete with existing structural adhesives, since a load bearing bond is formed almost instantaneously. This paper addresses the que ...
Strain response of polycrystalline barium titanate (BaTiO3) was investigated under high unipolar electric field (0 to 4 kV/mm) and compressive stress (0 to 400 MPa) in the temperature range from 25 to 160 degrees C. In the vicinity of the Curie point (T-C) ...
This work addresses the development of composite materials that contain metallic load-bearing cords with the aim of combining outstanding mechanical performance with added functionality, including electrical conductivity, data transmission, and temperature ...
It is well known that moisture absorption impairs the mechanical and physical properties of polymers. Conventionally, the material's hygric strains are described as the product of a constant coefficient of moisture expansion (CME) and moisture concentratio ...
In many applications elastoplastic composites are used in limited amounts, therefore it is important to have estimates of the size of their representative volume element both for modeling and experimental purposes. In this work the tensile response of part ...
Fatigue crack growth observed in tubular K-joint specimens, typical of tubular bridge structures, always initiates at the chord crown toe locations whether the applied stress range is tensile or compressive. Even though other locations around the weld have ...
