Load-bearing tissues such as articular cartilage or meniscus are not infallible. They might fail due to trauma, over-solicitations, or diseases, which could subsequently alter the mobility of the patient. Repairing these damaged tissues in a minimally inva ...
All surfaces, whether they are natural or man-made, exhibit a certain amount of roughness on a range of length scales. This surface roughness evidently plays a major role in tribological processes, like friction and wear between two surfaces sliding agains ...
This thesis evaluates the effects of the position of the concrete core and its stiffness on the horizontal deformation of a multi-storey timber-concrete hybrid building. As part of the evaluation a calculation method with polynomial functions was derived t ...
We report the design fabrication and characterization of a monolithic nano-optomechanical transducer comprised of high stress silicon nitride (Si3N4). Our system features a one dimensional Fabry-Perot photonic crystal cavity (Q approximate to 10(5)) integr ...
WC-Co cemented carbides are composites, which combine a hard phase consisting of WC grains and a metallic ductile phase as a binder. Their excellent mechanical properties, combining high hardness, toughness and refractory properties, make them excellent ma ...
Water presence causes a dramatic reduction of sandstone strength. Under compressive stress conditions, the strength of a rock sample is controlled by frictional parameters and the fracture toughness of the material. Here, we report fracture toughness, fric ...
The testing procedure and results on saturated samples of Opalinus Clay in the work of Schuster et al. (Rock Mech Rock Eng https://doi.org/10.1007/ s00603-021-02474-3, 2021) were conducted and presented using strain rates two to four orders of magnitudes h ...
The cotangent complex of a map of commutative rings is a central object in deformation theory. Since the 1990s, it has been generalized to the homotopical setting of E-infinity-ring spectra in various ways. In this work we first establish, in the context o ...
Recent advances in soft actuators have enabled systems that are safer to interact with, better at handling fragile objects, able to produce complex shapes with fewer components. However, being inherently soft differs these actuators from their rigid counte ...
Collaborative robots (cobots) have been increasingly used in the industry in recent years. The cobots are often 7-axis kinematically redundant manipulators. Exploiting these redundancies in industrial tasks is still a challenge as the change in the robot j ...
