The needle model: A new model for the main hydration peak of alite

Karen Scrivener, Alexandre Reda Constantin William Caleb Ouzia

This article presents a new model for the main hydration peaks of tricalcium silicate and alite on the assumption that C-S-H nucleates and grows as needles. The model relies only on directly observable quantities and reproduces the transition from the acce ...

In situ characterization of work hardening and springback in grade 2 alpha-titanium under tensile load

Helena Van Swygenhoven

Plastic effects during sheet metal forming can lead to undesirable distortions in formed components. Here, the three-stage work hardening and plastic strain recovery ("springback") in a cold-rolled, alpha-phase commercially pure titanium is examined. Inter ...

Historical newspaper semantic segmentation using visual and textual features

Raphaël Barman

Mass digitization and the opening of digital libraries gave access to a huge amount of historical newspapers. In order to bring structure into these documents, current techniques generally proceed in two distinct steps. First, they segment the digitized im ...

Frequency-dependent decoupling of domain-wall motion and lattice strain in bismuth ferrite

Dragan Damjanovic

Dynamics of domain walls are among the main features that control strain mechanisms in ferroic materials. Here, we demonstrate that the domain-wall-controlled piezoelectric behaviour in multiferroic BiFeO3 is distinct from that reported in classical ferroe ...

Breaking size-segregation waves and mobility feedback in dense granular avalanches.

Christophe Ancey, Kasper van der Vaart

Through experiments and discrete particle method (DPM) simulations we present evidence for the existence of a recirculating structure, that exists near the front of dense granular avalanches, and is known as a breaking size-segregation (BSS) wave. This is ...

Size Ratio of Fluvial Grains’ Intermediate Axes Assessed by Image Processing and Square-Hole Sieving

Severin Stähly

The comparability of grain sizes emerging from different methods are discussed, including image-based grain-size analysis. Waterworked gravel-bed surfaces from laboratory and field experiments are analyzed in detail. Grain sizes estimated using freely avai ...

Intergranular Strain Evolution During Biaxial Loading: A Multiscale FE-FFT Approach

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Steven Van Petegem

Predicting the macroscopic and microscopic mechanical response of metals and alloys subjected to complex loading conditions necessarily requires a synergistic combination of multiscale material models and characterization techniques. This article focuses o ...

Arsenic methylation dynamics in a rice paddy soil anaerobic enrichment culture

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Julien Maillard, Alexandre Bagnoud, Leia Soraya Véronique Falquet, Matthew Charles Reid

Methylated arsenic (As) species represent a significant fraction of the As accumulating in rice grains, and there are geographic patterns in the abundance of methylated arsenic in rice that are not understood. The microorganisms driving As biomethylation i ...

Competition between intragranular and intergranular deformation mechanisms in ODS ferritic steels during hot deformation at high strain rate

Roland Logé

Oxide Dispersed Strengthened (ODS) ferritic stainless steels present well-known fine grains microstructures where dislocation movement is hindered by a dense precipitation of nano-oxides particles. Previous research, on the thermomechanical behavior at hig ...

Structure of Herbig AeBe Disks at the milliarcsecond Scale—A Statistical Survey in the H Band Using PIONIER-VLTI

Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez

Context. It is now generally accepted that the near-infrared excess of Herbig AeBe stars originates in the dust of a circumstellar disk. Aims. The aims of this article are to infer the radial and vertical structure of these disks at scales of order 1 au, a ...
