Mitigating tip vortex cavitation by a flexible trailing thread

Mohamed Farhat, Ali Amini

Tip Vortex Cavitation (TVC) is a major issue in design and operation of axial hydraulic machines. We investigate the capacity of a flexible trailing thread in alleviating TVC by analyzing the flow-induced motion. For this purpose, a nylon thread with three ...

Mode I interlaminar fracture of carbon epoxy laminates: Effects of ply thickness

John Botsis, Joël Cugnoni, Thomas Gmür, Guillaume Frossard

In this work, the influence of ply thickness on strain energy release rate (ERR) in delamination of carbon epoxy laminates is addressed. Specimens with three ply thicknesses: 0.030, 0.075 and 0.150 mm are tested. While the ERR at onset of crack propagation ...

Spider silk: a novel optical fibre for biochemical sensing

Luc Thévenaz, Kenny Hey Tow, Isabelle Dicaire, Desmond Chow Ming Chia

Whilst being thoroughly used in the textile industry and biomedical sector, silk has not yet been exploited for fibre optics-based sensing although silk fibres directly obtained from spiders can guide light and have shown early promises to being sensitive ...

Dynamic mechanical properties of epoxy/flax fibre composites

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Fabien Duc

The mechanical and damping properties were measured for unidirectional, 0/90 and twill 2/2 flax fibre (FF) composites containing 40 vol% of fibres in an epoxy matrix. All composites were processed by resin transfer moulding. The influence of the impregnati ...

The role of twist and crimp on the vibration behaviour of flax fibre composites

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Fabien Duc

The damping properties of unidirectional, 0/90 and twill 2/2 flax fibre (FF) reinforced epoxy composites containing 40 vol% of fibres have been measured by vibration beam testing (VBT). The influence of the impregnation quality, the fibre/matrix adhesion, ...
