Design optimisation of the ITER divertor magnetic probes using FEM analyses

Alexander Karpushov

This paper is focused on the design, simulation and optimisation of the ITER divertor magnetic tangential coils. The most critical issue for the divertor coils is to minimise RITES [G. Vayakis, et al., Radiation-induced thermoelectric sensitivity (RITES) i ...

Tendon-Based Transmission for Surgical Robotics: Systematic Experimental Friction Modeling.

Hannes Bleuler, Masayuki Hara, Patrick Schoeneich, Ricardo Daniel Rita Beira, Ali Sengül

Increased miniaturization of surgical instruments is essential to successfully perform surgical procedures in restricted areas as in many applications of minimally-invasive surgery. Miniaturization permits increase in dexterity and decrease in access incis ...

Large-scale fabrication of titanium-rich perovskite PZT submicro/nano wires and their electromechanical properties

Jian Wang, Nava Setter, Silviu Cosmin Sandu

We report a 2-step approach to prepare tetragonal perovskite PbZr0.1Ti0.9O3 submicro/nano wires in gram scale and with over 95% wire content. Non-perovskite precursor wires were first fabricated by hydrothermal processing. A subsequent annealing in a PbO a ...

Gallium assisted plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of silicon nanowires

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Sonia Conesa Boj, Libo Yu, Père Roca i Cabarrocas

Silicon nanowires have been grown with gallium as catalyst by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The morphology and crystalline structure has been studied by electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy as a function of growth temperature and catalys ...

Embedded shape memory alloy wires to improve performance of microcapsule-based self-healing polymers

Véronique Michaud, Eva Kirkby

We report the first measurements of a self-healing polymer that combines a microencapsulated liquid healing agent and shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. When a propagating crack ruptures the embedded microcapsules, the liquid healing agent is automatically re ...

A single nanotrench in a palladium microwire for hydrogen detection

Jürgen Brugger, Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Oscar Vazquez Mena, Thomas Kiefer

The hydrogen sensing characteristics of a single nanotrench fabricated by focused ion beam milling (FIB) in an evaporated palladium microwire are presented. In situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements proved that, in the presence of H2, the trench c ...

Low temperature moulding of adaptive composites with embedded shape memory alloy wires

Véronique Michaud, Eva Kirkby, Julie O'Keane

The feasibility of using a low temperature liquid composite molding technique to produce smart composites with embedded shape memory alloys was investigated. The epoxy system of EPON 828 resin and DETA hardener was evaluated, with embedded NiTiCu shape mem ...

Embedded Shape-Memory Alloy Wires for Improved Performance of Self-Healing Polymers

Véronique Michaud, Eva Kirkby

We report the first measurements of self-healing polymers with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. The addition of SMA wires shows improvements of healed peak fracture loads by up to a factor of 1.6, approaching the performance of the virgin material. ...
