Micromechanics of oxide inclusions in ferrous alloys

Oxide inclusions are inevitably present in steel as a direct consequence of the steelmaking process; as a result, a cubic centimetre of modern steel will generally contain about a million of these hard and brittle micrometre-sized ceramic particles. Inclus ...

Grid-Aware Real-Time Control of Electric Vehicles

Roman Rudnik

Electric vehicles (EVs) are already part of today's reality and their number is expected to grow rapidly in the near future. A large-scale penetration of EVs will increase the power consumption during charging periods. Hence, the uncoordinated and random c ...

Mechanical properties of a balsa wood veneer structural sandwich core material

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Niloufar Vahedi

Balsa wood is an appropriate core material for structural sandwich applications due to its high strength- and stiffness-to-weight ratios. However, the mechanical properties vary considerably owing to the inherent scattering of natural wood materials. One a ...

Depth-dependent mechanical properties of human articular cartilage obtained by indentation measurements

Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Robin Martin, Matteo Gregorio Modesto Marascio, Jens Antons

Emerging 3D printing technology permits innovative approaches to manufacture cartilage scaffolds associated with layer-by-layer mechanical property adaptation. However, information about gradients of mechanical properties in human articular cartilage is li ...

Low Carbon Pathways for Structural Design

Catherine Elvire L. De Wolf

To avoid an increase in greenhouse gas emissions, a depletion of resources, and waste accumulation, structural engineers have a major role to play in low carbon structural design. For example, cement- based materials represent one-third of all materials ex ...

Steel Columns under Multi-Axis Seismic Loading: Experimental Findings and Design Recommendations

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady

This paper summarizes the findings of two test programs that investigated the hysteretic behavior of wide-flange columns in steel moment-resisting frames. Both deep and shallow steel columns were examined. The members were subjected to unidirectional and b ...

Structural, tribo-mechanical, and thermal properties of NbAlN coatings with various Al contents deposited by DC reactive magnetron sputtering

Silviu Cosmin Sandu

DC reactive magnetron sputtered Nb2AlyNx coatings with various Al contents (y/(y + z)) ranging from 0 to 0.75 were deposited using different ratios of the currents applied to the Al and Nb targets in order to systematically control their chemical compositi ...

Hot deformation of a Fe-Mn-Al-C steel susceptible of κ-carbide precipitation

Roland Logé, Oscar Zambrano Zambrano

The mechanical properties of Fe-Mn-Al-C steel are significantly enhanced after κ-carbide precipitation via aging; however, most aging treatments are energy demanding because they require relatively high temperatures and extended holding times. This researc ...

Pre-dismantling THM modelling of the FEBEX in situ experiment.

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Yafei Qiao

FEBEX (Full-scale Engineered Barrier Experiment in Crystalline Host Rock) is a research and demonstration project that was initiated by ENRESA (Spain). The aim of the project is to study the behaviour of near-field components in a repository for high-level ...
