Directionality-Aware Design of Embroidery Patterns

Embroidery is a long-standing and high-quality approach to making logos and images on textiles. Nowadays, it can also be performed via automated machines that weave threads with high spatial accuracy. A characteristic feature of the appearance of the threa ...

Indentation and stability of woven domes

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Célestin Vallat, Tian Chen, Tomohiko Sano, Samuel Jean Bernard Poincloux

Discrete domes are doubly curved structures comprising a network of beam-like elements. We study the mechanics of discrete domes made of ribbons woven in a pentagonal triaxial pattern. Experiments and finite element simulations are performed to characteriz ...

On the Fabric of a 3D Printed Soil

Alessio Ferrari

3D printing of earthen materials is on the rise in the field of Additive Manufacturing (AM) due to the opportunity this technique offers to realize structures and manufacts with low environmental impacts, but very little is known about the hydromechanical ...

3D Weaving with Curved Ribbons

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Tian Chen, Yingying Ren, Samuel Jean Bernard Poincloux, Francis Julian Panetta, Christopher Brandt

Basket weaving is a traditional craft for creating curved surfaces as an interwoven array of thin, flexible, and initially straight ribbons. The three-dimensional shape of a woven structure emerges through a complex interplay of the elastic bending behavio ...

Investigation of the thermal conductivity of SiC/SiC cladding before and after irradiation

Loïc Guillaume Fave

Silicon carbide based composites are candidates for structural components and fuel claddings in nuclear power plants. In the frame of accident tolerant fuel research, the effective through-thickness thermal conductivity of SiC/SiC prototype claddings is in ...

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, ...

Methodology for evaluating new high volume composite manufacturing technologies

Simon Jespersen

Composite materials are increasingly used in high volume automotive applications, usually as a replacement for assemblies of multiple metallic parts such as stamped and spot-welded steel sheets. One of the motivations is to reduce tooling and assembly cost ...
