Getting More Out of Existing Structures: Steel Bridge Strengthening via UHPFRC

Eugen Brühwiler

Ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced cement-based composite (UHPFRC) has been increasingly adopted for rehabilitation projects over the past two decades, proving itself as a reliable, cost-efficient and sustainable alternative against conventional metho ...

Environmental degradation of fracture resistance in high-temperature water environments of low-alloy reactor pressure vessel steels with high sulphur or phosphorus contents

Philippe Spätig, Hans-Peter Seifert, Zaiqing Que

The fracture behaviour of low-alloy reactor pressure vessel steels with various sulphur and phosphorus contents, different environmentally-assisted cracking (EAC) and temper embrittlement (TE) susceptibilities was evaluated by elastic plastic fracture mech ...

Variant selection in martensitic steels

Annick Pauline Baur

The martensitic phase transformation in steel is one of the most famous solid state transformation because of its contribution in the development of the modern industry. This transformation from a face-centered cubic (FCC) high temperature phase, called th ...

Towards the use of UHPFRC in railway bridges: the rehabilitation of Buna Bridge

Eugen Brühwiler, Dragan Damjanovic

In the last decade, Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced cement-based Composites (UHPFRC) have been increasingly implemented for rehabilitation and strengthening purposes, rendering outstanding results. The ease of application, along with their superior ...

Mixed mode I/II fatigue crack arrest in steel members using prestressed CFRP reinforcement

Alain Nussbaumer, Ardalan Hosseini, Masoud Motavalli, Elyas Ghafoori

In the present study, a strengthening design approach is proposed for the mixed mode I/II fatigue crack arrest in existing structural steel members using prestressed unbonded carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites. Through the analytical formula ...

Analysis of High Temperature Degradation of Alloys in Solid Oxide Fuel Cell

Manuel Bianco

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are approaching commercialization to improve power production efficiency. Currently, cost and lifetime reliability limit their spread in the market. The SOFC is ceramic-based, but refractory metal alloys are in fact the major ...

Designing high ductility in magnesium alloys

William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Zhaoxuan Wu, Rasool Ahmad

The thermally activated pyramidal-to-basal (PB) transition of (c + a) dislocations, transforming glissile pyramidal dissociated core structures into sessile basal dissociated ones, lies at the origin of low ductility in pure magnesium (Mg). Solute-accelera ...

Ex-situ experimental benchmarking of solid oxide fuel cell metal interconnects

Jan Van Herle, Manuel Bianco

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) can convert hydrocarbon fuels, such as methane, into heat and electricity with a high conversion efficiency. The fuel flexibility of the SOFC derives from the high operating temperature (600-900 °C). Such a high temperature s ...

Deformation-induced martensitic transformation under multiaxial loading

Wei-Neng Hsu

The deformation-induced martensitic transformation observed in specific materials can enhance their mechanical properties or result in functional properties. For example, the transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) effect results in a good combination of ...
