Visualization and modelling of dynamic flow in fibrous preforms for liquid composite molding

Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

Nowadays, Liquid Composite Molding techniques are often used to manufacture high quality fiber reinforced composite parts at a relatively low cost. These involve an infiltration process, in which a liquid resin is forced to ingress into a dry fibrous porou ...

Recyclable flame retardant phosphonated epoxy based thermosets enabled via a reactive approach

Véronique Michaud, Valentin Rougier

The development of reusable fire-safe polymers with a prolonged lifetime heralds the switch for a transition towards circular economy. In this framework, we report a novel phosphonated thermoset which is composed of networked phosphonate esters containing ...

Controlling the Microstructure and Composition of 3D Printed Soft Load-Bearing Hydrogels

Matteo Hirsch

Hydrogels are among the first materials expressly designed for their use in biomedicine. However, state-of-the-art applications of hydrogels are severely limited because they are typically either too soft or too brittle such that they cannot bear significa ...

Capillary Effects in Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite Processing: A Review

Véronique Michaud, Jacobus Gerardus Rudolph Staal, Baris Çaglar, Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

Capillarity plays a crucial role in many natural and engineered systems, ranging from nutrient delivery in plants to functional textiles for wear comfort or thermal heat pipes for heat dissipation. Unlike nano- or microfluidic systems with well-defined por ...

Multi-scale experimental testing on variable stiffness and damping components for semi-active structural control

Gennaro Senatore

This paper presents experimental testing of a new semi-active vibration control device comprising a shape memory polymer (SMP) core that is reinforced by an SMP-aramid composite skin. This control device works as a load-transfer component that can be integ ...

Renforcement d'un pont à l'effort tranchant par couche de béton – textile

Arnaud Delfino

Le secteur de la construction constitue l’un des domaines les plus polluants de l’activité humaine. Ceci est principalement dû à la très large utilisation du béton, qui demande beaucoup d’énergie lors de la fabrication du clinker. De plus, la quantité de r ...

2021

Optical fibers have reshaped the technological landscape, from optical networks and high-speed data communication to in situ imaging and non-invasive surgery methods. The revolution allowed by these fibers has been made possible by its fabrication method, ...
