Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Fracture tests have been performed on 333 flexure hinges of various shapes machined in monocrystalline silicon by Deep Reactive Ion Etching. The results show the significant effects of stress concentration, crystalline orientation and surface treatments on ...
The embrittlement of metallic systems by hydrogen is a widespread phenomenon but the precise role of hydrogen in this process is not well understood and predictive mechanisms are not available. Here, a new model is proposed wherein hydrogen accumulation ar ...
Effects of non-uniform strains on tensile fracture of fiber-reinforced ceramic–matrix composites have not been satisfactorily explained by existing mechanics-based models. In this paper, we use an exact model of fiber fragmentation under global load sharin ...
Fracture experiments in a notched semi-circular bend configuration were conducted to characterize rate effects and failure micromechanisms of a marble using a servo-hydraulic machine and a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar. Three real-time measurement ...
Limited reliability of ferroelectric-based actuators restricts their use in high-performance applications, where stress-induced cracking of ferroelectric ceramics often leads to fatal failure. The main limiting factors are the relatively small fracture tou ...
The Mode I and II fracture behaviors of adhesively-bonded joints composed of pultruded glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates were experimentally investigated using Double-Cantilever-Beam (DCB) and End-Loaded-Split (ELS) specimens. The large speci ...
Hydrogen embrittlement is a pervasive mode of degradation in many metallic systems that can occur via several mechanisms. Here, the competition between dislocation emission and cleavage at a crack tip is evaluated in the presence of H. At this level, embri ...
The SELFRAC project aimed to study the fractures within the Excavation Damaged Zone (EDZ) around galleries in the Boom clay and Opalinus clay formations and their possible sealing/healing with time. Tests carried out at LMR-EPFL aimed at quantifying on the ...
Being good structural replacement for other conventional material, the pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) profiles are being increasingly used in civil engineering structures. The connection between components is considered the most suspect ar ...
The influence of internal stress anisotropy resulting from anisotropic loading in a roll-to-roll (R2R) process, and polymer substrate anisotropy on the crack onset strain (COS) of thin oxide coatings was analyzed. Experimental data obtained for R2R process ...
