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.
The behaviour of brittle matrix fibre reinforced-composites is dependent of the properties of its constituents (fibre, matrix and fibre-matrix interface) and is affected by the mechanical and environmental loads. The fracture of a unidirectional composite ...
This paper presents a new concept for a lightweight hybrid- FRP bridge deck. The sandwich construction consists of three layers: a fiber-reinforced polymer composite (FRP) sheet with T-upstands for the tensile skin, lightweight concrete (LC) for the core a ...
The aim of this thesis is to assess the feasibility of integrating nanoparticles into glass fiber (GF) reinforced isotactic polypropylene (iPP) composites via existing thermoplastic processing routes, and to investigate whether this results in significant ...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites offer several advantages in relation to traditional materials, such as high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, low thermal conductivity and rapid component installation. Despite the great potential of th ...
Dendritic hyperbranched polymers have been shown to be able to double the interlaminar fracture resistance of epoxy-based composites and to reduce the internal stress level by as much as 80% with only 10 phr of modifier. These property improvements were ob ...
Analytical and numerical electro-mechanical models are developed to predict the electrical resistance change due to fatigue damage in unidirectional fiber reinforced composite materials. Fatigue is attributed to underlying fatigue crack growth of pre-exist ...
This paper presents results of experimental and numerical investigations on double-lap joints composed of pultruded GFRP profiles and polyurethane adhesive subjected to quasi-static axial tensile loading. The objective was to investigate the effect of the ...
Adhesively bonded joints are being used increasingly in civil engineering structures, especially for joints comprising pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates. The layered material architecture, however, leads to a complex delamination fa ...
A partially embedded long fibre-Bragg grating (FBG) into an epoxy cylindrical specimen is used to monitor the strain distribution evolution along its axis when subjected to subsequent cycles of thermal ageing at 70 and 110 degrees C. Assuming a total volum ...
Genetic programming is used in this paper for modeling the fatigue life of several fiber-reinforced composite material systems. It is shown that if the genetic programming tool is adequately trained, it can produce theoretical predictions that compare favo ...
