The development of residual strains and stresses is critical to manufacture composite structures with the required dimensional stability and mechanical performance. This work uses Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors to monitor strain build-up in carbon fiber ...
Grafting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) directly on carbon fibers represents a promising approach in order to strengthen the weak interface between carbon fibers and polymer matrix in carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites (CFRCs). We have carried out direct ...
A key element in stretchable actuators, sensors and systems based on elastomer materials are compliant electrodes. While there exist many methodologies for fabricating electrodes on dielectric elastomers, very few succeed in achieve high-resolution pattern ...
The mechanics of cracking in fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) under general loadings remains incomplete. The present paper addresses one outstanding aspect of this problem: the development of matrix cracks in unidirectional plies under she ...
Structured hierarchical catalysts were developed for efficient reduction of bromates in water. In the catalysts a small amount of active metal, 0.3 wt.% Pd, is supported onto carbon nanofibres grown either on sintered metal fibres or on a carbon cloth. In ...
Thin-ply composites represent a promising approach to further improve the performance of carbon fibre composite structures thanks to their ability to delay the onset of matrix cracking and delamination up to the point of fibre dominated failure. However, t ...
Alternative composite materials with antibacterial activity have been developed by combining the porosity of carbon materials and the antibacterial activity of half sandwich (cymene)Ru-curcumin complexes. Different types of activated carbon were used, from ...
Composite materials and, in particular, Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) have been well studied and developed in the past years due to their advanced mechanical characteristics. These materials are used in several different application fields, such ...
Layered fiber reinforced composite materials are prone to fracture in planes parallel to the direction of fibers leading to extensive delamination or intralaminar fracture. This phenomenon of crack propagation is frequently accompanied by significant incre ...
The hydrothermal ageing of glass/epoxy interface is investigated using an experimental numerical approach on cylindrical epoxy specimens with centrally located optical fibers. A 24 mm long Bragg grating sensor is inscribed on the optical fiber and used to ...
