Complex interactions can be observed in hybrid transportation systems, where cars share the same road space with other modes such as motorcycles, bicycles or even e-scooters. In this work we further built upon the concept of mode dependent lane discipline. ...

In the evolution of structural glass beam elements, the requirements for post-fracture load bearing capacity and safe failure behaviour have led to the development of reinforced and post-tensioned beams. Maximum bending capacity in the post-fracture state ...

Buckled beams have become key building blocks in compliant mechanisms to achieve nonlinear behaviors, such as bistability, constant-force and stiffness tuning. However, designing and modeling such components is challenging due to their highly nonlinear cha ...

L'hybridation, catalyseur de mixité fonctionnelle et sociale pour le quartier de Grosselin

A Genève, comme dans de nombreuses métropoles, la problématique de la gestion des bureaux vacants est primordiale et se traduit par de nombreuses surfaces de travail qui ne trouvent pas (ou plus) preneur. Alors que la ville ne cesse de se densifier, il par ...

This paper examines the influence of framing action and slab continuity on the hysteretic behavior of composite steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) by means of high-fidelity continuum finite-element (CFE) analyses of two-bay subsystems and typical crucifo ...

An Analytical Model for Beam Flexure Modules Based on Timoshenko Beam Theory

Simon Nessim Henein, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan, Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty

Short beams are the key building blocks in many compliant mechanisms. Hence, deriving a simple yet accurate model of their elastokinematics is an important issue. Since the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory fails to accurately model these beams, we use the Timos ...

Environomic design of hybrid electric vehicles

François Maréchal, Zlatina Kirilova Dimitrova

The improvement of the efficiency of vehicle energy systems promotes an active search to find innovative solutions during the design process. Engineers can use computer-aided processes to find automatically the best design solutions. This kind of approach ...

Efficiency Improvement for Vehicle Powertrains Using Energy Integration Techniques

François Maréchal, Zlatina Kirilova Dimitrova

The main design criteria for the modern sustainable development of vehicle powertrains are the high energy efficiency of the conversion system, the competitive cost and the lowest possible environmental impacts. The need for efficiency improvement of the v ...
