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.
This paper describes the development of a 2-DOF electrostatic haptic joystick designed for neuroscience studies in an MRI/fMRI. The joystick is fabricated using non-magnetic materials and actuated by two high-power electrostatic motor units which produce v ...
The first reported tensile semi-solid stress/strain data for as-cast magnesium alloy Mg Al3 Zn1 are provided. The results show that the maximum tensile stress at the solidus temperature (460 degrees C) was 13 MPa. Furthermore, this alloy has no ductility a ...
We report on the mechanical characterization and modeling of a non-prestretched dielectric elastomer diaphragm microactuator with ion-implanted electrodes under the influence of a distributed load (pressure). Thin polydimethysiloxane (PDMS) membranes (30 u ...
The present thesis is devoted to a detailed study of the Casimir force exerting between two parallel metallic plates whose conducting behaviour is described on the microscopic level. In the semi-classical regime, which corresponds to large separations and ...
We present an application of the conformal mapping (CM) method to determine the magnetic field and force in an electromechanical actuator. First, we show how to find, using a special type of CM known as the Schwarz-Christoffel mapping, the magnetic field i ...
Atomic force microscopy is being increasingly used to explore the physical properties of biological structures. This technique involves the application of a force to the sample and a monitoring of the ensuing deformation process. The available experimental ...
In a recent paper [R. Finn, Phys. Fluids 18, 047102 (2006)] the attention has been drawn on the tension component perpendicular to the solid surface that results from Young's law. Considering the problem of a solid sphere floating in zero gravity, it has b ...
This Master project concerns the electrostatic motors and focus essentially on the transverse force producing the torque. A study of this force is done with a glass sample and an electret sample under different input parameters such as the applied voltage, ...
Sandcastle worms Phragmatopoma californica build mound-like reefs by sticking together large numbers of sand grains with cement secreted from the building organ. The cement consists of protein plus substantial amounts of calcium and magnesium, which are no ...
At early age, ultra high performance fibre reinforced concretes (UHPFRC)undergo significant volumes changes (thermal deformation and autogenous shrinkage)related to their composition. These deformations can be restrained by different elements respective to ...
