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 constant improvement of polymer composite materials has allowed their integration in many industrial fields where their mechanical and chemical properties are apparently attractive. Mixed metal-composite insulators are now increasingly used for high vo ...
The present research represents a theoretical and experimental contribution to the understanding of the structural behaviour of elements made of ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC). UHPFRC is investigated as an advanced cementitious m ...
Ultra-High Performance Fibre-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) is a promising building material for applications where high compressive and tensile strengths, deformability and increased durability are required. Especially for the rehabilitation of existing str ...
Tensile tests have been performed on replicated aluminum alloy foams of relative density between 4.5% and 8%. During the test the electrical resistance was measured with a four-point set-up and the displacements along the gage section were measured using a ...
The extremely low permeability of Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concretes (UHPFRC)associated to their outstanding mechanical properties make them especially suitable to locally "harden" reinforced concrete structures in critical zones subjected t ...
Reinforced concrete being the most applied construction material today performs very well in most applications but still lacks durability under severe environmental conditions. Especially existing structures built decades ago show degradation. Using Ultra- ...
Orthodontic treatments are all based on the experimental evidence that teeth can be forced to move in the dental arch by means of applied mechanical forces. Since it allows for prediction of dental mobility, the mechanical characterization of the tissues i ...
This paper is an experimental and numerical investigation of desiccation and the associated cracking. First an elastic formulation of the hydro-mechanical problem is presented, based on an analogy that can be drawn with thermo-elasticity. Then, the results ...
Bending behaviour of members without ordinary reinforcement made of quasi-brittle materials (such as concrete or fibre-reinforced concrete) is subjected to size effect both in terms of strength and ductility. For a typical ultra-high performance fibre-rein ...
Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC), Second International Symposium on Ultra High Performance Concrete2008
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 ...
