Mechanical characterization of bio-based composite/metal laminates for an application in street furniture
2019
In this work, it is proposed to study the influence of three manufacturing parameters in the development of bio-basedcomposite/steel hybrids. These parameters arethe methodof assembly between composite and metal, the distribution of composite and steellayers throughthe thicknessof the hybrid,and the stacking sequence of the composite part of the hybrid. The study was conducted through impact tests at different energies and quasi-static three-point bending tests. For each of these parameters, the influenceon the mechanical properties of the hybrid is evaluated.The results show that these properties depend essentially on the relative distribution of steel and composite through the thickness.
Implementation and optimization of the properties of a sandwich structure in biobased materials (fibres and Hemp wood) with an expanded polystyrene m…

Due to the rapidly improving functionality of building materials, and increasingly complicated human resource management issues, the traditional cement-based building materials of the past are becoming less and less desirable.These outdated materials are being replaced by new structures of wall that better optimize choices of materials and their layouts. In this study, we propose a multi-function structure to be the unit of a typical wall (individual house), which can be produced via the use of inexpensive materials and classic manufacturing processes. To achieve this, we chose the renewable agricultural source of the hemp plant (hemp yarns and hemp shive particles), along with recycled exp…
Development of bio-based epoxy systems for dry-impregnated vegetables fiber composites implementation
2022
Prepregs find industrial applications thanks to their high thermomechanical properties and easy implementation. However, they have two major drawback. First, they needto be carried and stored at low temperature. The second drawback is linked to the use of solvent in the future matrix, generating VOCs during thermocompression process. Those two points leads to environmental and economical overcharges resolved by a new dry impregnation process developed by Fibroline company. Those PhD works are reporting the synthesis and formulation of a biobased powder system with a low environmental impact, non-toxic for humans and compatible with dry impregnation for fully bio-based composites implementat…

In the perspectives of the future city, the progressive use of autonomous vehicles seems to become unavoidable. The preparation of an adequate framework for the deployment of this future mobility represents an important issue. This requires revisiting the urban infrastructures of cities from the choice of material to the design, and to propose solutions based on mobile street furniture. Faced with this challenge, hybrid materials such fibre metal laminates (FML) present interesting characteristics. FML made of plant fibre composites are of particular interest to minimize their environmental impact. Thus, the objective of this thesis is to design and manufacture plant-fibre metal laminates a…
