Design criteria of tubular linear induction motors and generators: A prototype realization and its characterization
2013
In this paper a mathematical model of tubular linear induction machines (TLIM) with hollowed induced part is recalled. Moreover the design criteria of a TLIM with hollowed iron induced part are presented as well as the technological processes to be adopted and the choice of materials to construct the various parts. The methodologies for mechanical assembling and electric wiring are considered too. A prototype with bimetallic induced part has been designed and built. Finally some experimental results on electrical and mechanical variables, when the machines are used as motors, are shown.
Delamination of 2D coordination polymers : the role of solvent and ultrasound
2019
Two novel cadmium-based 2D coordination polymers have been synthesized and characterized. Experimental results evidence that the best delamination processes occurs when weak interactions dominate the cohesion between layers and solvent molecules are occluded within the crystalline network. In this case, the delamination of the crystals occurs spontaneously in water. On top of that, and thanks to the high stability of the resulting (flake) colloidal dispersions, we have completed a detailed study of the sonication assisted delamination impact by: I) comparison of two different sonication approaches (bath vs. tip sonication) and II) optimization of final flake morphology and yield by controll…
Solvent-tuned ultrasonic synthesis of 2D coordination polymer nanostructures and flakes
2021
Highlights • Combined ultrasound and solvent assisted synthesis of 2D coordination polymers. • Role of interstitial solvent molecules in the delamination of 2D-CPs. • Influence of the sonication time in delamination and nanostructuration processes. • Morphological and supramolecular transformations in 2D-CPs.
Numerical experimental analysis of hybrid double lap aluminum-CFRP joints
2015
Abstract Due to their reliability and ease of assembly, both the adhesively bonded and the mechanical joints are commonly used in different fields of modern industrial design and manufacturing, to joint composite materials or composites with metals. As it is well known, adhesively bonded joints are characterized by high stiffness and good fatigue life, although delamination phenomena localized near the free edges may limit their use, especially for applications where corrosive environments and/or moisture can lead to premature failure of the bonding. In these cases, a possible alternative is given by the well-known mechanical joints. On the contrary, these last joints (bolted, riveted) requ…
EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL EVALUATION OF THE MECHANICAL BEHAVIOUR OF GFRP SANDWICH PANELS
2007
This work deals with the analysis of the mechanical behaviour of a class of sandwich structures widely employed in marine constructions, constituted by fiber-glass laminate skins over PVC foam or polyester mat cores. In detail, a systematic experimental study and numerical simulations have shown that the theoretical prediction of the strength and the actual failure mechanism of these sandwich structures can be affected by significant errors, specially in the presence of prevalent shear loading. Moreover, because of the low shear stiffness and the elastic constants mismatch of the skins and core material, failure modes and strength are strongly influenced by eventual stresses orthogonal to t…
Comparison of numerical modelling techniques for impact investigation on a wind turbine blade
2019
Wind turbine blades are exposed to numerous impact risks throughout their lifetimes. The impact risks range from bird collisions during operation to impacts with surrounding structures at the time of transportation and installation. Impact loads on the fibre composite blades can induce several complex, simultaneously interacting and visually undetectable damage modes and have a high potential to reduce the local and global blade stiffness. An assessment of such impact-induced damages is therefore necessary and usually involves high computational costs using numerical procedures, especially when analysing large composite components. To minimise this computational expense, different numerical…
Solvent-Induced Delamination of a Multifunctional Two Dimensional Coordination Polymer
2012
A coordination polymer is fully exfoliated by solvent-assisted interaction only. The soft-delamination process results from the structure of the starting material, which shows a layered structure with weak layer-to-layer interactions and cavities with the ability to locate several solvents in an unselective way. These results represent a significant step forward towards the production of structurally designed one-molecule thick 2D materials with tailored physico-chemical properties.
Drilling characteristics and properties analysis of fiber reinforced polymer composites: A comprehensive review
2023
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites play a vital role in the production of structural and semi-structural components for engineering applications. The drilling process is a commonly employed machining process for FRP composites to join the FRP structural elements. Usually, the FRP composites possess a heterogeneous nature because of their multi-layered structure, hybridization, and the presence of multi-phase materials. Hence, common problems like delaminations, fuzzing, buckling, cracking, matrix and fiber burning occur during the drilling operations. These problems cause dimensional inaccuracy, poor surface finish, and tool wear and reduce the mechanical strength of the composites. …
Effet de l'orientation des fibres des plis adjacents sur la résistance au délaminage en mode I pur = Effect of the fibre's orientation of adjacent pl…
2009
National audience; Ce travail concerne l'étude de l'effet de l'orientation des fibres des plis adjacents à la fissure dans une éprouvette DCB (Double Cantilever Beam) sur la résistance au délaminage en mode I pur. Afin d'isoler l'influence de l'orientation l'étude porte sur des stratifiés particuliers ayant tous les mêmes matrices de comportement global A B D. Les résultats expérimentaux montrent une grande variation de résistance au délaminage GIC et des courbes R selon l'orientation des plis situés de part et d'autre du plan de fissure. Une modélisation par éléments finis permet de mettre en évidence l'importance de l'état de contraintes locales et donc de l'endommagement au voisinage du …
Laminations and tilings of the Hyperbolic upper half plane
2005
This thesis is devoted to the study of dynamical systems associated with tilings of theEuclidean plane or of the Hyperbolic half-plane. A such tiling codes an action of a group ofisometries (namely the group of translations of the plane or the group of affine maps) on a compactmetric space $\Omega$ such that the properties of this action are related with the combinatoricproperties of the tiling. The behaviors of the actions obtained by this way are really various. Insome cases, like for example for the Penrose's tiling, this action is free and minimal. This givesto the set $\Omega$ a structure of a specific lamination called {\it solenoid}. This space islocally the product of a Cantor set w…
