The use of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) composites has grown in popularity over the last few decades. They offer outstanding mechanical properties combined with a low density, making them an excellent solution for many ...
This work is focused on the production and characterization of: (1) Fe based nanocrystalline soft magnetic materials of NANOPERM and HITPERM families and (2) Heusler magnetic shape memory alloys. Within the first typology, ...
El sector de pasta i paper és considerat un dels set sectors industrials més intensius en consum energètic. La producció i consum d'electricitat i de vapor esdevenen les fonts majoritàries d'emissions de gasos d'efecte ...
Adhesives have been shown to be an excellent solution for joining fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) components thanks to their capacity to redistribute loads, reduces stress concentrations and contribute to overall weight ...
The use of the stiffened panels in the aircraft/aeronautical industry has been growing in the last decades. On the other hand, the exponential growth in the use of composite materials in the last years has had a ...
Currently, the use of Automated Fiber Placement technology allows, large composite aircraft components to be manufactured with high quality materials and introduce new laminate concepts. Among such concepts are the tow-steered ...
The main objective of work has been to study the bond strength and bond-slip response of NSM CFRP strips in concrete when subjected to sustained loading under different environmental conditions. To this end, two experimental ...
The rehabilitation of civil structures has been gaining importance during the last decades. Owing to their mechanical, corrosion resistance and lightweight properties, Carbon Fibre-Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) present an ...
In recent years, additive manufacturing technologies (3D printing) have been introduced in different fields, such as locomotion and bioengineering, among others. Extrusion by Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) or Fused ...
Cohesive zone models are widely used for modelling delamination and bonded joints under different loading conditions. In the current thesis, an objective inverse method has been developed to extract the cohesive law from ...
Coming from renewable and sustainable raw materials, nanocelluloses are rapidly emerging as one of the most promising future materials. Recently, the use of nanocellulose nanocomposites in flexible electrodes, biosensors ...
This thesis investigates the fatigue behaviour of fibre-reinforced composite laminates. Fatigue of composite materials is a complex subject both from an experimental and numerical modelling point of view. In this context, ...
To overcome the challenges coming from environmental impacts has been a priority for the aeronautical sector in the past years, with a special focus on reducing CO2 emissions. The fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP) are ...
El desarrollo de la sostenibilidad en la edificación ha realizado un gran avance en los últimos diez años, mejoras en la eficiencia energética de los edificios con la incorporación del certificado de eficiencia energética ...
The main motivation of this work was to analyse the feasibility of the current stent’s manufacturing process to produce the new bioresorbable stents (BRS) as well as study new manufacturing methods. Fibre Laser Cutting ...
The threat of impact on laminated composite structures has been a serious concern in the aerospace industry and scientific community because the compression load-carrying capacity of the structures, namely Compression 1/2 After ...
Polymeric materials, which are suitable for high performance applications for example human implants are one of the most expensive available polymers. Standard injection micromoulding process, dedicated for mass production, ...
Nowadays, energy is absolutely necessary all over the world. Taking into account the advantages that it presents in transport and the needs of homes and industry, energy is transformed into electricity. Bearing in mind ...
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 15-20% of the breast cancers and displays an aggressive profile, poor prognosis, high relapse risk and does not have a targeted therapy. In the last years, breast cancer ...
Advanced joining technologies such as bonded joints play an important role to develop more efficient and durable structures. The present Thesis gives a step forward and proposes different solutions to characterise the ...
