Digging supplementary buried channels: investigating the notch architecture within the CCD pixels on ESA's Gaia satellite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The European Space Agency (ESA) Gaia satellite has 106 CCD image sensors which will suffer from increased charge transfer inefficiency (CTI) as a result of radiation damage.

Tensions of Sustainability Logics: Performance of a Company Utilizing a Sustainable Business Model

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, companies have used sustainable business models to gain a competitive advantage. However, there are tensions due to the inconsistency between social, environmental, and economic logic in sustainable business models, making it difficult for companies to change. To understand the existing tensions and interactions between logics,

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

Measurement of local strain and heat propagation during high-temperature testing in a split-Hopkinson tension bar system

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
Aluminium alloys are commonly used by the industry due to their good mechanical properties and their relatively low density. An accurate prediction of the behaviour of aluminium alloys under a wide range of temperatures and strain rates is important in ...

Séparation et reconstruction des ondes dans les barres élastiques et viscoélastiques à partir de mesures redondantes

open access: yes, 2001
International audienceWhen using a classical SHPB (Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar) set-up, the useful measuring time is limited by the need of separating the waves propagating in opposite directions.

Electromagnetic Compressive Split Hopkinson Bar

open access: yes, 2008
This paper proposes a new design for the compressive split Hopkinson bar that makes use of the intense pressure created in a transient magnetic field formed by the passage of a pulse of electric current through a series of coils. The proposed technology enables to characterize the behaviour of materials under high strain-rates with a small acceleration

A New Specimen Geometry for Compression Hopkinson Bars [PDF]

open access: yesLe Journal de Physique IV, 1997
This work is concerned with experimental characterization of materials with compression Hopkinson bars. First we point out the importance of friction, elastic punching and parasitic bending on the results of static compression tests with standard cylindrical specimens.

Exploring wave propagation behaviors in rock: A grain‐based perspective on mineral structures

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates wave propagation in rock at the grain scale using a grain‐based model, revealing that mineral elastic modulus significantly influences wave attenuation while grain size and distribution have limited effects. A novel peak particle velocity attenuation prediction model is proposed and validated for grain‐scale wave propagation ...

Size matters: the value of small populations for wintering waterbirds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Protecting systematically selected areas of land is a major step towards biodiversity conservation worldwide. Indeed, the identification and designation of protected areas more often than not forms a core component of both national and international ...
