Characterization of Fuel Rods Supported by Dimple‐Less Spacer Grids and Subjected to Nonlinear Vibrations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An experimental campaign was undertaken to demonstrate the applicability of the Bouc–Wen hysteretic model to describe the hysteretic system of the recent Framatome dimple‐less spacer grid design for Pressurized Water Reactors. The experimental setup subjected a reduced‐length fuel rod, supported at both ends by dimple‐less grids, to forced ...

Interfacial Chemistry Behind Damage Monitoring in Glass Fiber‐Reinforced Composites: Attempts and Perspectives

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Role of the modifications at the interface in glass fiber reinforced composites for damage monitoring. ABSTRACT Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (GFRPs) are widely used in structural applications but degrade over time due to internal damage. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) enables early damage detection, improving reliability and reducing maintenance

Balancing Sustainability and Performance: Bio‐Based Epoxy Systems for Durable Flax Fiber‐Reinforced Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Bio‐based epoxy systems enabling sustainable, durable, and high‐performance flax fiber composites. ABSTRACT Three bio‐based epoxy systems—Polar Bear, Green Turtle, and Plankton—featuring bio‐carbon contents of 28% to 70%, were combined with recyclable (Recyclamine R101) and non‐recyclable hardeners to produce flax fiber‐reinforced biocomposites.
