Fibre orientation in SFRC slabs
The use of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC) is a well-known method for enhancing the punching and flexural resistances of flat slabs. Cores were extracted and scanned using micro-computed tomography (μ-CT) to reconstruct the fibre skeleton.
Fine-tuning chemistry to maximize performance
Microsupercapacitors (MSCs) are attractive for use as energy devices to power wearables, IoT, and other small microsystems. Additive fabrication of these devices will facilitate easy integration into a range of ubiquitous microsystem platforms.
“Breathing Time”
This PhD project, headed by the Swiss Human Institute of Forensic Taphonomy (SHIFT) and the Forensic Imaging and Anthropology Unit (UIAF) of the University Center of Legal Medicine of Lausanne/Geneva (CURML) is led in close collaboration with the PIXE platform of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL).
