An Open-Frame Loading Stage for High-Resolution X-Ray CT Open
The utilisation of high-resolution in situ computed tomography (CT) in the (sub-)μm range is typically only viable in synchrotron facilities, as the deployment of a conventional loading stage in laboratory CTs with a cone beam source does …
An Open Frame Loading Stage for High-Resolution Microtomography Open
High-resolution in-situ CT measurements in the (sub-)$\upmu$m range are typically only feasible in synchrotron facilities, as the use of a conventional loading stage in laboratory CTs with a cone beam source does not permit a corresponding…
A Feasibility Study of In-Situ Damage Visualization in Basalt-Fiber Reinforced Polymers with Open-Source Digital Volume Correlation Open
This work analyses damage formation within the bulk of basalt fiber-reinforced polymers (BFRP) by means of open-source Digital Volume Correlation (DVC). Volumetric image data were obtained from conventional in-situ X-Ray computed micro-tom…
Mechanical Properties of a Unidirectional Basalt-Fiber/Epoxy Composite Open
High-performance composites based on basalt fibers are becoming increasingly available. However, in comparison to traditional composites containing glass or carbon fibers, their mechanical properties are currently less well known. In parti…
A Simplified Design for a Split-Hopkinson Tension Bar with Long Pulse Duration Open
This paper presents a simplified design for a Split-Hopkinson Tension Bar (SHTB) which allows for pulse durations exceeding one millisecond. This testing apparatus is intended for material characterization requiring large amounts of elonga…
