Teixidó, Helena (author), Broggi, G.C. (author), Caglar, Baris (author), Michaud, Véronique (author)We propose a methodology to monitor the progressive saturation of a non-translucent unidirectional carbon fabric stack through its thickness by means of X-ray radiography and extract the dynamic saturation curves using image analysis. Four constant flow rate injections with increasing flow speed were carried out. These were simulated by a...journal article 2023

Zumstein, Marco (author), Chen, Qian (author), Adey, Bryan T. (author), Hall, Daniel M. (author)How bridge refurbishment projects are performed requires a trade-off between the speed and cost of the project and the amount of traffic disturbances during the project. A possible way to help reach a better balance between these two extremes is the ASTRA Bridge developed in Switzerland. The ASTRA Bridge is a 236-meter long steel ramp system...journal article 2022

Griffioen, Laurence (author)Carbon mineralization is a form of carbon utilization in which carbon dioxide is reacted with a calcium or magnesium-bearing mineral, herewith forming a carbonate. Previous research has found that mineralization shows the ability to permanently store large amounts of CO2 while at the same time delivering a product of potential added value,...master thesis 2021
