Influence of ferroelectric domain texture on the performance of multilayer piezoelectric actuators
Abstract Lead zirconate titanate (PZT)-based multilayer piezoelectric actuators (MAs) present a maximum in their piezoelectric properties when pre-stressed with a low mechanical load (ca. 50MPa) along the longitudinal axis of the actuator. In this...

Installation of a Concentrated Solar Power System for the Thermal Needs of Buildings or Industrial Processes
Abstract Solar energy is one of the main alternatives to carbon-intensive sources of energy. However, limited attention has been devoted to small-scale (<10 kW) concentrated solar power systems, which are capable to provide high-temperature heat...

Response of Natural Sisal Reinforced Polyester Composites to Three-point and Four-point Bending
Abstract In engineering, prevention of failure of materials is of cardinal importance. Once failure can be predicted and anticipated fairly correctly, timely corrective measures can be taken to avert catastrophes. This way, costs would be reduced...

Efficiency of thermal outgassing for tritium retention measurement and removal in ITER
Abstract As a licensed nuclear facility, ITER must limit the in-vessel tritium (T) retention to reduce the risks of potential release during accidents, the inventory limit being set at 1kg. Simulations and extrapolations from existing experiments...
