Abstract [eng] |
New strong materials are in demand in many sectors, leading to the development of different hybrid structures. These can be made from dissimilar light materials such as aluminium alloys, which are joined by incorporating reinforcing fillers into the weld, or self-compacting fibre-reinforced concrete, which is reinforced using fibres. However, creating new materials is not without its problems. The process parameters can be imperfect or are affected by different variables or unforeseen circumstances. The quality of the structure can be affected and the performance of the loaded structure could be unexpected. To see how these different reinforcements influence the properties of materials, Prof Dr Elena Jasiuniene, Ultrasound Research Institute, Kaunas University of Technology, uses X-ray computed tomography to allow her to peer inside the structures of materials and reconstruct them in three dimensions. |
