The present study investigates the environmental durability of a distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS) cable on the market, commonly used for distributed strain measurements in reinforced concrete structures. An extensive experimental program was conducted on different types of specimens (including samples of bare DOFS cable and plain concrete s...

Evaluating the value of health care is of paramount importance to keep improving patients' quality of life and optimizing associated costs. Our objective was to present a calculation method based on Michael Porter's formula and standard references to estimate patient value delivered by total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). We retrospectively reviewed ...
The development of composites based on plant fibres has considerably grown in last decades; however, their high sensitivity to moisture limits their use in structural applications. The objective of this study is to determine and understand the impact of moisture variations during one-year cyclic hygrothermal ageing i.e. 52 cycles on the transverse ...

Interactive pedestrian simulators have become a valuable research tool for investigating street-crossing behavior and developing solutions for improving pedestrian safety. There are two main kinds of pedestrian simulators: one uses a technology based on rear-projection screens (Cave Automatic Virtual Environment, or CAVE), the other a head-mounted ...
Increasing environmental concern has put forward the use of flax fibers instead of glass fibers in composite materials. However, durability performances of these bio-fibers remain one of their main issues. This study focuses on the hydrothermal aging of flax fibers. Flax tows were immersed in distilled water at a temperature of 80 °C for different ...
