An efficient fuzzy non-deterministic approach for structural finite element analysis (Efficiënte vaagheidsgevoelige methode voor structurele eindige-elementen analyse) KU Leuven
Virtual prototyping is a standard tool for the design of mechanical products in a range of engineering application fields. Different virtual prototyping techniques based on numerical simulations enable performance evaluations in early design phases without building physical prototypes. Numerical simulation techniques allow fast and cheap design response prediction, which explains their high value as design evaluation and optimisation tool.In any ...

Aerospace-grade surface mounted optical fibre strain sensor for structural health monitoring on composite structures evaluated against in-flight conditions Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Optical fibre sensors are being investigated since many years as candidates of choice for supporting structural health monitoring (SHM) in aerospace applications. Fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensors, more specifically, can provide for accurate strain measurements and therefore return useful data about the mechanical strain state of the structure to which they are attached. This functionality can serve the detection of damage in an aircraft ...
SMARTFIBER: enabling cost-effective, miniaturized structural health-monitoring of composite structures Ghent University
Experimental investigations on hot-driven structural rivets in historical French and Belgian wrought-iron structures (1880s–1890s) Vrije Universiteit Brussel
When assessing the structural safety of historical metal structures, the understanding of the construction materials, their properties and modes of construction is a prior concern. Available information on histor- ical riveted connections, however, is very limited. Analyzing the present state of these connections to bet- ter understand their actual structural behaviour is therefore essential. Through experimental work, we investigated the ...

The structure of personality disorders: Comparing the DSM-IV-TR Axis II classification with the Five-Factor Model framework using structural equation modeling. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Earlier factor analytical studies on the empirical validity of the DSM-IV(-TR) Axis II classification have offered little support for the current three-cluster structure. In his large-scale meta-analysis of previously published personality disorder (PD) correlation matrices, O'Connor (2005) found four factors, corresponding to the Neuroticism, Extraversion, Agreeableness and Conscientiousness domains of the Five-Factor Model of personality. In ...
