Development of a method for the characterisation of the compliance and stiffness matrices of uncoupled laminates
Gachon, Carine (Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology, 1999)The mechanical behaviour of composite materials is defined by three matrices of stiffness/compliance : in-plane, flexure and coupling matrix between in-plane and flexure. The present work gives a method of test to ... -
Electronic learning methods compared to face to face learning.
Hands, Colman Luke (Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology, 2011)Electronic learning or e-leaning is becoming increasingly popular. With the increasing emphasize on the benefits of E-leaning. Does this mean that e-leaning is a system lacking in any limitations? This paper sets out in ... -
Factors influencing the mechanical behaviour of small devices such as stents
Gachon, Carine (Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology, 2003)A coronary stent is a mechanical device designed to open arteries that have been occluded. The manufacturing of stents involves the laser cutting of specific designs in stainless steel tubes. In order to determine factors ...
