"Conducted disturbances in the frequency range 2-150 kHz : sources and propagation" by Caroline LEROI11 JunPour l’obtention du grade de Docteur en sciences de l’ingénieur et technologie Conducted disturbances in the frequency range 2-150 kHz have gained more interest over the last few years due to the evolution of the power grid. The traditional low frequency harmonics are indeed replaced by emissions in this frequency range due to the technological evolution towards self-commutating topologies.En savoir plus"Conducted disturbances in the frequency range 2-150 kHz : sources and propagation" by Caroline LEROI11 JunPour l’obtention du grade de Docteur en sciences de l’ingénieur et technologie Conducted disturbances in the frequency range 2-150 kHz have gained more interest over the last few years due to the evolution of the power grid.

Next-generation turbine technologies for greener propulsion systems by Sergio Lavagnoli (von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics)22 AprThe need and challenge of tackling climate change is an unrelenting priority. The goal has been set for the energy and mobility sectors to transition to greenhouse gas neutrality in Europe by 2050, while enhancing their competitiveness, availability and utility for citizens and society. The largest fraction of world-wide energy conversion relies on rotating fluid machinery.En savoir plusNext-generation turbine technologies for greener propulsion systems by Sergio Lavagnoli (von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics)22 AprThe need and challenge of tackling climate change is an unrelenting priority.

Laser powder bed fusion AlSi10Mg damage and fatigue resistance improvement by post-processing: by Juan Guillermo SANTOS MACIAS22 AprPour l’obtention du grade de Docteur en sciences de l’ingénieur et technologie Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) AlSi10Mg is a promising material for lightweight structural applications in the aerospace sector. Its fine microstructure grants high mechanical strength. However, there is still a gap in the understanding of the correlation between microstructure and mechanical behaviour.En savoir plusLaser powder bed fusion AlSi10Mg damage and fatigue resistance improvement by post-processing: by Juan Guillermo SANTOS MACIAS22 AprPour l’obtention du grade de Docteur en sciences de l’ingénieur et technologie Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) AlSi10Mg is a promising material for lightweight structural applications in the aerospace sector.
