    • EVALUATION OF THE FATIGUE RESPONSE OF POLYESTER YARNS AFTER THE APPLICATION OF ABRUPT TENSION LOADS 

      Author: Louzada, Emilio Luiz Vieira; Guilherme, Carlos Eduardo Marcos; Stumpf, Felipe Tempel
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2017)
      The discovery of oil fields in deeper waters through out the last decades has led the oil industry to the necessity of replacing the mooring systems of offshore platforms from steel to synthetic cables. Consequently, both ...
    • Experimental study of the torsional effect for yarn break load test of polymeric multifilaments 

      Author: da Cruz, Daniel Magalhães; Clain, Fernanda Mazuco; Guilherme, Carlos Eduardo Marcos
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2022)
      Polymeric multifilaments have gained a significant interest in recent decades. In the studies of mechanical characteristics, although there are different types of tests, such as rupture, abrasion, creep, impact and fatigue, ...
    • Post-impact mechanical characterization of HMPE yarns 

      Author: Belloni, Eduarda da Silva; Clain, Fernanda Mazuco; Guilherme, Carlos Eduardo Marcos
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2021)
      The present work evaluates the mechanical behaviour of High Modulus Polyethylene (HMPE) yarns after being impacted by sudden axial loads. The influence of loading conditions on the structural integrity of yarns is assessed ...
    • PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT OF THE CHANGE IN THE MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF SYNTHETIC YARNS SUBMITTED TO CONSECUTIVE STIFFNESS TESTS 

      Author: Stumpf, Felipe Tempel; Guilherme, Carlos Eduardo Marcos; Chimisso, Fulvio Enrico Giacomo
      (České vysoké učení technické v PrazeCzech Technical University in Prague, 2016)
      Anchoring systems of offshore platforms are designed to work uninterruptedly for 20 to 30 years, and despite the increasing number of studies concerning these systems’ mechanical behavior in working conditions, most of ...
