Cette thèse s'est déroulée dans le cadre du projet TOLEDO (Tolérance aux dommages par impact des réservoirs hyperbares) piloté par Air Liquide en partenariat avec le CEA Le Ripault et l'institut PPRIME.L'hydrogène est stocké au sein de réservoirs de type IV à une pression de service de 700 bar.Ces structures composites présentent comme particularités d'être épaisses (&gt; 30 mm), d'avoir une forte courbure et d'être préchargées en pression lors d'un éventuel impact.Notre travail a montré que ces particularités modifient le type, la quantité et la localisation des différents endommagements cour

Abstract:
Mestrado em Materiais e Dispositivos Biomédicos<br>Bone is an extremely important connective tissue in the human body, as it provides support and protection of internal organs, being also metabolically relevant as the main mineral reservoir and assuring haematopoiesis through the bone marrow. Due to the current ageing of the population, an increase in bone tissue related diseases is noticeable. Thus, more efficient therapies for treating bone diseases is crucial. Tissue Engineering appears as a promising technology for treating several of those problems, such as bone loss and joint problems.

Abstract:
Two-dimensional cell cultures provide an inaccurate representation of how cells develop and are affected by disease and injury. Scaffold-based tissue engineering techniques that combine novel biomaterials and printing methods could assist in the design of more physiologically relevant, three-dimensional experimental tissue models. This thesis investigated the application of carbohydrate glass as a sacrificial material toward producing perfusable hydrogel devices using melt electrowriting, the development and optimisation of a three-dimensional bioengineered bone marrow microenvironment, and a

Abstract:
Weak mechanical strength of hydrogels in wet condition limits their use for load bearing applications. Their mechanical strength can be raised by grafting them over some support or by converting them into nanofibrous form. Present thesis is focused on the preparation of poly (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) hydrogel grafted over cotton fabric using two different cross-linkers i.e. PEG and MBAAm for making medicated dressing and nanofibers of hydrogel of poly (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid). FTIR was used to confirm the insertion of cross-links into the polymer chains. Grafting of uniform hydro

Abstract:
This thesis presents a study into the use of microgels to restore degenerated intervertebral discs (IVDs). This was undertaken using a pH-triggered microgel which was able to form self-supporting gels through an increase in pH. The microgels were based on the poly(A/MAA/X) formulation, where MAA is methacrylic acid and A is the structural and X is the crosslinking monomer. The microgel particles were also used to construct composite poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (PEGD) hydrogels. The properties of the microgels and the composite hydrogels were then investigated. Microgel particles were

>Magister Scientiae - MSc<br>Due to the rapid depletion of fossil fuel reserves and the production of environmentally harmful by-products such as carbon dioxide, there is an urgent need for alternate sustainable clean energy. One of the leading candidates in this endeavour is hydrogen, which can be used as an energy carrier since it has a high energy density, zero emissions and is produced from non-depletable resources such as water. The major challenge hindering a hydrogen economy is the lack of safe and effective storage technologies for mobile applications. A prospective solution to this pr

Abstract:
Silica-alumina composite membranes for hydrogen separation and high temperature chemical reactions were prepared using both conventional and modified dip-coating techniques. These were deposited on commercially available a.-alumina macroporous support of 10 millimetre (mm) outer diameter, 7 mm inner diameter and average pore size of 6000 nanometre (nm) wash coated with Titania. The reactants of the coating technique were silicone elastomer and isopentane promoted by a catalyst. The catalyst (silicone curing agent) was added as a templating agent to control the eventual adhesion and densificati

Abstract:
Switchable hydrogel-layered composite membranes can be used for the analysis of particle size distributions. This functionality is provided by pores with controllable diameter. In order to obtain a device that can be used to measure the cell size distribution in native biological samples, lots of switchable pores are required. In the current work, we model and simulate the mechanical behavior of active composite membranes with switchable pores. This is done in order to find the maximum number of pores that can be integrated into a membrane without cross-influencing effects on the actuation of
