Dr Martina Scapin (Politecnico di Torino)6/3/24, 9:30 AM
If a structure is loaded or deformed, the atoms within the material are displaced and the material responds with a deformation. This deformation determines the mechanical behaviour of the material. Different types of deformation exist. In particular, it can be possible to distinguish reversible deformations, with the deformation disappearing after unloading, and irreversible deformations that...

Pressure vessels are leakproof containers. They may be of any shape: they commonly have the form of spheres, cylinders, cones, ellipsoids or some composite of them. A common design is a cylinder with end caps called heads. Vessels or shells are considered to be formed of curve plate in which the thickness is small in comparison with the other dimensions, offering little resistance to bending...

Accelerator components need to be designed such that they are robust and reliable in order to produce a maximum of beam time during its long lifetime. A key factor to reach such level is the quality of the engineering specifications described on 2D drawings and used for fabrication.

Designing a system is a complex process and there are a lot of people involved with different competencies. All competencies should be complementary to each other with some overlap, and everyone should have the same goal. Everyone is giving their best to reach the goal to the best of their capabilities. Oftentimes, manufacturing knowledge is not taken into account because a supplier is not yet...

Beam-intercepting devices (BIDs) are components of particle accelerator facilities that partially or completely intercept the particle beam. BIDs can be distinguished in three categories, depending on their function: targets generate secondary particles; collimators and scrapers clean up the beam and protect the beam line from damage and/or activation; beam dumps absorb the beam after it... -
