The main issue of wood is its sensitivity to Relative Humidity (RH) variations, affecting its dimensional stability, and thus leading to crack formations and propagations. In situ structural health monitoring campaigns imply the use of portable noninvasive techniques such as acoustic emission, used for real-time detection of energy released when cracks form and grow. This paper proposes a calibration method, i.e., acoustic emission, as an early warning tool for estimating the length of new formed cracks. The predictability of ductile and brittle fracture mechanisms based on acoustic emission features was investigated, as well as climate-induced damage effect, leading to a strain-hardening mechanism. Tensile tests were performed on specimens submitted to a 50% RH variation and coated with chemicals to limit moisture penetration through the radial surfaces. Samples were monitored for acoustic emission using a digital camera to individuate calibration curves that correlated the total emitted energy with the crack propagation, specifically during brittle fracture mechanism, since equations provide the energy to create a new surface as the crack propagates. The dynamic surface energy value was also evaluated and used to define a Locus of Equilibrium of the energy surface rate for crack initiation and arrest, as well as to experimentally demonstrate the proven fluctuation concept.

In this paper, we demonstrated that the gradual formation of a surface relief grating (SRG) in azopolymer thin films under continuous light exposure could be directly observed in situ and in real-time, allowing full-field characterization.

ABSTRACTIn-situ spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) was applied to monitor GaAs (100) surface changes induced at elevated temperatures inside an ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) chamber (<1×10−9 torr base pressure, without As overpressure). The real time data showed clearly the evolution of the native-oxide desorption at ∼577°C, on a molecular-beam-epitaxy (MBE)-grown GaAs (100) surface. In addition, surface degradation was found before and after the oxide desorption. A clean and smooth surface was obtained from an arsenic-capped, MBE-grown GaAs sample, after the arsenic coating was evaporated at ∼350 °C inside the UHV. Pseudodielectric functions <ε>GaAs, from 1.6 eV to 4.5 eV, were obtained through the SE measurements, from this oxide-free surface, at temperatures ranging from room temperature (RT) to ∼610 °C. These <ε> data were used as reference data to develop an algorithm for determining surface temperatures from in-situ SE measurements, thus turning the SE instrument into a sensitive optical thermometer.

The effect of a magnetic field on the anodic dissolution of iron in 1.0 mol dm-3 trichloroacetic acid solution was studied by the potentiodynamic polarization method and in situ digital holography. It was found that the magnetohydrodynamic force increased the mass transport, which resulted in a faster anodic dissolution of iron. The effect of the magnetic field was analyzed by holograms and is discussed in terms of the magnetohydrodynamic force.
