    subject. However, any defect of liner systems can put environment at risk due to the possible leakage. A large number of factors could cause the landfill liner failures in different ways. One of the main factor is provided by not enough interface shear strength of the composite liner. Landfills liner is composed of various geosynthetic and soil components (Jogi, 2005). For domestic waste systems, the basic structure unit of landfill liner is normally regarded as geosynthetic layer in contact with compacted

    Heat Treatment and Qualitative Metallographic Analysis Lab ME 3228: Mechanics & Materials Laboratory Summary Comparing a material's initial treatment and the microstructures that are formed from different processes, an engineer can accurately understand why certain treated materials of the same family can be stronger than another. In this experiment annealed and cold-worked specimens of AISI 1018 STEEL are used, along with a Hardness tester, a grinding and polishing process, and a micrograph

    Introduction Metallurgy is the field of materials science and material engineering that studies the physical and chemical behaviour of metallic elements, their microstructure compounds and their mixtures, which are mostly known as alloy. Metallurgy can be refers as the technology of metals where science is applied to the production of metals, and the engineering of metal components for the uses of products for consumers and manufacturers. Metals are widely use in industrial, economic growth and

    the soft segment length and concentration. Polyurethane elastomers are high quality engineering materials combining high elasticity with high hardness and low wear. It is very important to mention and understand, during working with polyurethanes that we dealing with two types of materials : plastics and elastomers , which have the identical manufacturing process. Elastomers are defined as materials that possessed high, reversible deformations. Crosslinking of elastomers obtain these reversibility

    in the emission of greenhouse gas. For reducing the weight, higher strength to weight ratio steels would be required. Not only is a high strength, but the steel also requires to be adequately formable and greater energy absorption capacity. Good formability is essential for designing vehicle components with complex shapes. Dual phase (DP) steels are quite promising material for these purposes. DP steels can already achieve strength in the range of 500-1200 MPa with a total elongation of 15-25 %. Dual

    tennis ball. Many of the changes in the design of the racquet have been criticised as it was seen as an unfair advantage for the player with a ‘less technologically advanced’ racquet. Often the advancements in the design and manufacture of various materials have been applied to manufacture and create better tennis racquets, and in this respect I have decided to research into ‘What technological advances have been made to create the ultimate tennis racquet?’ When Jimmy Connors in 1974 defeated Ken Rosewall
