    14) wt.% of kaolin powder to obtain desirable properties. The parameters such as tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation at break , yield stress, impact strength, shore D hardness and water absorption test were carried out on the prepared samples. The results showed that the addition of kaolin powder to the polymer leads to increase the tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, shore-D hardness and impact strength and it decreases the % elongation at break,. Water absorption of the composites

    compressive strength, diametral tensile strength and flexural strength levels. The results showed no statistically significant difference between the four material in terms of compressive strength(1). The main trait that is necessary for resisting intraoral forces. It was shown that Diametral tensile strength was the significantly higher for paracore than the other materials(1). The results showed a very interesting result

    different material of metal rods. During this time, we collected data regarding the stress and strain of the given materials and were able to come up with a report including statements about the significance and importance of their designated yield strength. II. Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the relation of affect that the shear force has based on the diameter of the rod. In order to find the double shear stress and since the lab procedure was based on a shear stress

    Conventionally, in aerospace, automotive and packaging industries synthetic fiber reinforced composites are widely used because of their greater strength and stiffness. But synthetic fibers are expensive and not ecofriendly. So, of late biofibers are replacing synthetic fibers which are extensively used as reinforcements in composites and these materials are gaining popularity as potential structural materials because they are abundantly available renewable, sustainable, light weight, non abrasive

    2.0 Component Analysis The worm drive gearbox is comprised of a worm screw running off the input shaft and engaging the worm wheel perpendicularly1. Bonfiglioli states in their quality standards that they are committed to supplying effective products and go on to say they will never compromise on safety, compliance or quality2. As a business, it is in their best interests to do so as cost effectively as possible; keeping both these points in mind will help to analyse the various parts of the gearbox

    of Carbon fibre. Design technicians and engineers love to use carbon fibre in manufacturing as it has many desirable properties. First of all is its strength. Carbon fibre is five times stronger than steel and is twice as stiff [2]. The strands of carbon are lined up parallel to each other when producing a sheet. For maximum results in strength, the fibres must be parallel with the forces that will act upon that element, this is to make sure it can withstand the forces going through the object

    mat reinforced Polyester Composite has been developed to find out an alternative structural material. The physical and mechanical characteristics that are Tensile strength, Flexural strength, Water absorption, Hardness etc. illustrate the competency of the developed composite. It is found that Water Absorbency, Tensile strength, Flexural strength, hardness & stiffness increase with increasing of Metal Mat layer in the composite which is estimated maximum for the three Metal Mat layered composite and

    thin strands that have a diameter smaller than that of a human hair though it is credited to having the five times the tensile strength of steel and two times its stiffness although it the carbon compound has only two-thirds the weight of steel. In modern times, carbon fibre is commercially synthesised in industries as it has a wide variety of applications in tasks requiring strength while at the same time minimising weight such as in aeroplane body panels. Fibre glass, on the other hand, is made up

    Concrete is a significant structural material used all around the world. Moreover, the complexity of structures and their magnitude have continued to increase, and this has resulted in a greater importance of their strength and distortion characteristics in more serious consequences of their behaviour. Engineers have been working on the development of innovative types of concrete. One of the most promising products is fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC). Fibers in concrete provide better-quality mechanical

    Steel is classified as stainless steel if it contains at least 10.5% chromium. Once this chromium requirement is met, the stainless steel is put into different categories to identify the type much easier. The type of stainless steel I will focus on is 304 stainless steel. This means that it is in the chromium-nickel alloy classification. 304 stainless steel used to be called 18/8 steel because it was made with 18% chromium and 8% nickel. Polyethylene is made from naphtha, or petroleum. Naphtha
