AbstractIn the present study, A384 alloy composites filled with titanium dioxide (TiO2) were fabricated by the stir casting technique by varying the filler percentages from 0 to 8 wt.-% at an interval of 2 wt.-%, respectively. This study focused on the physical, mechanical, and fracture behavior of unfilled and particulate-filled alloy composites. Void content (%) and hardness were found to increase from 2.22% to 3.02% and from 35.5 to 62.5 Hv, respectively, with the increased filler contents (0 to 8 wt.-%) for the micro-TiO2-filled A384 metal alloy composite. However, mechanical properties such as tensile strength, tensile modulus, and flexural strength showed a decreasing trend for experimental and finite element simulated results. An X-ray diffraction technique was used to study the constituent material present in the composites. The stress intensity factors of the fabricated composites were studied both experimentally and by the finite element method technique. The highest value of stress intensity factor was observed to be 40 MPa.vm for 4 wt.-% micro-TiO2-filled alloy composite at 9-mm crack length. A three-dimensional simulation of the fabricated composite using the unit cell model was developed in ANSYS using appropriate boundary conditions for tensile and flexural strength.

This paper describes a novel method of self-sensing Ion-conductive Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) actuator. Unlike the previous self-sensing technique, the proposed principle is based on the electric charge of the IPMC itself, which is correlated with its curvature. At the normal state, IPMC is electrically charged, and the amount varies according to the status of IPMC. While it is operated as an actuator, it also gives position information in the form of the electric charge amount, which is utilized for fast and accurate position control. In order to get the bending status of the actuator, the instantaneous voltage of IPMC is measured during the open state for input signal. The uncomplicated system is constructed to verify if the developed method is effective for the selfsensing actuator and evaluated by the experimental basis. The way to actuate the IPMC with selfsensing is a supplying discrete signal as an input, and it is also evaluated experimentally. This research also represents relatively simple structure for both actuation and sensing, which is very important factor to be implemented as a controller circuit for various applications.

AbstractDuring the past few years there has been a strong interest in developing conducting polymers as an alternative to the traditional anticorrosion coatings. One of the driving forces for this research comes from the need for an environmentally friendly chromate-free anticorrosion coating for highstrength light weight aluminum alloys. The possibilities for a new scratch-tolerant paint for steel prompted the development of conductive polymer anticorrosion paints. By molecular engineering, we have synthesized a double-strand polymeric complex of polyaniline that is suitable as an anticorrosion paint on metals in low pH environments. In this article, we will discuss (1) the molecular design for solubility and adhesion, (2) the effectiveness of the electroactive coating under electrochemical impedance tests, and (3) a mechanistic study of the anticorrosion mechanism by examining the polymer/metal interfacial interactions.

The concept of a solid state energy storage cell has been proven technically feasible by numerous researchers over a period of at least 30 years. [1] Good reviews are available on the state of the art today [2]. The related concept of a solid state rechargeable cell has also been proven technically feasible [3,4]. This paper will describe advances made in primary and secondary solid state cell systems over a period of several years of development at Eveready Battery Co., Inc. Additionally, an attempted experimental verification of “Composite Electrode Theory” proposed by S. Atlung [5] is made.
