A gas reaction chamber has been designed and constructed for the JEM 7A transmission electron microscope which is based on a notably successful design by Hashimoto et. al. but which provides specimen tilting facilities of ± 15° aboutany axis in the plane of the specimen.It has been difficult to provide tilting facilities on environmental chambers for 100 kV microscopes owing to the fundamental lack of available space within the objective lens and the scope of structural investigations possible during dynamic experiments has been limited with previous specimen chambers not possessing this facility.A cross sectional diagram of the specimen chamber is shown in figure 1. The specimen is placed on a platinum ribbon which is mounted on a mica ring of the type shown in figure 2. The ribbon is heated by direct current, and a thermocouple junction spot welded to the section of the ribbon of reduced cross section enables temperature measurement at the point where localised heating occurs.

This study presents a design method for hybrid fiber-reinforced-polymer-steel-reinforced concrete beams by an optimized analysis of the cross section. First, the relationships among the energy consumption, the bearing capacity, and the reinforcement ratio are analyzed; then, the parameters of the cross section are determined. Comparisons between the available theoretical and experimental results show that the designed hybrid fiber-reinforced-polymer-steel-reinforced concrete beams with a low area ratio between the fiber-reinforced polymer and the steel reinforcement could meet the required carrying capacity and exhibited high ductility.

Fiber Attrition

During an injection molding of composite materials, fiber attrition occurs and the average fiber length is reduced. In order to control the breakage of fibers and degradation of mechanical properties during processing, Flat glass Fiber (FF), that has oval cross-section shape, has been developed to use for glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic (GFRTP). Using FF as reinforcement of GFRTP has advantages as following: (1) Fluidity of FF is better than conventional Normal glass Fiber (NF) with 'circular' cross-section; (2) Fiber breakage during the injection molding process using FF is smaller than that using NF. In this study, the mechanical properties of FF and NF were compared for reinforcement of long fiber thermoplastics pellets (LFT pellets). We have also investigated the effect of screw design on fiber damage and the mechanical properties. The mechanical properties of specimens molded by FF reinforcement LFT (FF-LFT) pellets were superior to these of NF reinforcement LFT (NF-LFT) pellets. The former could give composites with higher fluidity and longer residual fiber length. Moreover, FF was able to strengthen injection-molded samples with higher fiber content than NF. Low shear type screw was effective to prevent the fiber attrition during plasticization process, hence leads to better mechanical properties of GFRTP

This paper proposes a new filling material, fiber-reinforced ice (FRI), for tube bending. In tube bending, lead and low temperature melting alloys have conventionally been utilized as the filling medium to prevent defects and to alleviate flattening of the tube’s cross section. However, these alloys are usually harmful to the environment (e.g., Pb, Bi-Pb-Sn-In, or Pb-Cd system alloys) or are expensive (e.g., In-Sn system alloys). In this study, the author utilized ice reinforced with the fiber of wastepaper for 3-point bending of JIS G 3452 SGP 32A steel tubes. Compression tests were conducted to analyze whether these tubes have crushing strength comparable to that of conventional fillings and sufficient ductility in low-speed deformation. The filling medium with more fiber effectively yielded less flattening.

Abstract: Concrete members strengthened by fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) are increasingly becoming a popular retrofit technique in recent years due to the excellent material properties, convenient and easy construction methods, and outstanding strengthening effect. However, fundamental researches are incomplete; especially the characteristics research of square cross-section of FRP confined concrete has become a major obstacle for the development of further research and application. Therefore, the better understanding of the behavior of confined concrete becomes of paramount importance. A total of 10 concrete columns, which were reinforced with CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced polymer) and with filleted square sections, were fabricated and tested subjected to axial load to investigate the mechanical properties of FRP confined concrete. The mechanical behavior of FRP confined concrete has been further understood and some useful conclusions are obtained.
