Steels of the DOCOL group, characterised by high tensile strength and yield point, play an important role in the manufacturing of means of transport. However, the above-named steels are difficult to weld and joints made in them do not guarantee comparable mechanical properties. The research work discussed in the article aimed to determine process parameters suitable for the welding of a moving platform made of steel DOCOL 1200M as well as to assess the effect of welding parameters on the quality of obtained joints. The tests also involved analysing the effect of shielding gases, preheating and interpass temperature on the quality of an 8 mm thick MAG welded moving platform structure.

Friction stir welding (FSW), a new joining process is finding extensive use in the welding of aluminum alloy sheets. The metal transfer modes in the FSW cause the quality of the weld and its properties. The first mode of metal transfer is accomplished by the tool and shoulder, while the second mode occurs around the pin. In the present study, two different welding conditions, which were friction stir welding in the air (CFSW) and underwater friction stir welding (UWFSW) carried out at various welding parameters to weld the AA5052-O aluminum alloy sheets and determine the consequence of the first mode on the tensile strength of welded joints. Considerable grain refinement and enhanced mechanical properties were obtained in UWFSW joints. It Is observed that the first mode affect the tensile strength of the joint, also found that a linear correlation between the first mode and the tensile strength.

In this study, Ti6Al4V rods were butt-welded by rotary friction welding. The experimental results show that the weld quality, in terms of the tensile strength and hardness, decreases radially. Therefore, the radius of the welded parts that are viable for rotating friction welding is limited because the areas located far from the centre of the axis have poor mechanical properties. The parameter that impacts the tensile strength and microhardness the most during rotary friction welding of Ti6Al4V is the axial pressure, which includes the friction pressure and forging pressure. A high forging pressure produces fine, equiaxed, and recrystallized grain structures in the welded joint, resulting in a high tensile strength and microhardness. In addition, an increased forging pressure can be used in rotary friction welding to reduce the radial differences in the mechanical properties of the welded joints.

Fillers play important roles in enhancing mechanical properties of NR latex films. The effect of filler dispersion and amount of dispersing agent to the tensile strength and tearing energy of NR latex films were investigated in this study. The studies were carried out by (i) varying the amount of dispersing agent (Anchoid) added which is an anionic surfactant; and (ii) varying the speed of stirring during mixing of latex with compounding ingredients. It was observed that tensile strength and tearing energy were affected by both factors listed. In the case of NR latex film filled with 10 pphr of carbon black (Super Abrasion Furnace, SAF), the optimum stirring speed was 400 rpm and the optimum amount of surfactant was in the range of 5 to 10 % by weight. High tensile strength ranging from 29 - 31 MPa and high tearing energies ranging from 90.6 - 111.0 kJ/m2were achieved from optimization of these two factors; rendering their importance.

An experimental study was performed on a low-density plasma discharge using two different configurations of the plasma cell cathode, namely, the one mesh system electrodes (OMSE) and the one mesh and three system electrodes (OMTSE), to determine the electrical characteristics of the plasma such as current–voltage characteristics, breakdown voltage (VB), Paschen curves, current density (J), cathode fall thickness (dc), and electron density of the treated sample. The influence of the electrical characteristics of the plasma fluid in the cathode fall region for different cathode configuration cells (OMSE and OMTSE) on the performance quality of a surgical gown was studied to determine surface modification, treatment efficiency, exposure time, wettability property, and mechanical properties. Over a very short exposure time, the treatment efficiency for the surgical gown surface of plasma over the mesh cathode at a distance equivalent to the cathode fall distance dc values of the OMTSE and for OMSE reached a maximum. The wettability property decreased from 90 to 40% for OMTSE over a 180 s exposure time and decreased from 90 to 10% for OMSE over a 160 s exposure time. The mechanisms of each stage of surgical gown treatment by plasma are described. In this study, the mechanical properties of the untreated and treated surgical gown samples such as the tensile strength and elongation percentage, ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, strain hardening, resilience, toughness, and fracture (breaking) point were studied. Plasma had a more positive effect on the mechanical properties of the OMSE reactor than those of the OMTSE reactor.

The topic of this research work was to demonstrate the feasibility of a 3D-MID concept using injection molding technique and investigate the effects of two weld line types on the structure and mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural strength and morphology. In order to obtain more understanding of the bonds between polymer and metals, two different polymer bases of polyphthalamide (PPA) with the same type and amount of filler content were produced by injection molding at the different processing conditions. A mold was designed in such a way that weld and meld line can be produced with different angles by changing as insert inside of the mold. The mechanical properties such as stiffness, tensile strength and flexural strength were determined in tensile and flexural tests, respectively. The results showed in line with the expectation of high reduction on mechanical properties in area where weld/meld lines occurred. The result of tensile test was clearly seen that weld and meld line showed a considerable influence on mechanical properties. The reduction in tensile strength was approximately 58% according to weld line types, whereas in flexural strength was approximately 62%. On the other hand, the effect of the injection times and mold temperatures on the tensile strength were marginal.

The use of borax solution as a preservative in wood and bamboo materials is well known in the community. A borax solution is an environmentally friendly liquid that can dissolve in water, so it is suitable to be used as a preservative within cold or hot soaking techniques. The ability of borax to resist insects and fungus attacks on bamboo has been proven, but the effect of the solution on the strength of bamboo must also be investigated. This study conducts to investigate the effects of borax and its additives as preservative solutions to the mechanical properties of bamboos. The bamboos preservations were conducted by cold conditions of immersion, while the mechanical properties were performed to understand the effects of preservatives. The result of this study indicated that 30% to 50% borax in the preservative solution is sufficient to provide significant increase in strength for compressive strength, tensile strength, and bending strength of bamboo specimen. From this study, the use of borax solution in preserving the bamboos materials improved the quality of bamboos based on its mechanical properties.
