Polymer composite pipes with glass fiber reinforcement have today a wide usage in the chemical and process industries. The basic subject of this paper is the determination and distribution of stresses and strains in longitudinal and circumferentional directions of glass-polyester pipes under tension test. Also, the tension strengths in both directions are determined out. Tension test was performed on an electro-mechanical test machine on flat samples and rings obtained by cutting of pipes produced by the method 'Filament winding' with glass fibers reinforcement ?55?. Also, the micromechanical analysis on fracture surfaces was done by SEM, which provided the knowledge about models and mechanisms of fracture on applyed loading.

Pressurized composite pipes made of concentric fiber reinforced polymer layers have found much interest among researchers. These composite pipes possess mechanical and thermal properties that exceed those of their constituent materials. This development is motivated by the demand for corrosion resistant, lighter and high specific stiffness components. Natural fiber composite materials retain better flexural stiffness and are environmentally friendly. Unlike experimental testing, numerical investigations on the manufacture and performance of natural fiber reinforced pipes under internal pressure seem lacking. In this analysis, the mechanical behavior of multilayer composite pipes made of natural basalt and E-glass fibers under internal pressure were carried out numerically. The multilayered composite pipes were fabricated by employing filament winding technique with, basalt and E-glass fibers, with fiber orientation angles of ±45o, ±55o, ±65o, ±75o. The matrix epoxy resin was infused using vacuum infusion process (VIP). A longitudinal and hoop tensile test rig, designed and fabricated according to ASTM D2105 and D2299 respectively, was used to determine the hoop and longitudinal properties of the pipes. Numerical simulations were conducted to determine the stress and strain behaviors with the intention to find the effect of ply angle, basalt and glass properties and also to evaluate the performance of the new natural basalt fiber as an alternative to E-glass/Epoxy.

The design on joining of metal and ceramics in composite pipes fabricated by the SHS metallurgical process is carried on with adding (TiO2 +Al+C+Ni) subsystem in(CrO3+Al) system, and the composite pipes with three-layer structure of steel substrate, intermediate alloy and lined ceramics are fabricated with low cost and high performance. Combustion determination and mechanical test indicate that adding suitable amount of Ni powder in combustion system rather than (NiO+Al) subsystem can cause combustion behavior of a whole system and volume fraction of the carbides to be controlled easily, and is beneficial to improve joining of the intermediate alloy and steel substrate, causing compression strength and compression shear strength of the composite pipes to be increased greatly.

In this effort, the effects of abrasion on the mechanical properties of Kevlar KM2-600 and two types of S glass tows (AGY S2 and Owens Corning Shield Strand S) are studied. Data was generated from cyclic abrasion tests conducted at a tension level of 8% of failure load at10 mm/s (24 in/min) using a specially developed abrasion test machine. Fit curves for axial modulus and tenacity loss were established as a function of abrasion time/contact length for each tow type. Fiber surface damage and fiber breakage within the tows were identified as the major source of tow property degradation. Based on scanning electron microscopy measurements, glass fibers exhibited surface damage (micro-cracks and sizing/coating removal) that were more extensive in AGY S2 glass fibers. Kevlar KM2 fibers after tow abrasion tests exhibited fibrillation and peeling of broken fibrils from the fiber surface. In all three fibers, surface damage increased at longer abrasion times/friction contact length. Overall, the results indicated that the abrasion resistance is the highest for Kevlar KM2, followed by OCV Shield Strand and AGY S2 glass tows. The sizing material on OCV Shield Strand fibers contributed to the improved abrasion resistance compared to AGY S2.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate in vitro the effects of tooth whitening using gel with Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (ACP) on the bond strength of metal brackets. METHODS: Thirty-six bovine incisors were sectioned at the crown-root interface, and the crowns were then placed in PVC cylinders. The specimens were divided into 3 groups (n = 12) according to whitening treatment and type of gel used, as follows: G1 (control) = no whitening; G2 = whitening with gel not containing ACP (Whiteness Perfect - FGM), G3 = whitening with gel containing ACP (Nite White ACP - Discus Dental). Groups G2 and G3 were subjected to 14 cycles of whitening followed by an interval of 15 days before the bonding of metal brackets. Shear bond strength testing was performed on a Kratos universal test machine at a speed of 0.5 mm/min. After the mechanical test, the specimens were assessed to determine the adhesive remnant index (ARI). The results were subjected to ANOVA, Tukey's test and Kruskal-Wallis test (5%). RESULTS: Significant differences were noted between the groups. Control group (G1 = 11.10 MPa) showed a statistically higher shear bond strength than the groups that underwent whitening (G2 = 5.40 Mpa, G3 = 3.73 MPa), which did not differ from each other. There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of ARI. CONCLUSION: Tooth whitening reduces the bond strength of metal brackets, whereas the presence of ACP in the whitening gel has no bearing on the results.

The main objective of this experimental study is to investigate the effects of hydrothermal ageing on the pressure bearing capacity of the E-glass/epoxy composite pipes subjected to impact loadings. The pipes were produced by the conventional filament winding technique comprises of six antisymmetric layers with (±55°)3 winding angles. The pipes were immersed in tab water for period of 500, 1000, and 1500 hours. The specimens were impacted at three different energy levels; 5 J, 7.5 J, and 10 J using an instrumented drop weight impact testing machine (IMATEK IM10). The samples were then subjected to pressure test until distinct leakage failure is observed. The results indicates that peak force and contact time increase with increasing impact energy. The tests results show that the burst pressure decreases with increase in energy levels during impact loading. During the burst tests, several damage types named leakage and eruption were observed.
