Sinceasphalt concrete undergo different failure problems at different temperature and moisture conditions and for years many scientists and researchers used different kinds of materials and variety of methods for improving the properties of asphalt concrete made with either basalt or limestone.So it became necessary to provide the best possible way to get rid of these failure problems.In this study diluted zycotherm nanomaterial at three different percentages by weight of aggregate used with two aggregate types, basalt and limestone, and asphalt concrete made with the marinated aggregate and later the properties of asphalt concrete were investigated after the marination.Indirect tensile strength test and retained stability test results were used to evaluate the marinating effect.As a result zycotherm dilution by weight of aggregate has changed the properties of asphalt mixture and improved to a great extent. From the results it can be concluded that rutting and fatigue problems decreased with a great range.

In this paper, a new Indirect tensile tester (IDT) which can be cooperated with Industrial Computered Tomography (IDT) is developed. The new tester uses a set of sliders to transfer the vertical stress to hoop stress which applied to a hollow cylindrical sample. The micro-crack will be appeared and propagated in the weakest direction of hollow cylindrical sample with the increase of vertical stress and tensile strength can calculated with the maximum vertical stress. Due to the existence of central slider, the stress state of hollow cylindrical sample will be kept even after unloading and the mixture sample would not have recovery when it is moved for scanning with ICT. The test results show that the combination of the developed ICT with IDT will help obtain more useful information on understanding the nature of asphalt concrete with different tensile damage stages.

Bamboo has high tensile strength, so it can be an alternative to substitute wood or steel. Bamboo is a material that comes from nature, so it is vulnerable to degraded by weather changes and infected by termites and fungi. The effort to overcome this problem is by preserving before using it. This study aims to determine the tensile strength test results of bamboo after preserving and then compare with the tensile strength test results of bamboo without preserving. The research method was carried out by preserving bamboo by soaking the test sample in a container filled with water for a duration of time; 1 x 24 hours; 3 x 24 hours and 14 x 24 hours. The water used in freshwater with a salinity of 0 0/00 measured using a salinometer. The results showed that the tensile strength of bamboo increased compared without preserved with a percentage of 12.50%; 23.12% and 10.59% for the duration of time respectively 1x24 hours; 3x24 hours and 14x24 hours. Optimal tensile strength is obtained at a time duration of 3 x 24 hours and decreases at a longer time duration of 14x24 hours.

INTRODUCTION: The degradation of elastic ligatures in the oral environment results in the need of periodic replacement to maintain the optimal force during the orthodontic treatment. The purpose of this study was to perform a clinical prospective randomized study of the degradation of orthodontic elastomeric ligatures in the oral environment by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and tensile strength test. METHOD: Two hundred elastic ligatures were randomly selected and placed around the brackets of 5 volunteers and removed in groups of 10, at different times (1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks). The control group was performed by another fifty ligatures which were not submitted to the oral degradation. The analyses were done by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and strength mechanical test. RESULTS: The tensile strength test results showed reduction in the ultimate strength values after four weeks ageing in the oral environment and no statistical difference in the yield strength values (p < 0.05). The orthodontic elastomeric ligatures surface was significantly degraded in the oral cavity after four weeks. The elastomeric degradation began in the first week when the increase in the roughness could be detected just in some areas. Afterwards, the surface became gradually rougher and, after 4 weeks, it was totally rough with some crack areas. CONCLUSIONS: The elastic ligatures aged in the oral environment showed higher superficial degradation and lower loss of mechanical properties after the maximum experimental period.

<p>Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah membandingkan sampel <em>Thin Surfacing </em>yang dibuat di laboratorium dengan sampel hasil <em>coring</em> dari lapangan menggunakan pengujian <em>Marshall, Indirect Tensile Strength test, </em>dan seberapa besar pengaruh jumlah pemadatan terhadap <em>skid resistance</em>.</p> <p>Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah eksperimental yang dilaksanakan di Laboratorium Jalan Raya Universitas Sebelas Maret Surakarta dan di desa Madegondo, kecamatan Grogol, kabupaten Sukoharjo. Untuk sampel hasil <em>coring</em>, diambil dari jalan yang di buat buat di desa Madegondo dengan dimensi 3m x 1m dan setiap 1 meter dilakukan variasi pemadatan. Adapun variasi pemadatan yang dilakukan yaitu 10 gilasan, 15 gilasan, dan 20 gilasan. Sebelum dilakukan proses <em>coring</em> dilakukan pengujian <em>skid resistance </em>dengan alat <em>rolling straightedge. </em>Setelah itu dilakukan, maka dilakukan <em>coring</em> pada setiap variasi pemadatan guna mengambil sampel untuk pengujian <em>Marshall </em>dan <em>Indirect Tensile Strength.</em></p> <p>Hasil analisis benda uji menunjukkan bahwa besar nilai stabilitas, <em>flow </em>dan nilai ITS<em> </em>sampel hasil <em>coring</em> jauh dari sampel yang dibuat di laboratorium meskipun telah dilakukan beberapa variasi pemadatan. Sedangkan besarnya nilai <em>skid resistance </em>dari beberapa variasi gilasan sebanyak 10 lintasan, 15 lintasan dan 20 lintasan berturut-turut menurun. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa semakin kecil nilai koefisien PrI semakin baik tingkat kerataan aspal. Sebaliknya, semakin besar nilai koefisien PrI mengindikasikan tekstur permukaan jalan yang kasar dan meningkatkan kekesatan permukaan jalan.</p>

China's existing polymer-modified cement based compounds for waterproofing material standards are used for the tensile strength test and elongation at break test as the test method to evaluate the performance of the product extension. The elongation only reflects the extension ability of product, but cannot indicate the crack bridging ability of the product. In engineering applications, there is a requirement for higher bridging cracks ability of the products. In this paper, 9 samples of polymer-modified cement based compounds for waterproofing material were tested. Crack bridging ability was tested under the standards and methods in DIN EN 14891:2013-07. Tensile strength and elongation at break were tested according to the standards and methods in GB23445:2009. The crack bridging ability test results are between 0 to 2.08mm, in which 5 of them meet the requirements of greater than 0.75mm according to DIN EN14891:2013-07.The tensile strength test results are between 1.13MPa to 3.19MPa, the elongation at break test results are between 4% to 350%.The results show that higher tensile strength and higher elongation at break will have good ability of crack bridging. Samples with better crack bridging ability are close to type III product according to GB23445-2009 which requires tensile strength ≥ 1.8MPa and elongation at break ≥ 30%. Crack bridging ability directly reflects the product’s ability of crack bridging, and is more in line with the actual requirements in engineering applications. It is recommended that the crack bridging ability test method should be adopted in the formulation of China polymer-modified cement compounds for waterproofing material standards.

A plug-in oil hose joint is used as the research object in this study. Aimed at the problem of pipeline breakage due to insufficient strength of the joint during the process of oil transportation on the sea, a three-dimensional geometric model of the joint is constructed according to the structural characteristics of the plug-in joint. The mechanical properties of the plug-in hose joint were studied by numerical simulations and field experiments. The strength of the joint was optimized by applying materials with different properties and adjusting the circular angle of the joint. The tensile strength test results of the plug-in oil hose joint are consistent with the theoretical analysis, which shows that the method proposed in this paper can effectively improve the tensile strength of the oil hose joint. It is of great significance to expand the scope of the plug-in connector and ensure the safe and stable use of the hose system.
