The analysis of literature sources on this topic is carried out. It was found that the influence of age on the main strength and deformation parameters has not been studied. The method of experimental researches of coniferous and deciduous species of solid wood of different age at one-time short-term loading along fibers is resulted. To solve the problems, a series of samples of 1 sort of solid wood in the form of prisms with a cross section of 30x30x120 mm were made. The following species of wood were tested: coniferous species - larch, pine, spruce; deciduous - birch, alder, ash. The age of wood was 20, 40, 60 years. At the time of testing, the moisture was 12%. The humidity of the wood was controlled using a moisture meter MD-814. Experimental studies were performed on a servo-hydraulic test machine STM-100 under a rigid load regime (by increasing the displacements of the press plate of the test machine). Based on the obtained results, complete diagrams of deformation of deciduous (birch, alder, ash) and coniferous (larch, pine, spruce) species of solid wood at different ages (60, 40, 20 years) were constructed. The number of twin samples that were tested was 126 pieces. The main strength and deformation parameters were determined experimentally, in particular the average critical deformations of all studied wood species and the corresponding average maximum stresses. It is established that in the case of a rigid test regime, the deformation diagram of solid wood necessarily has two branches - ascending and descending. That is, the samples work in the so-called supercritical stage of work. It was found that the age of wood directly affects the strength and deformability of solid wood. In particular, with increasing age from 20 to 60 years, the strength and deformability of deciduous and coniferous species of solid wood increases significantly. Based on the test results, conclusions were drawn. Further research on this topic is highlighted.

During the design of operations of centerless intermittent grinding of surfaces there is a need to identify the natural frequencies of oscillations of the elements of the technological system of grinding. The method of calculation of rigidity, vibration resistance and forced oscillations of the elements of the circular grinding machine is offered in the article. Carrying out of experimental researches of rigidity of elastic system of the SASL 5AD grinding machine. We conducted preliminary experimental studies to measure the oscillations of various elements of the elastic system of the SASL 5AD grinding machine in the horizontal plane by piezoelectric sensors during grinding with continuous and discontinuous circles with different geometric parameters.

Development of environmental friendly hydraulic fluid has a major influence in ecologically benign environment. The use of plant oil as hydraulic fluid would help to minimize hazardous pollution caused by accidental spillage, lower disposal costs of the used fluid and meet the environmental regulations. Hydraulic test rig was built to conduct endurance test where it can be operated continuously with several safety features. This research was conducted to evaluate the rheology elements and hydraulic performance of palm based hydraulic fluid. The palm oil shows decreasing trend in volumetric efficiency as the pressure increase while the mechanical efficiency increases as the pressure increase. Properties and characteristics of palm based hydraulic fluid were evaluated via rheology study. The effect of viscosity with temperature and shear rate was studied. The influence of shear rate and temperature on the variation of viscosity was clearly observed but temperature has more significant influence. Interpretations of rheological models indicate that this palm based hydraulic fluid belongs to pseudo-plastic category. Further analysis was done to fit the experimental data with two models and the findings show that Cross rheological model fits well with the experiment data. The plant oil was used in 1000 hours operation in a hydraulic system built in Universiti Malaysia Terengganu. The overall results suggest the potential substitution of palm oil as hydraulic fluid in marine applications.

Pin joints are used in many items of industrial machinery where two structural members are required to articulate. A pin is assembled between typically four bushes. As the members articulate the pin rotates relatively slowly inside the bushes. A hydraulic test machine has been developed to load and articulate a 56 mm diameter pin held in four bushes, typical of that found in earth moving machinery and aircraft landing gear. The rig is capable of applying realistic loads and speeds of articulation, whilst measuring torque and angular displacement. The test machine design and operation is described. The pin joint is lubricated with mineral oil based grease. Joint rotation is relatively slow and hydrodynamic calculations predict that the joint operates in the boundary regime. During a single cycle the torque remains largely constant, with a static friction peak at the beginning and end of the cycle. Measurements of the torque during articulation demonstrate friction coefficients varying from 0.02 to 0.12 depending on the rotational speed. The contact stress distribution between the pin and bushes was estimated by an ultrasonic method. An ultrasonic pulse was sent through the hollow pin and reflected back from the pin-bush interface. High contact pressures causes conformity between the pin and bush and so the wave passes through. The proportion of the sound wave reflected was used to estimate the contact stress distribution. The results showed how the stress is maximum in the outer bushes and over a 60° arc of the pin. The results of the study can be used to understand how pin joints function and how they may be optimised.

Sixty-four fractured commercially pure titanium (cp-Ti) narrow dental implants (NDIs) with similar macrogeometry and connection designs were studied after different implantation times in humans in order to determine their reliability and to evaluate the causes of the fracture. These NDIs were compared with other similar implants, made with alloyed titanium with 15% Zr and with 12% strained titanium. Original implants were tested under static and fatigue conditions, simulating the tri-axial loads in the mouth by means of a Bionix hydraulic test machine. Fractography was studied using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FSEM). The results showed that cp-Ti NDI exhibits low strength for mechanical cycling, and the alloyed Ti and strained titanium increase the mechanical strength, guaranteeing long term mechanical behavior. NDIs fractured due to fatigue, and, in some cases, the presence of cracks in the original NDIs quickly led to fracture. These cracks were attributed to plastic deformation during machining were found to be exacerbated due to acid etching in the passivation process. All cases of fracture were cp-Ti dental implants due to the low fatigue limit. The results show that, when titanium is alloyed or cold-worked, the fatigue limit is higher than cp-Ti. This in vitro research will help clinicians to select a better NDI system for safer treatment.
