In the present work, mechanical properties of prepreg carbon composites are studied. Five types of composite samples with different number of layers and prepreg material corresponding to material composition used for carbon rims are manufactured by compression molding. Prepared composites are tested and compared with respect to flexural strength and modulus. Furthermore, impact performance using Charpy impact test is also evaluated.

This research paper deals with an investigation of the influence of honeycomb core compression on the mechanical properties of sandwich structures. These structures consist of prepreg facing layers and two different material types of honeycomb and are produced by modified compression molding called Crush-Core technology. Produced structures are mechanically tested in three-point bending test and subjected to low-velocity impact and Charpy impact test.

AbstractIn this paper, the mechanical properties and microstructures of AISI4140 low alloy steel under different tempering conditions are investigated. The samples are quenched, tempered to a martensite structure and loaded to fracture by means of Charpy machine according to standard test. Fractography analysis showed that the morphology fracture surface was changed by increasing tempering temperature. The variation of energy of Charpy impact fracture as a function of tempering temperature exhibits minimum values at 300 °C, which suggests the occurrence of temper embrittlement.

A study was carried out to examine the influence of rewelding deposit of structural low carbon steel and also the changes which occur in heat-affected zone and subcritical zone during rewelding. Optical metallography, microhardness Vickers method and Charpy impact test were employed to analyze these differences. The results show that rewelding deposit increased the heat-affected zone and fine coarse grain heat-affected zone and also has influence on impact toughness of substrate and their microhardness. Again, it was found that rewelding increased the fine coarse grain heat-affected zone. This effect resulted in increasing impact toughness in the heat-affected zone. However, submicroscopic change in substrate ferrite showed decreasing impact toughness.

Engine mounting is one of the car component which is has optimize function to obtain thesystem in the car is extremely perfect. The engine mounting has to be have behavior ductile by strongestenough to support the car engine whether in rest and moving position. To obtain car engine mountingwhich has these function it has to be treated by treatment. The method was used by using Heat TreatmentSystem which we were Hardening and Tempering. Heat treatment of engine mounting is needed toanalyze the microstructure and mechanical properties of low carbon steel used. Tests carried out attemperatures of 800oC, 850oC, 900oC and normal conditions without heat treatment. Then continued withimpact charpy testing, vickers hardness testing, microstructure observation using microscope and SEM.The tests are carried out in accordance with ASTM E23, ASTM E92, ASTM A370 standards. The Vickerstest results provide the lowest HV value of 118.7Hv at 900oC, while the normal condition is at 137.409Hv.The charpy impact test results give the lowest value of 0.06 j / mm2 under normal conditions, while at900oC at 0.0962 j / mm2. The results with microscopy and SEM, the greater the temperature given to heattreatment, the less pearlite will be, while the amount of ferrite and austenite increases which makes theengine mounting more toughness.

Concerning with an actual situation in the exploitation of technological waste, this contribution deals with the properties analysis of moulded parts made of thermoplastics containing added regrind. The aim of the experiments was to analyze mechanical properties of plastics with various percentage of added regrind into basic material. Material PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), mineral composite with 30% glass fiber, was used for experimental testing. The plastics specimens were made by injection moulding and tested by chosen mechanical properties. The yield of tested material had tendency to decline with added amount of regrind. Addition of regrind had no impact on change of tensile strength and hardness of tested materials with regrind. The values of Charpy impact test had decreasing tendency with increasing rate of regrind. The utilization of regrind at the production of new moulded parts is important from aspect of reduction plastics waste and pollution abatement of environment.

The Ti-6Al-4V alloy were solution heat-treated at 960°C for 1 hour and then cooling by water-quenching immediately and 2 bar argon atmosphere, respectively. After being aged at 550°C for 5 hours, the tensile and Charpy impact test were performed. Based on the results, it is found that the quantity of primary α grains will increasing with decreasing the cooling rate following the solution heat treatment, and which will result in the tensile strength and toughness decreasing. Moreover, the optical and SEM micrographs indicated that the cracks propagated with traversing the prior β grains and propagating along the primary α grain boundaries in both of the tensile and impact fractured specimens. This implies that the strength of α grain boundary is less than that of α grain, which will play an important role on the mechanical properties of tensile strength and toughness.

This article deals with identifying attributes of layered steel materials (damask steel) with the help of mechanical tests. Experimentally verify basic mechanical properties of layered steel and subsequently assessed it in comparison with the values obtained for the classic steel materials. In conclusion, there are listed the possibilities of using multilayer steel materials in technical practice, depending on the economics of production.The damask steel was prepared by forge welding from a packet consisting of 17 layers (9 layers of tool steel 19 133 (ČSN) with the thickness of 6 mm and 8 layers 80NiCr11 steel in the form of saw bands with the thickness of 1.2 mm. The packet was cut into 8 parts, folded 3 times and forged together, which provided damask steel with 136 layers. The resulting steel bars were used to make semi-finished products with the approximate dimensions of the test specimens. For evaluation of mechanical properties were applied the following tests: tensile test, Charpy impact test, hardness and microhardness measurementsThe results of tests proved that the properties of damask steel are dependent not only on the direction led impact quality forge weld layers and content iof nhomogeneities in the place of discord, but also on the quenching and tempering temperature, resp. on the choice of quenching bath, which determine the final structure of steel and the resulting hardness, respectively microhardness.

Post processing of materials is necessary to suit them for the intended requirements. The properties of stainless steel of grade 316L cannot be influenced with further processing such as hot working [1]. Thus the current study aims at investigating the properties of stainless steel of grade 316L after being subjected to deep cryogenic treatment. The specimens from both cryogenically treated and untreated conditions were subjected to Tensile Test, Charpy Impact Test, Rockwell Hardness Test, Microstructure and Percentage Shear Area Analysis and the results thus obtained are discussed in this paper. The results have shown that cryogenic treatment has improved the hardness and strength.

AbstractThis paper presents the experimental results and analysis of the behaviour of steel 1.4762 at different temperatures. Tensile mechanical properties and creep behaviour were determined using uniaxial tests. Charpy impact test was used to determine impact energies at different temperatures. The mentioned mechanical properties are displayed as engineering stress–strain diagrams while material resistance to creep is presented in the form of creep curves. Based on Charpy impact energy an assessment of fracture toughness is given. Experimental results show that the values of mechanical properties are continuously decreased by increasing the temperature. After the temperature of 623 K (tensile strength: 468 MPa; yield strength: 298 MPa) the decrease of the ultimate strength and yield strength is especially emphasized and the difference between them becomes smaller. The creep resistance is considered quite small, except at low stress levels.
