Hypo/hyper-eutectic Al-Si bi-metal composite parts were prepared by the strain-induced melt activated (SIMA) thixo-forging. The interfaces of the bi-metal composites were observed using OM, and SEM. The tensile strength and hardness of the matrix alloys and the bonding strength at the interface were assessed by tensile test and micro-indent test. Results show that the eutectic structure joined together on the interface under the pressure. However, there are some defects such as holes and impurities were found near the interface. The tensile test samples were broken in Al-20 wt. % Si matrix. The bonding strengths at the interfaces were higher than 80 MPa. Results show that the hardness gradually increasing from 55 HV in Al-7 wt. % Si alloy to 180 HV in Al-20 wt. % Si alloy, which demonstrate the composite interface transited smoothly. The composite interface has an average hardness of 80 HV.

The Relationship

Laminated veneer lumber is taken as an object of study, and use LVL specimens of different sizes for compression test and tensile test. The goal of the experiment is to investigate the size effect on compressive strength and tensile strength as well as the influence of the secondary glued laminated face, which appears in the secondary molding processes. The results show that both compressive strength and tensile strength have the size effect apparently and the existence of the secondary glued laminated face lower the compressive strength of LVL specimens. Afterwards, the relationship between compressive strength and volume along with tensile strength and area are obtained by the test results.

The mechanical properties, among all the properties of plastic materials, are often the most important properties because virtually all service conditions and the majority of end-use applications involve some degree of mechanical loading [1]. In the present work three different commercial polyethylene materials are tensile tested at four or five different tensile rates and two or three temperatures. Tensile test results against tensile rate include stress at 0.5 % elongation, tensile strength, yield strength, modulus of elasticity, elongation at yield and % elongation are determined. It is concluded that the structure, chain lengths and branching rates of polymer matrix significantly effected tensile test curve characteristic.

Aluminium 6061 composites have been succesfully produced by stirr casting method. The process involved melting aluminium at 800°C and mixed with AlSr, TiB and Mg to produce master alloy of matrix phase, then degassing to remove all of gas entrapped in molten aluminium by argon. There are two types of particles reinforced added into aluminium to produce aluminium composite such as SiC and Al2O3. The particles reinforced addition for both SiC and Al2O3 are started from 2vf-% to 10vf-% to obtain the optimum compostion which have good mechanial propperties. The addition of 10wt-% Mg is to promote wetting between matrix and reinforced while the addition of AlSr and TiB are to improve mechanical properties by modifying the eutectic structure as well as grain refinement of the matrix phases. The two composites are compaired both mechanical properties and microstructure analysis. The mechanical properties of Al/SiC composites such as tensile strength, elongation, and hardness have a maximum value at addition of 10 Vf-% SiC with the value up to 230 MPa, 6.5%, and 62 HRB respectively. While for Al/Al2O3 composites have the highest tensile strength and elongation at 6 Vf-% Al2O3 with the value of 224 MPa and 7% respectively, but the highest hardness is obtained at addition of 10 Vf-% Al2O3 reaches to 55 HRB. The percentages of porosity were increased for both composites along with the increase of particles reinforced. The microstrutures for both composites are similar since they have the same matrix and Sr clearly changed primary Mg2Si become finer chinese scripts, while TiB as grain refiner worked efficiently for higher reinforced particles addition because the grain size reduced for both composites.

The article presents the study of alumina nanoparticles’ (nanofibers) concentration effect on the strength properties of pure nickel. The samples were obtained by spark plasma sintering of previously mechanically activated metal powders. The dependence of the grain size and the relative density of compacts on the number of nanofibers was investigated. It was found that with an increase in the concentration of nanofibers, the average size of the matrix particles decreased. The effects of the nanoparticle concentration (0.01–0.1 wt.%) on the elastic modulus and tensile strength were determined for materials at 25 °C, 400 °C, and 750 °C. It was shown that with an increase in the concentration of nanofibers, a 10–40% increase in the elastic modulus and ultimate tensile strength occurred. A comparison of the mechanical properties of nickel in a wide range of temperatures, obtained in this work with materials made by various technologies, is carried out. A description of nanofibers’ mechanisms of influence on the structure and mechanical properties of nickel is given. The possible impact of impurity phases on the properties of nickel is estimated. The tendency of changes in the mechanical properties of nickel, depending on the concentration of nanofibers, is shown.

Geotextiles are made of polymers, and their conjunction with different processes and materials can provide geotextiles with desirable characteristics and functions, such as filtration, separation, and drainage, and thereby meets the environmental requirements. Chemical resistant and mechanical strong polymers, including polyester (PET) and polypropylene (PP), are thus used to prolong the service life of the products made by such materials. This study proposes highly air permeable geotextiles that are made with different thicknesses and various needle punching speeds, and the influences of these two variables over the pore structure and mechanical properties are then examined. PET fibers, PP fibers, and recycled Kevlar fibers are blended, followed by being needle punched with differing spaces and speeds to form geotextiles with various thicknesses and porosities. The textiles are then evaluated for their mechanical strength and porosity. The test results show that a thickness of 4.5 cm and 1.5 cm demonstrate an influence on the tensile strength of the geotextiles, which is ascribed to the webs that are incompletely needle punched. However, the excessive needle punching speed corresponding to a thickness of 0.2 cm results in a decrease in tensile strength, but there is also an increase in the porosity of the geotextiles.

The paper presents the results of the experimental study of the three-layer Al-Mg-Al sheets rolling process by the ARB method. The tests carried out were limited to single-pass symmetric and asymmetric rolling processes. An Al-Mg-Al package with an initial thickness of 4 mm (1-2-1 mm) was subjected to the process of rolling with a relative reduction of 50%. To activate the shear band in the strip being deformed, an asymmetry factor of av=2 was applied. From the test results, an increase in the tensile strength of the multi-layer Al-Mg-Al sheets obtained from the asymmetric process was observed. Microhardness tests did not show any significant differences in aluminium layer between respective layers of sheets obtained from the symmetric and the asymmetric process. By contrast, for the magnesium layer, an increase in microhardness from 72 HV to 79 HV could be observed for the asymmetric rolling. The analysis of the produced Al-Mg-Al sheets shows that the good bond between individual layers and grain refinement in the magnesium layer contributed to the obtaining of higher mechanical properties in the multi-layer sheets produced in the asymmetric process compared to the sheets obtained from the symmetric process.
