This work presents the effect of various wear environments like 20% soil & 80% sand and 40% soil & 60% sand on as received and carburized mild steel sample at different load like 75N, 200N & 375N and at different tempering temperature like 200oC, 250oC & 300oC. The mild steel sample was carburized at 950oC. The heat treatment after carburization has been acknowledge that at some instant it impr...

during the past two decades the use of lignocellouse fibers in reinforcing composites has attracted much research activities. in the present work, date palm fiber was used for production of composites compatible withliving environment. the fibers were pre-treated chemically to remove impurities. in order to verify and compare the effectiveness of the pretreatment methods, lignin, ash, moisture ...

in this paper, dissimilar resistance spot welding of aisi 1075 eutectoid steel to aisi 201 stainless steel is investigated experimentally. for this purpose, the experiments are designed using response surface methodology and based on four-factor, five-level central composite design. the effects of process parameters such as welding current, welding time, cooling time and electrode force are inv...

objectives: this study aimed to compare the durability of four adhesive systems by assessing their microtensile bond strength (mtbs) and microleakage during six months of water storage. materials and methods: a total of 128 human third molars were used. the adhesives tested were scotch bond multipurpose (sbmp), single bond (sb), clearfil-se bond (cseb), and all-bond se (abse). after sample prep...

Abstract: The Quasi-static mechanical properties of hybrid fiber (steel fiber and Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber) reinforced cementitious composites (HFRCC(SP)) were investigated by compressive and tensile experiments. The compressive strength, peak strain, elastic modulus and tensile strength are studied as compared with that of engineered cementitious composite (ECC). Study results indicate th...

A new failure criterion was presented to predict the ultimate strength of shale under the triaxial and polyaxial state of stress. A database containing 93 datasets was obtained from the results of the uniaxial, triaxial, polyaxial compressive tests, an indirect tensile test was collected from reliable references, and this test was carried out on the shale samples taken from the southwestern oil...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tensile strength of surgical synthetic absorbable sutures over a period of 14 days under simulated oral conditions. METHODS Three suture materials (polyglycolic acid [PGA], polyglactin [PG] 910, and poly (glycolide-co-є-caprolactone) [PGC]) were used in 4-0 and 5-0 gauges. 210 suture samples (35 of each material and gauge) were used. All o...
