Introduction The particle-reinforced aluminum matrix composites have an excellent physical mechanical properties but it was also a typical difficult to cut material.
Because electroplated diamond wheel had the properties of easy production and low cost, it could substantially reduce manufacturing cost of processing particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites.
It was affected by multiple factors.
Generally, factors which made surface temperature higher could increase tension stress of the processed surface; however factors which enhanced plastic deformation of the surface could increase compressive stress of the surface.
Tangential force and normal force were relatively lower and not obviously affected by grinding parameters.

The deterioration of flexible bound bituminous road layers in the form of creep deformation (rutting) or fatigue cracking is caused by a number of contributing factors.
The properties of the bitumen used are shown in Table 1.

Modal properties and quantities derived from these properties, such as mode shape curvature and dynamic flexibility matrix indices, have been the primary features used to identify damage in bridge structures.
The response of MFC transducers to flexural (A0) mode of Lamb waves is decomposed into the longitudinal and transverse sensitivity factors which extract the incoming wave directions [8,9].
Properties of the Lamb waves generated are: Frequency, f = 20kHz: Wavelength, λ= 28.44mm:Group velocity, Cg = 1125.7m/sec Phase Velocity, Cp = 568.8m/sec: Wave number, k = 251 The plate with MFC patches has been modeled as a composite shell sections with three layers, one MFC layer, second aluminum plate layer and third a dummy layer with a highly reduced stiffness.
Because the stiffness and the density are highly reduced, it will not affect the final results of the analysis.
The sensitivity factors for MFC transducers, S1 and S2 calculated using Eq.1 and Eq.2, S1=Sθ=00=2t(d31E1+d32ν12E2)sin(kl2)lk1-ν12ν21e33σ-(d312E1+2d31d32ν12E2+d322E2)] (1) S2=Sθ=900=2t(d32E2+d31ν12E2)sin(kb2)bk1-ν12ν21e33σ-(d312E1+2d31d32ν12E2+d322E2)] (2) S1 = -1.22499×105 S2 = -7.45189×105 Then the transverse sensitivity factor calculated from Eq.3, KT=S2S1=l(d32E2+d31ν12E2)sin(kb2)b(d31E1+d32ν12E2)sin(kl2) (3) KT = 0. 609141 The element size considered should be less the λ/20 as per reference [11, 12].

Theoretical Background The “in service” engineering material performances at “complex structural components level” can be substantially different from the “material level” ones found by characterization campaigns on strength and stiffness properties.
Moreover, the fracture propagation can be affected by the speed of loading or by the temperature.
The Aluminium properties are recalled in Table I.

Influence of Environment on Creep Properties of MC2 Single Crystal Superalloy at 1150°C Sébastien Dryepondt1 , Eric Andrieu 1 , Daniel Monceau 1 , Fabrice Crabos2 and Cyril Vernault2 1 CIRIMAT UMR 5085, ENSIACET-INPT, 31077 Toulouse Cedex 4, France 2 TURBOMECA 64511 Bordes, France Keywords: single crystal superalloy, creep test, controlled atmosphere, high temperature oxidation.
Many factors can damage these parts.
They were surface polished with SiC paper and diamond paste down to 3 µm to remove affected zone by rectification.
Another way to explain the deterioration of the mechanical properties by oxidation is the injection of point defects.
Conclusion The tests performed under controlled atmosphere have shown the drastic oxidation effect on creep properties of MC2 at 1150°C.

Reinforcement in construction involves the strategic integration of specific materials with desired mechanical properties into other materials that may lack these attributes.
This translates to a notable improvement in mechanical properties when specific lengths and quantities of wheat straw fibers are judiciously integrated into the concrete mix.
Environmental factors such as freeze-thaw cycles, moisture infiltration, and temperature fluctuations further exacerbate distresses by undermining the pavement's structural integrity [17].
WSFRC overlays are meticulously engineered to maintain a slender profile without compromising load-bearing capacity, thanks to the material's impressive resistance to environmental factors and abrasion [22].

By establishing the connection between stress and its increment, the mechanical properties of wheel under different conditions is described.
As a result, the effective cutting depth is stan in coarse grinding area of the wheel, which is not affected by the radial cutting depth ap, it only varies with the feed rate per revolution and angular in the coarse grinding area.
Supposing an infinitesimal element in wheel matrix, analyzing its stress and displacement could describe the mechanics properties of wheel matrix.
(4) The 42CrMo alloy steel and aluminium alloy are selected as wheel matrix, and the mechanics properties of the two materials are shown in Table 1.

Therefore, the water permeability of the cementitious material is very crucial to its durability[1].Permeability is the basic properties of porous material.
There are many influence factors affect the permeability of cement-based composites, the most important parameter that affects permeability properties is its pore structure[2].
Pore structure is a very important microstructural characteristic in a porous solid because it influences the physical and mechanical properties, and controls the durability of the material.
Using fractal theory to analyses and appraises the characteristic, composition, structure, describe the fine structure on the micro-scale and the dynamic mechanical behavior is very effective.

This thesis provides an evaluation of quality loss and flexural strength and compression strength reduction of Elastocoast® PUR-stone samples after 300 times freeze-thaw cycling, addressing the main influential factors on the frost resistance durability of Elastocoast® PUR-stone under the freeze-thaw cycling conditions, which shall provide a referential basis for the application of the material in northern regions[2] -[5].
The weighed samples are then placed on mechanical testing machine for compression strength tests after bending.
Fig. 1 Variation curve of flexural strength of sample after 300 times freezing-thawing cycling It can be seen from Fig.1 that with the increase in the number of freezing and thawing, PUR-stone strength properties are decreased, wherein the flexural strength is prominently lowered with increase of freeze-thaw cycling frequency, the decrease trend of test samples after 150 times freeze-thaw cycling is more prominent, the final strength loss peak value can reach 61%, obviously, the damage of freeze-thaw cycling on the flexural strength is very obvious.
(4) Elastocoast® PUR-stone is a kind of perfect protective material which has good mechanical properties to resistant freeze-thaw damage .

Importantly, all construction operations and other activities that are likely to affect the physical-mechanical properties of soils and the stability of the soil-structure system should be properly taken into account.
Among other numerical methods for solving problems is the finite element method (FEM) that has a number of advantages, such as: · A quite large number of factors that are likely to affect the stability of soil-structure systems can be taken into account; · Soil-structure interaction can be evaluated individually at different stages of construction and operation of the structure; · emergency situations can be simulated; · Different models of materials behavior can be used for soils and building structures [5].
The model implies elastic behavior; material properties are as follows: specific weight γ = 0 g/cm3, modulus of elasticity E = 1000 kN/m2, and Poisson's ratio ν = 0.25.
