In most cases, the fire model parameters (fire load, fire compartment geometry, material properties of enclosure surfaces, ventilation condi­ tions, etc.) are assumed to be deterministic, i.e. constant, without any variability.
For the thermal absorptivity of the total enclosure, we consider high quality of modern building materials with small deviations in the thermal properties.
Mechanical Analysis For the mechanical analysis of the slab panel, an iterative procedure based on the moment­curvature approach was used.
Hence, for the subsequent thermal and mechanical analysis of the slab panel, only the fire curves obtained using the Latin Hypercubes method were utilized.
It was shown that the variability of the fire model parameters strongly affects the predicted fire resistance of the analysed slab panel.

The conductivity of the PEMFC membrane is one of the most critical factors in PEM fuel cell designs.
The mechanical and thermal properties were also improved as compared to unmodified Nafion® membranes.
The SPAEK had better mechanical properties than Nafion ® as shown in Fig. 4.
The mechanical properties increased with increasing SPAEK content.
This membrane had better mechanical properties and good water uptake than commercial Nafion® .

In the above studies, the physical properties of the fluids were assumed to be free from temperature and depth.
However, in actual practice, these properties are significantly affected by the changes in temperature and depth taken independently or collectively.

Introduction Ultrasonic motors (USM) principles of operations are based on the concept of driving the rotor by a mechanical vibration force generated on the stator (PZT Transducer) via piezoelectric effect.
Mishandling of material deformation can produce a jerking effect, which can affect degree of accuracy of the USM.
Using these relations the torque factor of the motor and the diameter of the rotor including driving wheel and the shaft can be determined.
The transferred force to the shaft can be determined using the following torque factor relationship: (3) This relation shows that the torque factor has to be carefully selected during the design process of the motor.
This considered the properties of the material used to manufacture the shaft and the moment of inertia of the rotor.

The advantage of the system lies in the inexpensive raw materials, but they are also responsible for the relatively weak part properties.
The scaling factor is provided by the machine manufacturer to take shrinkage of a material and the machine specific process conditions into account.
Geometry is an important factor, since wall-thicknesses affecting shrinkage rates.
Technologies, which rely on support structures, are introducing an additional geometric element and constraint, which in turn affects accuracy.

In many applications the fatigue behavior is one of the most important factors which should be considered because the most parts of machines are susceptible to fatigue fractures.
Variations of these factors affect the KIC which expresses the fatigue behavior of ADI.

The Waste Polymer and Oyster Shell All plastics can be recycled, however the extent to which they are recycled depends upon both economic and logistic factors.
Various physical, mechanical and chemical properties of shells, such as cockle or blood clam, oyster, periwinkle shells, mussels, scallops, crepidula shells, and conk shells as a sand replacement, a partial and total course aggregate replacement, filler, and cement replacement, in form of complete, crushed, ground or powder had been studied [14].
Besides that, these residues have properties that allow their reuse.
However, the companies can also benefit indirectly by being involved in reverse logistics even there is no clear or immediate expected profit because of marketing, competition and strategic factors [23].
The calcium carbonate as OSW padding can reduce the cost of raw material, reduce production energy consumption, and improve preparation and mechanical properties effectively [27].

Acrylates, moreover, can be tailored to attain suitable rheological and mechanical behavior of concrete by modifying the PEO chain.
Materials and methods Concretes with w/c equal to 0.53, consistency class F5 (flow table higher than 580 mm - EN 12350-5) and with a cement factor of 325 kg/m3 were manufactured.
The rheological and mechanical behavior of concrete mixtures was studied at a room temperature of 20°C and at the temperature of 30°C in order to simulate hot climate condition for concrete placing.
