INTRODUCTION
Structural reliability of composite materials can be strongly affected by the fracture toughness of
interface between two constituents.
The failure of interface is inherently a mixed mode problem, particularly when crack is constrained to grow along the interface because of the mismatch of material properties across the interface.
Material properties used in analysis are listed in Table 1.
Material properties Material Youngs Modulus E(GPa) Poissons ratio � Epoxy 1.97 0.33 Glass 68.95 0.20 Dundurs Parameter : � = -0.9402772 � = -0.2349565 Bimaterial constant : �= 0.07621267 +u 10 10 a ,µ2 2� 150 NC O D �µ ,1 1 r � X2 o G LASS U nit (m m ) EPO XY o+v 1X Fig.1.
Once the complex stress intensity factors were found, Eq.3 and Eq.4 were used to determine mixed mode interfacial fracture parameters, such as mode mix, �, critical energy release rate, CG , during crack initiation.

Besides, we remind that the final quenching of the sword affects the phase distribution, in
terms of martensite and bainite concentration, along the blade cross section.
Results The complementary results obtained from the INES and ENGIN-X measurements allow us to give a clear picture of many factors concerning the samples.
The typical corrosion products, and the apparent anomalies in what would be expected from the ideal Fe-C phase spatial distribution, give information on the conservation status in terms of environmental factors and polishing.
As regards the stress and strain data, the following properties have been analyzed: a) the strain level for axial, transversal and normal directions, using the lattice parameter value measured in the tang as a reference; b) the full width at half maximum of the 211 Bragg peak for axial, transversal and normal directions; c) the ratio between the Lorentzian and Gaussian components of the 211 peak.
A full map of all these properties has been compiled for both the blades.

Because special landform, geological conditions in Loess donga, the route strike the ditch most;because subgrade occupies long and narrow channel of natural form, which makes the subgrade often not only drain difficultly, but also is affected by mountain extraneous water on both sides .
Therefore, subgrade underground drainage design is mainly underground trench flow calculation, and filter layer material and design affect seepage flow calculations, thus affecting the reliability of flow calculation.
The number of filter layer is mainly decided by two factors: the first is the size of lower drainage layer, the second is each layer thickness.
General provisions, artificially construction Tmin≥20cm, mechanical construction Tmin≥3m.
According to the type of filter layer, protected soil property and seepage damage form, corresponding design method is selected. (3)to design the first filter layer.

Introduction
The control of the morphology and size of Si phase in Al-Si casting alloy has become the most
important factor for deciding the characteristics of the alloy.
In this research, an electromagnetic vibration was applied to a solidifying Al-Si-Mg alloy and then the morphology and size of eutectic Si phase were observed and mechanical properties were measured.
A tensile test was carried out to evaluate the mechanical properties of the specimen at room temperature by using the specimen of ASTM E8M standard size.
As the results of tensile test in Fig. 4, the UTS and elongation was enhanced to around 47% from 126.5MPa to 186.9MPa and to 8.5 times from 1% to 8.5%, respectively, as increasing the frequency. 7.743 6.385 2.949 1.763 0.973 0.853 0.837 7.743 5.712 2.469 0.985 0.894 0.822 0.798 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 As-cast 60 200 300 500 700 1000 Frequency(Hz) Diameter( � �� � ) 4.2E5A/ � 1.05E6A/ � Fig. 3 Mean size of the eutectic Si phase with a different frequency and current density 126.51 134.89 136.92 171.85 173.08 180.93 186.93 1.00 2.00 2.56 4.81 5.50 8.05 8.50 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 Ascast 60 200 300 500 700 1000 Frequency(Hz) UTS(MPa) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Elongation(%) UTS Elongation Fig. 4 Variation of the mechanical properties as a function of the frequency It has been well known that the transformation of unmodified flake to modified fibrous structure arises from a very different type

The SG grinding wheel is found to possess particularly good grinding
properties and is more suitable for grinding titanium alloy when compared with conventional
abrasive tools.
Introduction Titanium alloys have been widely used in aeronautics and astronautics industry owing to their unique combinations of properties such as favorable mechanical strength, excellent heat-resistant and erosive-resistant, better low-temperature flexibility and especially high specific strength.
Unfortunately, the unique physical and chemical properties that make these alloys suitable for aeroengine blades also contribute to the difficulty with which they are cut or ground.
The measurement of grinding force components is highly essential to analyze more effectively the grindability factors of titanium alloys.
Grinding-wheel wear affects the size precision and the surface roughness of the workpiece.

This was to ensure the required end product consistency by assessing mixture flow properties and color [6].
The final equation in terms of coded factors is given as: Y (mg/g) = 615.43 + 54.26A + 43.54B + 30.94C.
Texture profile analysis is a double compression test and showed the consistencies of texture properties.
