Introduction Nanostructured one dimensional titanium oxides such as nanotubes have raised interest recently due to its light weight, corrosion resistant, excellent mechanical and unique electronic and optical properties [1].
TiO2 nanotube layers has been shown to have a natural ability to join with human bone and have harmonizing factor with the human bone, hence forming good biocompatible orthopedic material which provides an excellent physical bonding with the surface of bone [3].
Moreover, experimental conditions and methods employed to assess cellular activities might also affect the results [14].
MCF-7 cell viability decreased with time when grown on nanotube with 90 nm diameter, showing the anti-proliferation property of this latter.
In addition, nanotubes with these specifications would prevent cancer cells from growing with the anti-proliferation property the nanotubes possess.

The principle of operation of a resonant testing machine is based on the idea of ​​a mechanical resonator with a three-mass vibration system.
An example of delamination of the specimen during testing Thus, a change in the loading frequency of the specimen is an effective factor in determining the occurrence of cracks in the specimen and indirectly estimation of damage level.
Nevertheless, the thermal state of the specimens even in tests with the highest load (27% of σ0) remains satisfactory - the maximum temperature in the heating zone does not exceed 40° C, which does not lead to a decrease in the strength properties of the polymer matrix.
Of course, it does not affect the entire theme of this area.

Addition of ethanol with different volumes to the DIW significantly improved Au NPs properties in the mixture.
A simple method for controlling the properties of Au NPs produced in the binary mixture of DIW-ethanol by laser ablation technique is presented.
The changes of optical and morphological properties of the synthesized particles with time were also studied.
Results and Discussion The effects of ambient liquid on the properties of the prepared Au NPs were studied.
Low ablation efficiency of Au NPs in pure ethanol can be attributed to several factors, among which the most important are the properties (e.g., temperature, pressure, and density) of the plasma after its confinement in each solution.

Introduction The material composition of cement stabilized macadam is one of the main factors which affect the compaction, thus researching on the compaction effect of cement stabilized macadam which had added fly ash and water-reducing agent under vibration compaction is important for improving compaction on the actual projects.
Since surfactant has hydrophilic and hydrophobic organic compounds in the two groups, when adding aqueous solution, these compounds can reduce the surface tension of water (water-gas phase) and interfacial tension (water - solid phase).Through adsorption - dispersion, lubrication, wetting, electrostatic repulsion, "ball bearing” effect and other s so on, it may reduce the mixing water, enhance the density of cement, improve cement pore structure and increase mixture’s strength, impermeability, freeze-thaw resistance, anti-carbonation and other properties [5].
From the above we can see that mixed additive (high-performance water-reducing agent and fly ash) can effectively improve the compaction properties of cement stabilized macadam.

These three crucial factors are indispensable in achieving sustainability: environmental balance, economic potentials, and social responsibility [7].
An agreeable interaction among these factors ensures balanced societal growth and development [8].
In assessing the risk involved in the processes, several factors are interrelated and their connections are usually not spontaneous.

Introduction Many attractive mechanical and electrical properties make silicon carbide (SiC) a material of interest in both electronic devices and sensors for nowadays technology.
Different polytypes have widely ranging physical properties.
We analysed the TO mode because it is not affected by doping and it gives information about the quality of the crystal lattice as well as its strain field.
The carrier concentration was calculated in function of the depth fitting the Longitudinal Optical mode (cross-section) in Raman spectra by the following function: I(ω) = S·A(ω) Im [-1/ε(ω)] (1) where S is a proportionality factor.

Attempts have been made to come up with a solid-state laser comparable to NdYAG which is currently the most common due to its easy maintenance, good thermal and mechanical properties [2].
However as of late, reports are still lacking in the fabrication of these glass rods as laser mediums and their lasing properties.
Hence, the quality and efficiency of the laser can be directly affected.

High detecting sensitivity of the inspector requires high ultraviolet transmission property of the detecting window.
Besides generating audio noise and radio interference, corona and arcing on power lines and substations accelerate degradation of various grid components and can indicate a number of factors which may cause an outage and/or safety issue.
For the inspection and detection of corona discharge on overhead transmission lines, UV cameras are specifically designed for use in power transmission, substations and high voltage applications, these cameras can also detect other sources of UV including leakage from fluorescent lights, tungsten halogen lamps, alcohol and brush fires and can be able to visualize corona in full daylight without being affected by sun radiation.
Quartz Glass Material Quartz glass has special functions as high mechanical intensity, good anti-hotness character, steady chemistry property, and small electric loss.
It has good transmission property from infrared to UV rays, so it is an ideal optic material and widely used in microelectronics and precise optics.

Besides states of the Ge NCs, the interface levels between SiOx/Si and Ge/SiOx, with x ≤ 2, play a crucial role in transport properties of Ge-NC/SiOx/Si heterostructures.
The band formation was ascribed to the presence of Ge NCs on silicon oxide surface affecting the energy structure in lateral and transversal direction.

As an alternative for powder metallurgy, shock wave consolidation (SWC or Explosive Compaction) is used to consolidate composites where the grain size is a factor to maintain, to avoid the intermetallic-compounds formation and when needed to combine heterogeneous materials [2].
Because the machining of aluminum metal matrix/ceramic composites and 2-phase systems with a traditional process is difficult due to the highly abrasive nature of ceramic reinforcements and/or second phases, Electrical-discharge machining, as an alternative, has proven to be useful to machine Al/SiC [5,6], Al/Al2O3 [7] systems, another merit of WEDM machining technique in machining MMC's, which have the highest hardness in reinforcement, is that WEDM process does not involve mechanical energy, thus hardness, strength, or toughness of the work piece does not affect the material removal rate (MRR) [5].
Special consideration is given to the efficiency in the preparation of characterization and mechanical properties testing samples made with the minimum material waste preserving most of the obtained material for late uses, also representative testing results of the cut and obtained 2-phase systems are presented.
