Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of GFRP Composites Reinforced with Single Wall Carbon Nano-Tubes by Immersion in Normal and Sea Water under Hydro-Static Pressure Dr.
The present work aims on evaluation of various mechanical properties of glass fiber reinforced polymer composites (GFRP) with inclusion of single walled carbon nano tube (SWCNT) in different weight fractions.
The main properties that describe a composite material are the engineering constants and the strength properties of a single unidirectional lamina that make the laminated structure.
Factors affecting water absorption include: type of plastic, additives used, temperature and length of exposure [2, 3].

Extensive laboratory tests were carried out and the focus of this paper was to characterize the mechanical and permeability properties of concrete containing scrap tires.
The mechanical properties of rubber concrete were affected considerably by the size, proportion and surface texture of rubber particles [8-12].

One of such tasks is the directed change of physical and mechanical properties of a surface of an initial product that provides possibility of its operation in the specified conditions.
The mechanical properties of the coatings and the glass substrates were measured using the NanoHardnessTester (CSM Instruments, Switzerland) under a load 20 mN.
The results of investigation of the mechanical properties of the coatings Al-Si-N formed by impulse magnetron sputtering are shown in Fig 3.
Researches of mechanical properties of glasses with Al-Si-N coatings showed that they have higher hardness and coefficient of elastic recovery in comparison with those for quartz glass without coatings.
The main factors affecting the mechanical properties are the crystallization of AlN and α-Si3N4 nanophases and the presence of high residual stresses in the II-AlSiN coating, due to the formation of a columnar structure.

This experimental study was undertaken to identify the significant factors that affect the output responses while machining of 10 vol%Al2O3/Al composite material.
However, since the material is subjected to such a high temperature, the mechanical and chemical properties of workpiece may be affected adversely.
The physical and mechanical properties of the composite material are provided in first section of Table 1.Using causal method and a preliminary pilot study, the factors that may affect these three responses in EDM were identified.
The results are in line with those reported in literature [17] which reported that pulse on-time is the most significant factor affecting the thickness of recast layer while machining dual phase Fe-Mn-Al alloy.
CONCLUSIONS The experimental study was undertaken to identify the significant factors that affect the output responses while machining of 10 vol%Al2O3/Al composite material.

Their specific mechanical properties are illustrated in Fig. 1 [1,2].
The constituent elements determine the basic properties of the resulting alloys, but they are also influenced by several other factors.
Four core effects have been identified that affect their properties: large-entropy, lattice distortion, slow diffusion and the cocktail effect.
Thus, the mechanical properties of the alloy decrease with increasing temperature to a lesser extent than conventional alloys.
High-entropy alloys have outstanding mechanical properties and can retain their mechanical properties at high temperatures.

The tested oil film working properties was analyzed by comparison with theoretical or simulation references.
Experiments show that film balance time and thickness are two key parameters for describing oil film properties, and that working condition factors such as supply pressure, lubricating fluid temperature also notably affects the film thickness and its configuration, but they don’t show equivalent action.
The port pair gap is affected by structure and motion precision from itself and other parts.
Moreover, leakage flow rate, viscidity and oil temperature and frictional torque etc, are also the important characteristic parameters because all of them have a bearing up on oil film shape or properties.

Panels were manufactured using 13% corn starch modified with glutardialdehyde with addition of 2 % urea formaldehyde resin and tested for their physical and mechanical properties.
The mechanical properties were comparable to those made using 15 % urea formaldehyde resin with reduction of formaldehyde fume was over 50 %.
However to successfully achieve that, even very little reduction of adhesive in the panels can significantly influence both physical and mechanical properties of the final product.
Researchers had tried to find the ways to reduce the emission by studying the factors that affecting the fume release such as resin type, degree of condensation, the moisture content of the wood particles before pressing, wood species, the type and amount of hardener, the type and amount of additives, press conditions and conditioning after particleboard making process [4].
properties and formaldehyde release Table 2 showed the mechanical properties of manufactured particleboards.

Zn-Mg alloys will have superior mechanical properties with high biosafety [5].
This is because several factors such as temperature, composition, compacting pressure and other factors can affect the mechanical properties and also the rate of degradation of Zn-Mg alloys that can affect the surrounding tissue.
This change causes the mechanical properties of Zn-Mg alloy to be better.
The Zn-Mg alloy does not lose its mechanical properties before the bones undergo healing.

However, the study result largely depends on the factors considered during the building of the model.
According to the analysis of tribological systems, friction and wear characteristic of friction system depends on many factors, which compose the system.
The environmental media affected solid, lubricant oil, process on the solid surface, determines tribological properties of the system.
