It’s an important factor affecting slope stability in the expansive soil area.
Because of its special engineering properties and mechanical properties of expansive soil [1], channel slope instability is one of the major technical problems of South-to-North Water Diversion Project.
Study on failure mechanism and mechanical properties of expansive soil are carried out by use of large centrifuges, high-precision CT triaxial apparatus scan .
The safety factor of channel slope is 1.09.
Finite element analysis for slope stability and its influencing factors with pile reinforcement.

Pulsed current welded joints have given superior mechanical properties comparative to continue current welded joints.
This often results in inferior weld mechanical properties and poor resistance to hot cracking.
This zone is known as heat affected zone (HAZ).the unaffected base material is that the portion of the base material wherein the welding heat did not exceed the minimum required to affect its structure or properties.
Therefore the heat transfer and fluid flow in the weld pool can significantly influence factors such as weld pool geometry, temperature gradient local cooling rates and solidification structure.
(i) Pulsed current welding is found to be beneficial to enhance the mechanical strength of welded joints and mechanical properties of pulsed current welded joints are superior compared to the continuous current welded joints.

High temperature at the machining area affects the surface properties of both electrodes especially on the workpiece machine surface.
The structure of the heat affected layer is different from the base material.
Although it is favorable in term of improved wear resistance, defects such as voids, cracks, residual stresses, etc. result in overall deterioration of the component mechanical properties.
Pulse interval will affect the speed and stability of the cut [8].
The selection of tool electrode material is so important by mean to obtain high expectation of desirable properties of tool electrode.

These factors increase the difficulty of analysis.
As the mechanical properties of adhesive are different at high strain rates, the failure parameters for analyzing adhesive joints should be based on experimental results at different strain rates.
As adhesives are polymer materials with significant viscoelastic characteristics, strain rate has obvious effect on mechanical properties of adhesive.
In addition, this model has established effective links between the mechanical properties of adherends and adhesive.
The commonly used specimens are ENF with less production and little factors to affect the results.

This study explored the effect of VS processed FDM fabricated PLA products on the mechanical properties, specifically the strength.
Hence, this may also affect other product properties [6].
Birosz et al. in agreement with Fernandez-Vicente et al.’s research, studied the effects of infill patterns to mechanical properties.
Substructure (Infill pattern) significantly impacts its resulting mechanical properties [12].

Mechanical properties were determined on tensile test bars taken from the centre of the casting.
The demand for good mechanical properties will be even more pronounced in these castings.
Spherical morphology of the precipitated graphite is the most important factor to achieve required mechanical properties. [1-6] Heavy-sectioned parts are characterised by low cooling rate and long solidification time.
Nodularity must be 80% or more to achieve the required mechanical properties.
Mechanical properties in thermal center of cones.

They performed cyclic pressure load tests of 400µm~500µm pre-cracks in silicon nitride balls and found that the pre-crack length strongly affected the fatigue strength.
Table 1 shows its mechanical properties [6].
Table 1 Mechanical properties of the Si3N4 specimens [6].
The initial values of the maximum stress intensity factors KImax were plotted on the vertical axis.
It was found that the pre-crack length strongly affects the fatigue strength of silicon nitride balls.

Liu Bailing [7] studied the biodegradation of PVA and its affecting factors and the results showed that molecular weight, crystallinity of PVA have a decisive effect on its biodegradability.
The effects of starch content, plasticizer content and mixing conditions on the processing temperature, melt flow rate and mechanical properties of PVA/Starch film were investigated.
Best mechanical properties were measured when the starch content was 40%, water content was 33% and plasticizer was 60 phr.
The strong hydrophility of starch affects the blend properties, so that the mechanical performance and waterproof performance of starch-based biodegradable plastic is poor.
The results showed that esterified starch film’s mechanical properties could reach application requirement when PVA was 30%, glycerol was 10%, coupling agent was 3% and glass fiber was 7%.

This analysis can point design parameter values of interest and the effect of factors on the properties.
Fiber length and amount are related to probability of fibers meeting that favors connection between channels, affecting porosity, density and permeability.
The Figure 8 show this factor’s influence in the S/N, of each assessed property, what the slope indicate the degree of factor’s influence on the property.
ANOVA verified which factors were statistically significant.
As the experiment aims higher permeability and mechanical performance associated with lower porosity and density, sample 2 showed better response of these properties, but its fluid dynamics property was compromised.

In particular, Cu-Zn-Al foams present good pseudoelastic properties and they are potential candidates for damping applications [1-2].
This final procedure does not affect the Cu-Zn-Al foam structure.
Ms [ºC] Mf [ºC] Transformation width [ºC] MET A 15±1 -6±2 21±3 MET B 39±8 -8±9 47±4 To rationalize the measured Ms values and main features of the calorimetric measurements for MET A and MET B foams considered the following factors.
Then, some martensite remains retained after each compressive cycle, thus affecting the transformation level measured in the next cycle.
