It is difficult to optimize the slips because of complicated structure and many geometric parameters affecting the mechanical property of the slips.
There are many parameters effecting the mechanical property of the slip while doing optimization design.
In order to simplify the problem, we give preference to those factors effecting the mechanical property notably.
There are four factors in the design and each factor contains four levels.
The distribution of factors and levels are shown in table 1.

By invoking the properties of nanostructures, it may be possible to enhance the energy dissipation.
Small nanoparticle volume (up to 10% and up, if price drops) may greatly affect material's behaviour due to extreme nanoparticle properties over traditional materials [5-7].
Thermoplastic polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyamide and polyurethane granular particle powders (Dupont Plastics, USA) were used for comparison of the technology capabilities and mechanical properties due to nanoparticle reinforcement.
The material has excellent adhesion, shear strength and energy absorbing/damping properties over bulk materials.

Introduction Electrical conductivity of composite material with a polymeric matrix is mainly related to the weight percentage of the conductive filler, the size and shape of its particles and also to other factors such as adhesion between the host phase and the matrix, the method of processing and possible interactions between the conductive and non conductive phase [1].
The major advantages of the material are lower cost and lightweight, good corrosion resistance, relatively good mechanical properties, and good gas tightness while the major disadvantage is that polymers have extremely low electrical conductivity, so excessive conductive filler has to be incorporated.
In this case, it is difficult to get high conductivity and sufficient mechanical properties simultaneously.
As a result, composite plate materials with high graphite content are extremely brittle, and have poor gas barrier properties.
Decreasing of hardness properties of SG and NG epoxy composite caused a lack of resin to bind the fillers, incomplete packing occurs during the fabrication process and thus, the fillers act as insulators and defects in the structure.

To improve sound absorbing property, porosity and water absorption tests are also conducted by adding rice husk.
Many individuals are unaware that noise pollution is a serious issue that affects human health, including their own.
However, markers of quality of life and mental health appear to be more affected by noise.
For this purpose, there exists a wide range of sound absorbing materials which provide absorption properties that depend on the frequencies, composition, thickness, density, porosity etc.
They are produced in rolls with different thermal, acoustical and mechanical properties.

State-of-the-art mechanical blade dicing Mechanical blade dicing is the state-of-the-art dicing technology in semiconductor industry not only for SiC.
These characteristics are dependent to the mechanical properties of the material.
The laser heats up the material to some hundred degrees Celsius without affecting the temperature sensitive polyimide coating near dicing street.
Although, TLS is a two-step process the throughput can be increased by a factor of 10 compared with mechanical blade dicing.

The thermal, mechanical and degradation properties of these polymers are strongly depended on their crystallinity [7-9].
Tsuji and Ikada [7] reported that the properties of neat PLL membrane depended on the crystallinity.
From these previous reports, it is clearly seen that the study of crystallization is necessary for understanding the factors that affect the properties of the design materials.

The graphite nodule count, size distribution and homogenization of the nodules distribution are the factors which are of more significance for the properties of the material.
Introduction Cast iron is a composite type of alloy in which the graphite shape, size, count and distribution, all are affecting the mechanical and thermal properties of the alloy.
If the degree of non-homogeneity is higher, then the mechanical properties can be affected but if it exist locally in small areas then it might not have much influence on the overall mechanical behaviour.
A detail study was performed on these samples such as porosity distribution and comparison in the mechanical properties between different parts, but only the information regarding the graphite structure in some selected samples, is included here.
