transitions related in glass formation. At transition point’s temperature Tg, a laser light is applied to heat polymer materials. Using pressure as a constant variable and temperature as a changing variable it is possible to model the glass transition state. He used some mathematical models that he had tested on glass transition dynamics. In his lab more than seventy materials were identified or verified using thermodynamical scaling models. Moreover he talked about how Lenard Jones potential plot

an overview of the smart materials. The various types of smart material are also presented in this paper. To get the clear idea about the smart materials, its definition and types are explained briefly. Some of the types of these include piezoelectric materials, magneto-rheostatic materials, electro-rheostatic materials, and shape memory alloys piezoelectric, Varieties of smart materials already exist, and research is being carried out extensively to derive new materials. Applications

UNDER SURFACEACTIVE SUBSTANCES (1) The main objective of this work was to develop the influence of surface-active substances in the mechanical properties of injected plastic parts in presence of cracks, a tension test and a constant load. The material used was Polystyrene and the surface-active substances were olive oil and corporal sweat. This study was conducted because it was observed that the surface-active substances affects the mechanical properties of the resin as well as the presence of

In the article “The Problem With Bottled Water” by Richard J. Dolesh, he discusses the negative effects bottled water has on our parks nationwide and provides solutions to make them more sustainable. Bottled water is a very convenient resource for clean water in parks. However, national conservation and health organizations have found that the rapid growth of this luxury has become environmentally hazardous and expensive. The issues starts with the production of bottled water because of the large

industry has experienced lots of changes that occurs by day through the application of composite materials in the manufacturing of motor vehicle parts and body. Several reasons have been advanced in support of this shift from the traditional use of metals. In comparison to the metallic counterparts, many composite materials exhibit relatively greater strength characteristics as compared to the metallic materials. They are also comparatively lighter than the metals and thereby reducing the fuel cost per

Engineers prefer to use columns due to their lightweight and high strength, however, buckling is an important failure to look at whenever there is any structure with an axial load applied on it. Apparatus Required: Tools and materials used in this experiment are: 1. Baldwin Universal Testing Machine with 60, 0000 lb. capacity 2. Ruler. 3. Micrometer or Caliper. 4.
