fibres that are embedded in a matrix [1], [2]. A composite is unlike an alloy because in an alloy, the other components have been produced by naturally occurring changes. There is a diversity of types of composites currently available, since “it is possible to design materials with property combinations that are better than those found in the metal alloys, ceramics and polymeric materials” [3]. The main ones focused on in this essay are polymeric matrices, metal matrix composites and ceramic composites

REPORT [pic] Presented to Dr. Joseph Wakim BAD 433 Notre Dame University Presented by Lina Khadij Nay Harfouche January 9, 2009 Introduction Indevco group was founded in 1972 by George Frem. Likewise, continuing to respond to Lebanon's market needs, Frem founded Sanita in response to the country's emerging consumerism and lack of refuse disposal systems. In this report, we discuss one of Indevco Group’s companies, namely Sanita. We shed the light on Sanita’s role

in n-dimensional Euclidean space, where n is the number of factors. We can call this region the ecological niche of the species in question. For example, suppose we restrict ourselves to three factors, such as temperature, nutrients, and pH. Assume that the temperature must be between t1 and t2 degrees, the amount of nutrients between n1 and n2 and the pH between a1 and a2 . Then the ecological niche these define occupies the region of 3-dimensional Euclidean space shown in Figure 1. Figure
