Crossed helical gears are used in cars and in many household appliances.The trend towards increased comfort in motor vehicles has led to the utilisation of more than a hundred servo-drives in luxury class automobiles.Important advantages of crossed helical gears are their easy and inexpensive design, low noise perform…
This volume contains the abstracts presented at the 14th European Mechanics of Materials Conference (EMMC14), held at Chalmers, Göteborg, Sweden, on September 27-29, 2014. The ever increasing development of new engineering materials required to meet advanced technological needs poses new challenges in the field of mec…
A phytochemical investigation on the roots of Dracaena marginata yielded nine steroidal saponins. Six of the saponins were isolated as three pairs of 22-hydroxy furostanol saponins and their 22-methoxy derivatives including two new minors identified as 26-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-22α-hydroxy-(25R)-furost-5- en-3β, 26- dio…
This report describes the production of ERM®-EB530A, B and C, aluminium gold alloy material certified for the mass fraction of gold. The material was produced following ISO Guide 34:2009.\nPure aluminium and pure gold were arc melted together to obtain a master alloy Al-5%Au (mass percent). The master alloy was melted…
Man is continuously being exposed to radiation due to its presence everywhere on earth. This study is aimed at determining the radium equivalent activity from the soil samples collected from different locations around a superphosphate fertilizer factory in Nigeria. An efficiency and Energy calibrated high purity germa…

Purpose: Various surgical techniques target achieving adequate keratinized tissue around dental implants; however, these techniques are usually performed before implant placement or upon the exposure of submerged implants. The aim of this case report is to describe a simultaneous placement of an interpositional free g…

製材の強度に寸法効果が存在することは国際的にも知られているが，我が国の軸組構法の構造部材として使用される構造用製材の規格に寸法調整係数は採用されていない。そこで，スギ製材の曲げ強度に対する寸法効果を明らかにするため，丸太からサイドマッチング及びエンドマッチングによって試験体を採取し，曲げ強度に及ぼす材せい及び材幅の影響について検討した。材せいの影響は，材幅を140mmに一定として材せいを300mm，170mm，105mmの3種類について，材幅の影響は材せいを150mmに一定として材幅を150mm，105mmの2種類について，それぞれ標準試験条件によって曲げ試験を実施した。その結果，曲げ強度の平均値は材せいの減少にしたがって増加する…
Author(s): Ma, James Minh | Advisor(s): Kaner, Richard B | Abstract: Thermoelectrics are solid state energy conversion materials which are able to generate power through the Seebeck effect or provide cooling through the Peltier effect. Thermoelectric generators have consistently demonstrated their extraordinary reliab…
This paper represents a numerical study of the massive (60mm) and thin (38mm) wood drying using oscillating drying regimes applied on beech timber (Fagus sylvatica). All thermo-physical properties relative of studied wood are taken from the literature on appropriate experiments. We showed that Luikov’s model can be us…
Fire design of glued-laminated timber beams with regard to the adhesive performance using the reduced cross-section method
This paper describes thermal insulation property of natural fiber-reinforced composites. A thermal insulation property of structural materials is one of the most important issues for creating high energy efficient products. The thermal functionality of natural fiber is mainly derived from its inherent physical and che…
A microcapsulated fire retardant was used with the intention to produce fire retardant textiles. Melamine-formaldehyde polymer-wall microcapsules with triphenyl phosphate core were applied both a cotton woven and a polyester nonwoven fabric using impregnation and screen printing. The samples were observed with a scann…
The early stages of a severe accident are characterised by a loss of cooling capability in the reactor core and subsequent rise in temperature of the fuel & cladding to well in excess of typical operating temperatures. This results in various interactions and reactions between the UO2 fuel, Zircaloy cladding, moderato…
To improve the performance for carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), an innovative joining technology integrating metallic pins into composite structures was investigated in the present work. Through an established mechanical interlocking, a significant improvement of the out-of-plane properties of CFRP was achieve…
New bismuth oxyapatite La9.13Bi0.2(SiO4)6O2 has prepared by the solidstate reaction. X-ray diffraction, FTIR spectroscopy, Raman scattering spectroscopy and SEM-EDS techniques have been used in the characterization of this sample. The average crystalline size has been calculated using the Scherrer formula and it is fo…
This dissertation presents an investigation into the effect of nanoparticle fillers and a polydopamine adhesive primer on the tribological performance of thin PTFE films. The principal objective of this investigation was to reduce wear in PTFE films, an issue which precludes the use of PTFE films in tribological appli…
We report the synthesis of copper oxide nanowires via a facilemechanochemical technique followed by low thermal treatment. The precursors of copper acetatemonohydrate and acetamidewere employed to growthis one dimensionalmorphology.The scanning electronmicroscopyimages (SEM) revealed the formation of desiredNWswith a…
Glass fibre reinforced polymer composites are widely used for industrial and engineering applications which include construction, aerospace, automotive and wind energy industry.During the manufacturing glass fibres, they are surface-treated with an aqueous solution.This process and the treated surfaces are called sizi…
