To predict ultimate strength of a laminated composite subjected to any load only using its constituent fiber and matrix properties measured independently, three challenging problems must be resolved with high success. First, internal stresses in the fiber and matrix must be accurately determined. Second, efficient failure detection for laminae and laminate upon the internal stresses must be achieved. Last but not the least, input data for the in-situ strengths of the constituents must be defined correctly from their original counterparts, as the former, different from the latter, are immeasurable. This presentation briefly summarizes our work on the targeted subject. All of the three issues have been systematically addressed with reasonable success.

Although the abrasive reinforcement in MMCs primarily controls their machining behavior, the properties of the matrix also exert an influence. A 1200 W diode laser was used, due to the large footprint (5×0.3 mm) and the short wavelength (0.94 μm) to pre-treat a 2618 (18% SiC) alloy. The laser heating and self-quenching of the material modified the matrix properties. Machining performance was then assessed by measuring tool wear and edge condition, cutting forces, surface finish, and sub-surface damage. Results indicated that pre-treatment gave less wear, lower forces, and less sub-surface damage although abrasion remained the primary wear mechanism.

Abstract The study of nanostructure, thermal and relaxation properties (by HAADF-STEM, EDXS, DMA and DSC), combined with the calculations of interparticle distances and interfacial areas, has been performed for a series of the hybrid Cyanate Ester Resin (CER)/Si02 polymer composites with 0.01 to 10 wt.% Si02 units introduced via a sol-gel process. The absence of clusterization, arising only subnanometric Si02 nodes and their quasi-regular distribution within the amorphous matrix, with the shortest distances between nodes, provided their exceptional positive impact on the matrix properties at ultra-low Si02 contents of 0.03-0.1 wt.%. The superiority of these subnanocomposites over the nanocomposites was determined by the role of constrained interfacial dynamics over the whole matrix.

The problem of stability analysis for a class of nonlinear discrete time systems with time varying delay is studied in this work. Such systems are modeled by delayed difference equations. Subsequently, this system is transformed into an arrow form matrix representation. Using M-matrix properties, novel sufficient stability conditions are determined. It is shown how to use our method to design a state feedback controller that stabilizes a discrete time Lure system with time varying delay and sector bounded nonlinearity. The originalities of our findings are shown in their explicit representation, using system’s parameters, as well as in their easiness to be employed. The obtained results demonstrate also that checking stability of a nonlinear discrete time systems with time varying delay can be reduced to an M-matrix test. Several examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the introduced technique. <br>
