A Continuum (filled polymer) is inhomogeneous and anisotropic. The Continuum is used in an injection moulding simulation at first (generally unnewton type of fluid). Then the continuum is solid (after cooling) and it is possible to carry out ordinary structural analysis with it both static and dynamic. The solid continuum has different mechanical properties for each of discrete element. The consequent values of mechanical characteristics (after simulation of load) will generally have different values when influence of injection moulding is taken into account for analyses.

Polymer nanocomposites offer various functional advantages required for several biomedical applications. For example, polymer nanocomposites are biocompatible, biodegradable, and can be engineered to have mechanical properties suitable for specific applications. The key to the use of polymer nanocomposites for different applications is the correct choice of matrix polymer chemistry, filler type, and matrix-filler interaction. This paper discusses the results of a study in the processing and characterization of nono-filled polymer composites and focuses on the improvement of its properties for potential biomedical applications. The experimental procedure for the preparation of nano-filled polymer composite by ultrasonic mixing is described. Different types of nanofillers and polymer matrix are studied. Effects of processing parameters such as percent loading of fillers, mixing time on the mechanical properties of the composites are discussed. Preliminary results indicate improvement in shear and flexural properties, tensile and compressive properties, were observed in the prepared composites for some processing conditions.

A material (polymer + glass fibers) is characterized by its inhomogeneity and anisotropy. This material is subjected an injection molding simulation at first (generally unnewton type of fluid). Then the material is cooled and common structural analysis (static, dynamic and thermal) is performed. The cooled material has dissimilar mechanical properties for each of discrete element. Thus the mechanical properties (after simulation of load) will completely have different values when influence of injection molding is included.

SAP2000 structural analysis software is used to designed two of 500kV partially prestressed reactive powder concrete pole cross arm; moreover, poles of the two cross arm program have been compared. The results show that the triangular truss cross arm has good mechanical properties, improving the main mate’rial of the stress state, the pole reduced height 10m, by the analysis of the structure shows, this cross arm has higher reliability under the operating conditions, which can be used in 500kV transmission line; from economic and technical performance, the pole cost of this program is greatly reduced, while speeding up the construction progress and improving the comprehensive benefits of the poles in the transmission line.

The multi-component composites could represent the cheapest solution when controllable properties are required. In order to establish the right amount of filler it is necessary to analyze not only the electro-magnetic and mechanical properties but also, the thermal ones. The filler presence in the matrix produces discontinuities at the fibre-matrix interface with consequences regarding mechanical properties. Using a single filler it is possible to improve one or two properties electrical and thermal conductivity for instance and mean time to induce a decrease of other properties as bending strength, shock resistance etc. Using polymer layers with relatively high electrical conductivity as external layers of laminate and magnetic particles filled polymer as core layers. An electric circuit might be, at the same time, the reinforcement of a composite leading to lighter structures and, based on carbon fiber’s properties might transmit information about the material’s loading, temperature or integrity. Fabric reinforced or textile composites are used in aerospace, automotive, naval and other applications. They are convenient material forms providing adequate stiffness and strength in many structures. The microstructure of composite reinforced with woven, braided, or stitched networks is significantly different from that of tape based laminates. The properties of the composite depend not only on the properties of the components but on quality and nature of the interface between the components and its properties. Reinforced composites with filled epoxy matrix were formed using a hybrid technique consisting in layer-by-layer adding of reinforcement sheets into a glass mould. Various distributions of reinforcement sheets and filled polymer layers were realized in order to point out the ways in which the final properties might be controlled. Mechanical properties were analyzed.
