The present study was conducted to clarify the effect of incorporation of seaweed, i.e.funori (Gloiopeltis tenax(Turner)J. Agardh) into buckwheat noodles on their mechanical characteristics. Mechanical analysis of buckwheat noodles withfunori showed that incorporation of funori into buckwheat noodles enhanced breaking stress and energy. On the otherhand, incorporation of funori into buckwheat noodles enhanced decreased solubility of the albumin plus globulin frac­tion. The present study findings suggest that the endogenous protein may be an important factor responsible for themechanical characteristics of buckwheat noodles with seaweed.Received: December 5, 2018; accepted: January 30, 2019Keywords: common buckwheat, mechanical characteristics, noodles, seaweed

In recent years the production of products derived from wood and bamboo are increasing, due to the search for a more rational exploitation of these raw materials. Amongst these products, the particleboards production combine sustainability and rationality in the use of these materials. In this context, this work has the objective to study the application of alternative raw materials in the manufacture of Medium Density Particleboards (MDP), using residues from industrial processimg of coffee and bamboo. MDP had been produced with particles of giganteus bamboo of the Dendrocalamus species and particle of coffee rind in the intermediate layer of the particleboard, bonded with polyurethane resin based on castor oil. The physical and mechanical characterization was carried out accordingly to NBR 14810-3 (2006). The physical properties evaluated were: of water absorption for 2h and 24h; thickness swallowing for 2h and 24h; density, humidity content. The mechanical properties evaluated were: Tensile strength, static bending (MOR and MOE). The results were compared with NBR 14810-2 (2006) and also with the ANSI A208-1 (1993). The physical performance of these particleboards was below the values recommend by the Brazilian norm. Also the mechanical characteristics are not improve, demonstrating that the inclusion of coffee rind did not benefit the physical characteristics and nor the mechanical ones. However it can be used as construction materials for partitions and ceiling panels.

The mechanical characteristics are determined to a FeB/Fe2B coating applied in AISI L6 steel tool and blades make to cut paper. The thermochemical treatment was applied at temperatures of 1173, 1223 and 1273 K with permanence time of 0.5, 2 and 3 h for each temperature. The diffusion coefficient and activation energy for each phase is obtained for this boron coating on an AISI L6 steel. HRC test were made to establish the type of adherence (qualitative) and comparing with the VDI 3198 standard and the results were obtaining optimal classification of HF1-HF2 in condition for 3h of the three temperatures. The result by nanoidentation show hardness of 1000 - 2000 HV as well as the Young's modulus for each present phase of the coating. Through micrographs (SEM) are showing thicknesses up to 79.52 ± 18.82 μm for FeB and 97.80 ± 20.01μm for Fe2B, a morphology sawn ́s type is evidence. Through EDS and x-ray diffraction are used to show the chemical elements formed.

Measurement of the mechanical behavior of hydrated gels is challenging due to a relatively small elastic modulus and dominant time-dependence compared with traditional engineering materials. Here polyacrylamide gel materials are examined using different techniques (indentation, unconfined compression, dynamic mechanical analysis) at different length-scales and considering both viscoelastic and poroelastic mechanical frameworks. Elastic modulus values were similar for nanoindentation and microindentation, but both indentation techniques overestimated elastic modulus values compared to homogeneous loading techniques. Hydraulic and intrinsic permeability values from microindentation tests, deconvoluted using a poroelastic finite element model, were consistent with literature values for gels of the same composition. Although elastic modulus values were comparable for viscoelastic and poroelastic analyses, time-dependent behavior was length-scale dependent, supporting the use of a poroelastic, instead of a viscoelastic, framework for future studies of gel mechanical behavior under indentation.

The preparation and the thermal and mechanical characteristics of lignin-containing polymer biocomposites were studied. Bisphenol A glycerolate (1 glycerol/phenol) diacrylate (BPA.GDA) was used as the main monomer, and butyl acrylate (BA), 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (EHA) or styrene (St) was used as the reactive diluent. Unmodified lignin (L) or lignin modified with methacryloyl chloride (L-M) was applied as an ecofriendly component. The influences of the lignin, its modification, and of the type of reactive diluent on the properties of the composites were investigated. In the biocomposites with unmodified lignin, the lignin mainly acted as a filler, and it seemed that interactions occurred between the hydroxyl groups of the lignin and the carbonyl groups of the acrylates. When methacrylated lignin was applied, it seemed to take part in the creation of a polymer network. When styrene was added as a reactive diluent, the biocomposites had a more homogeneous structure, and their thermal resistance was higher than those with acrylate monomers. The use of lignin and its methacrylic derivative as a component in polymer composites promotes sustainability in the plastics industry and can have a positive influence on environmental problems related to waste generation.

The present study was conducted to clarify the effect of a kind of blue-green algae, i.e., ishi-kurage , on the mechanical characteristics of buckwheat noodles. Mechanical analysis of buckwheat noodles with ishi-kurage  showed that incorporation of ishi-kurage  into buckwheat noodles enhanced breaking stress and energy. Sensory evaluation with human panels showed that buckwheat noodles with ishi-kurage  were more preferred when compared with noodles without ishi-kurage. On the other hand, incorporation of ishi-kurage  into buckwheat noodles enhanced decreased solubility of the albumin plus globulin fraction. The present study finding suggests that the endogenous protein may be an important factor responsible for the mechanical characteristic of buckwheat noodles with ishi-kurage.

The mechanical characteristics of dentine have been investigated on local scale by micro-hardness and instrumented indentation tests. FIMEC, an indentation technique employing a cylindrical punch, permitted measurements of elastic modulus, yield stress, stress-relaxation and creep. The punch diameter (Φ = 0.5 mm) is much larger than the tubule size thus data are not so largely scattered as in micro- and nano-indentation tests but, at the same time, is small enough to guarantee a good resolution in mapping the mechanical properties in different tooth positions. The results are in agreement with literature data obtained by means of various experimental techniques. Furthermore, through tests of mechanical spectroscopy carried out on bar-shaped samples (13 mm x 4 mm x 0.8 mm) the dynamic modulus and the damping factor Q-1 have been measured.

In this paper, the use of ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) testing as a reliable technique to determine the compressive strength of a calcarenitic stone typical of Salento (South of Italy), known as Lecce Stone (LS) has been investigated. The scope of the experimental research is to establish correlations between the results obtained by non-destructive and destructive tests, in order to reduce the use of destructive methods within the diagnostic procedures for the mechanical analysis and qualification of ancient masonries. Furthermore, the presence of water as a variable affecting the test was investigated. The results of the tests show that the UPV values are well correlated with the compressive strengths and this method showed to be efficient in predicting the strength of LS.

In this work the influence of accumulative roll bonding (ARB) process on the microstructure and the mechanical characteristic is investigated. Therefore, AZ31 magnesium sheets were successfully deformed through ARB for a maximum of three passes. Twin roll cast sheets and twin roll cast sheets with subsequent heat treatment (480 °C, 1 h) were used as initial materials. After one ARB pass, the highest microstructure changes were measured. Electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) reveals a bimodal microstructure with an average grain size of ~1µm. In comparison to the initial material a strong basal texture was measured. The significant refinement of grain size after severe plastic deformation cause an increase of tensile and compressive strength, e.g. rising yield stress and ultimate tensile strength of 42% and 15%, respectively. However, the maximum formability remains nearly at the same level. Further ARB passes do not improve the mechanical characteristics further.
