Composite Materials A composite is a combination of two or more materials bonded together to gain some overall necessary goods. Types of composite include: laminated materials fibre composites particle composites. A laminate contains thin pieces of material fused together. Common examples are plywood and car windscreens. Wood is durable when exposed to a ductile force equivalent to its grain‚ but if the strength is across the particle it splits simply. A windscreen is made in a parallel way; two

SMART MATERIALS 1. Introduction The primary characteristic of a ‘‘smart material’’ is that it has the ability to respond to external stimuli in a technically useful and technically controlled way. The words ‘‘technically useful’’ and ‘‘technically controlled’’ are emphasized since all materials respond to external stimuli of some sort or other (as a simple example‚ all materials respond to temperature by changing their volume)‚ however‚ to be considered a ‘‘smart material’’ the response must

on Magnet materials • Alnico Magnets Alnico magnet alloy is largely comprised of Aluminum‚ Iron‚ Cobalt and Nickel. Alnico is a moderately expensive magnet material because of the Cobalt and Nickel content. Alnico magnet alloy has high maximum operating temperature and a very good corrosion resistance. Some grades of Alnico alloy can operate upwards of 1000C. Magnets made with this alloy are available in a variety of grades and dimensions and they are usually cast. Alnico magnet material is an older

enables a high precise fuel consumption measurement also at low flow rates and short measurement times. With a high accuracy mass flow sensor the fuel consumption is determined continuously and via direct mass flow measurement in kg/h. The density does not have to be determined in addition to the direct determination of the gravimetric or specific fuel consumption like in volumetric measurement methods. The fuel consumption can thus be determined to an accuracy of 0.12% for the whole system under
