an overview of the smart materials. The various types of smart material are also presented in this paper. To get the clear idea about the smart materials‚ its definition and types are explained briefly. Some of the types of these include piezoelectric materials‚ magneto-rheostatic materials‚ electro-rheostatic materials‚ and shape memory alloys piezoelectric‚ Varieties of smart materials already exist‚ and research is being carried out extensively to derive new materials.

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

RAW MATERIAL AND SOURCES OF AVAIBILITY The paint industry is raw material intensive. Paint involves the mixing of various raw materials in various proportions. The raw materials are of a wide variety. On an average‚ raw materials account for 60% of net sales (industry average). In case of small-scale units it forms up to 70% of the net sales. Raw materials are divided into three major groups‚ namely‚ pigments (titanium dioxide‚ zinc oxide etc.)‚ solvents (mineral turpentine) and resins and

MATERIAL DEVELOPMENT We designed a language-literacy material. We designed a story which we can read to children with story card technique. We illustrated this story in such manner that is appropriate for their age. In the story‚ there is a bear family and they set out on a journey in forest. The main character in the story is Barni. When Barni set out on a journey in forest‚ it learns counting numbers. We also designed materials with felt. With these materials‚ after children read or listen

Wood/timber Building material these are raw woods that have been converted in the forms of minimally- processed logs stacked on each other‚ timber frame construction‚ and light- frame construction. It is used as load- bearing material depend on the quality criteria. Concrete composite building made from combination of aggregate material and a binder such as cement. It is one of the most durable building materials. It provides superior

Engineering Materials Msc. Shaymaa Mahmood Introduction to Eng. Materials : Since the earliest days of the evolution of mankind ‚ the main distinguishing features between human begins and other mammals has been the ability to use and develop materials to satisfy our human requirements. Nowadays we use many types of materials‚ fashioned in many different ways‚ to satisfy our requirements for housing‚ heating‚ furniture‚ clothes‚ transportation‚ entertainment‚ medical care‚ defense and all the

( PROD 20303 ) Materials & Manufacture Materials Selection Exercise In the lecture this week you were introduced to the idea of a systematic approach to materials selection. Within the discussion‚ a number of examples were provided of ways in which a short list of materials might be identified for a given type of product using key property criteria as the method of differentiating between possible selections. Final choice can then be made by grading the candidate materials against defined
