O-ring seal is usual component part in various mechanical apparatus for sealing that makes efficient performance of the equipments. The sealing performance of O-ring is affected in environments of the O-rings, like that applied pressure, working temperature, pre-compressed ratio and materials. In this paper, a pressurized, compressed elastomeric bi-polymer O-ring inserted into a rectangular groove is analyzed numerically using the MARC finite element program. The calculated FEM results showed that bi-polymer O-ring that is manufactured by NBR for an inner and FFKM for an outer ring shows a low temperature distribution among various bi-polymer O-ring models. But, the normal contact stress between the flange and upper part of the O-ring is small compared to other bi-polymer model.

The sealing performance of O-ring is effected in environments of the O-ring seal, like that applied pressure, working temperature, pre-compressed ratio and materials. In this paper, design of composite O-ring under pressurized, compressed was optimized based on Taguchi experimental design method. and it analysed numerically using non-linear finite element method. Ogden model in which is developed based on the experimental data is used for simulating the contact stress and strain in NBR and PTFE materials. Sensitivity analysis was performed with FEM results, which are contact stress, strain and temperature as variable.

The paper deals with a non-linear finite element analysis of the thermomechanical distortions of an elastomeric O-ring seal including a temperature gradient. Axial compression of O-ring seals, as well as the influence of the temperature gradients and various O-ring seal models, are investigated based on the axisymmetric analysis. The highest temperature occurs near the interface of the O-ring between the dovetail groove bottom and the O-ring seal. The calculated FEM results indicate that the composite O-ring with the diametral ratio, 0.8 shows very stable and recommendable compared with other seal models far elevated temperatures and corrosive environments.

O-rings in automotive engines are important components such as a coolant pipe, engine oil circulating lines and fuel injector for sealing that makes efficient performance of the engine. Life cycle of O-rings is effected in environments of the O-ring seal, like that applied pressure, working temperature, precompressed ratio and materials. It is related in extrusion, expansion and fatigue failure of O-rings. In this paper, an pressurized, compressed elastomeric O-ring inserted into a rectangular groove is analysed numerically using the nonlinear finite element method. The calculated FEM results showed that extrusion ratio and contact stress are strongly related to the gap clearance and edge radius of the groove.

Strong deep ultraviolet emitting aniline and $TiO_2$ composite has been synthesized via hydrolysis and condensation reactions of titaniumisopropoxide ($Ti(OPr)_4$), aniline, and acetic anhydride. Three different weight ratios of aniline and $Ti(OPr)_4$ including 3:1 ($TiO_2An-A$), 2:1 ($TiO_2An-B$), and 1:1 ($TiO_2An-C$) were synthesized and characterized their optical properties. The FTIR spectra of the $TiO_2An-A$, -B, and -C showed the absorption intensities of the benzene ring stretching and bending vibrations, and benzene ring -CH stretching, bending, and deformation vibrations increased with the increase of the amount of aniline. The UV-visible absorption spectra showed that the UV region absorption was slightly increased with the increase of the amount of aniline. The photoluminescence (PL) intensities were exponentially increased with the increase the excitation wavelength from 307 to 317 nm, steadily increased from 300 to 313 nm and slowly increased from 302 to 308 nm for $TiO_2An-A$, -B, and -C, respectively and decreased thereafter. Therefore, the PL intensity is strongly dependent on the weight ratio of $Ti(OPr)_4$ and aniline.

The silicon oxynitride bonded $Si_3N_4-BN$ composite has been developed based on the selective oxidation behavier of $Si_3N_4$ over BN. The silicon oxynitride phase converted to the reaction between $Si_3N_4$ and $SiO_2$ formed on $Si_3N_4$ powder surface during oxidation treatment at the sintering temperature. The developed composite has excellent high-temperature strength, thermal shock resistance, precision machinability and corrosion resistance to the molten steel. The developed composite may therefore be used as, for example, break ring materials in continuous casting of steel.

A single-feed composite cavity-backed four-arm curl antenna is presented for use in global positioning systems (GPS). Its primary radiating element is fed by a vacant-quarter printed ring, which helps the antenna directly match to a $50-{\Omega}$ coaxial line and produce a good circular polarization (CP). The cavity-backed reflector is employed to improve the CP radiation characteristics in terms of 3-dB axial ratio (AR) beamwidth and minimum AR value. The optimized design with an overall size of $90{\times}90{\times}25mm^3$ ($0.4725{\lambda}_o{\times}0.4725{\lambda}_o{\times}0.13{\lambda}_o$ at 1,575 MHz) results in a ${\mid}S_{11}{\mid}<-10dB$ bandwidth of 8.66% (1,514-1,651 MHz) and a 3-dB AR bandwidth of 2.23% (1,555-1,590 MHz). The antenna radiates a widebeam right-hand circular polarization and operates with a measured radiation efficiency greater than 90% within its impedance matching bandwidth.

Soft magnetic iron powders have been coated with polyester or phenol resin. And the coated powder (soft magnetic composite) have been pressed into ring type core over the pressure of 870 MPa. Green density, magnetic flux density, permeability, core loss of the samples were measured to look at the effect of the coating materials and the amount of them. Green density is increased with the amount of coating materials and shows the maximum value, 6.5 $g/cm^3$ at 5 w/o, but decreased over it. And lowest value of the core loss is showed for the 5 w/o coated samples.

Friction and wear at ceramic coated surfaces of aluminum alloy were experimentally studied using a Ring-on-Block wear test machine. Ceramic materials coated on aluminum alloy surfaces were WC, CrC, $Al_{2}O_{3}$ by a plasma spray; and $Al_{2}O_{3}$,$Al_{2}SiO_{5}$, $Na_{2}B_{4}O_{7}$,$Na_{4}P_{2}O_{7}$, and $Al_{2}O_{3}-ZrO_{2}$ composite coating by an Anodic Spark Depositon. They were tested under the sliding wet contact and compared with aluminum alloys and steels. Test results showed that ceramic coated surfaces, in general, have better anti-wear property than those of aluminum alloys due to increase in the surface hardness ; however, they also showed higher coefficients of friction and changes in wear mechanisms, resulting in brittle fractures.

The stirred and thixoformed $SiC_p/AZ91HP$ Mg composites are studied on the basis of microstructural analysis using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The products of interfacial reaction are identified as $Mg_2Si$, MgO and $Mg_{17}Al_{12}$ phases and the crystallized phases are found to be orthorhmbic $Al_6Mn$ and decagonal T phases. It is shown that $Mg_2Si$ and $Mg_{17}Al_{12}$ phases are found at the surface of $SiC_p$ and $Al_6Mn$ is found near interface and crystallized on the matrix. Phase identification is carried out by crystallographic work based on primitive cell volume, zero order Laue zone (ZOLZ) patterns and single convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) patterns containing higher order Laue zone ring from a nanosized region.
