(marks) 4 (@) Explain the function of THREE (3) main components in composite materials (marks) (©) Imanaligned and continuous glass fiber-reinforced nylon 6,6 composite the fibers are to carry 94 % of load applied inthe longitudinal dtection. Elastic modulus for glass fiber and nylon 6,6 are 72.5 GPa dan 3.0 GPa respectively. Meanwhile the tensile strength are oyns fiber = 3400 MPa and Gis =76 MPa (Determine the volume faction of fiber that wil be required. marks) (®) What ill be the tensile strength, for this composite? Assume thatthe mat stress at fiber failure is 30 MPa. marks) (©) You are given a Metal X for certain engineering application. In order to confirm the capability ofthe Metal X forthe required application, you need to know its properties suchas the ability to withstand an applied stress and to deform plastically by absorbing energy. Choose TWO @) suitable mechanical tests that canbe caried out to determine the above properties forthe metal (@matks) (@) Distinguish between elastic and plastic deformation, (marks) QS (@) Sketch a typical creep curve of strain versus time at constant stress and constant elevated temperature, and explain all three stages of erep, (marks) (©) Is it possible to have a Frenkel defect in covalent erystl? Why? (marks) (©) Describe TWO (2) examples of materials processing that applied diffusion mechanism. (marks) (®) The surface ofa stel gear made of 1018 stool (0.18 wt % C) is to be a 927°C.
