This study aimed to evaluate the compressive characteristics and toughness of polymeric fiber reinforced cementitious composites (PFRCC). In the experimental program, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibers were used to prepare two groups of PFRCC cylinders with different fiber contents. The main factor considered in this study was the reinforcing index. Several parameters were investigated, i.e. compressive strength, elastic modulus, strain at peak stress, Poisson’s ratio and toughness of PFRCC. The results revealed that there was a reduction in both compressive strength and elastic modulus as the reinforcing index increased, while a significant increase in the strain at peak stress was observed. Moreover, a comparison was made between different methods of toughness estimation and it was found that 7.9 was the best reinforcing index for PVA fibers based on the energy absorption performance and ductility of PFRCC. Furthermore, an empirical model is proposed in this paper to predict the PFRCC-PVA compressive stress-strain curve. The proposed model features new formulas to calculate a number of important coefficients to plot the curve based on the reinforcing index value. Besides that, the model had good convergence compared to the experimental results, with perfect values for both variance and correlation coefficient.

Aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) are crucial to the progress of composite application areas due to their remarkable mechanical properties. Their usage has expanded into different fields such as the aerospace, automobile, and defense industries. The present study used wrought Al alloy AA6061 as the matrix, while ilmenite (FeTiO3) particles were used as reinforcement at different weight percentages to prepare metal matrix composites. One of the most economical and simple casting routes among the several available fabrication techniques for the preparation of composites is the stir casting method, which was applied in the present investigation to prepare the AMCs. The machinability of the fabricated composites and the surface roughness property after machining were studied to understand the effect of speed and feed during machining. The results showed that an increase in speed decreased the cutting forces and the surface roughness. Meanwhile, an increase in surface roughness was observed with an increase in feed.

Infiltration of copper oxide towards LSCF was done in order to enhance cathode performance due to superior properties, including high electrical conductivity and high catalytic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction. Samples were synthesized at different temperatures using the sol-gel route. The TGA results showed that LSCF achieved complete perovskite formation when calcined above 600 °C and DTA showed the formation of lattice oxygen at 550 °C. XRD analysis showed no shifted peaks and nano size levels were achieved when samples were calcined at 700 °C and 800 °C. SEM and BET showed similar analysis patterns, where the particle size increased as the calcining temperature was increased. EIS analysis further verified that the polarization resistance of the sample calcined at 700 °C was as small as 0.161 Ω, compared to 1.524 Ω with a calcination temperature of 800 °C. The activation energy of LSCF-CuO was found to be 122.2 kJ/mol, which is much lower than for conventional LSCF.
