We have done many counts, strength and twist tests - which are considered the most important physical properties that determine yarns quality specification - on cotton yarns at the industrial researches& tests center. The researcher has depended on t
his tests results to find out formulas which match between physical properties of yarns, starting from common formulas then he has proved them by analysis of results that we got from graphic tests instruments, then we have figured out proportion constants between these physical properties from curves that we have got by tests results exemplification and we have shown if these constants describe common constants or new constants.
research The aim of this is to find an explicit relationship between the strength of fibers, bundle and
yarns. The CV values of the strength are given as well. This provides a relatively simple method for
estimation of staple yarn strength, while a
voiding some difficulties of an empirical method. The effects of
important factors such as fiber length and thickness, twist and count of yarn are considered. The results
are verified by published data in Mechanical Engineering of Textile Industries and Their Technologies,
Faculty of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Damascus University. and also in Al-Kumasiah
company in Damascus city.
This research provides suggestions if we apply it it will help in estimating directly the yarn strength
without manufacturing and suitable testing of the yarn.
This study includes an experimental work to determine the effect of ultraviolet radiation (uv-rays) on the mechanical behavior of the conveyor rubber vulcanizing, which used in various transport operations, and in the cement plant Tartus. In this wor
k, it has been prepared different samples of belts, and they were exposed to uv radiation at differente times, then they were tested to know its wear and tensile strength.
The results were compared with samples similar to the samples tested, which was not exposed to the rays of UV, and with other samples exposed to temperatures, and that in order to reach the ideal conditions for the use of these belts, which ensures longer period of use and safe conditions. This study showed that uv-rays increase the average of wear and the tensile strength of belts.
The paper presents some of the results from a large experimental program undertakenat the Department of Civil Engineering of Damascus University. The project aims to study the ability to reinforce and strengthen the concrete by bars from Epoxy polymer reinforced with glass fibers (GFRP) and compared with reinforce concrete by steel bars in terms of mechanical properties.
