Evaluation of mechanical and electrical properties of a new sensor-enabled piezoelectric geocable for landslide monitoring

The embankment and slope are prone to internal deformation and progressive failure under the coupling action of water, heat and force. Therefore, scholars have attempted to reflect the coupled deformation of soil through deformation measurements of geosynthetics. However, all the current measurement methods are non-distributed methods, and there are problems such as a significant installation effect, small strain measurement range, and low survival rate. In view of these issues, this study used a sensor-enabled piezoelectric geocable (SPGC) based on the piezoelectric effect and impedance-strain effect. The laboratory in-isolation and in-soil tests were carried out, and the signals of the strain–stress-impedance-voltage of SPGC under different failure modes were tested. The results showed that the tensile strength and elongation at break of the SPGC reached 53.6 MPa and 45.46%, respectively. During the tensile failure process of the SPGC, the strain–stress curve was divided into five stages, the strain-normalized impedance curve was divided into three stages, the strain-voltage curve was divided into two stages, and there were three characteristic points that could be classified as level 3 warnings. Empirical calculation formulas for the strain-normalized impedance was established, and the strain of the SPGC within 10% could be qualitatively described and quantitatively calculated by monitoring the normalized impedance. During the clay drawing failure process of the SPGC, the normalized impedance increased and the voltage decreased with the increase of pulling displacement. During the clay shear failure process of the SPGC, a bilinear model could be used to describe the correlation between shear displacement and normalized impedance. The voltage increased with the increase of shear displacement. The research findings suggest that SPGC can realize soil disaster location, precursor identification, and graded early warning, and is expected to provide a distributed, real-time, and refined measurement method for the entire life cycle of geotechnical engineering operation and maintenance monitoring.

Comparative evaluation of mechanical properties of short aramid fiber on thermoplastic polymers

Abstract This study investigated the mechanical performance of short aramid fiber on polypropylene, polyethylene, polyamide 6, and polyamide 12. Extrusion, press molding, and CNC cutting methods were used in the production of composite samples. Tensile, three-point bending, drop weight and hardness tests of the composites were carried out. As the fiber volume fractions increased, the mechanical properties of the composites improved, but the most efficient fiber fractions for each matrix changed. To analyze the performance of the fibers in the matrix on the composites, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of the fractured surfaces as a result of tensile and drop weight tests were examined. As the fiber volume fractions increased, the fiber deformation increased, and as a result, the mechanical performance of the composites was adversely affected. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and F test were performed using signal/noise values to analyze in detail the effect of experimental parameters on output values. Finally, the results of a regression equation model were compared with the experimental readings. It was found to be in good agreement with the model and the results of the experiment.

Evaluation of mechanical properties of glass fiber-reinforced composites depending on length and structural anisotropy

Recently, as the size of liquid natural gas (LNG) carriers has dramatically increased, applied force in the LNG Cargo Containment System (CCS) has also increased. However, the existing E-glass fiber-reinforced composite, which plays an important role to prevent accident as secondary barrier induced LNG leakage, has remained unchanged. In case of in-situ length of the composite in membrane type of MARK-III LNG CCS, it is continuously installed as a prolonged structure by using automatic bonding machine (ABM). From this point of view, it should be considered that the length effect of the mechanical properties to represent an infinitely long distance for structural reliability. Fracture strength of a brittle material, such as glass fiber components, is generally not constant because of the variable quantity and distribution of imperfections throughout the composites. In this study, 2-parameters of Weibull distribution were derived to standardize the widely dispersed fracture strengths under the quasi-static tensile test condition. As a result of the experiments by length, the standardized failure strength associated with scale parameter (63.2% probability of failure over all the repeated tests) in the Weibull distribution increases until it reaches a specific length at 250 mm, at which point it stops rising and converges to a constant value. This tendency indicates that material properties at the specific length will be reliable for mechanical evaluation of the composites under the infinitely prolonged condition.

Mechanical properties evaluation of ReBCO CICC jacket based on super-austenitic stainless steel for CFETR high-field magnet

To excite stronger magnetic fields, high temperature superconducting (HTS) insert coils are planned for the next generation central solenoid magnet for China fusion engineering test reactor (CFETR). The development of high strength and high toughness jacket has become one of the challenges in the application of high-field cable-in-conduit conductors （CICC）. 0.2% proof stress of jacket should be over 1500 MPa at 4.2 K for HTS conductors, thus 316LN and JK2LB jackets developed by ITER do not meet the requirements. Nitronic 50 (N50) super-austenitic stainless steel material has great optimization potential for the development of jacket. Based on the modified N50 material, China prepared the CICC jacket and has done some R&D work on the N50 jacket. The entire process of ReBCO CICC preparation, including extrusion, bending and straightening, was simulated using the N50 stainless steel jacket. The N50 circle-in-square jackets prepared in China showed a yield strength greater than 1600 MPa and a fracture toughness KIC better than 110 MPa·m1/2 after cold work at 4.2 K. This paper will focus on the preparation, cold work processing and performance test of the N50 jacket. This study will present experimental data and discuss the feasibility of modified N50 as a high-magnetic field jacket material for next-generation fusion reactors.

Evaluation of workability, microstructure and mechanical properties of recycled powder geopolymer reinforced by waste hydrophilic basalt fiber

The recycled powder geopolymer (RPG) is an environmental-friendly cementitious material prepared from recycled powder (RP) recovered from construction waste. The preparation of geopolymers has promoted the development of sustainable materials, but the great brittleness limits the application scenarios. In this paper, the waste hydrophilic basalt fiber (WHBF) was used to reinforce RPG and the mechanical properties, toughness and microstructure were evaluated. The results indicated that the addition of WHBF significantly improved the compressive, flexural and tensile strength of the RPG. Adding 0.6% WHBF with 6 mm in length and 13 μm in diameter improved the compressive strength, flexural strength and tensile strength by 59.43%, 85.20% and 121.74% in 28 days, respectively, compared to the control group. The single fiber pull-out test and Digital Image Correlation (DIC) analysis indicated that the interfacial properties of the WHBF with appropriate geometric parameters were high and the direction and rate of crack growth were significantly changed, which greatly improved the toughness of the matrix. The analysis of water absorption and Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP) showed that although the incorporation of WHBF increased the porosity of RPG, the pore size was small and had no adverse effect on the matrix. The microstructure analysis showed that the addition of WHBF benefited the formation of additional gel, which provided a better bonding and frictional stress transfer path for the composites. Meanwhile, the energy absorption capacity of the composites was significantly improved and the crack propagation was inhibited. Furthermore, the WHBF enhanced the long-term drying shrinkage performance of RPG. This work suggested that the recycled powder geopolymer reinforced by waste hydrophilic basalt fiber shows excellent potential for application.

Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Different Casing Drilling Steels

An investigation into the mechanical properties of K55, N80, and P110 steels commonly used for casing drilling was carried out together with microstructural and fractographic analysis. The results show that P110 steel consisted of almost fully tempered martensite and exhibited a synergy combination of static tensile, dynamic impact, and fatigue crack propagation properties among the three steels, possessing a higher fatigue limit and deeper crack tolerance before failure occurred. The K55 steel consisted of the pearlite and network structure of ferrite and possessed a high strain hardening exponent and low impact property, which led to the more suitable application under incidental large overload and temperature change, but it was unsuitable under the condition of higher impact force. The properties of N80 steel were moderate, and its fatigue property was higher than that of K55 and lower than that of P110; its incidental overload resistance was also higher than that of P110. The casing drilling steel can be selected according to the environment.

Dialdehyde xanthan gum and curcumin synergistically crosslinked bioprosthetic valve leaflets with anti-thrombotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-calcification properties

Currently commercial glutaraldehyde (GA)-crosslinked bioprosthetic valve leaflets (BVLs) suffer from thromboembolic complications, calcification, and limited durability, which are the major stumbling block to wider clinical application of BVLs. Thus, developing new-style BVLs will be an urgent need to enhance the durability of BVLs and alleviate thromboembolic complications. In this study, a quick and effective collaborative strategy of the double crosslinking agents (oxidized polysaccharide and natural active crosslinking agent) was reported to realize enhanced mechanical, and structural stability, excellent hemocompatibility and anti-calcification properties of BVLs. Dialdehyde xanthan gum (AXG) exhibiting excellent stability to heat, acid-base, salt, and enzymatic hydrolysis was first introduced to crosslink decellularized porcine pericardium (D-PP) and then curcumin with good properties of anti-inflammatory, anti-coagulation, anti-liver fibrosis, and anti-atherosclerosis was used to synergistically crosslink and multi-functionalize D-PP to obtain AXG + Cur-PP. A comprehensive evaluation of structural characterization, hemocompatibility, endothelialization potential, mechanical properties and component stability showed that AXG + Cur-PP exhibited better anti-thrombotic properties and endothelialization potential, milder immune responses, excellent anti-calcification properties and enhanced mechanical properties compared with GA-crosslinked PP. Overall, this cooperative crosslinking strategy provides a novel solution to achieve BVLs with enhanced mechanical properties and excellent anti-coagulation, anti-inflammatory, anti-calcification, and the ability to promote endothelial cell proliferation.

Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of 3D-Printed Polymeric Materials for Possible Application in Mouthguards.

Custom mouthguards are used in various sports disciplines as a protection for teeth, temporomandibular joints, and soft tissues of the oral cavity from impact forces. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the mechanical properties of flexible polymeric 3D-printable materials and to select a material with the most favourable physical properties for making intraoral protectors. Four 3D-printable polymeric materials were selected for the evaluation: IMPRIMO LC IBT (Scheu-Dental, Iserlohn, Germany), Keyortho IBT (EnvisionTEC, Gladbeck, Germany), IBT (Formlabs, Somerville, MA, USA), and Ortho IBT (NextDent, Utrecht, Netherlands). A total of 176 samples (44 from each material) was 3D-printed using the stereolitography (SLA) technique. Tensile strength, flexural strength, notch-toughness, Shore hardness, sorption, and solubility tests were conducted. The materials were compared using a series of analyses of variance (one-way ANOVA) with Bonferroni post hoc tests. Statistical analyses were performed with the use of IBM SPSS Statistics 28.0.0 software (IBM, New York, NY, USA). Each material was assigned a score from 1 to 4 depending on the individual test results, and tests were given indexes according to the significance of the parameter in the mouthguard protective function. The number of points obtained by each material in each test was then multiplied by the test index, and the results were tabulated. The material with the highest result among the ones studied-most suitable for the application in mouthguard fabrication-was Keyortho IBT from EnvisionTEC.

Evaluation of porosity, mechanical and thermal properties of self-ignition coal gangue-based foams via fast microwave foaming

Recently, the large-scale stock and pollution of solid waste has become a serious environmental and economic problem. Upcycling the solid waste to produce porous materials is a value-added waste management method. Self-ignition coal gangue-based alkali-activated foams were successfully produced via a fast microwave foaming method within a few minutes. The effect of alkali concentration on pore structure, porosity, mechanical and thermal properties of alkali-activated foams was explored. Alkali-activated foams with low bulk density (0.41–0.81 g/cm3), high total porosity (65.6–83.5 vol%), acceptable compressive strength (0.92–4.42 MPa), and low thermal conductivity (0.11–0.14 W/mK) were obtained by a fast microwave foaming method. The foams showed excellent high temperature performance. The compressive strength showed an increasing trend after heat treatment from 500 to 1100 °C. Simultaneously, a low high-temperature volume shrinkage (4.0–4.1%) was achieved. The obtained foams can be used as high-performance proppant materials, thermal insulation building materials, and in fire-resistant applications.

Microstructure and Mechanical Performance of Tin-Based Babbitt Alloy Containing Iron Oxide and Silica Nanoparticles

Iron oxide and silica nanoparticles were individually incorporated in tin-based Babbitt alloy and combined to prepare a novel class of nanocomposites for bearing material applications. The route of liquid metallurgy in combination with the stirring technique was adopted to manufacture nanocomposites. Microstructural evolution and mechanical property evaluation were performed by optical and electron microscopy, EDS, hardness, compression, and wear tests. The morphology of the Cu6Sn5 phase was changed from elongated to spherical in the microstructures of nanocomposites. The solitary addition of 0.5 wt% iron oxide nanoparticles improved the hardness and compressive strength but adversely affected the wear properties by increasing the weight loss and friction coefficient value. In contrast, the addition of 0.5 wt% silica nanoparticles could not significantly increase the hardness and compressive strength but it could improve the tribological properties by reducing the weight loss and friction coefficient value. Tin-based Babbitt alloy showed a compressive strength of 89.22 ± 0.50 MPa after the addition of 0.5 wt% iron oxide showing a rise of ~11%. The combined effect of the addition of both types of nanoparticles showed considerable results, i.e., a rise of ~7.9% (86.75 ± 0.68 MPa). The balanced approach of incorporating dual reinforcements of 0.25 wt% iron oxide and 0.25 wt% silica nanoparticles intermediately improved the hardness, compressive strength, and decreased weight loss.

Experimental Evaluation of Mechanical and Tribological Properties of Segregated Al-Mg-Si Alloy Filled with Alumina and Silicon Carbide through Different Types of Casting Molds

A 6061 aluminum alloy has almost 0.8–1.2 wt.% Mg and 0.4–0.8 wt.% Si content. These two components, along with other alloying elements, therefore, were characterized by high mechanical and abrasive strength. The aims of the present work were to understand the effect of different types of cooling rates through different molds materials and to investigate the effect of casting with ceramic additives on segregation of the aluminum alloy itself as a composite material forum. Therefore, a series of mechanical tests were conducted, such as compression test, Vickers hardness, and pin-on-disc wear test. The samples were cast at 650 °C and in electric furnaces for 2 h to ensure that the metal achieved adequate homogeneity and temperature. Then, abrasive macroparticles of Al2O3 and Sic with a size close to 40–60 µm were used. The particles were poured under constant stirring for 1 min. Then, they were cast in two types of molds: steel and graphite. The cast specimens were obtained as a reference without particles and with 0.5 wt.%, 1 wt.%, 2 wt.%, 3 wt.%, 4 wt.%, and 8 wt.%. The thermal effect and the heat due to conduction and radiation were calculated. The maximum compressive strength was found to increase by ≈21% with SiCp casted in graphite molds, and HV was found to increase by ≈29% with SiC casted in graphite molds. The same was found for wear resistance, which became good with SiC casted in graphite molds, and it was generally found that the cooling rate through the mold weakened the alloy due to the segregation effect. The presence of tough particulate through the aluminum matrix barrier created a number of loads. Additionally, the high specific heat of graphite, which plays a dominant role in the slaw cooling rate of casting, led to grain enlargement, whereas the higher cooling rate of steel led to grain refinement. These concepts are the main rules of heat treatments through the casting process itself, and they save time and effort.

Microstructure, retained austenite, and mechanical properties evaluation of Vanadis 60-HfC-Ta0.6Nb0.4C steel matrix composite by vacuum sintering, sub-zero, and heat treatments

This study added different ratios of HfC and Ta60Nb40C powders to Vanadis 60 high-speed steel powders, and then, the Vanadis 60 composite was sintered from 1215 to 1260 °C by vacuum sintering for 1 h. The experimental results reveal that the optimal sintering temperature and the additive amount for Vanadis 60 composites were 1230 °C and 0.5 mass% HfC-0.5 mass% Ta60Nb40C powders, respectively. Moreover, the optimally sintered Vanadis 60 composite possessed an apparent porosity of 0.37%, the transverse rupture strength (TRS) value was 2212.1 MPa, and the hardness value was 80.3 HRA. In addition, it underwent sub-zero plus heat treatments, where the TRS and hardness values were significantly enhanced to 2451.7 MPa and 86.0 HRA, respectively, after quenching, sub-zero, and tempering treatments. The research results of TEM and EBSD show that MC, M6C, M7C3, and M23C6-type carbides obviously appeared in the composite after vacuum sintering, heat treatment, and sub-zero treatments.

Microstructure and Mechanical Properties Evaluation of Microalloyed Low‐Carbon Reduced Activation Ferritic/Martensitic Steel

A novel method for reducing the amount of M23C6 carbides, increasing the amount of MX carbonitrides, and decreasing the coarsening rate of M23C6 carbides is put forward to improve the high‐temperature properties of reduced activation ferritic/martensitic (RAFM) steel. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, tensile tests, and impact tests are used to systematically investigate the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of RAFM (RAFM‐0.1C) steel, low‐carbon RAFM (RAFM‐0.04C) steel, and minor boron and nitrogen microalloyed low‐carbon RAFM (RAFM‐CBN) steel. Some δ ferrite develops when C decreases from 0.1 to 0.04 wt% and subsequently disappears after 0.01 wt% N addition. The amount and size of M23C6 carbides and dislocation density decrease with the decrease of C (RAFM‐0.04C), while the amount of MX carbonitrides is 2‐3 times, and dislocation density is ≈2 times higher than that of RAFM‐0.04C steel after 0.01 wt% N addition (RAFM‐CBN). Compared with RAFM‐0.1C steel, the yield strength at room temperature and 550 °C slightly decreases for RAFM‐0.04C steel and considerably increases for RAFM‐CBN steel. The contributions of microalloy on strengthening mechanisms of RAFM steel at room temperature are also systematically revealed by combining the experimental and theoretical data.

Interface Microstructure–Based Mechanical Property Evaluation of C-S-H

The grain–grain interface of cement, which is composed of the complex needle-shaped microstructure of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), is crucial in the development of the mechanical properties of cementitious composites. These C-S-H needles grow radially outward from the grain surface. This work proposes a combined experimental and modeling approach to incorporate the finer details of these needle geometries and the distribution of mechanical properties in an interface-based multiscale mechanical model for hydrating tricalcium silicate (C3S). At micrometer and sub-micrometer length scales (<5 μm), electron microscopy images revealed that the geometrical nature of these needles at the grain interface varies with days of hydration. The mechanical properties of C-S-H at the nanoscale were observed to be higher at the inner core and reduced toward the outer product. The model developed can incorporate the details of these needle microstructures and their mechanical properties at the microscale and can predict the bulk properties of hydrated C3S at higher scales.

Fiber Orientation and Strain Rate-Dependent Tensile and Compressive Behavior of Injection Molded Polyamide-6 Reinforced with 20% Short Carbon Fiber.

As the interest in short-fiber reinforced polymer (SFRP) composites manufactured by injection molding increases, predicting the failure of SFRP structures becomes important. This study aims to systemize the prediction of failure of SFRP through mechanical property evaluation considering the anisotropy and strain rate dependency. To characterize the mechanical properties of polyamide-6 reinforced with carbon fiber of a weight fraction of 20% (PA6-20CF), tensile and compressive experiments were conducted with different load-applying directions and strain rates. Additionally, the results were discussed in detail by SEM image analysis of the fracture faces of the specimen. FE simulations based on the experimental condition were constructed, and the numerical model coefficients were derived through comparison with experimental results. The coefficients obtained were verified by bending tests of the specimens manufactured from composite cross members fabricated by injection molding. Predicting under static and high strain rate conditions, small errors of about 9.6% and 9.3% were shown, respectively. As a result, it proves that explained procedures allow for better failure prediction and for contribution to the systematization of structural design.

Evaluation of mechanical, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties of vanillic acid induced chitosan/poly (vinyl alcohol) active films to prolong the shelf life of green chilli

Vanillic acid incorporated chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) active films were prepared by employing a cost-effective solvent casting technique. FTIR investigation validated the intermolecular interaction and formation of Schiff's base (C=N) between functional groups of vanillic acid, chitosan, and poly(vinyl alcohol). The addition of vanillic acid resulted in homogenous and dense morphology, as confirmed by SEM micrographs. The tensile strength of active films increased from 32 to 59 MPa as the amount of vanillic acid increased and the obtained values are more significant than reported polyethylene (2231 MPa) and polypropylene (31–38 MPa) films, widely utilized in food packaging. Active film's UV, water, and oxygen barrier properties exhibited excellent results with the incorporation of vanillic acid. Around 40 % of degradation commences within 15 days. Synergistic impact against S. aureus, E. coli, and C. albicans pathogens caused the expansion of the inhibition zone, evidenced by the excellent antimicrobial activity. The highest antioxidant capacity, 73.65 % of CPV-4 active film, proved that active films could prevent the spoilage of food from oxidation. Green chillies packaging was carried out to examine the potential of prepared active films as packaging material results in successfully sustaining carotenoid accumulation and prolonging the shelf life compared to conventional polyethylene (PE) packaging.

Investigation on the Mechanical Properties and Strengthening Mechanism of Solid-Waste-Sulfur-Based Cementitious Composites.

This research used waste ceramic powder (CP) to replace aggregate, fly ash (FA) as filler, and combined them with sulfur to prepare composite cementitious materials. The variations of the mechanical properties with the aggregate proportions (aggregate mass/total mass) of 65%, 70%, and 75%, and the FA contents (FA mass/aggregate and filler mass) of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% were studied. The correlation evaluation model of sulfur content, CP content, FA content, and mechanical properties was established using the gray correlation theory, and the comprehensive mechanical property evaluation model was established as the foundation of the entropy method. Finally, the optimum proportion of the solid-waste-sulfur-based cementitious composites was determined. Results showed that, without FA, the CP increased from 65% to 75% and the comprehensive mechanical properties of the specimen increased by 60.53%. After FA was added, the peak point of the comprehensive mechanical properties appeared in group S75F10, which was 0.9210. During the hardening of the cementitious material, sulfur was mainly used as a binder, CP played the role of skeleton and part of the filler, whereas, as a crystal nucleus, the FA promoted the transformation of the sulfur crystals. Both the CP and FA can reduce the porosity of the specimen to a certain extent and have potential defect repair ability, thus densifying the matrix and improving the strength. When the proportion of sulfur: CP: FA is 1:2.7:0.3, the flexural (FS), compressive (CS), and splitting tensile (STS) strengths of the specimen are 14.8, 86.2, and 6.8 MPa, respectively. The flexural (FCR) and tensile (TCR) compression ratios are 0.172 and 0.079, respectively.

Evaluation of mechanical properties and biocompatibility of three-layer PCL/PLLA small-diameter vascular graft with pore diameter gradient

A three-layer small-diameter vascular graft (SDVG) of polycaprolactone (PCL) and l-polylactic acid (PLLA) with pore diameter gradient was prepared through combining variable-extrusion speed iterative electrospinning and ultrasonic reaming. The SEM results showed that the three-layer PCL/PLLA SDVG has distinct pore diameter gradient. The Young’s modulus, ultimate tensile strength (UTS), burst pressure (BP) and compliance of the vascular graft were high as 20.116 ± 0.465 MPa, 2.259 ± 0.141 MPa, 2050 ± 249 mmHg and 4.203 ± 0.330 %/100 mmHg, respectively. The UTS of the graft is similar to human coronary arteries. The BP meets the basic requirements to prevent aneurysmal dilation, and the compliance is higher than that of sheep carotid artery. The fluid–solid coupling simulation results showed that the graft had high mechanical properties to withstand the same blood flow velocity as human coronary arteries, and there was no stress concentration in the wall. Besides, it had good biocompatibility, promoting the adhesion and proliferation of rat vascular endothelial cells (ECs). The successful preparation of the small-diameter vascular graft with high mechanical properties for preventing itself from rupturing and ensuring the overall function, provides more possibilities for the clinical transplantation of small-diameter vascular grafts.

Mechanical properties evaluation of FFF-printed ABS samples based on different process parameters combined with ANOVA and regression analysis

The fused fabrication process (FFF), is one of the most popular additive manufacturing technologies used for prototyping and production applications. On the other hand, poor mechanical characteristics significantly impact the application of FFF parts, and a variety of process parameters can influence the effectiveness of parts produced with FFF. Infill density, layer thickness, print speed, and extrusion temperature are the essential FFF parameters for fabricating parts and the dimensional integrity of printed specimens. This research aims to examine the functional performance of ABS fabricated through FFF. The study’s various variables include extrusion temperature (230°C, 240°C, and 220°C), feed rate (20, 35, and 50 mm/s), and layer height (0.1, 0.15, and 0.2 mm). Based on various combinations, elongation at break, energy, tensile strength, and compressive strength will be assessed. The measured lowest tensile and compressive strengths are 25.252 and 38.52 MPa, respectively, and highest tensile and compressive strengths are 33.96 and 185.94 MPa, respectively. As a result, changing the different process variables increases tensile strength by 34.49% and compressive strength by 382.71%. Fractography analysis is also performed to understand the failure modes of specimens, indicating pulling, necking, failure of raster’s, and voids for the considered specimens. To examine the dependency and relationship of the tensile and compressive strength on the process parameters, statistical analysis is performed using ANOVA, Taguchi’s L27 array design of experiment, and regression analysis. It indicates that layer height has the most significant influence on tensile and compressive strength, followed by extrusion temperature and feed rate.
