Cyclic Nanoindentation and Nano-scratch Behaviour of CaCO3/PMMA Nanocomposite
Abstract: The calcium carbonate surface modified with γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane was carried out to prepare poly (methyl methacrylate) based composite. The grafting of PMMA increased as the weight ratio between MMA and n-CaCO3 increased, while the grafting efficiency of PMMA decreased. Transmission electron micrograph showed that MPTMS modified n-CaCO3 covered with PMMA was formed by emulsion polymerisation. The scratch resistance of n-CaCO3/PMMA nanocomposites are highly influenced by reinforcement’s type. The effects of n-CaCO3 …

Experimental Investigation into Surface Roughness of Polished Zinc Plate with Ultrasonic Vibration Using Single Pole Magnetic Abrasive Finishing
Abstract: This research investigates how applying ultrasonic vibrations influences the surface finish quality of zinc plates when using the Single Pole Magnetic Abrasive Finishing (SP-MAF) method. In SP-MAF, magnetic abrasive particles (MAPs)—amalgamation of ferromagnetic and abrasive materials—are guided by a magnetic field to achieve precise surface finishing. Introducing ultrasonic vibration improves the effectiveness of the flexible magnetic abrasive brush (FMAB), which forms as the MAPs align along the magnetic field lines. …

Traversal Speed Comparison of BFS and DFS in Balanced and Skewed Binary Trees
Abstract: In this paper, we provide an analysis of how well both breadth-first search (BFS) and depth-first search (DFS) algorithms perform while wandering through two kinds of binary trees: balanced and skewed. The research was motivated by the practical application of storing files and directories in a certain type of parent-child relationship through the use of hierarchical file systems (e.g., windows explorer). The result of measuring how fast and versatilely these …
