Composites are combination of two or more materials that results in better properties than those of the individual components used alone. There are many disadvantages of using composite materials such as lightweight, high strength, corrosion resistant, high strength-to-weight ratio, high impact strength, high electric strength (insulator), low maintenance, etc. Because of that, composites are one of engineer’s favorite materials nowadays. Almost in all sectors like oil, gas, aviation, and automobile industries are all using composite materials. In order to meet increasing technical, technological and economic requirements, the use of modern, composite materials becomes increasingly prominent. Especially in oil and gas industry.
At first, the

In general, epoxies are stiffer and stronger, but more brittle than polyesters, it also has wide variety of properties. Epoxies also retain their properties better in high temperatures than polyesters do, but epoxies are expensive and has a long curing time. On the other hand, polyester has faster cure time and cheaper than epoxy, but has lower variety of properties than epoxy. When we look at phenolic’s propeties, it has many positive properties that epoxy and polyester do not have. These materials are much like a thermoplastic material at room temperature but change to a thermosetting material at elevated temperature. They are cheaper and stronger then epoxy and many polyester resins. The disadvantage is their relatively high shrinkage during curing. The last one, polyethylene (PE), is one of the most versatile and widely used thermoplastics in the world because of its excellent properties like toughness, near-zero moisture absorption, excellent chemical inertness, low coefficient of friction, ease of processing and unusual electrical properties. Based on their properties, we can assume that the usage of these 4 composites are to complete the advantages and disadvantages from each composites to obtain the properties that we …show more content…
The pipes are divided into two section, fluid transport pipes and drill pipes. The manufacture of fluid transport pipes and tanks of the storage thereof are similar. The most frequently used composites are GRP (glass reinforced plastic) composites, also known as fiberglass composites. Those composites are made of standard plastic matrix reinforced with glass fibers. Plastic matrix in GRP composites is most usually made of epoxy resin (GRE pipes) or vinyl-ester (GRVE pipes), and sometimes polyester. GRE pipes are characterized by: high corrosion stability, high value of "strength/mass" relation (much higher than with steel), small mass, electrical non-conductivity, dimensional stability, chemical inertness and smooth pipe surface. Operating pressure lies within broadband from atmospheric pressure up to 40 MPa. Maximum operating temperature is slightly higher than
3. Insulation material: made from XLPE and isolate between the three phases, its thickness is about 5.5 mm along the cable 4. Outer semiconductor: uniformly distribute the voltage on the surface of the insulation 5. Earth layer: made from copper, used to ground the cable, in case of short circuit it protect the cable by leaking the short circuit current into the ground, its thickness is about 25mm2 area 6. Filling: synthetic fibers used to make the cable circular and to fill the gap between the phases 7.
The test can be performed at various pressures depending on the application in which the connector is going to be used. For example, in undersea application the pressure will be high on the connectors. [26] 7.4.2 Insulation Resistance Testing

This is about the workplace, what they do, and where the top places to work at are. Railway Technicians at Burlington Northern Santa Fe have stated on Glassdoor INC, “Pros are great culture. Management is good. Overall, the organization highly incentivizes long-term employment as there
Another aspect to look at is the size of the company. Some people like to grow within a company faster than others. You would need to take in account the full layout of the company. A smaller organization might not have as many opportunities as a larger organization. A larger organization might not have enough personnel in management to establish a working relationship with their employees.
Composite doors in Greasby are worth considering as replacement doors for your house. These doors are highly regarded for their strength, durability and good looks! A composite door is made of a range of materials, instead of a singular material such as wood or upvc, that have been chosen specifically for their beneficial properties. It is typically made from a combination of materials such as PVC, wood, insulating foam and GRP (glass reinforced plastic).
Moreover, the employee get involved more to help the organization succeed.
When employees see they are valuable to the company and they are secure it gives them confidence and in return they give their loyalty to the

Introduction: The term 'advanced development technology ' in construction industry covers an extensive variety of present day techniques and practices that envelop the most recent improvements in materials technology, design methodology, amount studying, offices management, administrations, structural examination and design, and management skills used in construction industry. Technological advancements in different fields such as medical industry, business industry, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, civil engineering etc. have brought many positive impacts. Fusing advanced development technology into construction industry can expand levels of value, proficiency, safety, maintainability and incentive for money. The advanced technologies in construction industry are very useful for all type of small and large scale construction projects.
In this case, students experience the atmosphere of the work and familiar with the business environment, so that they understand the requirements of the employee, and it is beneficial to find own ability and the gap between the enterprise and the school. Students have a better understanding of the future work environment, in order to determine their learning goals and
Introduction Dimension stones All natural stones* which can be cut to sizes, polished and used for construction purposes, are referred to as dimensional stones.,) including marble, granite and slate { m p _plant) the dimension stones basically consists of two main classes of rocks: “Calcareous material” or “Marble” comprising the whole class of carbonate rocks amenable to sawing and polishing, and “Siliceous material” or “Granite” including the whole set of eruptive rocks having granular structure and poly-mineral composition these two classes represent the large majority of „dimension stones (Ciccu et al., 2005).(paper9) Marble The word Marble comes from Greek word “Mamaros” which means shining stone Marble is a non-foliated, Granular Metamorphic
The former can be heated and shaped and are used in the modern world many times, containing everything from children's toys to toilet seats. Because they can be melted down and reshaped, thermoplastics are usually recycled. Thermoset plastics can only be heated and shaped once, after which the molecular changes mean they are “cured,” retaining their shape and strength even when they are subjected to intense heat and the pressure. Thermoset plastics plays a vital part in our modern world.
