The Department of Materials Engineering at University of Technology seeks to enhance academic and scientific cooperation between departments with common scientific specializations in various universities. The Department of Materials Engineering signed a Memorandum of scientific cooperation with the College of Engineering at Al-Nahrain University on Thursday, 11/8/2022. The memorandum was signed by Assistant Professor Dr. Hussein Alaa Jaber, Head of the Materials Engineering Department, and Prof Dr. Basem Obaid Hassan, Dean of the Faculty of Engineering at Al-Nahrain University. This agreement will provide an opportunity for teaching staff to achieve an increase in joint research work by sharing capabilities and exchanging researching experiences. Also, this agreement will work to increase the practical experiences of students through the use of specialized laboratories available between the two parties to enhance the educational process in the service of our dear country.

Abstract
In this study, different laminated composite materials were suggested for modifying the prosthetic socket in order to increase its life and make it more comfortable for its user. Seven laminated composite materials were prepared by using the vacuum molding technique. The matrix material is Lamination80:20 (PMMA) and reinforced by (hemp, Carbon, Glass, Kevlar, and Perlon) fibers with different numbers of layers. The experimental work included mechanical, physical, and miscibility tests. After comparing between laminated composites, hybrid lamination consisting of (4hemp plus 2carbon) is considered to have best mechanical and physical properties such as tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, flexural strength, flexural modulus, max. shear stress, compression strength, impact strength, fracture toughness, and hardness. In addition, it has a lower percent elongation and creep strength than the hybrid laminations made of (4hemp plus 2kevlar) and (4hemp plus 2glass).

Abstract:
Merging membrane technology with the photocatalytic activity of nanomaterials is a promising approach towards minimizing membrane fouling consequences. In this work, nanocomposite membranes were synthesized by non-solvent induced phase inversion process, by immobilizing Tungsten Oxide (WO2.89) nanoparticles (NPs) in polyether sulfone matrix. The results showed that membrane's properties and pollutants' rejection, flux recovery ratio, and flux were improved after NPs addition. It was also found that after exposing the samples to UV light irradiation, the flux recovery ratio was improved for the NPs modified membranes compared to neat membranes. It was found that the flux value at longer time for the NPs modified membranes after irradiation were higher compared to the modified membranes with same NPs loading without irradiation.

Abstract
This thesis lies in two main parts; experimental and analytical work. In the first part, an analytical model was prepared to analyze and calculate the dynamic behavior of the random copolymer polypropylene pipe (PP-R) conveying fluid, using Integrated Transformation Techniques (ITT). In the second part, a semi-active control system was designed using Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller, by employing the shape memory alloy (SMA) wires, made of nickel titanium alloy (Nitinol), to mitigate the vibration of the pipes caused by the fluid flowing inside them. The results demonstrated that there was a large increase in pipe deflection and a significant decrease in natural frequency with increasing temperature and aspect ratio under different fluid velocities. The results manifested that there is a reduction in the level of vibration (about 75%) was obtained by thermal activation of the shape memory wires which leads to alter the dynamic response of the pipe.
