Abstract
316L stainless steel alloys are extensively used in orthopedic applications for the fixations and substitutions of defective bone tissues in the human body. this study attempts to increase the alloy's resistance against corrosion, and improve the bone-implant interaction by encouraging the osseointegration while maintaining its good mechanical properties, through applying a modified coating layer of PMMA-based composites with two different bio-active ceramics i.e. hydroxyapatite and titanium carbide as reinforcement materials using dry electrostatic spray deposition (ESD) under constant conditions. The biological behavior of the coated samples was studied by investigating their corrosion, antibacterial, and wetting attributes. The results revealed that a high surface wettability, good osteoconductivity, improved antibacterial, and anticorrosion attributions were also observed.
After the discussion committee recorded its observations on the thesis, which were divided between explanation and correction and the student’s defense of her message and the discussion ended, the committee decided to evaluate the thesis, and decided to grant the student a master’s degree with a full grade.

Abstract
The study aimed to improve and reduce bacterial growth and environmental pollution by using ceramic nanoparticles powders included in cement mortar. Cement mortar modified by Nano-Composite Powders (NCPs) was fabricated in order to study the effect imposed by these NCPs on the biological, physical and mechanical properties. The NCPs that were used in this study are (CuO-MgO, CuO-ZnO, and CuO-CoO). These NCPs were prepared by the sol gel method. The results show CuO-MgO, CuO-ZnO and CuO-CoO NCPs give improvement in the physical, mechanical and biological properties to a greater extent than the control cement mortar without NCPs and specifically anti-bacteria and toxicity property.
After the discussion, the committee recorded its notes on the thesis, which were split between explanation and correction, and the student’s defense of her work and the discussion ended. The committee decided to evaluate the thesis and grant the student a doctorate degree with a full grade.

Abstract
This work aims to use the Fused Deposition Modeling technique, which is one of the three-dimensional printing techniques to manufacture samples of a composite material with a polymeric basis of (ABS) reinforced with glass fibers and carbon fibers separately in different weight ratios (1%, 2 %, 3%, 4%) for the purpose of studying the effect of fiber content and type on the mechanical and physical properties of the manufactured part. The work methodology included the use of the Taguchi method in designing experiments and the MOORA technique to obtain the optimal selection of a number of factors for all characteristics at the same time. The results showed that with the increase of the fiber content, there was a gradual improvement in the mechanical performance, and the highest percentage of improvement in the mechanical properties was achieved when 4% of the fiber content was added, and the physical performance decreased in terms of surface finish.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this work is compare the effects of incorporation of (TiO2, Al2O3 and SiO2) nanoparticles on the phase structure, microstructure, and morphology of the nanocomposite coatings synthesized by electroless deposition technique. a design of experiments (DOE), the desirability-based Taguchi orthogonal array (OA), is designed and the influence of the factors are evaluated using analysis of variance (ANOVA). Desirability functions have been used for single optimization and multi-response optimization (multi-objective optimization). According to the single optimization results, the optimal parameters of (EN) coating process are (corrosion rate (0.120 mmpy), Nano material (SiO2), bath temperature (80°C), plating time (40min.), microhardness (516.2667 HV), bath temperature (100 °C), plating time (120 min.). From (ANOVA) results, it is observed that the Nano material has the most significance effect on the composite desirability of (EN) coating. (SEM) characterization showed that the surface of (EN) coatings is smooth, low porosity, and dense. Corrosion measurements have proven that the corrosion resistance of low carbon steel increases with the presence of (SiO2) Nano-particle.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this work is treating concrete cracks with autonomous self-healing and manufacturing microcapsules suitable for the previous purpose. This can be achieved through: 1- Using (Nano-SiO2, or Nano-SiC with cement) (as a healing material) in the heart of the manufactured capsule and using (Polystyrene) to encapsulate the microcapsules. 2 - manufacturing microcapsules by Pelletization (Fluidized bed coating). -3Inserting the microcapsules into concrete in different weight proportions.4- Make a small crack and evaluate the efficiency of the self-healing mechanism with these additives in the concrete. 5- Healing products are verified by performing diagnostic tests like SEM, XRD, EDS. The results showed the manufacture of microcapsules of appropriate size compared to other methods. The results of the tests for insert the capsules inside the concrete showed a significant improvement in the mechanical and physical properties. 100% complete incision healing was observed for samples containing microcapsules and by SEM, EDS, and XRD test, the microstructure became more efficient.
