ABSTRACT
The wide use of epoxy composites as bearing materials in electronic appliances necessitates studying their frictional behaviour under the influence of magnetic field. Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of magnetic field on the friction coefficient displayed by the scratch of epoxy composites filled by iron, copper and aluminium particles at different concentrations. It was observed that, for epoxy filled by the metallic fillers (iron, copper and aluminium), under the effect of the magnetic field, friction coefficient showed relative decrease then significantly increased with further increase of the intensity of the magnetic field. Besides, friction coefficient increased with increasing the content of the metallic fillers due to the decrease of the strength of the epoxy matrix. The values of friction coefficient displayed by epoxy filled by copper were lower than those observed for epoxy filled by iron. Filling epoxy by aluminium displayed lower friction coefficient than that observed for epoxy composites filled by iron and copper. This can be attributed to the charging of aluminium by positive charge when slid against steel. The resultant charge on the sliding surfaces was lower than that generated when epoxy was filled by iron and copper. In that condition, the adhesion of epoxy composites would be relatively weaker leading to the decrease of friction coefficient.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...

Education Policy Implementation: A Mechanism for Enhancing Primary Education Development in Zanzibar

Education is one of the fundamental rights of individuals; therefore, the government of a country needs to develop and strengthen educational policy and quality as well as to ensure that everyone has equal access to basic education. The improvement of access and quality of education in the world is becoming as an essential factor in development, whereas the basic education (primary school), is acknowledged as a foundation of the higher educational development for every country. To fulfill this goal, governments introduce several policies and procedures; however, it requires some reforms and participation from the politician, policymakers, and other stakeholders to re-examine educational policy so that it can lead to multiplication and betterment of the reforms. Educational reforms actually focus on accountability. A positive educational development and reform is very challenging and needs more effort and strategy on how to use and utilize the resources effectively as such it can achie...
