In this paper, an experiment is conducted to optimize the kerf width of wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) on Aluminum hybrid composite with Zinc coated brass wire using Taguchi method. Aluminum metal matrix composites (MMCs) reinforced with silicon carbide particulate (SiCp) find several applications due to their improved mechanical properties for a wide variety of aerospace and automo...

in this research, al-ni particle composite strips are formed by accumulative roll bonding (arb) process using al strips and ni powder. the rule of arb cycles and volume percentage (vol%) of ni powder on the microstructure, wear resistance and mechanical properties of the formed composites are investigated. according to the tensile test results, the yield stress and tensile strengths of the al -...

Fabrication and characterization of aluminum matrix composites containing different volume fractions of Ni3Al powder (5-40 Vol%) were investigated. Ni3Al powder was produced by mechanical alloying of elemental nickel and aluminum powder mixture. Al-Ni3Al composite parts were prepared using a powder metallurgy route involving two stages Al and Ni3Al powder mixtures were first compacted under 500...

Abstract Schnöckel's [(AlCp*) 4 ] and Jutzi's [SiCp*][B(C 6 F 5 ) (Cp*=C Me are landmarks in modern main‐group chemistry with diverse applications synthesis catalysis. Despite the isoelectronic relationship between AlCp* [SiCp*] + fragments, their mutual reactivity is hitherto unknown. Here, we report on reaction giving complex salts [Cp*Si(AlCp*) 3 ][WCA] ([WCA] − =[Al(OR [F{Al(OR } 2 ; R =C(C...

Abstract Precision machining of SiCp/Al composites is a challenge due to the existence reinforcement phase in this material. This work focuses on study textured tools’ cutting performance composite, as well comparison with non-textured tools. The results show that micro-pit tool can reduce force by 5–13% and length 9–39%. Compared tools, stability tools better. It found surface roughness smalle...
