The development of high damping materials for noise reduction and attenuation of vibration on structural applications, such as automotive and aerospace industries, has been investigated. This experimental study is concerned with the damping capacity (tan delta) and dynamic Young’s modulus (|E*|) of Silicon carbide (SiC) reinforced aluminium (Al) matrix composite. AlSi-SiCp composite was produce...

Abstract In this study, filtration of aluminum alloy (Al) with different weight fractions SiC particles (SiCp) was investigated. Therefore, three filter materials 20 pores per inch (ppi) ceramic foam filters (CFF) were tested. A special three-chamber furan mold used for the casting trials to provide uniform filling and flow conditions process. Samples from sections gating system, as well filter...
