This stimulates curiosity study aluminum metal matrix composite reinforced waste glass improve its mechanical physical The specimens were prepared using stir-casting...

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...

Typically many grains are averaged to determine strains using X-ray diffraction. In a composite material, however, as the microstructure approaches the fiber diameter, approximations based on a few grains may be misleading. Polychromatic microbeam X-ray diffraction on beamline 7.3.3 at the Advanced Light Source was used to observe relative strain and orientation within hundreds of grains of a m...

The present research focuses on the effects of aluminum (Al) and silicon carbide (SiC) hybridization mechanical morphological properties Al SiC particles reinforced hybrid epoxy composites. Composites were prepared by hand lay-up technique at five levels reinforcement loading (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 wt%). Aluminum powder utilized as a ratio (1:1) during composite preparation. Microstructural analys...

Continuous carbon fiber reinforced aluminum matrix composite materials (Cf/Al) contains manufacturing abnormalities such as shrinkage void, shrinkage porosity and delamination. Fundamental characteristics of the defects in Cf/Al were investigated through the correlation of radiographic image and microstructure of the composites. Hole-style penetrameter was designed and manufactured to help quan...

Fast Reacting Nano-Composite Energetic Materials: Synthesis and Combustion Characterization Report Title Energetic composites are mixtures of solid fuel and oxidizer particles that when combined offer higher calorific output than monomolecular explosives. The composites traditionally deliver energy as diffusion limited reactions and thus their power available from reaction is much smaller than ...
