The present work aims to develop metal matrix composite coating consisting.

Magnesium based metal matrix composites (MMCs) have been extensively studied as an attractive choice for automotive and aerospace applications due to their low density and superior specific properties including strength, stiffness and creep resistance. Xi et al [1] studied the Ti6Al-4V particulate (TAp) reinforced magnesium matrix composite which is fabricated by powder metallurgy route. The te...

A new derivative of mitomycin C (MMC), 7-N-(p-hydroxyphenyl)mitomycin C (M-83), had higher phage inactivation activity against phages phiX174 and PM2 than MMC, and also higher DNA strand scission activity against their single- and double-stranded DNAs. M-83, at one third to one sixth concentration of MMC, showed the same level of phage inactivation and DNA strand scission activities. The mechan...

Golak – Silesian University of Technical, Department of Management and Computer Science, Katowice, Poland The paper deals with computer simulation of gravity casting of the metal matrix composites reinforced with ceramics (MMC) into sand mold . The subject of our int erest is aluminum matrix c omposite (AlMMC) reinforced with c eramic particles i.e. silicon carbide SiC and glass...

Almraet--The consolidation of monotapes consisting of a layer of continuous aligned ceramic fibers embedded in a plasma sprayed metal or intermetallic matrix is becoming a preferred approach for the processing of high performance composite systems. We present a first model that enables prediction of the density (and its time evolution) of a monotape lay-up subjected to a hot isostatic or vaceum...

Successful metallurgical design of metal-matrix-composites relies on the knowledge of the intrinsic property profiles of the metal matrix and especially the compounds employed for particles, whiskers or fibres. In this work we compiled the key properties melting point, bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young׳s modulus, density, hardness, Poisson׳s ratio and structure/space group from the widespread ...

The Matrix Model of Computation (MMC) is a new Turing-equivalent and Quantumequivalent virtual machine used for the mathematical analysis of systems. The MMC allows uniform techniques to be applied to all kinds of systems and makes them amenable to formal mathematical manipulation. But the strength of the MMC lies in its applications. In this paper we use simple examples to illustrate three ver...

The role of engineering materials in the development of modern technology need not be emphasized. As the levels of technology have become more and more sophisticated, the materials used also have to be correspondingly made more efficient and effective. The increasing use of Aluminium alloy materials in structural and space applications generated considerable interest for the development of tech...

We study thermal crack shielding and thermal shock damage in a double-edge cracked metal-particlereinforced ceramic matrix composite subjected to sudden cooling at the cracked surfaces. Under severe thermal shocks, the crack will grow but will be bridged by the plastically stretched metal particles. A linear softening bridging law is used to describe the metal particle bridging behavior. An int...

New reduced graphene oxide-based silver nanoparticle-containing composite hydrogels were successfully prepared in situ through the simultaneous reduction of GO and noble metal precursors within the GO gel matrix. The as-formed hydrogels are composed of a network structure of cross-linked nanosheets. The reported method is based on the in situ co-reduction of GO and silver acetate within the hyd...
