Abstract Aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) nanoparticles are capable of improving the material characteristics if reinforced to soft and low strength material. The major limitation in utilization Al alloy 6061 medium heavy stress applications such as automobile, defense, transportations, aerospace is hardness strength. In order overcome deficiency Al6061, nano-Al Al6061 matrix nanocomposite (AMNC) was...

Material properties affect the surface finishing in ultra-precision diamond cutting (UPDC), especially for aluminum alloy 6061 (Al6061) which cutting-induced temperature rise generates different types of precipitates on machined surface. The generation not only changes material but also induces imperfections generated surface, therefore increasing roughness Al6061 UPDC. To investigate precipita...

In this study, to fabricate neutron shielding material, boron carbide (B4C)-reinforced aluminum (Al) alloy composites were successfully fabricated by stir casting followed a hot rolling process. Microstructural analysis of B4C/Al6061 with different volume fractions (5, 10, 20, 25, and 30%) revealed that the had ratios similar target B4C. Furthermore, B4C reinforcements uniformly dispersed in Al...

Semisolid processing is one of the modern routes in sound and near net shape parts production.  Preparation of semisolid slurry using a cooling slope is increasingly becoming popular, primarily because of its simplicity in design and ease of control of the process. In this research, the microstructures of Al6061 semisolid alloy cast via a miniature cooling slope were investigated. The propertie...

Abstract Joining the aluminium 6061-T6 alloy (Al6061-T6) using Electron Beam Welding (EBW) wais important, especially in aerospace. Although EBW method has been used for different materials literature, there are a limited number of studies Al6061-T6 alloy.
