The target of this study is to develop routes for processing Al–SiCp (SiC particulate) sheets with improved microstructures; namely, the uniform distribution SiCp and minimized porosity throughout whole material, thereby improving its mechanical properties. composites reinforced 5, 10, 15 vol.% SiC having three average sizes 29, 17, 8.5 µm were produced using a semi-automated stir-casting machi...

AZ91D and 8.5vol.% SiCp/AZ91D magnesium matrix composites were fabricated by a semi-solid extruded processing method, treated with solution aging heat treatment. The effects of SiCp on the microstructures alloy during recrystallization studied observing analyzing microstructure evolution extrusions treatments. results show that addition inhibits dynamic extrusion only 26% volume fraction recrys...

SiCp/Al composites are difficult-to-cut materials. In recent years, electrical arc discharge machining has been developed to improve the machinability of these However, there is a big challenge build satisfactory heat transfer model in machining. This not only because material property difference between reinforcement and matrix but also micro-dimension SiC reinforcements. paper established new...

Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) are present engineering materials which have more advantages when compare to conventional materials. Magnesium based MMCs among the MMCs have become an important research subject because of their low density and high strength/weight ratio in recent years. The aim of this study is to find out the most influence factors of the electro-discharge machining (EDM) proce...

Experimental analysis of conventional turning (CT) and ultrasonically assisted (UAT) two varieties particulate SiC infused aluminium metal matrix composite (217XG, 225XE) is carried out. The results indicate the amount tangential cutting force reduction in UAT compared to CT increased at lower speed higher depth-of-cut. using carbide tools reduced average forces by 60.5%, 29.5% for 217XG 225XE,...

The high cost of fabrication hindered the actual application of metal matrix composite (MMC) despite of their high stiffness, strength, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, non-reactivity with chemicals and so many other tailored quality which are never obtained in alloy of metals. In this study, a modest attempt has been made to find out the process parameters at which best mechanical proper...
