The performance characteristics of metal matrix composites (MMCs) and the need to study their fretting fatigue wear during service are discussed. Four main elements MMCs (aluminum, copper, titanium, iron, magnesium, nickel, etc.) These factors influencing fatigue, mechanism research, life prediction, development process protection methods, respectively. Factors such as internal crack nucleation...

High-entropy alloy particles (HEAPs) can markedly enhance the mechanical properties of metal matrix composites (MMCs). In this study, AA5083/Al0.5CoCrFeNi HEAPs MMCs with different contents (0, 1, and 3 wt%) were prepared via a stir-casting, then these sheets hot rolled (573 K) cryorolled (77 K), respectively. The measured by tensile testing microhardness test. Additionally, their microstructur...

High Speed Steels (HSS) produced by electro-slag remelting call be viewed as particle reinforced Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) consisting of alternating layers of high and low inch]sion volume fraction. These phase arrangements require specific models to bc used in analytical and numerical studies of the elastoplast,ic response of HSS. In the present study, a hierarchical micro-mesomacro appro...

Abstract Nowadays, as an emerging technology, additive manufacturing (AM) has received numerous attentions from researchers around the world. The method comprises layer-by-layer of products according to 3D CAD models objects. Among other things, AM is capable producing metal matrix composites (MMCs). Hence, plenty works in literature are dedicated developing different types MMCs through process...

The present paper aims to investigate the solidification behavior and the forgeability of Aluminum alloy (LM6)-SiCp composites at different section of three-stepped composite castings. The temperature of the cast composites during solidification has measured by putting K-type thermocouples at the center of the each step/section, from which the solidification curves were constructed. The forgeab...

In this preliminary study, a set of self-lubricating copper-tungsten disulfide (Cu-WS2) composites are prepared via powder metallurgy route to analyze the effects solid lubricant concentration on their tribological, electrical and wettability properties. An extensive characterization is performed preliminarily assess potential application these metal matrix (MMCs) in sliding contacts working un...

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...

Aluminum matrix composites (AMCs), reinforced with ceramic particulates, have significant applications in the field of aerospace, marine, automobiles, sports and recreation. Al-TiC particulate composite has better potential for high-temperature applications. The corrosion behaviour of Al 6061-TiC particulate composites prepared by stir casting route, has been explored in chloride medium using e...

Herein, it is concerned with the use of profilometry-based indentation plastometry (PIP) to obtain mechanical property information for particulate metal matrix composites (MMCs). This type test, together conventional uniaxial testing, has been applied four different MMCs (produced various contents and processing conditions). It shown that reliable stress–strain curves can be obtained using PIP,...

Magnesium is among the lightest structural metals available, with capacity to replace traditional alloys in mass-saving applications while still providing increased stiffness and strength. The inclusion of reinforcing components into metallic matrix has a substantial impact on stiffness, specific strength, wear behaviour, damping creep properties when compared typical engineering materials.
