Abstract: This paper presents the theoretical predictions of the stress state at the inclusion-matrix interface in discontinuous metal matrix composites by the generalized inclusion method. In the author’s ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to find the optimum process variables for minimizing the amount of air entrapped within the shot sleeve during the slow shot phase of the injection process. ...

Abstract: During fabrication of fiber reinforced metal-matrix composites by hot pressing, fiber breakage due to particles impingement during consolidation of fiber/particle system is very common. In studying ...
