Abstract:Demands of today’s automotive industry are increasing; there is a constant tendency of weight reduction and higher reliability of constructions. Pistons and piston liners for vehicles are mostly manufactured from aluminum-silicon alloys. With different manufacturing methods and/or the addition of some chemical elements, base alloy properties can be modified. Methods for hypereutectic aluminum alloys and composites manufacturing and their influence on material properties will be given in this paper. The influen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
