“…64). Previous studies have shown that the heat generation can cause brake fade [103,104], increased wear of the rubbing surfaces [105], and other problems such as boiling of the brake fluid [106] and disc cracking [107]. Therefore, sufficient and uniform cooling of the brake disc is desirable to improve braking performance and safety.…”

“…Many researchers have shown the applicability of ceramic whiskers/fibres/ particles [1,2] reinforced AMCs as a potential candidate for automotive engines, pistons, bearing materials and cylinder liners. Several techniques (stir casting [3,4], die casting [5], rheo casting [6], spray forming [7,8], etc.)…”

The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of SiC reinforcement along with immiscible element addition in spray formed Al-Si base alloy. The investigation is done for four different compositions, i.e., Al-Si base alloy, Al-Si/SiC, Al-Si-5Sn/SiC and Al-Si-10Sn/SiC composite. The dry sliding wear properties of base alloy and composites were investigated against EN 31 steel at five different normal loads (14.7, 24.5, 34.3, 44.1 and 53.9 N). The tests were carried out in dry sliding conditions with a sliding speed of 1.6 ms -1 over pin-on-disc tribometer. Each composition is tested at four different temperatures 50, 75, 100 and 150°C. To determine the wear mechanism, the worn surfaces of the samples were examined using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The composites emerge to be better wear resistant material than base alloy especially at higher loads. The optimum wear reduction was obtained in Al-Si-10Sn/SiC composite at all the different normal loads and temperatures.

“…Due to this aluminium matrix composites (AMCs) are progressively replacing aluminium alloys in many applications where components slide against each other. The sliding action results in wear of components which is influenced by several factors such as the speed, the running hour and the load acting on the component [1][2][3]. It is essential to calculate the effect of those factors on the wear rate of composites.…”

In the present study AA6061 aluminium alloy composites containing 0, 4, 8 and 12 wt.% of fly ash particles have been fabricated by the compocasting process. The dry sliding wear behaviour of unreinforced alloy and composites are studied using pin-on-disc machine. The dry sliding wear test was conducted under a load of 4.9, 9.8, 14.7, 19.6, and 24.5 N, sliding velocity of 1.57 m s −1 , sliding distance of 4000 m and a track radius of 100 mm at an ambient temperature respectively for all the tests. Results indicate that the dry sliding wear resistance of Al-fly ash composite increases with an increase of fly ash content. The load bearing capacity of the AA6061 alloy during dry sliding wear has increased in the presence of fly ash particles. Composites exhibit better wear resistance compared to unreinforced alloy up to a load of 24.5 N. Study of the wear surfaces and debris of both alloy and composites using the scanning electron microscope suggests that at high loads (> 4.9 N), where fly ash particles act as load bearing constituents, the wear resistance of AA6061 Al alloy reinforced with a size range (2-3 µm) fly ash particles.
