Effect of reinforcement-particle-orientation anisotropy on the tensile and fatigue behavior of metal-matrix composites

Abstract: The effect of extrusion-induced particle-orientation anisotropy on the mechanical behavior of metal-matrix composites (MMCs) was examined. In this study, we have shown that this anisotropy has a significant influence on the tensile and fatigue behavior SiC particle-reinforced Al alloy composites. The preferred orientation of SiC particles was observed parallel to the extrusion axis, with the extent of orientation being highest for the lowest-volume-fraction composites. The composites exhibited higher Young's m… Show more

“…2c) samples to have a higher or comparable remanence with the un-extruded samples; extrusion processes are known to induce anisotropy due alignment of particles in the extrusion direction. 8,9 This trend is observed for the 5 and 20 vol.% extrusions. It is nevertheless unclear why the remanence of the 10 vol.% extruded sample is reduced compared to the un-extruded sample.…”

“…Furthermore, MMCs exhibit improved fatigue resistance over monolithic alloys. This fatigue resistance depends on a variety of factors, such as reinforcement particle volume fraction, particle size, matrix and interfacial microstructure, processinginduced inclusions or defects, and testing environment [2][3][4][5][6][7][8].…”
