“…Composites are defined as a multiphase system that consists of two different groups of materials, one is the matrix and another is reinforcement, which is chemically and physically distinct and separated by interfaces (Kumar et al , 2018; Butola et al , 2020d). Nowadays, aluminium metal matrix composites (AMMCs) are finding wide application in automobile, marine, aerospace, defense and even in the nuclear industry (Butola et al , 2020a; Tyagi et al , 2021).…”

Purpose This study aims to analyse the changes in mechanical and wear performance of aluminium alloy when yttrium oxide particles are incorporated. The microstructures are studied to analyse the change in the grain structures. Worn surfaces are observed via scanning electron microscope to study the wear mechanism in detail. Design/methodology/approach Stir casting is used to incorporate varying composition of yttrium particles, having an average particle size of 25 micrometer, in aluminium alloy 6063 matrix. Wear testing is carried out by DUCOM manufactured high temperature rotatory tribometer, and an indentation test is used for analysing the microhardness of the fabricated samples. Findings Microhardness of the material is increased with the increasing content of particulate addition. With the increasing content of reinforcement, more refined grains are produced. The load is transferred from the matrix to more rigid yttrium oxide particles. These factors contributed to escalated microhardness of the reinforced samples. Particulate addition enhanced the wear performance of the material; this might be attributed to increased microhardness and formation of an oxide layer. Originality/value Aluminium composites are finding wide applications in various industries, and there is always a requirement of material with enhanced tribological properties. Yttrium oxide particles exhibit improved mechanical properties, and their interaction with the aluminium matrix has not been studied much in the past. So, in this work, yttrium oxide incorporated aluminium matrix is studied.

“…The various types of surface composites under development are in-situ composites, micro composites, hybrid composites, and nano-composites [39][40][41][42]. Surface composites are used to improve surface properties like abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, hardness, fatigue life, formability, strength, and ductility [43]. Al, Mg, Steel, and Ti-based alloys are used for surface composites.…”

Friction stir processing (FSP), compared to other solid-state processing methods, is a one-step process that attains refinement and homogeneity in its Microstructure. The complex configuration of various kinds of welds in FSP and their 3-D (threedimensional) nature makes it tough to develop an overall system of ruling equations for theoretically analysing the functioning of the friction stir processed materials. The experimental trials are usually expensive and time-consuming. These hurdles can be overcome often by doing numerical analysis. The mechanical and microstructural characteristics of the Stir-Zone can be precisely supervised by enhancing the parameters of tool design, material properties, parameters of friction stir processing, and active heating and cooling. In this study, the significance of process parameters during FSP of Aluminium 5083 and the role of numerical analysis using ANSYS Workbench in the prediction of material behaviour have been discussed.

“…Different types of electrolytes and anodizing processes are used according to the place of use of aluminum and the alloy type of aluminum used. Aluminum alloys are used in many different fields such as automotive and aerospace due to their superior properties [2,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. In addition to many superior properties (such as high corrosion resistance, light weight), weak tribological and interfacial mechanical properties also create some disadvantages [14].…”

Anodic oxidation is used to improve the wear resistance and surface properties of aluminum alloys. In this study, the effect of two different anodic oxidation (hard anodizing and phosphoric coating) on the wear properties of 2017A aluminum alloy used as a model aircraft engine piston was investigated. In order to determine the effect of anodic oxidation, microhardness, friction coefficient, wear resistance, vibration, and worn surface images of the samples were evaluated. It was concluded that anodic oxidation significantly improved the hardness, friction coefficient, and wear resistance of the samples.
