“…Earlier many researchers have used stir casting to fabricate composites materials reinforced with various ceramic particle reinforcements, and found that fabricated composites have enhanced mechanical and wear performance [10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. Anshul et al [17] reviewed the mechanical properties of variety of alloys like Mg-4Y-3Nd (WE43), Mg-ZrSiO4-N 2 O 3 , Al-Si hypoeutectic A356 alloy, 5210 steel (WC-12% CO coated) under the influence of friction stir processing.…”

Among several methods to fabricate Aluminium metal matrix composites, stir-casting technique is used for large-scale production due to its being less expensive. This research is concerned with the fabrication of Aluminium composites with SiC and Jute Ash Particles, for sake of producing a cost-effective composite with enhanced properties. Wear behaviour was studied using pin on disc tribometer and it was found that wear resistance increases with-addition of reinforcement particles. Fabricated composite samples showed almost 4 times better wear resistance compared to base material. Matrix metal reinforced with SiC showed the best wear resistance of all fabricated samples. Coefficient of friction significantly decreased with the presence of reinforcement due to formation of mechanical mixed layer. Tensile Strength was escalated with the introduction of reinforcement as load is transferred to strongly bonded reinforcement particles. Microhardness was enhanced with the introduction of reinforcement and Sample 2 with SiC as reinforcement showed the best microhardness. Microstructure and fractography of the base metal and fabricated composites was analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).

“…Extracting the deformation and measuring the surface undulation of the finished workpiece after turning were used [14,15]. After the simulation, due to the relative displacement of the workpiece and the tool, the surface of the workpiece has undulations created by the heights of the elements after re-meshing.…”

Currently, there are advanced metal cutting processing methods such as electric discharge cutting, wire cutting, water jet cutting, but the metal cutting processing method is still very popular in the industry with its own advantages. The turning machining method is the same, in addition to the advantages, this method also has disadvantages. One of the disadvantages not achieving roughness as high as that of the finishing methods is the surface quality of the workpiece. One of the causes is the vibration of the workpiece and the tool during the machining process. This paper focuses on simulating the tool stiffness to the surface quality of the workpiece. The study has determined that the effect of the tool stiffness on the surface roughness is as a nonlinear function.

“…Researchers have developed composites based on the cost, availability, and properties of the reinforcement particles. The ceramic reinforcements such as silica (SiO 2 ), 17 titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), 18 alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), 19 titanium carbide (TiC), 20 boron carbide (B 4 C), 21 graphite (Gr), 22 carbon nanotube (CNT), 23 silicon carbide (SiCp), 24 aluminium nitride (AlN), 25 silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ), 26 titanium nitride (TiN), 27 boron nitride (BN), 28 titanium diboride (TiB 2 ), 29 tungsten trioxide (WO 3 ), 30 and tungsten carbide (WC) 31 are few particulates studied by various researchers, but silicon carbide was mostly used as primary reinforcement for fabrication of aluminium nanocomposites. Salehi et al 17 fabricated aluminium reinforced SiO 2 nanocomposites by varying the weight percentage of reinforcement through ultrasonic assisted stir casting technique.…”

“…The CNT reinforced nanocomposites have good corrosion resistance and wear resistance due to its higher hardness and melting point. Poovazhagan et al 24 fabricated carbon nanotubes (CNT) reinforced aluminium nanocomposites through spark plasma sintering and followed by hot rolling process. Experimental results revealed that nanocomposites enhanced mechanical properties and resulted in better machinability.…”

Global requirement for minimum cost, high efficiency, and good grade materials has made a diversion in research from base alloys to composite materials, since the last five decades. In the case of metal matrix composites, aluminium metal matrix composites have been certified and steadily advanced due to properties such as high strength, low density, and high wear resistance. They are widely used in automobile industry, aircraft industry, structural applications, and many other defence systems. Researchers have observed that the addition of nano-size SiC NP reinforcements to aluminiumbased matrix yields superior properties and good bonding characteristics between matrix and reinforcements of nanocomposites. Along with silicon carbide particulate primary nano-reinforcements, researchers studied the properties of aluminium metal matrix nanocomposites with the addition of secondary reinforcements. These hybrid nanocomposites exhibited improved wear resistance. This article reviews the fabrication methods, mechanical properties, and tribological properties of aluminium-based hybrid metal matrix nanocomposites.
