In this study, cold spray technique was used as a solid-state additive manufacturing route to deposit a 5 mm thick SiC /Al metal matrix composite. Microstructure and tensile properties were analyzed via different heat treatment conditions (200 oC, 300 oC, 400 oC and 500 oC). Microstructure evolutions were characterized via scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy-disperse X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), whilst mechanical properties were investigated via micro-tensile and hardness tests. It was established that the as-sprayed deposit fractured in a brittle manner and had appreciable tensile strength (85 MPa) mainly associated with intensive work hardening effect. At heat treatment conditions, tensile strength (104 MPa) and plasticity (1.5 %-5.2 %) were enhanced due to coarsening of pure Al splat through recrystallization-recovery-grain growth mechanisms. The splat size which controls strength changes from 30.9 ± 2.6 μm to 40.9 ± 4.8 μm, an appreciation of 32 % as heat treatment temperature increased. The main fracture mode at the heat treatment state was a ductile fracture. For plastically deformed splats, the flattening ratios (FR) revealed the top (1.5), middle (1.9) and near interfacial regions (2.2) due to peening effect of SiC particles. The Young moduli were in agreement with the experimental results.

“…Metal matrix composites (MMCs) compared with pure metals and alloys, have superior properties such as high wear resistance [17], high corrosion resistance [18], high tensile strength [19] and good bending strength [20]. Several reports have fabricated cold sprayed composites with thickness within the range of 70-500 µm [2,21].…”

“…Taguchi method is used to decrease the number of experiments and decides the optimum value by using L9 orthogonal vector for wear testing condition variables [25], the addition of graphite flakes to the matrix erodes the matrix material and leads to the formation of graphite holes which intern, move along with counterpart movement during wear [26], wear is a function of load, temperature, and percentage weight of reinforcement [27], SiC and ZiSiO4. Combination of reinforcements contributes to decreasing in wear and can be applied to the marine industry and marine environment [28]. During initial condition of lesser speed of the pin, wear is abrasive and then turned to be delaminating at higher speeds [29], thick and stable tribo layers are formed on the graphite aluminum composite and its hardness increases for higher loads and speed [10].…”

Dual reinforcement in composite materials leads to the betterment of properties. In the present research, zircon is added from a range of 0 wt. % to 12 wt. % in the steps of 3 wt. % by maintaining constant 3 wt. % graphite powder in addition to the aluminum alloy (LM13) matrix. Reinforcements are preheated at 250°C to remove moisture content and are dispersed in the molten aluminum alloy (LM13) by stir casting process where copper chills are kept at one end of the mold to enable unidirectional solidification. Wear properties are evaluated using pin on disc experiment. Design of the experiment (DOE) is done using Taguchi's (L25) orthogonal array to assess the effect of (a) applied load (b) sliding speed (c) track radius/sliding distance (d) zircon content on wear loss/volume loss, coefficient of friction (COF)and wear rate. It is observed that wear rate and wear loss are proportional to the applied load, sliding speed and track radius COF is inversely proportional to the same. Wear rate decreases with the addition of zircon up to 9 wt. % and then increases at 12 wt. %. Statistical analysis is done using Minitab software where SN ratio, probability, ANOVA, and a regression model are analyzed. Obtained experimental wear properties are validated using artificial neural networks (ANN) by training the neurons where good agreement is obtained (R 2 = 0.98). Present research encapsulates the effect of different wear parameters like applied load, sliding speed, and sliding distance on the wear rate of LM13/zircon/C (hybrid metal matrix composites), and experimental wear results are correlated with artificial neural network (ANN) by training the algorithm.

“…A recent investigation shows that the combination of hard reinforcement material in aluminum and magnesium alloys increased their mechanical, tribological, and thermal properties. [1][2][3][4][5] Several research findings [6][7][8][9] reveal that the reinforced particles like TiC, Al 2 O 3 , SiC, TiB 2 , etc. provide good compressive strength to the matrix material.…”

The aluminum and magnesium alloys are mostly used in the development of internal combustion engines. In the present investigation, an aluminum based composite material has been developed by utilizing the hybrid casting technique with the composition of Al + 7.5 wt.% Si3N4 + 5 wt.% MgO. Further, a comparative numerical analysis has been performed on the four-cylinder diesel internal combustion engine with the help of finite element analysis code Abaqus. The numerical investigation was performed and compared for the three materials Al + 7.5 wt.% Si3N4 + 5 wt.% MgO (Material 1), WE43A magnesium alloy (Material 2), and Al356 aluminum alloy (Material 3) based on temperature distribution and heat flux. The results revealed that the developed composite material (Material 1) shows a good temperature at the core of the four-cylinder diesel engine which supports the combustion process. Further, it shows the minimum temperature at the cylinder wall in both directions (along the length and width) which supports the cooling system. Further, Material 1 shows the lowest heat flux near the cylinder wall which is a more desirable characteristic for the internal combustion engine. Hence the developed material can replace Material 1 and Material 2 which are the alloys of aluminum and magnesium alloys.
