Metal matrix composites: structure and technologies

Advanced investigations about high performance materials and their micro-chemical, mechanical and machining properties

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The research of ever new materials for high
performance applications about aerospace,
aeronautical and automotive fields has found in
material matrix composites the materials having very
high potential, for their capacity of combining
resistance, lightness and versatility. The most
important aspects for these materials usually regard
production technology and machining. Therefore the
present book, after dealing a general picture,
provides for this two themes. First the study about a
titanium matrix composite, the Ti6Al4V/SiCf,
promising for aeronautical applications as turbine
components and structural high stressed parts, is
considered: by micro-chemical and mechanical advanced
investigations, the high properties of the composite
are described. The second part extends the research
about the aluminium matrix composites and their
workability by tool machines, investigating the
better conditions to reduce the cutting forces by
variation of the cutting parameters, workpiece
temperature included. The dealt topics should be
useful to discover completely the metal matrix
composite importance, but also to verify the benefits
about the advanced investigation methodologies used
in the work.
