Effect of weight percentage of silicon carbide (SiC) reinforcement particles on mechanical behavior of aluminum metal matrix composite (Al MMC)

Effect of weight percentage of silicon carbide (SiC) reinforcement particles on mechanical behavior of aluminum metal matrix composite (Al MMC)

Silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites have been developed over past few decades, owing to their excellent properties like light weight, high elastic modulus and wear resistance. Thus, the silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites are expected to have man...
