Characterisation of mechanically alloyed feedstock for laser-powder bed fusion: titanium silicon carbide metal matrix composite
… additive manufacturing (AM) industry. Herein, a metal matrix composite (MMC) with a titanium (Ti6Al4V) matrix reinforced with silicon carbide (SiC) is characterised. The research investigated an innovative and novel feedstock production process involving elements of mechanical alloying, tailored …

Production of steel matrix composites by mechanical milling and spark plasma sintering
… leads to a decrease in toughness, therefore metal matrix composite (MMC) coatings and functionally graded materials have been proposed as a good solution for improving wear resistance. In this PhD thesis powder metallurgy has been applied for the production of particle reinforced HWTSs. …

Residual stress determination in advanced silicon carbide fibre reinforced aluminium matrix composites
Metal matrix composite (MMC) materials can provide very desirable material and component properties. MMCs can be divided into two groups; those that are reinforced by long continuous fibres (such as carbon, alumina, silicon, boron and carbide) or those reinforced by discontinuous fibres …

Electrical Breakdown of Thermal Spray Alumina Ceramic Applied to AlSiC Baseplates Used in Power Module Packaging
… lifetime operation. The substitution of an AlSiC metal matrix composite (MMC) heat spreader baseplate addresses the problem of CTE mismatch and will reduce the number of product failures related to cracking and delamination caused by this pronounced mismatch in the thermal expansion coefficient.. …

Design, Fabrication, and Characterization of Metals Reinforced with Two-Dimensional (2D) Materials
The development of metals that can overcome the strength-ductility-weight trade-off has been an ongoing challenge in engineering for many decades. A promising option for making such materials are Metal matrix composites (MMCs). MMCs contain dispersions of reinforcement in the form of fibers, …
