The role of reinforcing phase contiguity in high volume fraction particulate composites is investigated using model composites of pure aluminium reinforced with α-Al2O3 particles. To produce the composites, alumina particle (5µm) preforms were either loose ...
A new technique is proposed for the direct measurement of capillary forces in systems of relevance to the infiltration processing of metal matrix composites. Capable of handling melt temperatures up to 1500 K and infiltration pressures up to 20 MPa, the te ...
We develop ceramic structures using ceramic-precursor polymers. The possibility to modify easily the physical properties of the final ceramic structures just by doping the precursor with nanoparticles, makes them interesting for new MEMS and NEMS developme ...
Aluminum matrix composites reinforced with mixtures of diamond and SiC particles of equal size were produced by gas pressure assisted liquid metal infiltration. Replacing SiC gradually by diamond particles results in a steady increase of thermal conductivi ...
The threshold pressure P-0 for infiltration of Al-12 wt.% Si alloy into compacts of mixtures of alumina and silicon carbide particles having largely different size is investigated. The results are in line with those recently derived from infiltrations of A ...
Ceramic composites reinforced with nanoscale materials such as nanotubes are widely expected to have superior mechanical properties compared with more conventional composite materials. However, new work shows that the toughness of these nanocomposites can ...
Metal matrix composites are known for their excellent specific mechanical properties. Nevertheless, because of the thermal expansion mismatch between the matrix and the reinforcements, thermal stresses arise at the interfaces of such materials. In order to ...
Force and pressure sensors based on the piezoresistive properties of thickfilm resistors are widely used due to their reliability, simplicity and lowcost. Recently, the introduction of low-temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) substrates has allowed further i ...
After more than a quarter of a century of active research, metal matrix composites (MMCs), and more particularly aluminum matrix composites (AMCs), are beginning to make a significant contribution to aerospace, automotive, and electronic industrial practic ...
All three classes of fibre reinforced composite materials (polymer, metal and ceramic matrix) may be produced by flow of liquid matrix into the open spaces left within pores of a fibre preform. Even though several specific issues arise from the nature of e ...
