matrix composites (MMCs) and/or metal-matrix nanocomposites (MMNCs) synthesized …

Particle pushing and/or engulfment by the moving solidification front (SF) is important for the
uniform distribution of reinforcement particles in metal-matrix composites (MMCs) …

A multiphase model for the alloy solidification of metal-matrix particulate composites with
convection is developed. Macroscopic transport equations are written for each phase, with …

The simplicity, economy and flexibility of solidification processes make them attractive
methods for the production of particle-reinforced metal-matrix composites. At present …

The present work is aimed at studying the effect of solidification rate on reinforcement

The behaviour of titanium diboride particles in molten aluminium was investigated by
conducting casting experiments at different cooling rates and particle addition levels, starting …

The solidification behavior of ceramic particle-reinforced metal-matrix composites (MMCs) is
different from that of the bare matrix, not only because of the presence of the ceramic …

High modulus aluminum materials are being increasingly sought after by designers for many
aerospace and automotive applications, both from the point of view of the ability to save …

Interactions between the solidification front and the remaining suspended particles take
place during solidification of particles reinforced composites. The particles are either …
