Hybrid Metal Matrix Composites (HMMCs) have very light weight, high strength, and show better resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and wear. Impact resistance is an especially important property of these HMMCs which is ...

The study deals with elastoplastic stress analysis of a hollow disk made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) subjected to an internal pressure. The material properties of disc are assumed to vary radially according to ...

Co-continuous alumina-aluminum composite materials with excellent physical and mechanical properties offer great potentials for lightweight, wear resistant, and high-temperature applications. They combine metallic properties ...

The main advantage of using sandwich structures is their high strength, high energy absorbing capacity and high bending stiffness to weight ratio. Therefore, they are unique for the applications where the light-weight ...

In this study an experimental investigation is performed on the impact response of non-crimp fabric composite plates at room temperature. Chopped strand mat combi is used as reinforcing material and two kinds of matrix; ...

In this study, mechanical characterization of E-Glass fiber reinforced composite materials that are manufactured via Vacuum Infusion (VI) (a.k.a Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM)) is investigated. The mechanical ...

Co-continuous alumina–aluminium composite materials with excellent physical and mechanical properties offer great potentials for lightweight, wear-resistant and high-temperature applications. They combine metallic properties ...

In this study, the elastic stress analysis of annular discs made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) subjected to both uniform pressures on the inner surface and a linearly decreasing temperature distribution has been ...
