DEFORMATION AND FRACTURE OF “ALUMINUM MATRIX - TITANIUM CARBIDE PARTICLES” COMPOSITE UNDER COMPRESSION

Mechanisms underlying the stress concentration and plastic strain localization during compression of a metal-matrix composite are investigated. Experimental specimens of composites with the aluminum matrix containing titanium carbide particles are fabricated using solid-state sintering. A model structure of the composi...

GRAIN-SCALE DEFORMATION MECHANISMS IN AN ADDITIVELY MANUFACTURED ALUMINIUM BRONZE OLIGOCRYSTAL

Oligocrystals provide a unique material for in-depth analysis of deformation mechanisms in metals and alloys. In this paper, the deformation mechanisms in a Cu-7.5 wt.% Al oligocrystal are investigated experimentally and numerically. An experimental sample containing several coarse columnar grains is produced by wire-f...
