Abstract

ABSTRACTAluminium alloys are employed in advanced applications due to their desirable combination of low density, high strength, durability, availability, and cost vs. competing materials. The characteristics described above can be increased further by employing aluminium matrix composite materials reinforced with harder particles. The hybrid aluminium alloy (Al7075) composite was made in an electric resistance furnace using the sand mould process and reinforced with alumina (Al2O3) and boron carbide (B4C) particles. The purpose of this research to investigate the mechanical characteristics of Al7075-Al2O3-B4C hybrid composites with stable Al2O3 weight percentages (4%) and varied B4C weight percentages (2–6%). Mechanical characteristics includes tensile and compressive strength, hardness, and microstructure analysis were evaluated on the pure and cast specimens. In this study, which followed the ASTM standard, the mechanical characteristics of Al7075 alloy hybrid composites were examined experimentally and validated using FEA. The results showed that when hard ceramic particles (Al2O3/B4C) were added to matrix alloy (Al7075), mechanical characteristics such as compressive strength and hardness improved while tensile strength was reduced. The static structural tensile test was successfully simulated in ANSYS. It was observed that both FEA results and analytical results were correlated.KEYWORDS: Al7075Al2O3, B4CmicrostructureMechanical behaviourFEM Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementThe data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author, upon reasonable request.Additional informationNotes on contributorsJ KumaraswamyDr. Kumaraswamy J is currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Mechanical Engineering at R.

颗粒对Al-7075合金复合材料显微组织、力学性能和断裂行为的影响
与竞争材料相比,铝合金具有低密度、高强度、耐用性、可用性和成本等优点,因此在先进应用中得到广泛应用。通过采用用更硬的颗粒增强的铝基复合材料,可以进一步增加上述特性。采用砂模法在电阻炉中制备了混杂铝合金(Al7075)复合材料,并用氧化铝(Al2O3)和碳化硼(B4C)颗粒进行增强。研究了Al2O3质量百分比稳定(4%)和B4C质量百分比变化(2-6%)的Al7075-Al2O3-B4C混杂复合材料的力学特性。力学特性包括抗拉和抗压强度、硬度和显微组织分析对纯和铸造试样进行了评估。本研究遵循ASTM标准,对Al7075合金混杂复合材料的力学特性进行了实验研究,并利用有限元分析对其进行了验证。结果表明:在基体合金(Al7075)中加入硬质陶瓷颗粒(Al2O3/B4C),可提高合金的抗压强度和硬度,降低抗拉强度;在ANSYS中成功地模拟了结构的静力拉伸试验。结果表明,有限元分析结果与分析结果具有一定的相关性。关键词:Al7075Al2O3, b4c,显微结构,力学行为,有限元披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。数据可用性声明支持本研究结果的数据可在合理要求下从通讯作者处获得。作者简介:j KumaraswamyDr。Kumaraswamy J目前在班加罗尔农村Doddaballapur的R.
