TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the recent developments in the fabrication techniques and properties characterization of Al, Mg, Ti, Cu, Fe/steel and Ni matrix composites containing hybrid reinforcements is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the WAAM AZ80M were tested and studied, and the results showed that the material was mainly composed of α-Mg, β-mg17Al12 and Al2Y phases and had obvious inhomogeneous characteristics along the deposition direction.

TL;DR: The results revealed that the nanocomposites showed a slightly smaller grain size compared with the matrix and uniform distribution that CNTs could achieve at proper content, and could weaken basal plane texture, but the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the composites were enhanced.

TL;DR: In this article, the formability, thermal cycles, microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of the wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) Alloy Alloy Alloy were investigated, and the results showed that there was significant difference in the temperature variation and the geometries between the original several layers and the subsequent deposited layers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the aging behavior and microstructure evolution of extruded Mg-Al-Zn-Y alloys were investigated in aspects of yttrium (Y) content (0.2-0.8 lwt), holding time ( 0.5-156 h), and initial states (as-extruded, solution treated).
