Effect of SiC volume fraction and particle size on the fatigue resistance of a 2080 Al/SiCp composite
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of SiC volume fraction and particle size on the fatigue behavior of 2080 Al was investigated, and it was found that increasing volume fraction resulted in an increase in fatigue resistance.

Structure–property optimization of ultrafine-grained dual-phase steels using a microstructure-based strain hardening model
TL;DR: In this paper, a physically based grain size dependent strain hardening model has been developed for the ferrite matrix, involving specific laws for the accumulation and saturation of dislocations along grain boundaries and for their net back stress contribution.

Effect of clustering on the mechanical properties of SiC particulate-reinforced aluminum alloy 2024 metal matrix composites
TL;DR: In this paper, a load transfer model was proposed to estimate the strength and fracture toughness of the Al 2024-SiC metal matrix composite (MMC) powders produced by centrifugal atomization to investigate the effect of clustering on their mechanical properties.

Wear and mechanical properties of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy surface hybrid composites [(SiC + Gr) and (SiC + Al2O3)] fabricated by friction stir processing

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of tool rotational speed on wear and mechanical properties of aluminum alloy based surface hybrid composites fabricated via friction stir processing (FSP) was studied. But, it was not shown that the microhardness decreases when increasing the rotational speeds and showed a higher micro-hardness value in Al-SiC/Al2O3 surface hybrid composite due to presence and pining effect of hard SiC and Al 2O3 particles.
