Investigation of mechanical and machinability properties of SiC particle reinforced Al-MMC

TLDR
In this paper, the effect of machining parameters, e.g., cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on tool wear and surface roughness was studied, and it was observed that increase of reinforcement element addition produced better mechanical properties such as impact toughness and hardness, but tensile strength showed different trend.
