Microstructurally inhomogeneous composites: Is a homogeneous reinforcement distribution optimal?
L.J. Huang,L. Geng,H-X. Peng +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a range of uniquely multi-scale hierarchical structures have been successfully designed and fabricated by tailoring reinforcement distribution for discontinuous metal matrix composites in order to obtain superior performance.

Particle reinforcement of ductile matrices against plastic flow and creep
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of non-deforming particles in reinforcing ductile matrix materials against plastic flow and creep is investigated within the framework of continuum plasticity theory using cell models to implement most of the calculations.

An analysis of the effects of matrix void growth on deformation and ductility in metal-ceramic composites
TL;DR: In this article, the deformation and failure of metal-matrix composites, by the nucleation and growth of voids within the ductile matrix, are studied numerically and experimentally.

Strength of metals and alloys
TL;DR: The paper as discussed by the authors presents the papers given at a conference on the mechanical properties of metals and alloys, including hardening, anisotropy and texture, phase transformations, creep resistance, plasticity, deformations, microstructure, fracture properties, fatigue, wear resistance, temperature effects, stress analysis, and recrystallization.

Dislocation generation due to differences between the coefficients of thermal expansion
R.J. Arsenault,N. Shi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple model based on prismatic punching was developed to account for the relative dislocation density due to the differential thermal contraction, and an in situ transmission electron microscopy investigation was undertaken of dislocation generation at the inclusions due to thermal contraction.

On the strength of discontinuous silicon carbide reinforced aluminum composites
V.C. Nardone,K.M. Prewo +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a modified shear lag theory was used to rationalize why the proportional limit of the composite is similar to that of the matrix and why the strength of the SiCw/6061Al is anisotropic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inelastic Behavior of Solids
TL;DR: In the case of the salmon, the danger of prejudicing future population studies by the artificial transfer of fish from one area to another was highlighted by the authors of the meeting as well as guidelines to future work as mentioned in this paper.
