TL;DR: A filament reinforced composite comprising a plurality of fibers selected from the group consisting of graphite fibers, amorphous carbon fibers and pyrolytic graphite fiber bonded together in an aluminide matrix was proposed in this paper.
Abstract: A novel filament reinforced composite comprising a plurality of fibers selected from the group consisting of graphite fibers, amorphous carbon fibers and pyrolytic graphite fibers bonded together in an aluminide matrix, selected from the group consisting of nickel aluminide, cobalt aluminide and solutions and mixtures thereof, said composite having relatively high strengths at elevated temperatures.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the mechanical and physical properties of metal-matrix composite materials at room, cryogenic, and elevated temperatures, including longitudinal tensile, longitudinal compression, short-beam interlaminar shear, and pin bearing.
Abstract: The objective of this investigation was to determine some of the mechanical and physical properties of several advanced metal-matrix composite materials at room, cryogenic, and elevated temperatures. Composite materials tested were of various combinations of boron, aluminum, and stainless steel. Mechanical property tests included longitudinal and transverse tensile, longitudinal compression, short-beam interlaminar shear, and pin bearing. Tests were performed at room temperature and at 77, 200, and 450 K. Physical property tests consisted of thermal expansion and specific heat measurements made from 77 to 644 K.

TL;DR: In this article, Boron/Aluminum composites containing 50 v/o of 5.6 mil diameter B in two composite matrix materials (2024Al and 6061Al) consolidated from commercially available and continuous rolled bonded (CRB) tapes, were evaluated in tensile, fatigue, compression, shear, torsion and rupture tests.
Abstract: : Boron/Aluminum composites containing 50 v/o of 5.6 mil diameter B in two composite matrix materials (2024Al and 6061Al) consolidated from commercially available and continuous rolled bonded (CRB) tapes, were evaluated in tensile, fatigue, compression, shear, torsion and rupture tests. Failure modes were delineated and an extensive number of salient observations were made. The information contained in the report will advance the state-of-the art in metal matrix composite, enhance the technology base and aid in future evaluation of failure responses in aluminum composites.
