AbstractIn this paper, the effective properties of particle-reinforced composites with a weakened interphase are investigated. The particle and interphase are regarded as an equivalent-inclusion, and the interphase zone around the particle is modeled as a linear elastic spring layer. A modified micro-mechanics model is proposed to obtain the effective elastic modulus. Moreover, a statistical debonding criterion is proposed to characterize the varying probability of the evolution of interphase debonding. Numerical examples are considered to illustrate the effect of imperfect interphases on the effective properties of particle-reinforced composites. It is found that the effective elastic properties obtained in the present work are in a good agreement with the existing data from the literatures.

In the present study, a Fe-Cr-C hypereutectic alloy was prepared from industry-grade materials and subjected to modification and fluctuation, through which new types of particle reinforced composites, hypereutectic in-situ composite, was generated. The structures of the composite modified or not with the range of fluctuation addition from 0% to 2.8wt.%, were investigated. The primary carbides were refined with the addition of modifying agents and fluctuations. Increasing the amount of fluctuation resulted in finer primary carbides. At 1380oC, with the addition of modifying agents and 2.8wt.% fluctuation addition, the structure was well modified.
