Composite materials are important engineering materials due to their outstanding mechanical properties. Composites are materials in which the desirable properties of separate materials are combined by mechanically binding them together. Each of the components retains its structure and characteristic, but the composite generally possesses better properties. Composite materials offer superior properties to conventional alloys for various applications as they have high stiffness, strength and wear resistance. The development of these materials started with the production of continuous-fiber-reinforced composites. The high cost and difficulty of processing these composites restricted their application and led to the development of discontinuously reinforced composites. The aim involved in designing metal matrix composite materials is to combine the desirable attributes of metals and ceramics. The addition of high strength, high modulus refractory particles to a ductile metal matrix produce a material whose mechanical properties are intermediate between the matrix alloy and the ceramic reinforcement. Metal Matrix Composites with Aluminum as metal matrix is the burning area for research now a days.

Compressor is a part of turbocharger approaches that utilize the exhaust gas of an automobile to drive the compression device. The purpose of turbocharging is to increase the intake pressure and the amount of air into the combustion chamber to improve the efficiency of the engine. Compressor impeller determines the service life of the turbocharger. This paper proposes the new methodology of producing the compressor impeller using Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) material by investment casting. In general, this study presents the tasks pertaining to metal matrix composites and their interactions in designing of compressor impeller. This study presents the use of genetic algorithm (GA) and computer programs for designing a new compressor and determined the wax pattern dimensions based on three-dimensional finite-element simulations as a preliminary study by using investment casting method. The model of thermal and mechanical analysis was developed by ANSYS. As the results, the simulation model was generated and it could be used for improving the design of turbine-compressor assembly through the bottom geometry changes of the compressor.

This review examines various studies on reducing tensile stresses generated in a polymer matrix composite without increasing the mass or dimension of the material. The sources of residual stresses and their impacts on the developed composite were identified, and the different techniques used in limiting residual stresses were also discussed. Furthermore, the review elaborates on fibre-prestressing techniques based on elastically (EPPMC) and viscoelastically (VPPMC) prestressed polymer matrix composites, while advantages and limitations associated with EPPMC and VPPMC methods are also explained. The report shows that tensile residual stresses are induced in a polymer matrix composite during production as a result of unequal expansion, moisture absorption and chemical shrinkage; their manifestations have detrimental effects on the mechanical properties of the polymer composite. Both EPPMC and VPPMC have great influence in reducing residual stresses in the polymer matrix and thereby improving the mechanical properties of composite materials. The reports from this study provide some basis for selecting a suitable technique for prestressing as well as measuring residual stresses in composite materials.

The application of Aluminium alloys becomes significant and most wide in the field of aviation industry. Aluminium 6061, because of its pro mechanical characteristics. Graphene is one of the allotropic forms of Carbon which is abundantly available in nature. The high tensile strength and low density of graphene is the added advantage as it is used as a reinforced material with Aluminium 6061.  Graphene was found to be a more suitable reinforcing material that improves tribological properties of metal. Composite materials are mixtures of various parent materials resulting in the formation of materials having a mix of varied desired properties like low weight, larger stiffness, higher specific strength etc. The composite materials so obtained invariably have superior properties to their parental ones. So these materials become a really enticing notice for higher strengthened material for industrial sector. This paper primarily focuses on distinctive effects of utilizing Graphene as reinforcement for Al-6061in the view of tribological characteristics. Graphene has outstanding mechanical and physical properties, creating it a perfect reinforcement material for lightweight weight and high strength metal matrix composites (MMC) like Al-6061. Fabrication, being a important step, because it controls the microstructure, that successively determines the properties of the material, was conducted by stir casting. Stir casting additionally helped within the dispersion of Graphene uniformly within the metal matrix composite. To analyze the effect of tribological parameters damage resistance of the metal matrix composite, linear reciprocating tribometer was used.

Computational homogenization provides an excellent tool for the design of composite materials. In the current work, a computational approach is presented that is capable of estimating the elastic and rate-independent plastic constitutive behavior of metal matrix composites using finite element models of representative volume elements (RVEs) of the composite material. For this purpose, methodologies for the generation of three-dimensional computational microstructures, size determination of RVEs and the homogenization techniques are presented. Validation of the approach is carried out using aluminum–alumina composite samples prepared using sintering technique. Using the homogenized material response, effective constitutive models of the composite materials have been determined.

Metal Matrix nanoComposites (MMNC) refer to materials consisting of a ductile metal or alloy matrix in which some nanosized reinforcement materials is implanted. These materials combine metal and ceramic features, i.e., ductility and toughness with high strength. Thus, metal matrix nanocomposites are suitable for production of materials with high strength in shear/compression processes and high service temperature capabilities. Both Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) and Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMC) with Carbon nanoTubes (CNT) nanocomposites hold promise, but also pose challenges for real success. In the present paper deals an inclusive review of literature in effect of nanoparticles in reinforced metal matrix composites on the machinability characteristics of the composite materials.

Copper Matrix Composite

Copper slag was used to prepare copper powder by way of slurry electrolysis, and the copper powder was used to fabricate copper matrix composite materials reinforced with chemical plating surface modified alumina particulates. Alumina particulates were pretreated in ultrasonic field by chemical copper plating in order to make alumina particulates covered with a layer of copper film and form Al2O3/Cu composite powders. Copper matrix composite materials strengthened with alumina particulates were synthesized by means of pressure molding and sintering. Microstructure of copper matrix composites was researched by means of SEM. SEM analysis shows that alumina particulates distribute in the copper-based body evenly, and combine with copper closely. The effects of sintering temperature, pressure and alumina content on the compactness and hardness of copper matrix composites were studied by orthogonal tests. The compactness of composites increases with the sintering temperature and pressure increasing, and decreases with the alumina content increasing. The hardness of composite materials increases with the sintering temperature, pressure and alumina particulates increasing.
