Synthesis and Characterization of Metal Matrix Composite and Analysis Superplastic Forming Process

Mechanical Engineering

Superplastic forming (SPF) process is an important advanced manufacturing method that has the benefit of certain materials capability to undergo large strains to failure when deformed at prominent temperature and at lesser strain rates. The alloys of Aluminium can be formed into complex shapes by super plastic forming, a process that employs common metal working techniques. Present trend of the cost reduction, durability, reliability, and weight reduction with excellent toughness, resistance to corrosion in the field of automobile, aircraft structure and naval structure has created major impact on the engineering industries. Some alloys and compound metals can satisfy to some extent, but there are some constraints and limitations. Whereas, the ceramic reinforced composite materials have relevant properties to satisfy the above requirements. Composites are finding variety of application as structural material and for assembly of composite structure in which fastening is widely practiced
