Experimental Investigation of Mechanical Properties of Aluminium Based Metal Matrix Composite Reinforced With Sic & Al2O3

Silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites have been developed over past few decades, owing to their excellent mechanical properties like Tensile strength, Hardness, Microstructure and Wear resistance. Thus, the silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites are expected to have many applications in aerospace, aircraft, automobile and electronic industries. In this study, aluminum metal matrix composites containing several weight percentages of reinforcement particles were prepared by using stir casting. The experiments were performed on different composition of silicon carbide powder in the composite. The study presents the results of experimental investigation on mechanical behavior of silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminum matrix.

Computer Aided Engineering Analysis Of Piston With ANSYS Through Structural Analysis

Now a days, due to the increased use of automobile demands of engine is increased. Due to which the demands of engine component is high. Piston is one of the most important component of engine. In this we study to design a piston of suitable design using three different materials and then structural analysis is performed to analyse the stress distribution over the piston using FEA (finite element analysis). Pistons of material is designed using materials properties on CREO Parametric and then the whole design is imported to ANSYS software where the structural analysis of the piston is performed by applying the boundary conditions i.e pressure. After this the equivalent stress, strain and deformation are analysed at the real engine conditions. The material is Cast iron FG200. The main objective is to investigate and analyse the stress distribution over the piston at real engine condition during combustion process.
