Development of aluminium-based composites reinforced with steel and graphite particles: structural, mechanical and wear characterization

Apparent limitations in toughness and ductility of ceramic reinforced aluminium matrix composites have prompted considerations of metallic reinforcements. In the present study, the structural characteristics, mechanical and wear behaviour of stir cast Al-Mg-Si alloy-based composites reinforced with...
