Energy-efficient method for developing in-situ Al-Cu metal matrix composites using microwave sintering and friction stir processing

The problems associated with the fabrication of in situ metal matrix composites (MMC) by conventional methods can be avoided by using microwave sintering and friction stirring in combination. The current study investigates the mechanical and electrical properties of pure aluminum (Al-100 wt%) and Al...
