A Review of Recent Developments in Solid State-Based Metal Additive Manufacturing: Friction Stir Additive Technique
Abstract: In the age of machines, the whole industry needs light-weight and high strength for lighter devices, machines, etc. The core aerospace industry needs lighter materials for satellites and rockets. Friction Stir Additive Technology (FSAT)represents an innovative approach aimed at leveraging the principles of layered build (AM) layer by layer using solid state (FSW) friction stir welding technology. These represent a particular class of friction-based additive technology (FAT) and can easily …

Microstructural and Hardness Study of A390/20wt.% SiC Functionally Graded Metal Matrix Composite
Abstract: Functionally graded materials are the upcoming new class of advanced materials, which exhibit gradual change in the microstructure and the composition in a definite direction, and hence variation in functional performance within a part. Functionally graded metal matrix composites (FGMMC) are FGM with metal and ceramic constituents. Aluminum-Silicon alloys are well-known for their unique combination of desirable characteristics, which includes excellent castability and less density combined with good mechanical properties. …
