Friction Stir Processing; Metal Matrix Composite; Mechanical properties
Abstract :
[en] A new solid-state process developed recently on the same principles as Friction Stir Welding (FSW), Friction Stir Processing appear as a very promising technique for the production of metal matrix composites and for tailoring materials properties. In the present work, this process has been applied to two different composite systems: (i) magnesium-matrix composites reinforced with carbon fibers, and (ii) copper-matrix composites reinforced with Y2O3 powder. Process optimization and mechanical properties of the composites are discussed in both systems.
