  Optimizing Parameters for Dry Sliding Wear Control in Stir-Cast AA7050/SiC Composites

  By Varshitha Kothapalli, Ramatenki Chinna, Sireesha Koneru, V. Viswanath Shenoi, Boggarapu Nageswara Rao

  Abstract: Using a pin-on-disc tribometer, this study examined the dry sliding wear behavior of AA7050/SiC composites. The production of this metal matrix composite was achieved through the stir-casting process, which involved an initial step of melting the AA7050 alloy, followed by the careful introduction of silicon carbide (SiC) particles, stirring to achieve uniform dispersion, and finally, casting the molten mixture. Wear rate (WR) was determined by three operational parameters: SiC reinforcement …

  Prediction of temperatures and residual stresses during FSW of AA2024 and AA7075 with copper using HYPERWELD software

  By Pradeep Kumar Mouria, Dr. Ranganath M. Singari, Dr. Reeta Wattal

  Abstract: This paper investigates the temperature at different workpiece and tool pin sections. In this investigation, various materials are utilized, for example, AA7050, AA2024, and Copper, for other process parameters. Tool rotational speed, tool tilt angle, and welding speed are process parameters. Thermal distribution results are examined with the assistance of these process parameters. Altair’s Hyper Weld, a preeminent computer-aided engineering (CAE) application for the simulation of friction stir welding, has …
