  Evaluation of Mechanical Behaviour of Tungsten Carbide and Magnesium Reinforced Aluminium Matrix Composites

  By Avishek Nath, Sourav Debnath, Jayita Pal, Krishna Kumar Jha, Soumyajit Roy

  Abstract: With industries like automotive and aerospace also being more inclined on the lightweight material and strength that is much substantial, the aluminium-based metal matrix composite has become a major focus of interest. This paper examines the influence of addition of tungsten carbide (WC) and magnesium (Mg) particles on the mechanical characteristics of Al6063 aluminium alloy. The crucible casting technique was made in two composite compositions 2.5 percent and 5 percent …
