...Sinem Aktaş; Ege Anıl Diler Nano-aluminum powders and nano-ZrO 2 reinforcement particles were mechanically milled and hot-pressed to produce Al–ZrO 2 nanocomposites. Microstructure and mechanical properties of Al–ZrO 2 nanocomposites were investigated using scanning electron microscope (SEM...

... improvement in both tensile strength, ductility, and work of fracture (54% increment). An attempt is made to correlate the tensile response of composites with their microstructural characteristics. magnesium nanocomposite mechanical behavior microstructure solidification In view...

...). The surface of the nanocomposite was scanned by the AFM during intermittent tensile testing, and micro/nanoscale deformation was observed. The MWCNT reinforced nanocomposite exhibited a 23% increase in the measured elastic modulus compared with the pure epoxy. The elastic moduli of the nanocomposite were also...

...Ardeshir H. Tehrani; Rashid K. Abu Al-Rub In this study, damage evolution in a nanocomposite containing the polymethyl methacrylate polymer (PMMA) embedded with silicate nanoclay particles is simulated by using a nonlinear viscoelastic, viscoplastic, and viscodamage constitutive model...

...Sanjay Kumar Thakur; Khin Sandar Tun; Manoj Gupta The present study reports a unique tensile response of pure aluminum triggered due to the presence of SiC particles at nanolength scale. Al/SiC nanocomposites were synthesized by using energy efficient microwave assisted powder metallurgy route...
