“…The p-value of all the models is lower than 0.05 proves that the model is well thought-out satisfactory at the 95 per cent confidence level. If R 2 value convergences towards unity then the response model gives better results and there subsist not as much of difference among predicted and calculated data (Poojary et al, 2018;Kumar et al, 2016;Canute and Majumder, 2018;Reddy et al, 2018). MRR depict economic characteristic of machining and moreover the rate of production.…”

Purpose Nowadays, the applications of metal matrix composites are tremendously increasing in engineering fields. Consequently, the demand for precise machining of composites has also grown enormously. The purpose of this paper is to reduce production cost and simultaneously improve desired product quality through optimal parameter setting using WASPAS and MOORA. Design/methodology/approach Metal matrix composites were fabricated using stir casting process, with aluminum 6063 as matrix and titanium carbide as reinforcement. Fabricated composite samples were machined on medium duty lathe using cemented carbide tool. All the experiments were carried out based on Box–Behnken design. Comparison of multi objective optimization based on ratio analysis and weighted aggregated sum product assessment in optimizing four parameters, namely, “cutting speed,” “feed rate,” “depth of cut” and “reinforcement weight percent of composite samples”; evaluating their influence on material removal rate, cutting force and surface roughness were carried out. Findings The output achieved by both MOORA and WASPAS are in similar MCDM) techniques in the selection of machining parameters. Practical implications The results obtained in the present paper will be helpful for decision makers in manufacturing industries, who work in metal cutting area, to select the suitable levels for the parameters by implementing the MCDM techniques. Originality/value The novelty of this paper is making an attempt to select better MCDM technique based on the comparison of results obtained for the individual technique.

This study explores the advancement of aluminum-based composites through the integration of fly ash and silicon carbide (SiC) reinforcement via stir casting. The process involves melting the alloy in a crucible within a muffle furnace at 700°C, gradually introducing fly ash and SiC particles while stirring at 450 rpm for 12 minutes to ensure uniform dispersion. The addition of 5% SiC and 2.5% fly ash led to significant improvements in multiple mechanical properties.Tensile strength experienced a remarkable enhancement of approximately 19.56%, while hardness showcased a substantial increase of about 34.67%. Furthermore, fatigue strength demonstrated a notable improvement of approximately 26.87%, and wear resistance exhibited a significant enhancement of approximately 31.45%. These enhancements underscore the efficacy of integrating fly ash and SiC reinforcement, highlighting the potential for advanced aluminum composites with superior mechanical properties. This approach presents a promising avenue for enhancing material performance, with implications for diverse industrial applications requiring durability, strength, and wear resistance.

This study aims to investigate the effect of fly ash addition on the mechanical and tribological properties of Al 1100 alloy. Fly ash, a waste by-product from automobile rubbers, was added to Al 1100 at different weight percentages. This study investigates the effect of fly ash content and sintering temperature on the mechanical properties and wear behavior of Al 1100-fly ash composites using the Taguchi method. The composites were fabricated through powder metallurgy, with fly ash content ranging from 0–15% and sintering temperature varied between 500°C and 700°C. Tensile and hardness tests were carried out, and the wear behavior was evaluated using the pin-on-disk method. The results showed that the addition of fly ash significantly improved the hardness of the composites. The highest hardness was observed at 9–10% fly ash content and sintering temperature of 600°C. The tensile strength of the composites was also enhanced with the addition of fly ash. The highest tensile strength was observed at 9% fly ash content and a sintering temperature of 650°C. The wear behavior of the composites was evaluated using the Taguchi method, and the results showed that fly ash content had the most significant effect on the wear resistance of the composites. The wear resistance improved with increasing fly ash content, with the highest wear resistance observed at 9% fly ash content and a sintering temperature of 700°C. The Taguchi method identified the optimal process parameters to obtain the best combination of mechanical and tribological properties. The present study demonstrates the potential of fly ash as a low-cost and sustainable reinforcement material for Al 1100 alloy. In conclusion, the Taguchi method was an effective tool for optimizing the mechanical properties and wear behavior of Al 1100-fly ash composites. The results suggest that fly ash can be used as a reinforcement in Al 1100 to enhance its mechanical properties and wear resistance, making it a promising material for various industrial application.
