There is a massive demand for low-weight high strength materials in automotive, space aerospace, and even structural industries in this present engineering world. These industries attract composites only because of their high strength, resistance to wear, and low weight. Among these composites, metal matrix composite finds wide applications due to its elevated properties, excellent resistance property, corrosion resistance, etc. The reinforcements exist in particles, fiber, and whiskers. Among the three, particles play an important role because of their availability and wettability with the metal matrix. Additionally, among the various metal matrices such as aluminum, magnesium, copper, titanium, etc., aluminum plays a vital role among metal matrices because of its cost, availability in abundance, and castability. Stir casting is the most inexpensive and straightforward composite fabrication technique among the prevailing techniques. Even though so many factors contribute to the elevated property of composites, metal matrix, and reinforcement phase, uniform distribution and wettability are essential factors among all the other factors. This review aims to develop a composite with elevated property in a cost-effective manner. Cost includes metal matrix, reinforcement, and processing technique. Various works have been tabulated to achieve the above objective, and analysis was carried out on tensile strength concerning microstructure. This review paper explores the challenges in composite fabrication and finds a solution to overcome them.

“…[5][6][7][8][9][10].Vibration damping is one of the important requirements of the material when using it as machine base, frame, mountings and other supports. If the material's resistance to vibration or absorption of vibration energy is predominant, the ill effects in the mechanical systems will be greatly minimized [11][12][13][14].Vibration properties like damping factor and natural frequency of the Aluminium based composites were investigated by many researchers and reported that the reinforcements enhances the natural frequency and damping factor [13][14][15][16][17]. Mechanical behaviour like tensile, compression and flexural behaviour is analyzed with tungsten carbide reinforced aluminium composites [2] but no one reported wear and vibration analysis of tungsten carbide reinforcements with AA6061 aluminium alloy.…”

In this research, vibration damping property and dry sliding wear resistance of tungsten carbide reinforced aluminium AA6061 composites were investigated. The fabrications of test specimen were carried out using stir casting method. Three samples were taken for study with percentage of reinforcements as 0%, 4% and 8% of tungsten carbide by volume fraction. The samples are cut and machined to cylindrical pin as per ASTM standard for pin-on-disc wear analysis. Another set of samples with rectangular cross section is used as beam for experimental modal analysis using Impact hammer test to study the damping factor and natural frequency. Based on the test results, it was found that there is minimum wear resistance in reinforced alloy when compared to unreinforced alloy and also reinforced alloy had improved coefficient of friction. From the impact hammer test, the result shows that reinforced alloy had high natural frequency and improved damping factor when compared with unreinforced alloy. The hard ceramic tungsten carbide particulate improves the resistance to wear as well as improved the damping behaviour. This research can be helpful in many industrial application, heavy machineries, automotive applications This material can be developed to use as machine base, chassis where wear resistance and vibration damping needs to predominantly monitored.

“…Composite laminates have been extensively used in aerospace [ 1 , 2 ], marine [ 3 , 4 ], and automotive components [ 5 ] due to their high Young’s modulus and strength combined with low specific weight [ 6 ]. The weak point of these laminar materials is their poor interlaminar strength that can lead to critical delamination defects, and therefore significant losses of stiffness and strength in this type of laminar material [ 7 ].…”

This paper proposes a new vibration-based structural health monitoring method for the identification of delamination defects in composite bulkheads used in small-length fiber-based ships. The core of this work is to find out if the variations of vibration energy can be efficiently used as a key performance indicator for the detection and quantification of delamination defects in marine composite bulkheads. For this purpose, the changes of vibrational energy exerted by delamination defects in sandwich and monolithic composite panel bulkheads with different types of delamination phenomenon are investigated using a non-destructive test. Experiments show that the overall vibration energy of the bulkheads is directly dependent on the damage conditions of the specimens and therefore, the variations of this parameter are a good indicator of the incorporation of delamination defects in composite bulkheads. Additionally, the overall vibration energy changes also give interesting information about the severity of the delamination defect in the panels. Hence, this methodology based on vibratory energy can be used to accurately determine delamination defects in medium-sized composite bulkheads with the advantages of being a simple and cost-effective approach. The findings of this research possess important applications for the identification of delamination failures in composite components such as bulkheads, turbine blades, and aircraft structures, among others.
