“…Aluminum metal matrix composites (AMCs) reinforced ceramic particulate are used due to their wide range of engineering applications such as low coefficient of thermal expansion, high specific modulus, high specific strength, and good wear resistance. [1,2] The enhancement of the mechanical characteristics of AMCs is significantly influenced by the kinds of the ceramic reinforcements. Combining both the high strength of the hard reinforcements and the high tensile strength of the Al-based matrix, AMCs offer superior performance.…”

Simultaneous monitoring of electrophysiology and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could guide the innovative diagnosis and treatment of various neurodegenerative diseases that were previously impossible. However, this technique is difficult because the existing metal‐based implantable neural interface for electrophysiology is not free from signal distortions due to its intrinsic magnetic susceptibility while performing an MRI of the implanted area of the neural interface. Moreover, brain tissue heating from neural implants generated by the radiofrequency field from MRI poses potential hazards for patients. Previous studies with soft polymer‐based electrode arrays that overcome this issue provided relatively suitable MRI compatibility but did not guarantee high‐resolution electrophysiological signal acquisition and stimulation performance. Here, we introduce MRI compatible, optically transparent flexible implantable device capable of electrophysiological multichannel mapping and electrical stimulation. Using the device, we confirmed neuropathic pain (NP) relief with a 30‐channel electrophysiological mapping of the somatosensory area before and after motor cortex stimulation (MCS) in allodynia rats after noxious stimulation. Additionally, we demonstrated artifact‐free manganese‐enhanced MRI of dramatic relief of pain‐related region activity by MCS. Furthermore, artifact‐free optogenetics with transgenic mice was also investigated by recording light‐evoked potentials. These results suggested a promising neuro‐prosthetic for analyzing and modulating spatiotemporal neurodynamic without MRI or optical modality resolution constraints.This article is protected by copyright.

“…Aluminum matrix composites with silicon carbide reinforcement (SiCp/Al) have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals [ 1 ]. They have characteristics that include high specific strength, high specific modulus, wear resistance, strong electrical and thermal conductivity, radiation resistance, and a low coefficient of thermal expansion when compared to common metals.…”

In recent years, medium- and low-volume fraction silicon carbide particle-reinforced aluminum matrix composites (SiCp/Al) have increasingly become a key material in the aerospace industry. Force prediction and material removal mechanism analysis of milling SiCp/Al are necessary to improve the surface integrity of products. An orthogonal experiment of SiCp/2009Al with a volume fraction of 20% was carried out, and the effect of the milling parameters on milling force was studied with the input parameters of milling speed, feed rate, and milling depth. Thereby, the empirical force model of milling SiCp/2009Al is established by fitting the experiential data based on the multiple linear regression analysis methods. Moreover, the effects of the milling parameters on the force were analyzed. Finally, the material removal mechanism of milling SiCp/Al is analyzed based on dislocation theory. The analyzed results reveal that the removal mechanism of the SiCp/Al composites includes plastic deformation of the aluminum matrix, cutting of particles, fragmentation, and deboning. Based on dislocation theory and maximum undeformed thickness theory, the effect of cutting parameters on the form of material removal was analyzed, which serves as a guide for selecting appropriate machining parameters to obtain improved machining quality of SiCp/Al composites.

“…From Figure 15a, it is possible to observe the curves of (real) stress vs. (real) strain which confirm the similarity between the two alloys. Material data for AA 6061 were derived from [36], despite this material representing one of the most investigated aluminum alloys and very accurate information already available in the literature ( [36][37][38][39][40]).…”

The study of the behavior of thin metal sheets subjected to external loads has always been a matter of great interest due to its numerous theoretical and practical implications. The present analysis aims to investigate how to improve the predictions offered by a numerical model based on the finite element method by considerations on the material properties. Specifically, different modeling alternatives are compared, assessing these choices both with the similar assumptions made by other researchers in the past and with measurements from our own experimentation. The case under consideration consists of a slender, aluminum crash-box structure (a bumper) with a truncated pyramid shape subjected to a concentrated load on the top (axial crushing) up to a 46% reduction in its height. The system is characterized by high deformations (>15%) and large displacements. This presents a complex situation with various nonlinear effects, where the chosen assumptions in material modeling can have significant implications for the results, both in terms of accuracy and computational time. Among the investigated aspects, of no less importance are those related to the appropriate modeling of the elasto-plastic-hardening behavior of the metallic material.
