The research work comprehensively evaluates and compares the strengthening efficiency of
multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs), two of the …

Fatigue crack growth mechanisms of as-cast and hot-rolled TiB 2-reinforced steel matrix
composites (SMCs) fabricated by eutectic solidification are systematically investigated …

The deformation behaviours of two steel matrix composites (SMCs) strengthened by different
volume fractions of the TiB 2 ceramic phase were investigated in this work. When the volume …

The initiation of fatigue cracks in a TiB 2-reinforced high-modulus, low-density steel was
revealed by in-situ scanning electron microscopy for the first time. The results show that the …

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effective properties of Fe–TiB 2 composites
obtained after hot or cold rolling. The elastic moduli of both hot and cold rolled composites …

The fatigue crack propagation mechanism of a TiB 2-reinforced high-modulus steel
fabricated by eutectic solidification process was investigated for the first time. The fatigue …

Strengthening in metal matrix composites (MMCs) is primarily due to the load transfer from
the compliant matrix to the stiff reinforcement. While internal load transfer has been studied …

Friction Stir Processing (FSP) was used to fabricate metal matrix composite, based on steel
and reinforced with nano-sized yttrium oxide powder. The powder was packed in a narrow …

This study explores the distinctive characteristics of Steel Matrix Composites (SMCs)
reinforced with TiB2, concentrating on their hardening behavior during simple shear tests …

Composite materials are of interest since many years as they are used in numerous
engineering fields. Metal matrix composites are also studied from fabrication and analysis …
