The effect of erosion on the economy is widely acknowledged, with solid particle (SPE) being recognized as one most significant forms resulting from collision particles materials. While studying and comprehending can be challenging, researchers have dedicated their efforts to this field devised models anticipate rate material elimination surface an object, based material's response impact. Most...

al-sic composites are among the most demanding metal matrix composites due to their excellent strength, good ductility, good corrosion resistance, low coefficient of thermal expansion and reasonable price. manufacturing of cast metal matrix composites usually involves some problems such as inhomogeneous distribution of the particles due to poor wetability of ceramics to molten alloys, porosity ...

The physical and chemical properties of the materials are generally determined by their microstructure and main components. In this paper, the Hap/Cs-Cmc composite materials with different mass ratios were prepared for the first time through liquid co-precipitation method. The microstructure, phase and performance of the composite materials were investigated by FT-IR, XRD, TG-DTA, SEM, and EDS ...

Purpose: This paper presents an efficient and reliable swarm intelligence-based approach, namely particle swarm optimization [PSO] technique, to optimize the hardness and the parameters that affect the hardness in the Ni-Diamond composite coatings. Design/methodology/approach: Particle swarm optimizers are inherently distributed algorithms, in which the solution for a problem emerges from the i...
