  Aluminum Metal Matrix Composites (AMMCs) have continually generated a lot of interest due to the versatility of their applications such as in aerospace, automobile, marine, sports and recreation industries; due to having their outstanding properties of high strength-to-weight-ratio, superior wear resistance, controlled coefficient of thermal expansion, higher fatigue resistance and better stability at elevated temperatures. Even though; AMMCs are the most familiar materials in various applications, the cost of reinforcement materials and manufacturing processes are considered critical problems. Additionally, the mechanical properties such as impact and compressive strength correlated with the uniform distribution of particulates were not well studied. Therefore, this research work mainly focused on the development and characterization of an aluminum metal matrix with reinforced Bamboo.. Read More»
