Abstract:

In the present work, Fe-Cu based alloys with different compositions have been obtained by using Powder metallurgy (PM). These alloys were created with the purpose of increasing mechanical properties of the parts. Nevertheless, little have been published, once this is a matter of industrial interest. In this work, samples of Fe_100-xCu_x(x=0.40, 0.55, 0.70, 0.85 and 1) alloys were processed by cold pressing at 10 MPa, followed by sintering at 1250 C°. Structures formed during sintering were studied by EDS. Microstructural aspects were observed by MEB. Densification and microhardness tests were also performed.

Prediction of effective properties for multiphase composite is very important not only to analysis and optimization of material performance, but also to new material designs. In this paper, the effective elastic property of some complex particulate composites is analyzed and compared with numerical results, demonstrating the validity of the proposed approach. We propose the equivalent morphology concept for the numerical homogenization of random composites. In this study, this concept is extended for complex material. A home script based on Python codes is made to automate the generating of Representative volume element with various volume fraction.

In this paper, the study of precipitation reaction in the aluminum alloy known as AGS 6101. For the case of Cold drawn wires process in the open air space and at room temperature for two years, we inspect first the presence of precipitates in the microstructure and study the effect of heat treatment on the activation of this phenomenon [1]. The second objective of this work is to see the effect of natural and thermal aging on the microstructural evolution of cold-drawn aluminum wires (AGS) 6101 [2-5]. The characterization methods used in this work are optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction.
