Machining SiC fibre reinforced metal matrix composites – How do different matrix materials affect the cutting performance? (2024)
Journal Article
Zan, S., Liao, Z., Mypati, O., Axinte, D., M'Saoubi, R., Walsh, M., & Robles-Linares, J. A. (in press). Machining SiC fibre reinforced metal matrix composites – How do different matrix materials affect the cutting performance?. CIRP Annals - Manufacturing Technology, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cirp.2024.04.060

SiC fibre reinforced metal matrix composites find widespread application but show major machining difficulties due to significant variations in constituents' properties. In this sense, while the SiC fibre plays significant strengthening effects, the...

Modelling and experimental study of laser-assisted milling of fibre reinforced SiC/Ti-6Al-4V metal matrix composite (2023)
Journal Article
Mypati, O., Panzer, J., Robles-Linares, J. A., Zan, S., Liao, Z., & Axinte, D. (2024). Modelling and experimental study of laser-assisted milling of fibre reinforced SiC/Ti-6Al-4V metal matrix composite. Materials and Design, 237, Article 112552. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2023.112552

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) offer unique advantageous mechanical properties by strengthening a ductile metal matrix with a ceramic reinforcement (e.g., Ti6Al-4 V/SiCf). However, their heterogeneous composition poses machining challenges including...
