1st Edition
Metal Matrix Composites Fabrication, Production and 3D Printing
Metal Matrix Composites (MMC) are materials that can be tailored to achieve specific properties, influenced by fabrication techniques. "Metal Matrix Composites: Fabrication, Production and 3D Printing" cover various aspects of fabrication, production and new manufacturing techniques including research and development. It includes conventional fabrication techniques and methods required to synthesize micro/nano MMCs. Multivariate approach required to optimize production including development of complex geometries is explained as well.
Features:
- Provides in-depth information on fabrication, production, and advanced manufacturing of Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs).
- Details about matrix, reinforcement, and application-oriented fabrication processes.
- Emphasizes on advance processing methods like metal 3D printing, additive and subtractive manufacturing techniques.
- Provides comprehensive record of fabrication development in MMCs.
- Focus on materials and application-based processing techniques.
This book aims at graduate students, researchers and professionals in micro/nano science and technology, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, metallurgy, and composites.
