Effect of residual stress on the mechanical strength in Al Beryl composites subjected to extrusion process by K.G. Sagar, P. SampthKumaran

“…Among them, creep and fatigue have been addressed in the literature for Aluminum based alloys and composites, but Residual Stress (RS) affecting mechanical properties are less cited especially for Aluminum Beryl Composites and further work needs to be undertaken and discussed.Hence, this particular work addresses the onset of Residual Stress (RS) measurements done using X-ray diffraction technique in aluminum beryl composites with Beryl content kept at 0, 2, 4 and 6 wt% and subjected to extrusion process and relating this to mechanical strength evaluated using UTM (Universal Testing Machine). By doing this, a good correlation among RS, strength, microstructure and hardness are evolved. …”
